                                 TRADING UPDATE



Huveaux is today making the following trading update ahead of its half-year
results announcement which is expected to be made on 26 July.


While EBITDA for 2007 is expected to slightly exceed the level achieved in 2006,
this is below current market expectations.


Healthcare Division

Our Healthcare Division in France has seen a significant drop in sales revenue
as compared to the first half of 2006. This is as a direct result of
pharmaceutical companies cutting their advertising budgets across the board in
response to the sharp rise in generic drugs. The revenues from our Continuing
Medical Education accredited publications and other product offerings have
started to flow through, but these have not been sufficient to offset the impact
from the decline in pharmaceutical advertising. Accordingly, the outlook for the
year is that sales and EBITDA of the Healthcare Division will be significantly
lower than in 2006.


Nevertheless, the expected performance of the Healthcare Division in 2007 will
still give at least a 15% pre-tax return on the original cost of acquisition -
significantly in excess of our cost of capital.


Political Division

The Political Division continues to make progress with good organic revenue
growth. Its market-leading positions in London, Paris and Brussels continue to
be strengthened and the outlook for the year remains very positive.


Learning Division

This division has been impacted by training budget cuts in Government
Departments during the first half of 2007. Sales have started to recover during
the past few weeks and the outlook is for a strong second half performance.
Nevertheless, for 2007 as a whole, sales and EBITDA are likely to be lower than
in 2006.


Education Division

The Education Division is making very good progress with strong organic growth
in both sales and EBITDA. Under Huveaux's new ownership, the historic revenue
decline at Letts has been reversed and Lonsdale's sales are up significantly on
last year, including an encouraging increase in Science curriculum sales. Leckie
& Leckie has also produced an outstanding performance with record profits and
increased market share driven by an expanded portfolio. The 2007 outlook for the
Education Division is therefore excellent.


The Company continues to make strategic progress in key areas and is strongly
committed to increasing shareholder value. Accordingly, the complementary
acquisition of the European Public Affairs Directory was completed in May and
our small contract publishing business in the Healthcare Division was sold in
June. A review of our paper and print costs is also likely to have a beneficial
effect on the 2008 results.


Management has initiated a recovery programme and further details will be
included in the half-year results announcement.
