Trading Update

 

Since the Annual General Meeting Trading Statement made on the 9th May 2008
indicating a no better than break even position for the first 6 months of 2008
the usual seasonal upturn in trading has been weaker than expected and it is
now anticipated that the Company will make a modest loss at the interim stage.

 
A trading statement for the year to 31st December 2008 will be made when the
actual interim figures are reported in September.

 
It is the Board's present intention to maintain the interim dividend at 1.5p
per ordinary share to be paid on 13th October 2008 and further details will be
notified in due course.
