Victoria PLC

('Victoria,' the 'Company,' or the 'Group')

Trading Update 

Following their appointment at the General Meeting on 3rd October, the new Board of Directors has undertaken a detailed review of the current trading and short term prospects of Victoria PLC.  This review is continuing.  However, it is already apparent that the Company is likely to break even at best for the full year ending 4 April 2013, at a pre-tax level before exceptional costs.  Current trading, in both Australia and the UK remains weak and significantly behind budget.

The Directors wish to assure shareholders that they are doing everything they can to remedy the situation and a further update will be provided to the market in the Company's half year statement at the end of this month.
