Pre-close trading update 

 

 

Future plc, the international special-interest media group, today provides a pre-close trading update ahead of its results for the year ending 30 September 2010 which will be announced on 24 November 2010.

 

The Board expects that the Group's results for the year to 30 September 2010 will be in line with market expectations. 

           

Trading patterns have continued to stabilise year on year, as outlined in our interim management statement of 3 August 2010 and our interim results on 20 May 2010.

 

The Group is making good progress in its strategy and continues to maintain flexibility in managing its portfolios; we expect this to serve us well through the continued uncertainty of the macro-economic environment. Overall, the Board remains confident that the Group is as well-positioned as it can be for the future.
