Trading statement

Notice of Final Results

The Board of Judges is pleased to update shareholders on the Group's trading performance for the financial year ended 31 December 2015.

As reported at the half year the Group experienced a difficult first quarter, with order intake recovering to a satisfactory level in the second quarter. This improvement in order intake across the Group was sustained throughout H2 2015. Consequently the Board anticipates that the final results will show a return to organic sales growth with trading comfortably in line with market expectations.

The year 2016 has started with a solid order book at 11.9 weeks (organic: 11.4 weeks against 9.9 weeks at the start of 2015) and a more encouraging outlook on exchange rates.

The Board expects to announce the Company's full year results for the year ended 31 December 2015 on 22 March 2016.
