AGM Statement

Chamberlin, the specialist castings and engineering group, will be holding its Annual General Meeting today, and Keith Butler-Wheelhouse, Chairman, will provide the following update on current trading:

"The Company has made a good start to the new financial year with sales in the first three months slightly ahead of management expectations. We have made additional investment at our new machining facility to support the increasing volumes and, accordingly, first half costs will reflect this.

"I am also pleased to highlight a major new contract signed by our foundry operation in the period with an existing customer, a leading European supplier of components and parts to the automotive industry. Worth EUR3.7 million over its seven year term, the contract commences towards the end of 2019 and will replace an existing programme at Walsall for the same customer, which is coming to the end of its life cycle. The award underlines our technical expertise and high service standards as well as our strong customer relationships.

"The Board looks forward to providing a further update on trading in due course."
