Statement re share price movement

Trading update

Premier Technical Services Group PLC, the niche specialist services provider, notes the share price movement in recent weeks and confirms that it is not aware of any reason for such a movement.

As detailed in the announcement on 21 January 2019, results for the year ended 31 December 2018 are anticipated to be in line with the Board's expectations.

Net bank debt at 31 December 2018 was £11.9m (2017: £18.3m). Underlying trading cash conversion improved to 72% (2017: 65%) despite the working capital effect of underlying organic turnover growth during 2018 of 19%. The period benefitted from strong cash collection and improved debtor days on invoiced sales that equated to 88 days at the year end (2017: 97 days).

Trading during the first six weeks of the current year has been strong, and recent acquisitions are performing in line with management expectations.

The Company looks forward to providing more detail with its final results announcement on 26 March 2019.
