Manroy PLC

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
1 August 2013
MANROY PLC ("MANROY" OR THE "GROUP")
TRADING UPDATE
Manroy, the AIM quoted UK defence contractor, today provides a trading update for the financial year ending 30 September 2013.
Summary
There has recently been a change in status of approved export licenses affecting one customer of the Group, a delay in delivery timing of one contract until after the September 2013 year end and a delay in finalising contract conditions for a recently won order.
The impact of these contract delays is that the Board now expects revenue for the year ending 30 September 2013 to be in the region of GBP9.0m against market forecasts of GBP12.0m.
Licenses
Previously granted export licenses for a region in North Africa have recently been revoked by the UK Government. Therefore delivery of these orders cannot be fulfilled, which has reduced current year revenue by GBP0.6m.
Delivery timing
Manroy was scheduled to deliver its first sizeable production order of General Purpose Machine Guns (GPMGs) in the second half of the current year ending 30 September 2013. Completion of new production techniques has taken longer than anticipated, meaning that this order will now be fulfilled in part in the current financial year and in part the first quarter of the year ending 30 September 2014. This reduces expected revenues for the year ending 30 September 2013 by GBP1.0m.
Finalising contract conditions
Due to the recent finalisation of contractual conditions with a new customer, GBP1.4m of expected revenue in the year ending 30 September 2013 is now expected to occur in the first quarter of the year ending 30 September 2014.
UK order book
The current order book for the UK Group stands at GBP15.0m, up from GBP9.6m at the 30 September 2012 year end.
Glyn Bottomley, Manroy's Chief Executive, said; "These events are very frustrating and overshadow the significant growth in Manroy's order book and product expansion during the year. I am disappointed that the growth in our order book and product range will not be reflected in the financial results for the year ending 30 September 2013."
