AGM Statement
NAHL (AIM: NAH), the leading consumer marketing business focused on the UK legal services market, will make the following statement at its Annual General Meeting ("AGM") to be held today at 10am:
Trading Update
The Group's new financial year has commenced well, and performance for the first four months was in line with our expectations. National Accident Helpline has performed well with good enquiry volumes, and early indications from Fitzalan Partners, our recent acquisition in the conveyancing market, are encouraging.
We expect to report good progress in the six months to 30 June 2015.
Board Change
Samantha Porteous, who has been with the Group since 2006, has indicated her wish to retire from the Board with immediate effect. Sam joined National Accident Helpline initially as CFO, becoming CEO in 2009. She took up a non-executive role on the Company's Admission to AIM in May 2014. The Board thanks Sam for her contribution to the Group and we wish her well in the next phase of her career. As planned, Gillian Kent will become Chairman of the Remuneration Committee following the AGM
As a result of this, Resolution 7, which was to approve the reappointment of Samantha Porteous as a director of the Company, will no longer be proposed at today's AGM.
Adviser Change
The Group also announces that, with effect from 29 May 2015, Investec will become sole broker while continuing to be the Group's NOMAD.
