INTERIM MANAGEMENT STATEMENT 
 
 
 
 
UK Mail Group plc today issues the following Interim Management Statement 
covering the period 1 October 2009 to 31 December 2009. 
 
 
The third quarter has seen good progress, with the overall group trading 
performance slightly ahead of our expectations. 
 
 
Group revenues for the period increased by approximately 4% year-on-year. 
 
 
Our parcels business has returned to revenue growth, the first year-on-year 
increase since the first quarter of the previous financial year, with good 
volume growth partly offset by continued pricing pressures. 
 
 
Our mail business has continued to grow its revenues, benefitting from some 
early signs of improvement in the levels of more discretionary mailings that had 
suffered as a result of the economic downturn. 
 
 
Specialist Services has also returned to overall revenue growth, with an 
improving trend in both our Courier and Pallets businesses. 
 
 
As a result of this good trading performance, we now expect that profits for the 
year ended March 2010 will be slightly ahead of previous expectations.
