CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

Group turnover for the six months to 30th June 2015 was similar to the same period in the previous year, with the pre-tax profit also remaining consistent with 2014.

With the exception of the Plastics Division, all divisions saw a decrease in sales compared to the first six months of 2014. Within the Engineering Division, this is as a result of the timing of projects and turnover is expected to recover. 

Profits in the Plastics Division continue to improve due to mix of work and control of overheads. Engineering was a mixed picture with BSP under-performing their previous year's result. The level of quotations remains at the historic levels, but the conversion to orders has deteriorated, with customers deferring making decisions. Eurotex and Tex Engineering are trading in line with expectations. Tex ATC division has recently won contracts in Oman for the supply of control rooms and these should be dispatched in the current trading year.

The order book at the half year was in line with 2014.

The current political turmoil in the world tempers any optimism that the Board could draw from the first half results. It is anticipated the full year trading will be consistent with recent full year results.

The Board are also conscious of the impact a significant drop in the FTSE would have on the Pension Scheme deficit and therefore the Group balance sheet.

As with previous years, cash and cost control remains a corporate priority.

The Board is proposing to pay an interim dividend of 2.0 pence (2014: 2.0 pence) which will be paid on 6th October 2015 to shareholders on the register as at 11th September 2015.
