ZOO DIGITAL GROUP PLC

("ZOO" or "the Group")

AGM STATEMENT

At ZOO's Annual General Meeting to be held later today, Roger Jeynes, Chairman, will make the following statement:

"At the time of our final results announced in July of this year, we stated that the Company had returned to profitability in the second half of the year, and I am pleased to confirm that this has continued through the start of the new financial year.

"Our most dominant market, the filmed entertainment industry, appears to have reached a certain level of stability after a prolonged period of turbulence, which has led to improved levels of throughput to ZOO.

"At the same time, we continue to develop existing and new products to meet our clients' needs and target new sources of income, as can be evidenced through the recent introduction of ZOOsubs, our software as a service subtitling tool.

"We continue to view the current year with optimism, although we must remain cautious given the unpredictability of markets in the current economic environment."

A short presentation on the Company's capabilities will be given by Stuart Green, CEO of ZOO, during the AGM. A copy of the presentation will be available on the Company's website (www.zoodigital.com) subsequent to the meeting.

The Group's largest customers include major Hollywood studios, for which the production, marketing and distribution of titles in numerous formats across many geographies and languages has previously been a lengthy, costly and largely manual process.
