Interim results are unaudited, but the 1996 full year's figures are from the
auditied published accounts.

The figures for the first six months always give a misleading indication of
prospects for the full year.  There are many uncertain factors which preclude a
firm prediction of the 1997 profit.

This statement is sent directly to the holded of listed securities.  Copies are
available for members of the public at the company's registered office.
