CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
Results and Operations
Tex Group sales for the 12 months to 31st December 2008 amounted to £35.8 million compared with £36.9 million in 2007. As with much of the economy, the sharp downturn in trading occurred in the third quarter.
Pre-tax profit earned in 2008 was £399k compared with £1,226k in 2007. The pre-tax profit is after the reorganisation costs of £377k incurred in the Boards & Panels Division.
The Plastics Division and the Boards & Panels Division were both impacted by the economic downturn with customer demand down as they reacted to the trading conditions. Conversely the performance of the Engineering Division was not significantly impacted by the economic trading conditions, as a result of a number of large contracts.
Prospects and Dividend
Business levels in the early months of 2009 have broadly commenced in line with the lowered expectations as a result of the lowered customer demand levels. However the Engineering Division continues to trade at similar levels to last year. The Group order book is in line with the previous year at £10.6m (2007: £10.5m), but demand for the second half is difficult to judge.
The Board feels able to recommend a final dividend of 1.0 pence (2007: 4.0 pence) which would make a total of 5.5 pence in 2008 (2007: 7.5 pence). The final dividend will be paid, subject to shareholder approval, on 24th July 2009 to members on the register as at 19th June 2009.
Staff
It has been a busy and demanding year requiring a number of difficult decisions, and I would like to thank staff at all levels in the Group for their contribution.
