Capital Markets Update

"Accelerating growth"

Morgan Advanced Materials plc will hold a Capital Markets Update this afternoon in London for institutional investors and analysts.

The update will include presentations by our senior leadership team, focussing on the acceleration of our growth as a global manufacturer of advanced carbon and ceramic materials for complex and technologically demanding applications. 

The presentation will include a detailed explanation of our recently announced increase in investment into capacity for the Semiconductor market, as well as on the growth opportunities in our Core markets.

We will also set out our enhanced financial framework and re-iterate our capital allocation policy:

-	Accelerating Organic Revenue Growth. We expect to be towards the top of our 4% - 7% p.a. guidance range over the next four years with the investments we are making
-	Attractive Margins. 12.5% - 15% adjusted operating profit margin, with a clear path towards the top end of the range, underpinned by organic growth and business simplification
-	Delivering EPS Growth. Achieving enhanced growth in adjusted Earnings per Share, ahead of organic revenue growth, driven by a combination of organic growth, M&A and shareholder returns
-	Sustaining ROIC. 17% - 20% ROIC
-	Leverage Range. 1.0x to 1.5x, or up to 2.0x adjusted EBITDA post acquisition, utilising our strong balance sheet to fund our organic growth and incremental M&A

The presentation will be made available at www.morganadvancedmaterials.com at 14:00 today, along with a recording of the presentation that will be made available following the event.

No new information on current year trading will be shared at the event.
