Pre-Close Trading Statement

Fever-Tree, the world's leading supplier of premium carbonated mixers for alcoholic spirits by retail sales value, today announces its pre-close trading update for the period ended 30 June 2015.

The Board is pleased to announce that Fever-Tree has continued to perform strongly in the first six months of 2015. It is anticipated that sales in the first half of 2015 will be approximately £24 million, 61 per cent. ahead of the prior year period. June was a particularly strong sales month, although it was accentuated by certain customers and importers building inventory in advance of the summer season.

Given the strong sales in the first half of the year and in particular in June, the Board anticipates that the results for the full year will be materially ahead of board expectations.

Fever-Tree will announce its interim results on Monday 27 July 2015. An analyst briefing will be held at 10.00am on Monday 27 July 2015 at the offices of FTI Consulting, 200 Aldersgate, Aldersgate Street, EC1A 4HD.
