Trading Update

Chamberlin, the specialist castings and engineering group, is pleased to announce an update on trading for the financial year to 31 March 2017.

Results for the year are expected to be in line current market forecasts, with a strengthened performance in the second half. In particular, underlying profitability will be ahead of the prior year.

The Company's new machining facility in Walsall was officially opened at the end of March, and is expected to help drive additional growth opportunities as well as support existing contracts. As planned, the foundry in Leicester was taken out of production at the end of February 2017, and the decommissioning process is anticipated to conclude by the end of calendar year 2017.

The outlook for Chamberlin's continuing progress remains very positive and the Board looks forward to providing a further update on trading towards the end of May 2017 with the publication of the Company's preliminary results.
