NOVENTA LIMITED

("Noventa" or the "Company") (AIM: NVTA; PLUS: NV)

Release of Financial Results for the year to 31 December 2011,

Accounting Treatment of New Processing Plant

& Suspension of Trading of Shares on PLUS

6 June 2012

The Company expects to release its 2011 Annual Report and Financial Statements during the week commencing 18 June 2012.

Subject to final audit related matters, the Company anticipates that its property, plant and equipment, principally representing the new process plant at Marropino, will be subject to a material impairment. This impairment reflects the requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards.

The PLUS SX Quoted Market ("PLUS"), on which the both the Company's convertible redeemable £1 preference shares ("Preference Shares") and ordinary 0.8p shares ("Ordinary Shares") are admitted to trading , has a requirement that a Company announces its full year financial results within five months of the end of the financial year. As the Company has not announced its full year financial results in this timescale, its Preference Shares and Ordinary Shares were suspended from trading on PLUS with effect from 1 June 2012.

Trading of the Company's Ordinary Shares on AIM is not effected by the suspension of trading on PLUS. Under the AIM Rules the Company has six months to announce and post to shareholders its financial results for the full year.
