Release to Australian Stock Exchange

Monday, 13 August 2007

The Directors of Saferoads Holdings Limited advise that the final full year accounts for the year ending 30 June 2007 were released to the market today.

The Board is delighted to announce that all performance indicators exceeded forecast. Revenue increased by more than 50% compared with 2005-06 and gross profit and net operating profit margins were maintained. Revenue from organic growth increased by 35% over the prior year. The Company also successfully integrated its first acquisition, the Swift Tech group, during 2006-07.

The Company’s future growth strategy is to combine strong organic growth with strategic acquisitions. Our organic growth objective for 2007-08 is to increase sales by 15% over 200607, whilst maintaining our relative profit margins.

The Board extends a welcome to Mr Richard Purser, who recently joined the Company as General Manager. Mr Purser has extensive experience in the road safety industry and we believe his management skills and expertise will significantly enhance the future growth of Saferoads.

The Board is pleased to announce that a final dividend of 4.5 cents per share, fully franked, will be paid on 7 November 2007. With the interim dividend of 3.5 cents per share, fully franked, paid on 4 April 2007, this brings the total dividend payments for the 2006-07 full year to 8 cents per share, fully franked.
