Update re Preliminary Results / Annual Report and Accounts
Following the announcement made by the Company on 25 June 2009 (the "Announcement"), in which CAG stated its expectation that its Preliminary Results and Group Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2008 (together the "Results") would be published within four weeks of the date of the Announcement, the Board of Directors of CAG (the "Board") announces that a resolution of the technical issues identified in the Announcement is still being sought and the work to produce the Results is ongoing.
