AGM Statement

Dart Group PLC is pleased to announce that all of the ordinary and special resolutions proposed at today's Annual General Meeting were approved.

Commenting on current trading, Philip Meeson, Group Chairman and Chief Executive, said:

"In the Preliminary Results Statement of 26 June 2014, I stated that in the early summer months we had found demand for leisure travel to the markets we serve less buoyant than we would have hoped  and market pricing weak. I am now pleased to say, however, that more recently we have seen some uplift in the market which has been encouraging, although it is still too early to judge whether this will have a sustainable effect on ticket yields.

In terms of winter 14/15 Leisure Travel bookings, early indications are satisfactory.

Fowler Welch, our Distribution & Logistics business, continues to focus on growing its revenue pipeline and delivering operational efficiency improvements.

Overall, the Board remains optimistic in relation to meeting current market expectations for operating profit for the financial year ending 31 March 2015 and will provide a further update in mid-October following the half year end."
