"The financial year to 31 March 2015 was very successful for Energy Assets with good organic growth across our asset portfolio. Our Siteworks business also benefitted from strong trading and expanded activities.
During the first quarter of the new financial year the asset portfolio owned and managed increased to circa 388,000, compared to circa 365,000 as at 31 March 2015, and our Siteworks activities continue to make good progress. The three new businesses acquired in the previous financial year, Bglobal Metering, Origin and SA Gas, are now fully integrated into the Group and are performing well under Energy Assets management.
Trading in the current financial year is in line with management expectations and the Group is on track to deliver another year of solid growth.
The Board looks forward to updating shareholders further following the publication of our Half Year Report for the six months ending 30 September 2015 which will be released on 10 November 2015."
