I know the dividend is peanuts but hey webis did the same turnaround from loss to profit last week and there shares rose more than 100% in 3 days. Are investors in sectorguard asleep? Fine to me, happy to pay at a price thas surely has bottomed out for a company that changes profit to loss during a recession! The majority of ftse 100 companies like for like cannot match this.

the directors bought shares at 2p to raise additional working capital - for a company who expect to release results above market expections it seems a strange move - perhaps the results will clear the muddy water - i hope that all investors will soon be put in the picture with good results but delayed results do not inspire confidense

From the interims

Current trading and future outlook

The business is continuing to develop across all its divisions and now that the
integration of the electro-technical business units into one cohesive body is
taking shape I anticipate significant organic growth from this side of the
business. We have already generated significant income from the Data Protection
Suite and there have been a number of exciting opportunities for developing new
business by the improved ability to offer a total security solution package for
potential clients, especially on larger tenders.

The security personnel division is progressing strongly. The major challenge for
this division since 1 October has been the increase in statutory holiday
entitlement from 4 weeks to 4.8 weeks, this has an impact on staff resources as
additional staff will need to be recruited to cover a 20% increase in holiday.

In addition to our investment in ISO 14001 and Investors In People
accreditations, we have been developing a number of initiatives which have
increased our involvement with the security and wider community. We have been
developing an initiative with the City of London Mounted Police, which increases
their profile within local communities to try and build respect for the law and
the police with younger members of the community. Perhaps the most exciting
initiative is the SectorGuard Anglo American Exchange programme, which is open
to all members of the UK security profession and aims to raise standards within
the sector by facilitating an exchange programme between UK and US based
security operatives, sharing knowledge and procedures.

I am confident that the investment made over the past 18 months will lead to
increased business across all our divisions. Brand awareness has been increased
as a result of both our marketing and business development efforts, this in turn
is generating new business opportunities.

We are currently exploring a number of substantial acquisition opportunities in
the security personnel sector, which we hope to update shareholders on in the
near future. Following successful completion, we would then anticipate focusing
our energies on building the business organically.

Pre-Close Trading Update (Sectorguard)




RNS Number:9356P
SectorGuard PLC
12 March 2008

SectorGuard Plc / Ticker: SGD / Index: AIM / Sector: Support Services



12 March 2008

SectorGuard Plc ('SectorGuard' or 'the Company')

Pre-Close Trading Statement



SectorGuard Plc, the AIM listed total security solutions group, is pleased to
announce a pre-close trading update for the year ended 31 March 2007. As
highlighted in the interims, SectorGuard has grown its turnover year on year
since 1998 and this trend is expected to continue. The Company has invested
significantly in expansion initiatives, such as increased marketing, which are
now paying dividends in the form of strong current trading and future pipeline.
The acquisitions made over the last two years have been integrated successfully,
widening the geographic reach of the business and contributing to the Company's
financial performance.



During the current period, the Company has won a number of new contracts across
its four key divisions, the largest being a manned guarding contract with
Goldsmiths College, University of London, which further strengthens its position
in the education sector. It also renewed its service agreement with JD Sports
for the maintenance of CCTV and intruder alarm systems and was awarded security
service contracts with clients as diverse as BioPark Hertfordshire, Exxon Mobil,
Centrepoint and One Housing Group.



As well as winning new contracts, the Company has further expanded its service
offering and, during the year, Baroness Ruth Henig, chairman of the Security
Industry Authority, opened SectorGuard's Data Protection Suite. This facility
allows the Company to act as data co-ordinator for its clients and assists them
in meeting the requirements of the Data Protection Act.



In addition, the Company is pushing the boundaries of excellence having won
various key accreditations as well as renewing its existing accreditations.
SectorGuard was re-awarded its Approved Contractor Scheme ("ACS") status for the
private security industry, further improving on its scoring against the ACS
quality benchmarks and has achieved Investors in People accreditation. It is
also aiming to be one of the first security service providers to be accredited
with ISO 14001, Environmental Management Systems. This makes a powerful
statement about the Company's environmental credentials, which the directors
believe will increase access to new customers and business partners and will be
reflected in a stronger and more sustainable business.



Furthermore, SectorGuard was named as a 'Best Practice Champion' by the
Institute of Association Management, having started an Anglo-American exchange
programme for security officers from the UK and the USA to share best practice
in professional methods, training and management between the two countries.



SectorGuard CEO David Marks said: "We have put in a strong trading performance
and I look forward to delivering our results, which should reflect the progress
we have made and should exceed market expectations. The UK market demand for all
security products is growing rapidly driven by the threat of terrorism and
rising levels of crime and disorder. SectorGuard, with its broad range of
security services, is ideally positioned to take advantage of this growth as
highlighted by its recent contract wins. Our initiatives put in place last year
are now bearing fruit and we are positive about 2008 and beyond."

Cannot really see how things will have changed dramatically from the 'pre close' TU. See below.
