Bioventix plc                                 

                        ("Bioventix" or the "Company")                         

                                Issue of Equity                                

Bioventix plc (AIM: BVXP) announces that it has today applied for 6,729
ordinary shares of 5 pence each (the "Option Shares") to be admitted to trading
on AIM ("Admission"). It is expected that Admission will occur and that
dealings will commence in the Option Shares on 14 November 2014.

The Option Shares are being issued pursuant to the exercise of options by a
former employee of the Company. The Option Shares will rank pari passu with the
existing ordinary shares of 5 pence each in the capital of the Company
("Ordinary Shares").

The total number of Ordinary Shares in issue following Admission will be
5,050,931 and the Company holds no shares in treasury. Therefore the total
number of Ordinary Shares with voting rights in the Company is 5,050,931.

The above figure of 5,050,931 may be used by shareholders as the denominator
for the calculations by which they will determine if they are required to
notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, Bioventix under the
FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.
