SUDA LTD: APPENDIX 4C FOR FOURTH QUARTER FY2017 PERTH, AUSTRALIA - 27 July 2017: SUDA LTD (ASX: SUD), a leader in oro-mucosal drug delivery, today released its Appendix 4C for the consolidated Group for the fourth quarter of FY2017.

Receipts from customers for the period were $1.8 million, an increase of 21% on the corresponding quarter in FY2016.

SUDA's subsidiary company, Westcoast Surgical & Medical Supplies, has continued to grow, having been awarded several new contracts in the 2017 financial year, including the supply of medical products to oil rigs, ships, custom vessels and floatels.

The fourth quarter receipts were also boosted by a payment from Pfizer Consumer Healthcare in relation to the feasibility and option agreement signed in April 2017. Under the terms of this agreement, SUDA was paid to formulate two widely-used OTC molecules into oro-mucosal sprays. Pfizer has an option to negotiate with SUDA for a global commercial licence to these oral sprays.

Operating costs in the three-month period were $1.3 million, a decrease of approximately 18% from the third quarter. Overall for the period, net cash outflow from operating activities was $0.4 million. The cash position as at 31 March 2017 was $1.8 million.

In the fourth quarter, SUDA received net cash from financing activities of $1.5 million from an over-subscribed placement as announced on 7 April 2017. The Company also rolled over the majority of its Convertible Notes and received commitments for additional Convertible Note funding as announced on 3 April 2017.

Following the end of the period, the Company entered into a licence and supply agreement with Teva Pharmaceuticals for SUDA's novel ZolpiMist™ oral spray of zolpidem tartrate to treat insomnia in multiple countries. Under the terms of the agreement, SUDA receives an upfront payment of US$300,000 (approx. A$400,000) and is entitled to receive further licence fees and milestone payments as well as royalties on sales and handling fees for supply of product.

SUDA's CEO, Mr Stephen Carter, commented: "Our subsidiary Westcoast continues to expand and grow. The fourth quarter was one of steady progress, culminating in our largest licensing deal to date with a top-20 pharmaceutical company, Teva, which we announced on 5 July 2017. I look forward to updating shareholders with more news over the coming weeks and months as we continue to focus on achieving our strategic goals and increasing shareholder value."
