Trading Update

Full year results anticipated significantly ahead of expectations

Billington Holdings plc (AIM: BILN), one of the UK's leading structural steel and construction safety solutions specialists, is pleased to provide an update on trading ahead of its interim results for the 6-months to 30 June 2016.

The Group's performance has continued to improve during the first half of 2016 and the order book has continued to strengthen, providing good visibility beyond the end of the current financial year. Furthermore, good early progress has been made at Shafton Steel following the acquisition of the site in December 2015.

As a result of the above, the Board anticipates that results for the year to 31 December 2016 will be significantly ahead of current market expectations.

The Board looks forward to further updating shareholders at the time of the interim results, which will be announced before the end of September 2016.
