                                 Trading update


Anite Group plc, the European consultancy and services company, is today
announcing a trading update.

Trading has continued in line with the performance indicated at the time of the
Company's interim results for the six months ended 30 October 2001, announced on
4 December 2001. Strong organic growth continues to be achieved driven by good
order intake in the Company's core markets, as evidenced by recent contract wins
to the value of over £12 million which were announced on 29 January 2002.

Recent acquisitions, such as that of FSS, announced on 4 December 2001, are
being successfully integrated and are performing in line with management
expectations. Overall, the business continues to generate cash from operations,
is well managed and enjoys a sound balance sheet.

Anite's Chief Executive John Hawkins, commenting on the update, said:

'We continue to perform strongly and our business benefits from both being
geographically diversified and well balanced in strong core markets. We remain
confident that we will continue to outperform our sector.'
