Statement re: Press Comment

Sweett Group notes the press comment alleging an incident of improper business conduct by an employee of Cyril Sweett International dating back to 2009. These historical allegations are something the Company knew nothing about. In line with its policy to ensure rigorous investigation of allegations, the Group has appointed an independent external body to investigate them. The initial review of correspondence and project documentation shows no record of any request for, or payment of, facilitation fees of the nature alleged. A further announcement will be made as and when appropriate.
