Feedback PLC
Statement by the Chairman at the Annual General Meeting
At the Annual General Meeting held today the Chairman, David Harding, stated
that,
'Since the issue of the Annual Report and Accounts the Group has traded very
much as indicated in my statement. Although some of the business referred to
then has been confirmed, invoiced sales to date are running behind anticipated
levels because of continuing delays in the placing and finalising of
substantial business by customers, particularly with the Instruments and
TekniCAL Companies. At Feedback Data the subdued market conditions still
exist.
It is therefore likely, as with the same period last year, that the Group
interim results for the six months to the 30th September 2001 will disclose a
loss.
Negotiations with the Company's joint venture partner to acquire their 50%
shareholding in TekniCAL continue.
We continue to view our future prospects with confidence particularly as
within the educational side of the business all our products support Computer
Based Training and Computer Aided Learning, areas which are becoming
increasingly important to our customers because of the cost advantages over
traditional teaching methods. We believe that the quality and relevance of our
products together with the skills and expertise within the Group, make
Feedback well placed to service these growing markets.
I am pleased to announce that Mr David Sawyer, the President of our US
Subsidiary, is joining the Main Board as an Executive Director with effect
from 1st September 2001.'
There is no further information to be disclosed pursuant to rule 16.4 of the
Listing Rules of the UK Listing Authority.
