Northbridge Industrial Services Plc.

("Northbridge" or the "Group")

AGM Statement

Northbridge, the industrial services and rental company will today hold its AGM at 12:00 noon at the offices of Buchanan Communications, 107 Cheapside, London EC2V 6DN. Peter Harris, the Chairman of Northbridge will make the following statement on the Group's current trading and outlook:

"As we indicated at the time of our Preliminary Results in April, demand for our manufactured units has continued to be buoyant during the first five months of 2012, with 61% of the sales order target for the year already secured. The rental market for testing and commissioning equipment in Europe and some other markets continues to be challenging, but recent rental contract wins in Australia for oil tools, which have been previously announced will produce good revenue into the second half. In addition our new transformer rental and loadcell businesses are performing well and, being more seasonal, will also make a stronger contribution as the year progresses. Although there is still uncertainty for the World economic outlook, we remain on course to meet market expectations for 2012".
