ASX RELEASE

INTERIM EARNINGS UPDATE

Envirozel Limited (ASX: EVZ) anticipates its unaudited Earnings before Interest and Tax (EBIT) for the six months to 31 December 2008 to be in the range of $2.3m to $2.8m. The EBIT for the corresponding period to 31 December 2007 was $5.18m.

This Half-Year EBIT result is based on internal management accounts and is prior to impairment consideration and audit review.

At this stage EVZ expects to release its Half-Yearly Accounts on 27 February 2009.

EVZ Chairman, Mr Max Findlay noted:

“As previously advised at the Company’s Annual General Meeting in November 2008, the Company’s steel fabricating business, National Engineering, has been significantly impacted by the current economic conditions. Whilst National Engineering negatively contributed to the Half-Year operating result, Management has undertaken a restructure of this business with the objective of turning around its performance.

Despite this adverse economic climate and the tightening of margins all remaining businesses in the Group continue to operate profitably”.
