AGM Statement

Michelmersh Brick Holdings PLC (AIM: MBH), the specialist brick manufacturer, announces that at its Annual General Meeting (AGM), which is to be held at 11.00 am today, Martin Warner, Chairman, will make the following statement:

"Since reporting our full-year 2022 results in March, we have continued to add to our quality forward order book with resilient order intake for our broad product portfolio from our loyal customer base and distributor relationships across our end markets, whilst production volumes have continued in line with expectations. We are also very pleased with the start to the year at FabSpeed, our leading brick fabricator and manufacturer of off-site pre-built brick products, in our first full year of ownership. FabSpeed provides a product range which will deepen our distribution relationships even further by meeting more of the needs for our end markets, and the business continues to perform in line with our expectations.

"Wider demand across the construction industry has been impacted by the higher interest rate environment and we are focused on appropriate portfolio pricing to maintain an end market spread in our forward order book drawn from social and specification housing, RMI, new build and commercial sectors.

"The Board remains confident that the quality fundamentals in our business continue to provide resilience to our outlook. The Group has made a robust start to 2023, and combined with our balanced forward order book, we remain on track to meet full-year expectations."

Pending approval by shareholders at the AGM, the final dividend in respect of the year ended 31 December 2022 of 2.95 pence per ordinary share will be paid on 12 July 2023 to members on the register on 9 June 2023, the ex-dividend date will be 8 June 2023.
