INTERIM MANAGEMENT STATEMENT

HRG continues to see full-year performance in line with expectations

Ahead of today's Annual General Meeting, Hogg Robinson Group plc, the international corporate services company, announces its first Interim Management Statement for the year ending 31 March 2014, covering the period from 1 April 2013 to date.

Current trading and outlook

The Group has traded in line with our expectations during the period since the year end.

For the three months to 30 June 2013, revenue rose by 4% compared to prior year (up 1% at constant currency). Client travel activity was higher by 7% and client spend up by 6% (up 3% at constant currency) year on year, as we continued to help our clients maximise the value of their travel-related expenditure while delivering incremental cost savings to them.

As previously highlighted, the full-year performance will have a greater weighting towards the second half than was the case last year, reflecting the prior year first-half benefit of a technology agreement. Although we expect trading conditions in our industry to remain challenging, the Board believes HRG will continue to show good progress and deliver a full-year performance in line with market expectations.

UK pension scheme

In our full-year results announcement on 22 May 2013, we stated that we were in consultation with active members of the UK defined benefit scheme. Those discussions have now concluded and, as of 30 June, the scheme has been closed to future defined benefit accrual and the active members moved to a defined contribution section.

Financial position

HRG's financial position remains robust and cash generation across the Group has remained strong through the period.

There have been no material adverse events or transactions that have impacted the Group's financial position since 31 March 2013 save for the information provided in this statement.
