INTERIM MANAGEMENT STATEMENT

Sepura plc (the "Company"), a leading global provider of TETRA digital radios, today issues its Interim Management Statement for the period from 2 October 2010 to 13 February 2011.

We have seen recent delays in orders from two markets, predominantly Germany (where government budgets remain robust) and a lesser effect from one Asian territory, and as a result we now expect revenues for the current financial year to be in the low- to mid- £70ms. The expected revenue delay in Germany relates to business which has already been awarded to the Company under existing framework contracts. Trading in other markets is in line with expectations, and gross margin for the current financial year is modestly ahead of market expectations. At this stage, the Board expects that this delay in revenues should underpin, or possibly enhance, the current outlook for the medium-term. The Company confirms that its expectations for FY12 remain unchanged.
