Trading Update and Appointment of Chief Executive
Bidcorp Plc (the "Group") is re-evaluating the carrying values of its various
assets and liabilities and it is expected that this will result in a material
decline in its previously reported Net Asset Value.
Trading has been below expectation and the Group expects to make a loss for the
year ended 31 December 2001. Remedial action has been taken and the Board is
confident that operational improvements can be expected in the short term.
Rodger Graham, previously a non-executive director, has, with immediate effect,
assumed the role as Chief Executive of the Group.
