Underlying organic growth at constant rates of foreign exchange was approximately 8%, with a modest gain arising on foreign exchange contributing approximately 3%. Revenues from SI branded products increased by 15% to £5.35m (2016: £4.66m), aided by the move to direct sales in the UK following the acquisition of Elemental Healthcare. Gross margins continued to strengthen to 42.5% (2016: 33.8%) as a consequence of enhanced end-to-end margin on home sales and operational gearing. The Group delivered a 55% increase in Adjusted EBITDA (stated before exceptional costs and amortisation relating to acquisition, and share based payment costs) to £2.22m (2016: £1.43m). The adjusted operating margin was 13.0% (2016: 8.1%), and adjusted profit before taxation amounted to £1.10m (Reported PBT: £0.54m, 2016: £0.28m). The net profit and total comprehensive income for the year amounted to £0.63m, (2016: £0.72m), resulting in net earnings per share of 0.10p (2016: 0.15p). Adjusted basic earnings per share (being Profit after tax stated before exceptional costs and amortisation relating to acquisition, and share based payment costs divided by weighted average number of shares) amounted to 0.19p, an increase of 26.7% over the prior year. At the end of the year, the Group had net borrowings (cash balances net of loan and financing commitments) of £0.73m (2016: net cash of £0.72m). The Group had aggregate available borrowing facilities of £3.00m, of which £2.50m was drawn down in consideration of the acquisition, and remains in compliance with all financial covenants. I am pleased to report on a year of positive progress for Surgical Innovations Group plc, with strong financial results and the transformational acquisition of Elemental Healthcare Limited providing an exciting platform for the future. Strategy The Group specialises in the design, manufacture, sale and distribution of innovative, high quality medical products, primarily for use in minimally invasive surgery. Our product and business development is guided and supported by a key group of nationally and internationally renowned surgeons across the spectrum of minimally invasive surgical activity. We design, manufacture and source our branded port access systems, surgical instruments and retraction devices which are sold directly in the UK home market through Elemental Healthcare, and exported widely through a global network of trusted distribution partners. Many of our products in this field are based on a “resposable” concept, in which the products are part re-usable, part disposable, offering a high-quality solution at a cost that is competitive against fully disposable alternatives, and significantly reduces clinical waste. Elemental Healthcare also has exclusive UK distribution rights to a select group of specialist products employed in laparoscopy, bariatric and metabolic surgery, hernia repair and breast reconstruction. In addition, we design and develop medical devices for carefully selected OEM partners, and have also collaborated with a major UK industrial partner to provide precision engineering solutions to complex problems outside the medical arena. We aim to provide a broad portfolio of products, which are either developed in-house or through partnerships and further acquisition activity. 1 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 2017Chairman’s Statement final quarter of the year following the acquisition of Novadaq Technologies, Inc by Stryker Corporation. Following termination, Elemental Healthcare has received payment in lieu of notice which is sufficient to compensate for the effect of any profit foregone to the end of 2018. Since the end of the year, a new three year agreement has been signed with Bariatric Solutions GmbH for the exclusive UK distribution of devices for the treatment of obesity, and a three year extension has been signed with Microline Surgical Inc. for the exclusive UK distribution of a complementary range of instruments for minimally invasive surgery. Current Trading and Outlook Total revenue for the current year to date is well ahead of the corresponding period last year as expected, although on a like-for-like basis (adjusting for the effect of acquisition) revenue has been affected by constraints experienced in NHS hospitals in the UK. It was widely reported during January that winter illnesses caused most UK hospitals to reach abnormally high capacity levels, resulting in the cancellation of many elective surgical procedures. There are now clear signs of a return to a more normal level of activity, however we have experienced some modest headwinds in the first quarter. Meanwhile, there are further opportunities to enhance the scope of our UK distribution business, and our international business has started the year on a more positive note. Accordingly, we remain optimistic that the prospects for the year as a whole remain consistent with our earlier expectations. Looking to the future, we continue to anticipate numerous opportunities to enhance the depth and range of products we offer through our internal development programme, and through further corporate activity Acquisition of Elemental Healthcare Limited On 1 August 2017, we completed the acquisition of Elemental Healthcare, a leading distributor of innovative medical products to the NHS and UK private hospitals from its two principals, Adam Power and David Marsh. These products span a range of specialised clinical disciplines covering laparoscopy (including SI branded products), bariatric and metabolic surgery, hernia repair, and breast and abdominal wall reconstruction. In the most recent set of published financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2017, Elemental Healthcare reported revenues of £6.5m and an adjusted operating profit of £1.10m (stated before exceptional non recurring bad debt costs and directors remuneration). Consideration for the transaction amounted to a gross amount of £9.38m including a payment to settle a liability of the vendors. On a net basis consideration paid was £9.14m including the issue of shares to the vendors of £1.88m at 3p per share. The remainder of the consideration and costs associated with the deal were financed by an institutional placing of £5.50m (before costs) at a price of 3p per share, and a new £3m facility with Yorkshire Bank of five years duration. The integration of Elemental Healthcare into the Group has now been fully implemented, with all commercial and marketing activity coming under the new operation, led by David Marsh and Adam Power. A programme of meetings and visits to all major overseas distributors has been carried out, and plans for future growth agreed. The acquisition has been well received by third party manufacturers served in the UK by Elemental Healthcare. One distribution agreement was terminated in accordance with its terms during the Nigel Rogers Executive Chairman 12 March 2018 2 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 2017Operating and Financial Review Melanie Ross Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer Overview Following the acquisition of Elemental Healthcare on 1 August 2017, Group sales grew 44% to £8.75m (2016: £6.09m) and adjusted EBITDA increased 55% to £2.22m (2016: £1.43m) with £1.73m of that being on a like-for-like basis. Profit before tax, amortisation of intangible assets created on the acquisition of Elemental Healthcare, exceptional items and share based payments (“adjusted profit before tax”) increased 266% to £1.10m (2016: £0.30m). On the same basis, diluted EPS increased 26.7% to 0.19p (2016: 0.15p). The acquisition of Elemental Healthcare was partly financed through a new £2.5m term loan of which £2.42m remained outstanding at the year end and the Company had available cash resources of £1.71m (2016: £0.78m). Leverage at 31 December 2017 was comfortably below the bank covenant of two times adjusted EBITDA at 1.11. Revenue Revenue increased 44% to £8.75m (2016: £6.09m). The acquisition of Elemental Healthcare delivered £2.49m of sales representing 23% of the total group turnover (after intercompany sales elimination) with the remaining portfolio of SI Branded product and OEM sales performing strongly and delivering a sales increase of 11% to £6.73m (2016: £6.09m). Through the new board appointments, the Group has restructured its commercial activities to best utilise the commercial skills of the new directors. £m 2017 2016 %Change 5.35 SI Brand Distribution 1.80 1.60 OEM* 8.75 Total 4.66 - 1.43 6.09 +15% - +12% +44% *PE has been incorporated into OEM 3 Surgical Innovations branded sales performed strongly in the year with like-for-like growth of 10%. The strongest area of growth was in the UK home market with sales up 39% to £1.16m (2016: £0.84m). Europe also performed strongly and the US achieved growth of 6% in the year. Through the acquisition of Elemental Healthcare, the Group now also has the exclusive distribution rights to a range of premium medical devices which further complement the laparoscopic range of ports and instrumentation within the Surgical Innovations Branded portfolio. These products offer a wider field of use including bariatric and metabolic surgery, breast and abdominal wall reconstruction and abdominal hernia repair. OEM (including Precision Engineering) grew strongly in the year to £1.60m (2016: £1.43m), particularly with our partners in the US for whom we manufacture device components, typically valves or instrumentation. Sales of the Fix8 device for Advanced Medical Solutions Group plc continued to grow year on year, despite end user sales being restricted due to product enhancing design modifications currently being made to the existing product. The Group undertook two further Precision Engineering projects in the period with the second project expected to complete in HY1 2018. Group sales were enhanced by approximately £0.15m due to movements in foreign exchange in the year, predominantly US dollar, although the effect on operating profit was largely offset by the effect of some purchases denominated in both Euros and US dollars. The exposure to foreign exchange movements has altered following acquisition due to Elemental Healthcare making purchases in both US Dollars and Euros, as well as sterling. It is expected that a natural hedge will occur for US Dollar sales and purchases and the Group has made steps to move European distributors of SI branded products to Euro price lists in Q2 2018 to offset the Euro mismatch risk. Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 2017Adjusted EBITDA The adjusted EBITDA is a key performance measure of the business. The Group uses this as a proxy for understanding the underlying performance of the Group. This measure also excludes the items that distorts comparability. Year 2017 2018 2019 2020 Operating and Financial Review £000’s £327 £446 £351 £163 Adjusted EBITDA increased 55% to £2.22m (2016: £1.43m) as the impact of 44% revenue growth and a 8.7% uplift in gross margin was partially offset by increases in operating costs. Operating profit increased to £0.58m (2016: £0.47m), increasing adjusted operating margin (before deduction of exceptionals and amortisation relating to acquisition and share based payments) to 13.0% (2016: 8.1%) Gross margin improved to 42.5% in the year as like-for- like business continued to show improvements on the prior year, primarily through increased manufacturing recoveries. Following the acquisition, the addition of the Elemental Healthcare sales for the latter five months of the year also improved the overall margin. Excluding exceptional items in the year, operating expenses increased to £2.62m with the inclusion of the sales and administration costs associated with Elemental Healthcare. On a like-for-like basis, operating costs would have been £1.91m (2016: £1.59m), resulting from a decrease in capitalised R&D expense (as more time was allocated to regulatory compliance in the year), an increased amortisation charge as a full year of costs associated with Yelloport Elite were included and headcount additions in R&D and Quality. Following several months of preparation and review the Group successfully completed its transition over to a new regulatory notified body in March 2018. Capitalised development costs at 31 December 2017 had decreased to £1.45m (2016: £1.60m). Research and development expenditure continues to be incurred, and a portion has been capitalised in respect of specifically identifiable products amounting to £0.38m (2016: £0.44m). These products are due for launch in the current year. Capital expenditure on tangible assets continued to reflect a policy of required replacement only during the year at £0.25m (2016: £0.26m) and there are no major capex plans currently under consideration. Interest on bank and finance lease obligations for 2017 resulted in interest payable of £0.04m (2016: £0.19m). As the acquisition of Elemental Healthcare was partly debt funded, it is expected that finance costs will increase in 2018, partially offset by interest on positive cash balances. There were £1.29m of intangible assets created on the acquisition of Elemental Healthcare relating to the supplier base, which will be fully amortised by 2020 with the charges in the year being: Goodwill of £8.59m has been recognised in the accounts which will be subject to an impairment review annually. The group recorded a corporation tax charge of £0.08m (2016: credit of £0.44m) and a deferred tax credit of £0.12m (2016: £nil). The tax charge represents tax on Elemental Healthcare activities relating to post integration trading but overall the group continues to hold substantial tax losses on which it holds a cautious view. The Group have chosen not to recognise those losses fully. During the year the Group submitted enhanced Research and Development claims in respect of 2016, electing to exchange tax losses for cash refunds. This claim had not been settled by year end and so no refund was recognised in the accounts. This claim is expected to be significantly less than the claims recognised in 2016 of £0.44m which related to 2014 and 2015 due to the difference in available losses to exchange in the comparative periods. The build-up of trade payables and trade receivables in 2017 were as a result of the acquisition of Elemental Healthcare. Trade receivables increased to £1.61m (2016: £1.10m) and payables to £1.58m (2016: £0.34m). Inventory increased to £2.47m (2016: £1.50m) in part due to the additional inventory relating to the acquisition but also as a strategic stock build of new products to satisfy ongoing demand. This mainly related to the Yelloport Elite range of products. The Group generated cash from operations of £1.61m (2016: £2.40m) primarily as a result of the working capital movements described above. Cash used in investment was £8.34m (2016: £0.78m) resulting in a cash outflow before financing of £6.73m (2016: inflow of £2.00m). The consideration for Elemental Healthcare was a gross amount of £9.38m including an amount payable to settle a liability of the vendors. The net consideration was £9.14m. This was funded by proceeds from the issues of new ordinary shares of £5m, new term loans of £2.5m and the issue of £1.88m of shares in the company to the vendors. 4 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 2017Principal risks and uncertainties All principal risks and uncertainties are on page 8 in the Director’s report. The group uses several financial measures as performance indicators of which Adjusted EBITDA is considered to be the key measure as discussed above. Operating and Financial Review Melanie Ross Chief Financial Officer 12 March 2018 5 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 2017Directors’ Report Charmaine Day Company Secretary The Directors present their annual report, together with the audited financial statements, for the year ended 31 December 2017. Principal Activities The Company is the holding Company of a Group whose principal activities in the year involved the design, development, manufacture and sale of devices for use in minimally invasive surgery (SI) and precision engineering markets (PE). The Group sells branded products through independent healthcare distributors across the world and own label products through original equipment manufacturer (OEM) relationships. On the 1 August 2017 the Group acquired its UK healthcare distributor, Elemental Healthcare Ltd, whose principal activities are the sale of a range of healthcare products directly into the NHS and private Hospitals (Distribution). Results and Dividends The Consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the year is set out on page 14. Given the results for the financial year, the Directors do not recommend the payment of a dividend (2016: £nil). Directors The names of the current Directors, and of those who served during the year, were as follows: N F Rogers (Chair) M J McMahon M Ross P Hardy A Taylor D Marsh (appointed 1 August 2017) A Power (appointed 1 August 2017) Directors’ Interests The interests in the share capital of the Company of those Directors in office at the end of the year were as follows Ordinary shares of 1p each P Hardy M J McMahon N F Rogers M Ross A Taylor A Power D Marsh 31 December 2017 Beneficial 6,730,185 18,669,129 5,541,060 1,573,710 1,074,266 31,307,302 31,250,000 1 January 2017 Beneficial 3,561,474 18,171,396 3,471,317 605,714 672,906 - - Details of Directors’ interests in respect of share options are set out on page 37.

Other than as disclosed in note 18, no Director has an interest in any material contract, other than contracts of service and employment, to which the Group was a party. Substantial shareholdings Other than the Directors’ own holdings, the Board has been notified that, as at 1 March 2018, the following shareholders on the Company’s share register held interests of 3% or more of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company: Getz Bros. & Co.

Research and development The Group’s activities in this area have focused principally on the continuing development of innovative instruments for use in the field of MIS. Directors’ Report Employees The commitment and ability of our employees are key factors in achieving the Group’s objectives. Employment policies are based on the provision of appropriate training, whilst annual personal appraisals support skill and career development. The Board encourages management feedback at all levels to facilitate the development of the Group’s business. The Group seeks to keep its employees informed on all matters affecting them by regular management and departmental meetings. It is the Group’s policy to give full and fair consideration to all applications for employment from disabled persons having regard to their particular aptitudes and abilities and to encourage the training and career development of all personnel employed by the Group, including disabled persons. Should an employee become disabled, the Group would, where practicable, seek to continue the employment and arrange appropriate training. Corporate governance The Directors support the underlying principles of the UK Corporate Governance Code, notwithstanding that the Group is not required to comply with all of the Code’s recommendations. The Board recognises its overall responsibility for the Group’s systems of internal control and their effective operation and it has sought to comply with those provisions of the Code judged appropriate for the current size and nature of the Group, being the establishment of an Audit Committee, a Remuneration Committee and a Nominations Committee. Formally constituted Audit, Remuneration and Nominations committees, with membership comprising all Non- Executive Directors, continue to operate and are active in the conduct of internal financial control, executive performance and Board appointments respectively. Financial risk The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks as set out below with further quantitive analysis in note 14. a) Financial risk: The principal financial risk exposure relates to importing and exporting goods in US Dollars and importing goods in Euros. b) Credit risk: The Group is exposed to credit risk through offering extended credit terms to those customers operating in markets where extended payment terms are themselves taken by local government and state organisations. The Group is also exposed to credit risk through customer concentration. Both of these aspects of credit risk are managed through constant review and personal knowledge of the customer concerned. Payment plans are agreed and monitored in all such cases to minimise credit risk. c) Liquidity risk: The Group manages its liquidity needs by carefully monitoring all scheduled cash outflows. Liquidity needs are monitored in various time bands, on a day-to-day and week-to-week basis, as well as on the basis of a rolling 13 week projection. Longer-term needs are monitored as part of the Group’s regular rolling monthly re- forecasting process. Funding for long-term liquidity is secured by an adequate amount of committed credit both through working capital and asset finance facilities. d) Interest rate cash flow risk: The Group has both interest-bearing assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Interest- bearing assets include only cash and cash equivalents which are held on deposit at both fixed and floating rates. Interest-bearing liabilities include hire-purchase liabilities which are at fixed interest rates, and also bank borrowings which are at floating rates of interest. Financial risk management policies The financial risk and management policies are in note 14 on page 35. Future Developments The future developments of the Group are discussed in the strategic report. 7 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 2017Principal risks and uncertainties The management of the business and the nature of the Group’s strategy are subject to a number of risks which the Directors seek to mitigate wherever possible. The principal risks are set out below. Directors’ Report Issue Funding risk Risk and description The Group currently has a mixture of borrowings comprising a £2.5m loan, a £0.5m rolling credit facility, and £0.02m of equipment finance liabilities. The Group remains dependent upon the support of these funders and there is a risk that failure in particular to meet covenants attaching to the rolling credit facility could have severe financial consequences for the Group. Customer concentration The Group exports to over thirty countries and distributors around the world, but certain distributors are material to the financial performance and position of the Group. As disclosed in note 2 to the financial statements, one customer accounted for 14.1% of revenue in 2017 and the loss, failure or actions of this customer could have a severe impact on the Group. Mitigating actions Liquidity and covenant compliance is monitored carefully across varying time horizons to facilitate short term management and also strategic planning. This monitoring enables the management team to consider and to take appropriate actions within suitable time frames. The majority of distributors, including the most significant, are well established and their relationship with the Group spans many years. Credit levels and cash collection is closely monitored by management, and issues are quickly elevated both within the Group and with the distributor. Foreign exchange risk Regulatory approval The Group’s functional currency is UK Sterling, However it makes significant purchases in Euros and US Dollars. The US Dollars are however mitigated by US Dollar sales by creating a natural hedge, however no such hedge currently exists for Euros as minimal sales are made in this currency. The Group are looking to mitigate this risk by transferring their Euro customers onto a Euro based pricing structure which is currently set up in sterling. As an international business a significant proportion of the Group’s products require registration from national or federal regulatory bodies prior to being offered for sale. The majority of our major product lines have FDA approval in the US and we are therefore subject to their audit and inspection of our manufacturing facilities. There is no guarantee that any product developed by the Group will obtain and maintain national registration or that the Group will always pass regulatory audit of its manufacturing processes. Failure to do so could have severe consequences upon the Group’s ability to sell products in the relevant country. The Group monitors currency exposures on an on-going basis and enters into forward currency arrangements where considered appropriate to mitigate the risk of material adverse movements in exchange rates impacting upon the business. Euro and US Dollar cash balances are monitored regularly and spot rate sales into sterling are conducted when significant currency deposits have accumulated. The accounting policy for foreign exchange is disclosed in accountancy policy 1d. The Group has a dedicated Quality department which assists product development teams with support as required to minimise the risk of regulatory approval not being obtained on new products and ensures that the Group operates processes and procedures necessary to maintain relevant regulatory approvals. Whilst there is no guarantee that this will be sufficient, the Group has invested in people with the appropriate experience and skills in this area which mitigates this risk significantly. 8 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 2017Going concern The Directors have prepared forecasts for the period to March 2019, which demonstrate a positive cashflow. The Group have access to banking facilities, which comprise of a committed £0.5m revolving credit facility. Hire purchase agreements are utilised where required. The commitment of the revolving credit facility of £0.5m may be used towards meeting the Group’s general working capital and other commitments. It is subject to compliance with financial covenants which measure the ratio of cashflow to debt service and EBITDA starting quarterly from August 2017. Directors’ Report Based on the forecasts, the Board has a reasonable expectation that the Company and the Group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, considered to be at least 12 months for the date of approval from the financial statements.

The financial reporting framework that has been applied in the preparation of the Parent Company financial statements is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) including Financial Reporting Standard 101 Reduced Disclosure Framework (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). In our opinion: • the financial statements give a true and fair view of the state of the Group’s and of the Parent Company’s affairs as at 31 December 2017 and of the Group’s profit for the year then ended; the Group financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with IFRSs as adopted by the European Union; the Parent Company financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. • • • Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Group and the Parent Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard as applied to listed entities, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where: • the directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is not appropriate; or the directors have not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the Group’s or the Parent Company’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue. • 10 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 2017Key audit matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgement, were of most significance in our audit of the financial statements of the current period and include the most significant assessed risks of material misstatement (whether or not due to fraud) we identified, including those which had the greatest effect on: the overall audit strategy, the allocation of resources in the audit; and directing the efforts of the engagement team. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter Acquisition of Elemental Healthcare Limited The Group acquired Elemental Healthcare Limited on 1 August 2017. The accounting for acquisitions under IFRS3 can be complex and requires significant judgement. The recognition and valuation of assets and liabilities acquired, such as customer relationships and other intangible assets, is inherently complex and judgemental. As a result there is a risk of material misstatement to the fair value allocated to assets and liabilities acquired including intangible assets. Management have engaged a third party to assist with the valuation of intangible assets acquired. Management have assessed whether there is any indication of impairment at the year-end. The disclosure of the business combination is set out in Note 20 of the consolidated financial statements. Capitalisation of development costs The Group carries out internal research and development projects with judgement being applied by management to identify when the expenditure meets the criteria for capitalisation under the requirements of paragraph 57 of IAS38. At 31 December 2017 the carrying value of development costs as disclosed in note 10 to the consolidated financial statements was £1,265,000 and the additions during the year totalled £281,000. Inventory provisions The Group had net inventories of £2,467,000 as at 31 December 2017 as disclosed note 11 to the financial statements. The accounting policy for inventories is set out in note 1(h) to the Group financial statements. The Group estimates a provision for the net realisable value of inventory based on the age of the assets. Where necessary further specific adjustments are made for other slow-moving or obsolete items on a line by line basis. There is significant management judgement in the estimation of inventory provisioning. 11 We obtained and understood the sale and purchase agreement (SPA) to confirm that, consistent with IFRS3 an appropriate accounting treatment has been applied and the disclosures made in the financial statements are accurate and complete. We confirmed cash consideration as stated in the SPA to bank statements. The fair value of the shares issued as part of the consideration has been assessed by reference to the share certificates issued and the company’s share price at the date of the transaction. In assessing the fair value of the assets acquired we consulted with our internal valuation specialists in relation to the identification of intangible assets and the valuation methodology used to calculate the exclusive supplier contracts. We have assessed whether there are any indicators of impairment at the year-end regarding any of the intangible or other assets recognised on acquisition. For a sample of projects, we obtained copies of approval forms to assess whether costs had met the criteria within paragraph 57 and therefore were appropriately being capitalised. We evaluated the nature and type of the development expenditure capitalised and confirmed the accuracy of personnel and other directly attributable expenses, on a sample basis, to supporting timesheets and other relevant supporting documentation. We evaluated management’s basis for the inventory provisions and the methodology applied to identify inventory requiring a provision. We performed a recalculation of the inventory provision by applying the same judgements as management to the aged stock report. We tested the accuracy of the ageing report by agreeing a sample of aged inventory items to the last recorded invoice. We reviewed the specific provisions made for slow moving and obsolete items by reference to new product launches that have superseded certain stock lines. On a sample basis we tested the net realisable value of inventory lines to recent selling prices. Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 2017Our application of materiality We apply the concept of materiality both in planning and performing our audit, and in evaluating the effect of misstatements. For planning, we consider materiality to be the magnitude by which misstatements, including omissions, could influence the economic decisions of reasonable users that are taken on the basis of the financial statements. In order to reduce to an appropriately low level the probability that any misstatements exceed materiality, we use a lower materiality level, performance materiality, to determine the extent of testing needed. Importantly, misstatements below these levels will not necessarily be evaluated as immaterial as we also take account of the nature of identified misstatements, and the particular circumstances of their occurrence, when evaluating their effect on the financial statements as a whole. The materiality for the Group financial statements as a whole was set at £90,000. This was determined with reference to a benchmark of EBITDA adjusted for the direct acquisition costs, of which this represents 4%, which we consider to be one of the principal considerations for members of the Parent Company in assessing the financial performance of the business. The materiality for the Parent Company financial statements was set at £80,000. This was determined with reference to a benchmark of 3% of net assets limited to the component materiality set for the audit of the Group. Component materiality ranged from £10,000 to £80,000. In order to reduce to an appropriately low level the probability that any misstatements exceed materiality, we use a lower materiality level, performance materiality, to determine the extent of testing needed. Performance materiality has been set at 60% of the above materiality. This has been assessed on criteria such as complexity and controls of the Group and Parent Company and the fact that this is our first year as auditors of the Group and Parent Company. We agreed with the Audit Committee that we would report to the committee all individual audit differences in excess of £2,000. We also agreed to report differences below this threshold that, in our view, warranted reporting on qualitative grounds. An overview of the scope of our audit Our Group audit was scoped by obtaining an understanding of the Group and its environment, including the Group’s system of internal control, and assessing the risks of material misstatement in the financial statements at the Group level. Financial information relating to the Parent Company and all subsidiaries of the Group was subject to full scope audit by the Group audit team. There are four components within the Group, including the Parent Company. Other information The directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: • the information given in the strategic report and the directors’ report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and the strategic report and the directors’ report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. • 12 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 2017Matters on which we are required to report by exception In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Group and the Parent Company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the strategic report or the directors’ report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: • adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or the Parent Company financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or • • certain disclosures of directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or • we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. Responsibilities of directors As explained more fully in the directors’ responsibilities statement set out on page 9, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s and the Parent Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to liquidate the Group or the Parent Company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Group accounting policies under IFRS (a) Basis of preparation Surgical Innovations Group PLC (the “Company”) is a public AIM listed company incorporated, domiciled and registered in England in the UK. The registered number is 2298163 and the registered address is Clayton wood house, 6 Clayton wood bank, Leeds, LS16 6QZ. These financial statements have been prepared on the basis of the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) accounting policies set out below. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS as adopted for use by the European Union, including IFRIC interpretations, and in line with those provisions of the Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies reporting under IFRS. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, are presented in Sterling and are rounded to the nearest thousand. The Directors have considered the available cash resources of the Group and its current forecasts and are satisfied that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence and that there are no material uncertainties casting doubt over the going concern status of the Group. Accordingly, the financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis. Further details of the Directors’ assessment are provided in the Directors’ report on page 9. New standards and amendments to standards adopted in the year During the year the group adopted the amendment to IAS7 which requires changes in liabilities arising from financing activities to be disclosed (to the extent necessary) from: (i) changes from financing cash flows; (ii) changes arising from obtaining or losing control of subsidiaries or other businesses; (iii) the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates; (iv) changes in fair values; and (v) other changes. The additional disclosure in relation to this change has been included within note 14 to the financial statements. Standards issued but not yet effective As of the date of authorisation of these financial statements, the following standards were in issue but not yet effective. The Group has not applied these standards in the preparation of the financial statements, and has not adopted any new or amended standards early: IFRS 15, ‘Revenues from Contracts with Customers’ is effective for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. IFRS 15 introduces a five-step approach to the timing of revenue recognition based on performance obligations in customer contracts. The Group will adopt IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers for the financial year starting 1 January 2018, applying the fully retrospective method of transition. With the exception of the additional disclosure requirements, the new standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Group’s Financial Statements. IFRS 9 ‘Financial instruments’ replaces IAS 39 ‘Financial instruments: Recognition and Measurement’. The standard is effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018. The standard covers three elements: • Classification and measurement: Changes to a more principle based approach to classify financial assets as either held at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI) or fair value through profit or loss, dependent on the business model and cash flow characteristics of the financial asset; • Impairment: Moves to an impairment model based on expected credit losses based on a three stage approach; and • Hedge accounting: The IFRS 9 hedge accounting requirements are designed to allow hedge accounting to be more closely aligned with the Group’s underlying risk management. A new International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) project is in progress to develop an approach to better reflect dynamic risk management in entities’ financial statements. The Group will adopt IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments for the financial year starting 1 January 2018. The Group does not hold complex financial instruments and therefore the majority of changes to the standard do not change the existing accounting for assets or liabilities held. All financial assets liabilities will continue to be measured at amortised costs. The Directors have considered the impact of IFRS 9 and concluded that the measurement of impairment of trade receivables will change with the use of the expected loss model assessment. A formal assessment of the impact of using the expected loss model is ongoing. • 18 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 2017A number of new standards and amendments to standards and interpretations have been issued but are not yet effective and in some cases have not yet been adopted by the EU. The Directors do not expect that the adoption of these standards will have a material impact on the financial statements of the Group in future periods, except that IFRS 16 will have an impact on the recognition of operating leases as finance leases. IFRS 16 – Leases will be adopted by the Group for the financial year starting on 1 January 2019. The impact of the new standard will be to bring operating lease arrangements on balance sheet, with a right of use asset and corresponding financial liability recognised on transition. The Group has material operating leases and therefore the adoption of the standard is expected to have a material impact on the Financial Statements of the Group. A formal assessment of the impact of this standard has not yet been made. (b) Consolidation Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. In assessing control, the Group takes into consideration potential voting rights. The acquisition date is the date on which control is transferred to the acquirer. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. Transactions eliminated on consolidation Intra-group balances and transactions, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra-group transactions, are eliminated. (c) Business combinations Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method as at the acquisition date, which is the date on which control is transferred to the Group. The Group measures goodwill at the acquisition date as the fair value of the consideration transferred; less the fair values of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. When the excess is negative, a bargain purchase gain is recognised immediately in profit or loss. Costs related to the acquisition are expensed as incurred. Any contingent consideration payable is recognised at fair value at the acquisition date. Any subsequent changes to the fair value of the contingent consideration are recognised in profit or loss. (d) Foreign currency translation Transactions and balances Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of Sterling using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income. The Group does use forward contracts in relation to foreign exchange but at the year end had no outstanding contracts (2016: None). (e) Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment are stated at the cost of acquisition less any provision for depreciation. Cost includes expend iture that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the item. The carrying values of property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The assets residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed at each financial year end and adjusted where the expected asset utilisation differs significantly from the depreciation method applied. Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost of property, plant and equipment less estimated residual value over their estimated useful economic lives at the following rates: Office and computer equipment Plant and machinery Tooling Placed equipment Leasehold improvements – – – – – 10–33% per annum 10-20% per annum 10–20% per annum 33.3% per annum Over the remaining term of the lease 19 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 2017 Placed equipment relates to equipment placed in clinical settings to generate a stream of recurring revenue from the single use element of the equipment. (f) Intangible assets and goodwill Goodwill Goodwill is stated at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units and is not amortised but is tested annually for impairment. Amortisation Amortisation is charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of intangible assets unless such lives are indefinite. Goodwill is systematically tested for impairment at each balance sheet date. Other intangible assets are amortised from the date they are available for use. The estimated useful lives are as follows: Capitalised development costs - Single use product knowledge transfer - - Exclusive supplier agreements 5-10 years 5 years 3 years Single use product knowledge transfer Single use product knowledge transfer relates to manufacturing know how and expertise to benefit the Group’s business in the medium term, not only by completing the product design but by enhancing production techniques. This will be amortised over the life cycle of the product design. Research and development Expenditure on research activities is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred. Development expenditure arising from the Group’s development activities is capitalised and amortised over the life of the product only if the Group can demonstrate the following: • • • • • the technical feasibility of completing the intangible asset so it will be available for use or sale; the intention to complete the intangible asset and use or sell it; the ability to use or sell the intangible asset; that it is probable that the asset created will generate future economic benefits; there is the availability of adequate technical, financial and other resources to complete the development and to use or sell the intangible asset; and the development cost of the asset can be measured reliably. • Where no intangible asset can be recognised, development expenditure is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred. Capitalised development costs are amortised over the life of the product within other operating expenses, which is usually between five and ten years. Intangible assets acquired on business combination Intangible assets are recognised on business combinations if they are seperable from the acquired entity or give rise to other contractual/legal rights. The amounts ascribed to such intangibles are arrived at by using appropriate valuation techniques (see section related to critical estimates and judgements) (g) Impairment of non-financial assets (excluding inventories) For goodwill an impairment review is carried out annually. Impairment reviews are carried out on other intangible assets and plant and equipment where there are indicators of impairment. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. (h) Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (using weighted average) and net realisable value. Cost is the purchase cost, including transport, for raw materials, together with a proportion of manufacturing overheads based on normal levels of activity, for finished goods. Net realisable value is based on estimated normal selling price, less further costs expected to be incurred to completion and sale. Impairment provisions are made for obsolete, slow moving or defective items where appropriate. Such provisions are based upon established future sales and historical experience. 20 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 2017 (i)Financial Instruments The Group classifies all financial assets as loans and receivables and measures them at amortised cost. The Group classifies all financial liabilities as other financial liabilities and measures them at amortised cost. Financial assets include: • • Trade and other receivables Cash and cash equivalents Trade and other receivables Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at fair value and thereafter at amortised costs less provision for impairment. A provision for impairment of trade receivables is established when there is objective evidence that the Group will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. The amount of the provision is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows. The amount of the loss is recognised in the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income, as are subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held on call at banks and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet. Financial liabilities include: • • Trade and other payables Borrowings Trade and other payables Trade payables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate. Borrowings Borrowings, which comprised bank loans and in the prior year potentially convertible fixed rate unsecured loan notes (“Loan Notes”), are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost; any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption value is recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the arrangement of the loan facilities and revolving credit facilities are recognised as transaction costs over the life of the agreement. (j) Share capital Ordinary shares are classified as equity. Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from proceeds. (k) Exceptional items Exceptional items are costs or group of costs which are non-recurring in nature which the Directors believe should be separately identified in the financial statements to enable the reader to properly understand the underlying trading performance of the business. (l) Income tax The charge for current tax is based on the results for the period as adjusted for items which are non-assessable or disallowed and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years. It is calculated using rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. Deferred tax is accounted for using the balance sheet liability method in respect of temporary differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax basis used in the computation of taxable profit. In principle, deferred tax liabilities are recognised for all taxable temporary differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which deductible temporary differences can be utilised. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from the initial recognition of goodwill (or negative goodwill) or from the initial recognition (other than in business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction which affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. 21 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 2017Tax benefits are not recognised unless the tax positions are probable of being sustained. Once considered to be probable, management reviews each material tax benefit to assess whether a deferred tax asset should be recognised, based on the ability under tax statute to recover those tax losses and through the assessment of probable future taxable profits against which those tax losses can be recovered. Deferred tax is calculated at the rates that are enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income, except when it relates to items credited or charged directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Group intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis. Information as to the calculation of the income tax expense is included in note 7. (m) Employee benefits Pension obligations The Group provides pension benefits to its employees through contributions to defined contribution Group personal pension policies. The amounts charged to the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income are the contributions payable in the period. Share-based compensation The Group issues equity settled share options to Directors and employees which are measured at fair value and recognised as an expense in the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income with a corresponding increase in profit and loss reserve. The fair value of the employee services received in exchange for the grant of the options is treated as remuneration in respect of the individual. The total amount to be expensed over the vesting period is determined by reference to the fair value of the options granted. The fair values of these payments are measured at the dates of grant and are recognised over the period during which employees become unconditionally entitled to the awards which is usually the vesting period. At each balance sheet date, the Group revises its estimate of the number of options that are expected to vest. It recognises the impact of the revision to original estimates, if any, in the Consolidated statement of comprehensive income, with a corresponding adjustment to retained earnings. (n) Income recognition Revenue - Sales of goods SI brand/OEM/Distribution Revenue is the total amount receivable by the Group for the supply of goods and services, excluding VAT and trade discounts. Revenue is recorded for the sale of goods when the significant risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to customers. Under our standard terms and conditions of sale, this arises when goods are despatched to the customer. Revenue - Provision of services Precision Engineering Project based revenue is accounted for using the percentage of completion method. Estimated contract revenues are accrued based on the ratio of costs incurred to date, to the total estimated costs, taking into account the level of physical completion. Amounts received in advance on projects are recorded within deferred income and where services are rendered and recorded within revenue before being invoiced amounts are recorded as deferred income. Interest income Interest income is recognised using the effective interest rate method, Other income Other income relates to amounts recorded in relation to compensation for the termination of a supplier agreement. The conditions of the termination agreed with the supplier provide ongoing obligations to the Group for the total amount of compensation. On this basis the income received for compensation is spread over the period to which the ongoing obligations relate. Other income not yet recognised in profit and loss is included within deferred income. (o) Leases Where the Group enters into a lease which entails taking substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset, the lease is treated as a finance lease. The asset is recorded in the balance sheet at fair value as property, plant and equipment and is depreciated over its estimated useful life or the term of the lease, whichever is the shorter. Future instalments under such leases, net of finance charges, are included in liabilities. Rentals under operating leases are charged on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease incentives, comprising rent free periods, are amortised over the period of the lease. 22 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 2017(p) Significant management judgement in applying accounting policies The following are significant management judgements made in applying the accounting policies of the Group that have the most significant effect on the financial statements. Critical estimation uncertainties are described in note (t). Internally generated research and development assets Management monitors the progress of internal research and development projects using the accounting system and through timesheet records. Judgement is required in determining and distinguishing the research phase from the development phase. Research costs are incurred during the concept phase of the project which is fully expensed in the period. Prior to the commencement of the product development phase, it is Group policy that capital expenditure approval is obtained from the appropriate level; this enables the Group to ensure that projects are financially viable after taking account of the cost of development. Costs incurred subsequent to this are recognised as an intangible asset when all relevant criteria are met. Management performs an impairment review of capitalised development. The impairment review includes a significant degree of judgement, in particular determining the revenue streams relevant to a particular project. Many of the Group’s products operate in conjunction with each other, particularly where the Resposable® concept applies. Accordingly, management aggregates together certain cash generating units as the product’s revenues are linked and certain development assets when looking at overall recoverability of the costs held in the consolidated balance sheet. Capitalised development costs at 31 December 2017 total £1,455,000 and any further impairment identified in future periods could have a material impact on the Group’s results. Intangible assets acquired on a business combination On 1st August 2017 the Group acquired 100% of the share capital of Elemental Healthcare Limited. As disclosed in note 20 to the financial statements the value of identifiable fair value of assets and liabilities of the company have been prepared on a provisional basis. The Directors engaged a third party valuation specialist to assist in the identification and valuation of separable intangible assets. Significant judgements include the continuation and renewal of supplier arrangements, the expected future revenue and margin profile, the internal rate of return and the contributory assets charges applied in an excess earnings model. (q) Estimation uncertainty When preparing the financial statements management determines a number of estimates and assumptions about recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions made by the Group and will seldom equal the estimated results. Information about significant estimates and assumptions that have the most significant effect on recognition and measurement of assets, liabilities, income and expenses are discussed below. Impairment As described in note (g) previously, the Group is required to test, on an annual basis, whether goodwill has suffered any impairment. The recoverable amount is determined based on a value in use calculation for the one cash generating unit that has goodwill. The use of this method requires the estimation of future cash flows and the determination of a discount rate in order to calculate the present value of the cash flows. Future cash flows are estimated based on operating margins using past experience and future expectations in the light of anticipated economic and market conditions. Discount rates are based on the Group’s WACC adjusted to reflect management’s assessment of specific risks related to the cash generating unit. Growth rates beyond the first five years are based on economic data pertaining to the relevant region, which is the UK. The discount rate and growth rates used are disclosed in note 10 to the financial statements. Trade receivables The Group provides, in certain agreed situations, products on extended credit terms in order to establish a presence in an export market. The Directors constantly review the likelihood of realisation of these receivables and make provision based on their best estimates of when the full value of the receivable will not be recoverable. As disclosed in note 12, the top three customers in trade receivables totaled, as at the 31 December 2017, £511,101 which highlights that a major customer failing could have a material impact on the Group. However none of these three top customers are on extended credit terms. 23 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 2017(r) Equity Equity includes the elements listed below: • • “Share capital” represents the nominal value of equity shares; “Share premium” represents the excess over nominal value of the fair value of consideration received for equity shares, net of expenses of share issues; “Capital reserve” represents the excess over nominal value of the fair value consideration attributed to equity shares issued in part settlement for subsidiary company shares acquired; “Merger reserve” represents the excess over the nominal value of the fair value consideration attributed to equity shares issued as part of a Acqusition; and “Retained earnings” represents the accumulated profits and losses of the Group less dividends paid. • • • 24 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 20172. Segmental reporting Information reported to the Board, as Chief Operating Decision Makers,and for the purpose of assessing performance and making investment decisions is organised into three operating segments. The Group’s operating segments under IFRS 8 are as follows: SI Brand OEM – – Distribution _ the research, development, manufacture and distribution of SI branded minimally invasive devices the research, development, manufacture and distribution of minimally invasive devices for third party medical device companies through either own label or co-branding. This now incorporates Precision Engineering, the research, development, manufacture and sale of minimally invasive technology products for precision engineering applications distribution of specialist medical products sold through Elemental Healthcare Ltd The measure of profit or loss for each reportable segment is gross margin less amortisation of product development costs. Assets and working capital are monitored on a Group basis, with no separate disclosure of asset by segment made in the management accounts, and hence no separate asset disclosure is provided here.

These costs are amortised over the future commercial life of the product, commencing on the sale of the first commercial item, up to a maximum product life cycle of ten years, and taking account of expected market conditions and penetration. An impairment review is carried out annually for goodwill. Goodwill arose on the acquisition of Elemental Healthcare Limited during the current year. Elemental Healthcare Limited is considered to be a separate cash generating unit of the group whose recoverable amount has been calculated on a value in use basis by reference to discounted future cash flows over a five year period plus a terminal value. Principal assumptions underlying this calculation are the growth rate into perpetuity of 2% and a pre-tax discount rate of 15% applied to anticipated cash flows. On this basis, the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit exceeds its carrying value and in view of this excess, the Directors do not consider the impairment calculation to be unduly sensitive to changes to the above assumptions, and are of the opinion that no provision for impairment is required. Single use product knowledge transfer relates to the acquisition and of the single use laparoscopic instrumentmentation products of Surgical Dynamics Ltd in the prior year. 11.

Loan A of £1.5m is subject to quarterly payments of £0.075m commencing on 31 October 2017, totaling repayments £0.3m per annum at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 3% per annum. Loan B of £1m is interest only at a rate of LIBOR plus 3.5% per annum with a repayment in full by the termination date of 31 July 2022.On the 31 December 2017 the remaining balance of the term loans was £2.425m. The bank has made available a Revolving Credit Facility (RCF) of up to £0.5m for working capital and other purposes. The RCF and loan agreements are subject to compliance with financial covenants which measure cash flow to debt service and EBITDA, interest cover and leverage. If the RCF is drawdown the rate of interest applicable to each loan for its interest period will be LIBOR plus 2.8% per annum and it will be secured by a floating charge over the assets of the Group. At the 31 December 2017, no amount was drawndown. 33 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 201714. Financial instruments The Group is exposed to market risk through its use of financial instruments. The Group’s risk management is co- ordinated by the Directors who focus actively on securing the Group’s short to medium-term cash flows through regular review of all the operating activities of the business. Long-term financial investments are managed to generate lasting returns. The Group does not actively engage in the trading of financial assets for speculative purposes nor does it write options. The most significant financial risks to which the Group is exposed are described in the following sections. Foreign currency sensitivity Exposures to currency exchange rates arise from the Group’s overseas sales and purchases, most of which are denominated in Euros and Dollars. To mitigate the Group’s exposure to foreign currency risk, cash flows in Euros and Dollars are monitored on an ongoing basis. Foreign currency denominated financial assets and liabilities are set out below: Financial assets Financial liabilities Short-term exposure 2017 €’000 - (129) (129) 2016 €’000 - (1) (1) 2017 $’000 779 (399) 380 2016 $’000 454 (11) 443 The Group has exposure to the movements in the exchange rates in the Euro and Dollar at 31 December 2017. An analysis of the effect of a reasonable possible movement in exchange rates shows that a movement of 5% in the exchange rate could result in foreign currency gains or losses of £11,000 (2016: £nil) against the Euro and £28,000 (2016: £19,000) against the Dollar. The Group gives consideration to the use of forward currency contracts to reduce foreign currency exposure. No forward currency contracts were in place at the balance sheet date (2016: £nil). Credit risk analysis The Group’s exposure to credit risk is limited to the carrying amount of financial assets recognised at the balance sheet date, which are set out below: Trade and other receivables 2017 £’000 1,964 1,964 2016 £’000 1,387 1,387 The Group continually monitors defaults of customers and other counterparties and incorporates this information into its credit risk controls. Management considers that all of the above financial assets that are not impaired for each of the reporting dates under review are of good credit quality, including those that are past due. In respect of trade and other receivables that are not impaired, the Group does have some credit risk through customer concentration as disclosed in note 12. Liquidity risk analysis The Group manages its liquidity needs by carefully monitoring all scheduled cash outflows. Liquidity needs are monitored in various time bands, on a day-to-day and week-to-week basis, as well as on the basis of a rolling 13-week projection. Longer- term needs are monitored as part of the Group’s regular rolling monthly re-forecasting process. Funding for long-term liquidity is additionally secured by an adequate amount of committed credit both through asset finance facilities and loans. Further analysis of long-term borrowings is provided in note 13. The Group’s liabilities have contractual cash flows which are summarised below: 31 December 2017 Finance lease obligations Trade and other payables Bank loans Current Within 6 Months £’000 12 1,178 194 1,384 Non- Current Over 12 months £’000 Within 6 -12 Months £’000 4 - 21 - 194 2,382 219 2,382 34 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 201714.

Capital management The Group’s capital management objectives are: • to ensure its ability to continue as a going concern; and • to provide an adequate return to shareholders by pricing products and services commensurately with the level of risk. The Group manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may issue new shares or sell assets to reduce debt. Historically, the Group has primarily been funded through cash reserves and hire purchase financing and accordingly no target for gearing levels has been set. Capital as monitored by the Group for the reporting periods under review is summarised as follows: Bank loan Obligations under finance leases Less: cash and cash equivalents Net (cash)/debt Total equity Total capital 2017 £’000 2,425 16 (1,709) 732 13,716 14,448 2016 £’000 53 - (775) (722) 5,838 5,116 36 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 201715.

The exercise price of the granted options is equal to market price at grant. For employees, options are conditional upon completing a three year service period from the date of grant. For distributors and members of the Clinical Advisory Board, options are conditional on the completion of appropriate objectives. Movements in the number of share options outstanding and their related weighted average exercise price are as follows: At 1 January Exercised Granted Lapsed At 31 December 2017 2016 Average exercise price pence 3.0 1.7 3.6 Options ’000s 27,780 (1,900) 31,000 Average exercise price pence 3.2 - - 1.7 (1,560) (1.7) 3.4 55,320 3.0 Options ’000s 29,840 - - (2,060) 27,780 Out of the 55,319,998 options (2016: 27,779,998), 4,800,000 (2015: 4,800,000) options were exercisable at an average exercise price of 1.7p (2015: 1.7p). The weighted average contractual life remaining on the options is 8.5 years. The weighted average fair value of options granted in the current year were determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The significant inputs into the model were share price at the date of grant, exercise price as set out above, volatility of 40%, an expected option life varying between three and five years and an annual risk-free interest rate of 2.5%. Volatility was calculated with reference to statistical analysis of the historic daily share price. After taking account of leavers, the total share- based payment charge for the year was £18,000 (2016: £23,000). 38 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 201716.

Acquisition On the 1st August 2017, the Group acquired 100% of the equity of Elemental Healthcare Ltd for a total investment of £9,375,000. The main reason for the acquisition was to add a direct route to market in the UK, as well as a range of complementary devices and instrumentation which Elemental have exclusive distribution rights to. The acquisition was also earnings enhancing with the business being profitable and cash generative. Book values were not adjusted for fair value changes apart from a separable intangible asset (Exclusive supplier contracts) and its associated deferred tax being identified and valued. Details of the provisional assessment of the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired, purchase consideration and goodwill of Elemental Healthcare are as follows: Assets acquired from Surgical Dynamics Ltd: Exclusive supplier contracts Property, plant & Equipment Inventory Trade debtors Other debtors, prepayments and accrued income Cash in hand Trade creditors Corp tax Other creditors, taxes & social security Accruals Deferred tax liability FV identifiable assets Goodwill recognised Acquisition-date fair value of the total consideration transferred Representing: Cash Shares issued Acquisition costs expensed to profit or loss Acquisition costs expensed to share premium attributable to equity Total Acquisition costs Out of the £441,000, £431,000 was paid by the year ending 31 December 2017.

The results of the Group would have been approximately, revenue of £11.79m and profit after tax of £1m if the acquisition had been made on 1 January 2017. The goodwill represents substantial synergies and cross selling opportunities for combining the business to the Group, as well as the inherent value of the assembled workforce. 41 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 2017Company Balance Sheet Company Balance Sheet as at 31 December 2017 Assets Non-Current Assets Investments Current assets Trade receivables Cash at bank Total Assets Equity & liabilities Equity attributable to equity holders of the company Share capital Share premium account Merger reserve Retained earnings Total Equity Non-current liabilities Loan notes Current liabilities Trade & other payables Total liabilities Total equity & liabilities Notes 2017 £’000 2016 £’000 2 3 6 5 4 10,374 1,018 3,262 75 3,338 13,711 7,826 5,831 1,250 (1,490) 13,417 - 294 294 13,711 5,399 344 5,743 6,761 5,334 2,339 - (1,047) 6,626 - 135 135 6,761 The loss after tax for the company for the year ended 31 December 2017 was £461,000 (2016: loss £203,000).

Accounting policies (a) Basis of preparation These financial statements were prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 101 Reduced Disclosure Framework (“FRS 101”). The amendments to FRS 101 issued in July 2015 and effective immediately have been applied. In preparing these financial statements, the Company applies the recognition, measurement and disclosure requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the EU (“Adopted IFRSs”), but makes amendments where necessary in order to comply with Companies Act 2006 and has set out below where advantage of the FRS 101 disclosure exemptions has been taken. In these financial statements, the company has applied the exemptions available under FRS 101 in respect of the following disclosures • Comparative period reconciliations for share capital; • • Disclosures in respect of transactions with wholly owned subsidiaries ; • • An additional balance sheet for the beginning of the earliest comparative period following the retrospective The effects of new but not yet effective IFRSs; a Cash Flow Statement and related notes; change in accounting policy • Disclosures in respect of the compensation of Key Management Personnel; and • Disclosures of transactions with a management entity that provides key management personnel services to the company. As the consolidated financial statements of Surgical Innovations Group PLC include the equivalent disclosures, the Company has also taken the exemptions under FRS 101 available in respect of the following disclosures • IFRS 2 Share Based Payments in respect of group settled share based payments The Company proposes to continue to adopt the reduced disclosure framework of FRS 101 in its next financial statements. The accounting policies set out below have, unless otherwise stated, been applied consistently to all periods presented in these financial statements. The company has adopted the following IFRSs in these financial statements: The definition of a ‘related party’ is extended to include a management entity that provides key management personnel services to the reporting entity, either directly or through a group entity. The financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis. (b) Investment in subsidiary undertakings The Company’s investment in subsidiary undertakings is stated at cost less any provision for impairment. (c) Share-based transactions Share-based payment arrangements in which the Company receives goods or services as consideration for its own equity instruments are accounted for as equity-settled share-based payment transactions, regardless of how the equity instruments are obtained by the Company. The grant date fair value of share-based payments awards granted to employees is recognised as an employee expense, with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period in which the employees become unconditionally entitled to the awards. The fair value of the awards granted is measured using an option valuation model, taking into account the terms and conditions upon which the awards were granted. The amount recognised as an expense is adjusted to reflect the actual number of awards for which the related service and non-market vesting conditions are expected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognised as an expense is based on the number of awards that do meet the related service and non-market performance conditions at the vesting date. For share-based payment awards with non-vesting conditions, the grant date fair value of the share-based payment is measured to reflect such conditions and there is no true-up for differences between expected and actual outcomes. 44 Surgical Innovations Group PLC Annual Report and Accounts 20172.
