Daniel Stewart Securities plc

("Daniel Stewart" or "the Company")

Unaudited Interim Results for the period ended 30 September 2015

Daniel Stewart Securities plc (AIM:DAN), the investment bank providing corporate advisory, institutional stockbroking and wealth management services, announces unaudited Interim Results for the period ended 30 September 2015.

As previously announced the Company's shares remain suspended from trading on the AIM market pending completion of the final audit for the financial year ended 31 March 2015. Additionally, the Company announced on 21 December 2015 that Beaumont Cornish Limited has resigned as the Company's Nominated Adviser ("Nomad").

As the Company's shares remain suspended from trading on AIM and in accordance with AIM Rule 1, if the Company fails to appoint a replacement Nomad within one month of the date of the Nomad's resignation, admission of the Company's shares to trading on AIM will be cancelled. If no replacement Nomad can be found within the given timeframe, the Board will explore options to either join another market, and/or to put in place a matched bargain facility to enable Shareholders to trade.
