Interim Dividend Timetable - Revised Record Date

Alliance Pharma plc (AIM: APH), the specialty pharmaceutical company, announces that in light of the announcement earlier today regarding the proposed acquisition of the Healthcare Products Business from Sinclair IS Pharma plc (the "Acquisition"), and the associated vendor placing, the Company is deferring the record date for its Interim Dividend to 29 December 2015 (from 18 December 2015). The payment date remains 14 January 2016, as announced in the Company's interim results on 9 September 2015.
