Trading update

RTC today announces that whilst trading in the first half of 2016 was in line with expectations, the second half has seen delays in the commencement of infrastructure projects that are impacting our trading. These delays have affected the short term performance of ATA, primarily in their permanent vertical market activities.

As a consequence of these delays, the results for the full year are expected to be lower than current market expectations.

The directors expect these infrastructure projects to commence in the near future and they remain confident in the overall future prospects of the business.

Ganymede continues to perform well and in line with expectations.
