TRADING UPDATE

CPPGroup Plc ("CPP" or "the Group"), the international assistance business, today provides an update on trading in the period since the Group's interim results announcement published on 18 August 2016 (the "Interim Results").

A combination of continued focus on cost control across the Group, increased sales volumes in our Indian business, and the impact of a weaker sterling on the results of our European operations, has resulted in the Board now anticipating underlying operating profit1 for the full year ended 31 December 2016 to be materially ahead of the expectations detailed in the Interim Results.

Additionally, further to the Group's announcement on 14 September 2016, regarding the decision to develop an IT platform on its existing systems, CPP continues to negotiate an agreement with SSP Limited and will provide an update on the final outcome in due course.

1. Underlying operating profit represents performance from continuing operations excluding exceptional items.
