("Dillistone" or the "Group")
Results of Annual General Meeting ("AGM") and AGM Statement
Dillistone, the AIM quoted supplier of recruitment software, announces that at its 2009 AGM which was held at 11.00 a.m. today, all resolutions put to shareholders were duly passed.
At today's AGM, Jim McLaughlin, Executive Chairman and Finance Director of Dillistone, made the following trading update:
"Our annual results for the year ended 31 December 2008 demonstrated that we had benefited from an extremely strong first half followed by a weaker second half as the impact of the global recession was felt.
"As mentioned in my Chairman's statement the board expected that the recession would have a negative impact on the 2009 results. The board is now in a position to confirm that revenues in the first half of 2009 will be significantly lower than the record level achieved in 2008. However, the board remains confident that the business will achieve an outcome for the year as a whole in line with market expectations.
"The Group remains profitable, debt free and cash generative. Our previously announced increase in product development expenditure on FILEFINDER underlines Dillistone's commitment to maintaining a market leading position and makes the board confident about the long term performance of the business. We reiterate our intention to maintain dividend payments at 2009 levels."
