Trading Update

2013 Trading in line with the Board's expectations

Leading provider of personalised customer communication services, Communisis plc (LSE: CMS) issues its trading update for the year ended 31 December 2013.

Trading for the full year was in line with the Board's expectations and the Group continued to make good progress toward its strategic goals. In particular, the Group's client-led international expansion has accelerated during the year and Communisis expects to have derived about 18% of its total revenues from overseas sources in 2013 (2012 7%).

The Group's pipeline remains strong and contract wins previously announced, such as that with Lloyds Banking Group for the outsourcing of transactional communications, are now fully live and will contribute on a full year basis in 2014.

Net debt at 31 December 2013 was lower than expectations at approximately £25m.

Communisis will announce its preliminary results on 6 March 2014.
