Trading Statement

The Directors of PCFG, the AIM quoted finance house, are pleased to announce that:

·; The Group's results for the year ended 31 March 2010 will be released on 29 June 2009

·; The results are expected, subject to audit, to be in line with market expectations

·; Our portfolio of receivables, which is well spread over 19,400 customers, performed well through the recession and maintained an improving trend during the quarter ended 31 March 2010

·; Management are pleased with the quality and margins we are achieving on new business originations

CEO Scott Maybury said, "Our products are very much in demand thanks to reduced competition within our sector, however the availability of senior debt funding limits our ability to take advantage of the current favourable conditions. We remain highly selective in our underwriting and focused on improving margins to ensure that our portfolio of finance receivables is well spread and of robust quality."
