We now look forward to constructive engagement with all the Company's stakeholders, including Seneca, as we continue to build on the strong momentum within our business.   "I would like to place on record our thanks to our shareholders and Advisers, and to reiterate our support for both Steen Andersen as our Chief Executive and Frederik Bruhn-Petersen as our new Non-executive Director."   For further information, please contact:   ProBiotix Health plc https://probiotixhealth-ir.com/ Steen Andersen, Chief Executive Officer Contact via Walbrook below Peterhouse Capital Limited (Aquis Corporate Adviser and Broker)     Mark Anwyl Tel: 020 7220 9793   Walbrook PR Ltd [email protected] Anna Dunphy Mob: 07876 741 001   Notes:   (i)            Words and expressions defined in the circular to Shareholders dated 15 October 2024 have the same meaning in this announcement.   (ii)           For the avoidance of doubt, references in this announcement to the "Independent Directors" are to the Directors of ProBiotix other than Stephen O'Hara, who is a Non-executive Director of the Company and is also Chief Executive of OptiBiotix.
