Trading Update


Following the close of its 2009 financial period, ServicePower is pleased to report that it expects to finish the year with revenues in excess of management's previous expectations. Additionally, the Board expects to report a net cash balance of approximately £3.5 million at the year end.


As previously announced in our interim results announcement, the Board undertook a substantial restructuring programme which is expected to result in considerable costs savings for the Company and a more suitable cost base going forward. This restructuring programme will result in a one off exceptional charge of approximately £0.9 million in the Company's forthcoming 2009 annual results.  Additionally, the Company expects to report a foreign exchange loss of approximately £1.2 million, and as a result of a change in revenue mix during the financial year due to two existing client contracts operating on a margin below our traditional growth margin, there will be a £0.6 million shortfall against management's previous expectations.


Mark Duffin, CEO, ServicePower said, "With a substantially reduced cost base following on the restructuring and a healthy pipeline of new orders we look forward to the future with confidence."
