Interim Accounts for Dividend Purposes

Journey Group plc (the "Company") today announces that it has, in accordance with the requirements of section 838(6) of the Companies Act 2006, delivered interim accounts for the Company for the 12 months ending 31 December 2012 (the "Interim Accounts") to the registrar of companies.

Shareholders should note that the Interim Accounts have been prepared solely to establish that the Company has sufficient distributable reserves and to satisfy the relevant requirements of the Companies Act 2006. Accordingly, the Interim Accounts are not directly comparable with any other results or accounts announced by the Company and do not constitute an announcement of interim results of the Company.

The Interim Accounts are unaudited. The Interim Accounts are not consolidated accounts and only include the results, cash flows and assets and liabilities of the Company; the Interim Accounts do not include the results, cash flows, assets and liabilities of the Company's subsidiaries. The Interim Accounts have been prepared to demonstrate that the Company has sufficient distributable reserves to (subject to approval by the Company's shareholders) make the final dividend to be recommended by the Company's directors to the Company's shareholders at the forthcoming annual general meeting of the Company.
