Trading Update
Styles & Wood issues the following update on trading.
Revenue for the year ending 31 December 2008 is anticipated to be in line with expectations.
Management's assessment is that Group profit before taxation for the current year is likely to be around break even, largely as a result of a shortfall in margin relating to certain projects substantially completed by 31 December 2007.
With the exception of these historic projects, the Group is trading in line with expectations.
There will be minimal effect on future cash flow and net debt as the cash impact relating to these projects has already been absorbed.
