Pharming Enters the Euronext Amsterdam SmallCap-index (AScX)

LEIDEN, Netherlands, March 15, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

Euronext evaluated Pharming for a top ranking within the SmallCap-index of public companies in the Netherlands

Pharming Group N.V. ("Pharming" or "the Company") (Euronext Amsterdam: PHARM) announced today that it has been included in the Euronext Amsterdam SmallCap-index (AScX). On entry into the AScX, Pharming has become one of the larger index members.

Composition of the AScX is reviewed quarterly by Euronext. Entry eligibility into any of the Amsterdam indexes is evaluated by certain criteria, which includes a share price in excess of €1.00, as well as criteria related to free float/ market capitalisation and free float/ velocity. Based on these evaluations, Euronext ranks the companies by size into one of the indexes of the Amsterdam stock exchange.

Dr Sijmen de Vries, Chief Executive Officer of Pharming, commented:

"We are very pleased to have been selected for the AScX Index, which validates the growth of the Company, as well as providing access to a new pool of funds mandated to invest in companies in this index. Since re-acquiring the North American rights to RUCONEST we have become one of a highly select few European biotechnology companies to gainfully commercialise its own developed products on both sides of the Atlantic. As a result, we have become one of the fastest growing companies in Europe in our sector. Driven by our strong growth, we have also become a profitable enterprise generating significant cash flow to invest into accelerating future growth. We remain confident that during 2018 Pharming will continue to grow revenues, generate increasing operating profits and achieve net profitability and thereby continue to generate value for its stakeholders."
