Volex AGM Statement
Volex plc (AIM:VLX), the global manufacturer supplying power
products and integrated manufacturing services, is today holding
its Annual General Meeting.
At the meeting, Executive Chairman, Nat Rothschild, will make
the following statement on trading for the three months ended June
2021.
"I am pleased to report that the levels of customer demand we
experienced in the second half of FY2021 have continued into the
first quarter of FY2022 . Performance in Consumer Electricals
remains very strong and Electric Vehicle revenues continue to grow,
reflecting our leading position in this sector.
Our Medical and Complex Industrial Technology customers are also
experiencing a healthy recovery in areas where there had been
reduced demand in FY2021 due to challenges imposed by the
pandemic.
DE-KA, the leading European domestic appliance power cord
supplier, which was acquired in February this year, has continued
to trade well.
Against this continued, robust performance, we remain mindful of
the potential impact on trading caused by supply chain shortages,
material cost inflation and freight challenges, as well as the
ongoing operational issues posed by the Covid-19 pandemic.
We successfully passed through the copper price inflation
experienced earlier in the year and our global supply chain and
customer service teams remain focused on ensuring that we continue
to meet our customers' expectations.
Cash flow in the first quarter has been robust which, combined
with our balance sheet strength, provides us with the financial
flexibility to advance further opportunities from our acquisition
pipeline.
Overall, whilst still early in the year, the positive trends in
the first quarter lead the Board to expect to deliver full year
underlying operating profit slightly ahead of current market
expectations(1) ."
(1) Latest company compiled view of market expectations shows an
underlying operating profit consensus of $50.0m with a range of
$48.9 million to $51.0 million.

responsible for arranging the release of this announcement on

& Company Secretary.
