Slimma plc

("Slimma" or "the Company")

AGM Statement

At the Annual General Meeting of the Company held today, all resolutions were duly passed. Carolyn Simons, Non-Executive Chairman gave the following update to shareholders:

"Despite the continuing nature of the problems experienced during our year ending September 2009 which were reported on in my Chairman's Statement, trading for the first five months of the current financial year is on target and ahead of our budget.

"We must caution shareholders that this does not imply that we have moved into a trading recovery. 

"Although for the first time in the last three years, we are seeing an increase in our key brands' Autumn Winter 2010 order books, and there are signs of additional bank credit being made available to our customers, we do not expect to see recovery until our financial year ending September 2011."
