About Worthington Nicholls Group plc

Worthington Nicholls operates as principal contractor for delivery of end to end
solutions in the air conditioning market.

Its blue-chip clients operate in a number of different market sectors and
include Hilton Hotels, Holiday Inn Hotels, Debenhams, Boots the Chemist, Arcadia
and McDonald's.

The business was established in 1973 by Peter Worthington and has grown to be
one of the dominant players in the UK Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning
('HVAC') market, which is currently estimated to be worth approximately £2
billion per annum.

Led by Mark Worthington, the Company repositioned itself in 2003 as a support
services group, moving away from the subcontractor business model common across
the HVAC industry.  The Company now offers a full project management capability,
which includes survey, design and specification, through installation,
commissioning and ongoing service and maintenance.
