FISH PLC
AGM Statement and Board Change
Since the Group reported preliminary results in February, trading has continued
to improve across the Group's estate throughout March and early April, following
a slow start to the year. Those sites with outdoor terrace seating, such as
Borough, Canary Wharf and Guildford, have benefited from healthy trade as a
result of the early Spring sunshine.
Two additional sites have been opened in Berners Street (London W1) and St
Albans and early signs are encouraging in both locations, bringing the Group's
total number of restaurants to 20.
The Directors are increasingly encouraged that there is evidence of a return in
consumer confidence and the Board remains confident that management can restore
shareholder value over the months ahead.
Jeremy Ormerod, Finance Director, has decided to leave the Group to pursue his
other interests. Jeremy has been with the Group since 1993 when he joined
Cutty, the Group's specialist food preparation division, to oversee its
financial and operational affairs. He has held various posts within the Group,
latterly as Finance Director. The Board has identified Jeremy's successor and
will make an announcement as soon as practicable.
Additionally, it is the Board's intention to appoint an additional Non Executive
Director in due course.
