F W Thorpe Plc
Annual General Meeting statement
At the Annual General Meeting of F W Thorpe Plc, Chairman, Andrew Thorpe, will make the following statement.
"The last financial year, being the subject of this meeting, provided a satisfactory and somewhat pleasing result.
A financial commentator has recently reflected on a statement I had made in 2008, commenting that our Group, with its diverse market types and numerous specialised lighting sectors, benefitted from an inherent smoothing effect on "the sum of the whole".
I mention this now as currently we see a mild softening in some of our markets with others faring well.
The sum of the whole, we are confident will provide a satisfactory result for the current year."
