Notice of Capital Markets Event
Itaconix (AIM: ITX) (OTCQB: ITXXF), a leading innovator in plant‐based specialty polymers used as
essential ingredients in everyday consumer products, will at 13:00 BST today hold its Annual General
Meeting (“AGM”) at the offices of Fieldfisher LLP, Riverbank House, 2 Swan Lane, London EC4R 3TT.
At the AGM, John R. Shaw, CEO, will make the following statement regarding current trading:
“We are pleased to announce record revenues in the first half. We delivered our fourth consecutive
year of first half revenue growth by achieving revenues substantially ahead of any prior half year.
Demand has remained strong right into this week.
“Our business is progressing very well and places us in a strong position to meet market expectations
for revenues in 2022. We are growing with new orders from current customers and with the addition
of important new customers in the cleaning sector. We have an attractive pipeline of new customer projects in cleaning, hygiene, and beauty applications. As a result, we continue to build a much broader base of recurring revenues.
“We have the production capacity to meet expected customer needs and a supply chain for our raw
materials that has improved and become more predictable in recent months. We are fortunate that
the value of our products and the lack of direct competition support us in making judicious price
increases as we navigate the cost increases experienced globally. We are now passing the majority of
these costs onto our customers and so are hopeful that gross margin will be protected in the near term.
“We remain encouraged that underlying consumer demand for the products which contain our
ingredientsremainsstrong. Current and prospective customers are actively seeking solutions from our
technology platform to formulate more environmentally sustainable products, without compromising
on performance or cost.
“We will provide a more detailed trading update with first half highlights and a second half outlook in
the week commencing 11 July 2022.”
