Outlook

Joe Grimmond, Executive Chairman, comments: "Since the year end, the Group has completed the acquisition on the 4th May 2022 of Film & Foil Solutions Ltd ("Film and Foil") and on 30th May 2022 of Alma Products Ltd ("Alma Products") (see announcements of the same dates) and sales from the existing subsidiaries continue to improve. Whilst it is still early in our current year and despite a great deal of uncertainty surrounding the macroeconomic circumstances, we are confident our current performance; the performance of our new subsidiaries and very strong cash position, even after funding the acquisitions, will see our Group continue to further develop."
