Trading update and AGM statement

"Continued momentum and full year outlook unchanged"

HSS Hire Group plc ("HSS" or the "Group") provides the following trading update ahead of its Annual General Meeting later today.

The Group has continued to see positive trading momentum in the first five months of FY23 and remains on track to deliver full year Adjusted EBITA(1) in line with market expectations.

HSS ProService's strategy implementation continues to progress well. Based on the early positive results of these strategic initiatives, overhead investment will be increased to GBP6.5m in 2023.

A further update on the Group's strategy and performance will be provided at HSS's half year results in September 2023.

Steve Ashmore, Chief Executive Officer, commented:

"We are very pleased with the Group's progress in 2023, both in terms of financial performance and the implementation of our strategy. While we are mindful of recent commentary regarding a slowdown in certain sectors, we are confident that our unique technology-driven proposition and flexible cost-base will enable us to manage any headwinds and deliver on market expectations for 2023."
