AFT wishes to clarify the comment attributed to Dr Atkinson that AFT would return to
profitability in May when it releases its 2019 annual results. Dr Atkinson in fact commented
that AFT is expected, as previously noted to the market on several occasions, to return to
EBITDA profitability for FY19. This is likely to be confirmed to the market upon release of
AFT’s annual results for FY19 on 22 May 2019.
