    1. PharmAust is not aware of any information concerning it that has not been announced which, ifknown by some in the market, could explain the recent trading in its securities.The Directors believe the recent trading in its shares is primarily due to the increased awareness inthe market place of PharmAust and the progress of the clinical trials of its primary drug candidate,Monepantel (MPL).In that context, PharmAust draws the attention of the ASX to its announcement on 15 July 2019that it had received ethics approval from the NSW Department of Primary Industry’s Secretary'sAnimal Care & Ethics Committee to recommence Phase II clinical trials in pet owners’ dogs withcancer using its newly formulated tablet.PharmAust also reported that the scaled manufacture of the new GMP quality tablet iscompleted.and anticipates delivery of the tablets from the USA in August/September and thenrecruitment can commence for the Phase II trials shortly thereafter. PharmAust aims to first treatdogs with B-cell lymphoma, the most prevalent canine cancer.The company is also pleased that its wholly owned subsidiary, Epichem Pty Ltd, has continued tobuild contract sales and income activities. On 2 July 2019, PharmAust announced that Epichemhad paid off its debt liability on time for a major state-of-the-art laboratory expansion undertakenEpichem’s revenues have made a significant upturn over the period 2015 to 2018, increasing 38%to $3.02 million in FY18, and forecast to exceed $3.7 million in FY19.
