("Norcon" or the "Company")

Trading Update

The Board of Norcon Plc is pleased to announce, that revenue for the year ended 31 December 2015 is expected to be similar to that recorded in the year ended 31 December 2014. The benefits of the last few years of restructuring are beginning to be felt which, along with the delayed projects from the first half contributing, means that the Board expects to report stronger margins and a significantly better performance in the second half. This is expected to result in a profit before tax for the full year following a loss before tax of $0.2m in the first half. The Board is pleased with the performance in the second half of the year which bodes well for 2016 and notes that its business in the Middle East has not been impacted by the lower oil price. The Group retains a healthy balance sheet and looks to the future with confidence.
