About Science in Sport plc

Science in Sport plc is a leading sports nutrition company that develops, manufactures and markets sports nutrition products for professional athletes and sports enthusiasts. SiS is a strong brand in the elite athlete community - in the 2016 London Olympics, 34 medal-winning athletes or teams used SiS products (compared with 24 in 2012).

A key component of this trust is the Company's approach to preventing banned substances entering its supply chain and finished products. Each year an internal review of the banned substance prevention regime takes place, and from January 2017 an upgraded system has been implemented. The enhanced regime is built on the following pillars:

·      Every single batch of SIS finished product which leaves the Company's factory is screened against the 2017 World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) list. Banned substances including steroids are tested to the level of 10 Nanograms per gram, and stimulants to 100 Nanograms per gram

·      Batches (sampled at the beginning, during and end of each product batch) receive the recognised and respected Informed Sport certificate and SIS provides the documentation to athletes on request

SiS is currently the official sports nutrition supplier to professional cycling team Team Sky, USA Cycling, British Cycling and Liverpool Football Club. Sir Chris Hoy & Katarina Johnson-Thompson are official brand ambassadors and cyclist Mark Cavendish is also an elite sports consultant.

The SiS core product range includes: SiS GO, comprising energy powders, isotonic gels, energy bars and hydration tablets, SiS REGO, including protein-based recovery powders and SiS Protein, products specifically designed to contribute to athletes' lean muscle mass growth and maintenance. SiS products are sold in a range of retail channels, including specialist sport retailers, major grocers, high street retailers and e-commerce websites.

SiS was founded in 1992 and is headquartered in Hatton Garden, London. Its manufacturing facility is in Nelson, Lancashire.

SiS shares are traded on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol SIS.
