Pentagon Protection Plc ('Pentagon' or 'the Company')
AGM Statement
At their AGM, at 11am today in London, the Directors of Pentagon Protection PLC,
the provider of protective glazing products to the commercial and automotive
sectors, confirmed their confidence that the Company will meet market expectations
for the financial year 2004/5. This is despite greater than expected losses
generated in the first half of the year, stemming primarily from one cancelled
and one delayed commercial building order.
The Board's confidence in meeting full year expectations is underpinned by the
recent securing of a contract in Vienna valued at £650,000, current work in
progress exceeding £1m, and outstanding tenders extended to the value of
approximately £3m.
In addition to ongoing operations the Board has recently undertaken to review a
restructuring of under-performing divisions and explore possible acquisitions
that would complement the Company's competitiveness in the international
commercial building sector. The results of this review will be implemented
commencing the second half of the current fiscal year.
Speaking at the AGM Graham Bannerman, Chief Executive of Pentagon, commented 'As
a result of our first six months trading we have a clearer picture of the
strengths and opportunities in our business and are taking active steps to
ensure by the end of the current financial year the Company will be stronger,
fitter and globally more competitive'.
All resolutions were duly passed.
