Omega (AIM: ODX), the specialist medical diagnostics company focused on industry-leading Health and Nutrition products, announces that Chris Lea, Group Finance Director of the Company, will be stepping down as a Director and leaving the Company with immediate effect.

Chris has been instrumental in selling the Alva site and subsequent sale of the CD4 Business along with a restructuring of Omega, based in Ely, Cambridgeshire. The restructuring and disposals were key in refocusing the Company on food intolerance testing and ensuring it has sufficient resources to drive Omega forward. Chris is based in Scotland and his stepping down is in line with the Company strategy to focus more of its resources in and around the Company's headquarters in Ely, Cambridge.

As per the recent results, the Company remains very well-funded with £5.1m of cash at 31 March 2023. This is more than sufficient to build on the platform Omega has to drive a profitable and sustainable Company.

Omega intends to change its name to Cambridge Nutritional Sciences at the upcoming Annual General Meeting and intends to appoint an interim CFO shortly.

Simon Douglas, Chairman of Omega, said: "We thank Chris for all his efforts and fully appreciate how instrumental he was in the refocusing and restructuring of the Company. We wish him all the best for the future."
