| Amendment Description | EXPLANATORY NOTE Trinity Biotech plc (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to its Annual Report on Form 20-F, filed on April 30, 2024 (the “Original Form 20-F”), solely to correct a typographical error in the description of the exhibit to be incorporated by reference as Exhibit 4.19. Except as described above, no changes have been made to the Original Form 20-F. Furthermore, this Amendment does not change any previously reported financial results, nor does it reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original Form 20-F. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Form 20-F and the Company’s filings with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Form 20-F. Pursuant to Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), this Amendment also includes as exhibits the certifications of the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer of the Company pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Because no financial statements have been included in this Amendment and this Amendment does not contain or amend any disclosure with respect to Item 15 of Form 20-F, paragraphs 3, 4, and 5 have been omitted from such certifications. The Company is not including certifications pursuant to Section 1350 of Chapter 63 of Title 18 of the United States Code (18 U.S.C. 1350) because no financial statements are filed with this Amendment. |
