FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 12 MARCH 2010

SANDERSON GROUP PLC

Result of AGM and EGM

Sanderson Group plc ("Sanderson" or "the Group"), the software and IT services business specialising in the multi-channel retail and manufacturing markets in the UK and Ireland, announces that all the ordinary and special resolutions contained within the Notice of Meeting and put before ordinary shareholders at both the Group's Annual General Meeting and Extraordinary General Meeting held yesterday, were duly passed.

In addition, the Chairman, Christopher Winn, made the following statement which had been made to the Stock Exchange at the opening of business.

"Following a strong finish to the 2009 financial year, I am pleased to report that the Group has made a good start to the current year. Encouragingly, the launch of the new 'Factory Automation' and 'Business Assurance' products and services have enabled the Group to win new customers.

By the end of February, five months into the current financial year, the Group has won more business from new customers than in the whole of the previous financial year. These new customers have been won across the Group and include MacSween (haggis maker), Piroto Labelling (print) and Bromford Industries (aerospace) in the Manufacturing division and Aquascutum, Hamleys and David Austin Roses in the Multi-Channel Retail division.

Order Intake, Revenues, Profitability and Cash Generation are ahead of the previous year and in line with management's expectations for the current year. However, with many of the Group's customers continuing to face tough trading conditions, with the impending General Election and with an uncertain economic outlook, we remain cautious but confident in our outlook for the rest of the financial year."
