Goals Soccer Centres plc
AGM Statement
The Annual General Meeting of Goals Soccer Centres plc ("Goals" or "the Company"), the premier operator of 'next generation' 5-a-side soccer with 43 centres across the UK and one in the USA, is being held at 10.30am today, 30 April 2013 at the offices of Canaccord Genuity, 88 Wood Street, London EC2V 7QR.
At the meeting Sir Rodney Walker, Chairman, will make the following statement:
"The Company has traded in line with the Board's expectations in the period since we announced our results for the financial year ended 31 December 2012 and we remain confident of Goals' continued progress in 2013 and beyond.
The Board continues to focus on strong cash generation and enhancing return on capital from our immature centres. This strategy has enabled the Board to meet the key objective of further reducing bank debt which has been reduced to approximately £48.75m at 29 April 2013 (31 December 2012: £50.2m).
In my most recent Chairman's statement I indicated that after over 10 years' service to the Company as Non-Executive Chairman, I have decided to step down from my post on the Company's Board and to take up a non-Board position of Honorary President. The Board have interviewed various candidates for the position of Non-Executive Chairman and hope to make an announcement in due course."
