Warner Estate Holdings PLC 08 September 2005 Warner Estate Holdings PLC CHAIRMAN'S AGM STATEMENT Speaking at today's Annual General Meeting of Warner Estate Holdings PLC ("Warner Estate"), the property investment company, the Chairman, Philip Warner made the following statement, " I am pleased to report good progress since our full year results were announced in June. At that time the offer for Ashtenne Holdings had been declared wholly unconditional and the £256 million Apia Regional Office Fund had been established with Morley Fund Management. These events confirmed our ability to attract institutional support and increased our property assets under management to just under £2billion. The integration of Ashtenne is going smoothly and the programme of disposal of surplus properties is underway. We continue to strengthen our asset management team by attracting high calibre individuals and we are well placed to make the most of opportunities in our enlarged portfolio. " We have now delivered 34 years of dividend growth, an achievement of which all the staff can be rightly proud. I remain confident of continuing progress." -ends- Date: 8 September 2005 For further information contact: Warner Estate Holdings PLC City Profile Philip Warner, Chairman Simon Courtenay Tel: 020-7907-5100 Oliver Winters Web: www.warnerestate.co.uk Tel: 020-7448-3244 This information is provided by RNS The company news service from the London Stock Exchange
