Dart Group PLC ('the Group')
Trading Statement
Dart Group PLC, the aviation and distribution group, updates on current trading
ahead of year end on 31 March 2008.
Whilst Fowler Welch-Coolchain, the Group's distribution business, continues to
perform well, winter trading in the aviation business has not met expectations.
In the winter season, the forecast growth in passenger volumes has not been
achieved and similar volumes to last year are now expected to be carried. The
resultant lower yield and load factors have reduced the winter revenue
expectations by about 6% with a consequential reduction in the Group's expected
pre-tax profits for the year.
