**28 April 2023, London: The Directors of MBH Corporation plc ("MBH"), a diversified investment holding company, are pleased to release the annual report for the year ended 31 December 2022, following a year that saw the business community emerge from a challenging business period. MBH achieved a sales growth of 31% to GBP142.8 million with strong demand for the Group company’s products and services (Revenue 2021: GBP108.8 million). However, higher costs of doing business resulted in an Earnings Before Interest and Taxes (EBIT) decrease of 34% to GBP3.4 million.**  **Net profit after tax was GBP2.2 million compared to the previous year 2021 of GBP0.1 million. The financial figures include the results of 23 companies for the full financial year ended 31 December 2022.**

**Solid financial position**

The balance sheet of the Group remains very strong, with a 2022 year-end net asset position of GBP71.7 million, an increase of 14% over 2021. The Group's cash position remains healthy and in 2022 generated GBP3.6 million in cash flow from the Group's operating activities. As in 2022, Cash generation will continue to be a focus for the Group in 2023.

**Group Verticals Performance**

The revenue increase of 31% was led primarily by the Group’s Construction and Engineering verticals - due to effective business development activities and a large order book. The Construction, Leisure and Education verticals collectively represent 86% of the Group’s total revenue and 94% of total Group’s EBIT.
