Directorate Change - Chief Financial Officer

Chippenham, UK - 20 April 2018: Vectura Group plc (LSE: VEC) ("Vectura" or the "Group"), an industry-leading device and formulation business for inhaled airways products, today announces that Chief Financial Officer and Executive Director Andrew Derodra has decided to leave the Group to take up a new role within the industry.

Andrew will take up the position of Chief Financial Officer at Unilabs, the private equity owned leader in medical diagnostics.

Andrew will remain in his position at Vectura and on the Board until the end of July in order to ensure a smooth transition process. A search for his replacement is underway and the Group will provide an update on his successor in due course.

James Ward-Lilley, Vectura's CEO, commented:

"I would like to thank Andrew both personally and on behalf of the Vectura Board for his continued support and contribution to the success of Vectura. Andrew played a key role in the business after joining Skyepharma in 2013, and later in bringing the Vectura and Skyepharma businesses together in 2016. He leaves the transformed Vectura Group in good shape and with a strong outlook, well-positioned to capitalise on the great opportunities with our inhaled in-market products and refocussed pipeline portfolio. We wish Andrew every success in his new role."
