Ian Smith, Executive Director, commented:
"The board is committed to growing Tialis both from M&A activities and organic sales, and we collectively intend the group to become a cash generating vehicle and will look to implement a progressive dividend policy in the future. The recent acquisition of shares from an existing institution is testament to our commitment, which only adds to the substantial shareholding between Daisy/Matt and MXC/Ian. Despite recent proposed changes to the IHT legislation we believe that trading AIM equities retain their IHT attractiveness".
