Trading Update

The Board of Christie Group plc (CTG.L), the leading provider of Professional & Financial Services and Stock & Inventory Systems & Services to the hospitality, leisure, healthcare, medical, childcare & education and retail sectors, has issued the following statement:

"Further to our trading update dated March 20th.

Our Stock & Inventory Systems & Services division's physical activities are now held in abeyance.

Pharmacy counts continue where we see it as supporting an essential sector.

The cloud based visitor attractions system remains fully operational, but understandably online traffic has slowed.

Our Professional & Financial Services division continues to provide a restricted volume of transactional and advisory services, where possible, through our online presence.

Overall, the majority of our UK staff have been placed upon grant aided furlough. Other government backed arrangements apply internationally. This is significant and welcome support where people costs are the substantive portion of our cost base.

We began the year trading normally but as a result of the Covid-19 induced restriction of trade our Group do not anticipate being profitable this year.

We believe that the Group's own resources, taken together with expected government backed support are sufficient to meet our cash requirements.

Our committed management and their core teams are doing their utmost to remain in a strong position to increase our levels of activity as conditions permit."
