Post close trading update

The Board of Directors of Christie Group plc (CTG.L), the leading provider of Professional & Financial Services and Stock & Inventory Systems & Services to the hospitality, leisure, healthcare, medical, childcare & education and retail sectors, has issued the following statement:

"The Board of Christie Group plc is pleased to announce that following a period of stronger trading and increased revenue it will (subject to forthcoming audit) have generated an operating profit, after restructuring costs, for the second half of the year ended 31st December 2020.

After successful reorganisation of two of its trading businesses, the Group has entered 2021 with the benefit of lower operating costs.

The Group's licensed stocktaking business, Venners, is currently supressed due to the governments' closure of the hospitality sector. Staff are on furlough pending the reopening of hospitality.

Our Agency & Advisory practice, Christie & Co, is currently experiencing an increase in demand from insolvency practitioners whilst business buyer demand remains very strong.

In view of the current lockdowns in the UK & Europe, we envisage our trading for 2021 will be weighted to the second half.

Our closing cash position is ahead of expectation and we remain well resourced."
