Trading Statement RNS Number : 8781X Robinson PLC 17 January 2014
Robinson plc PRE CLOSE TRADING STATEMENT Robinson plc ("Robinson" or "the Group";; stock code: RBN), the custom manufacturer of plastic and paperboard packaging, today issues the following trading statement, prior to the announcement of its final results for the year ended 31 December 2013, which are scheduled to be released on 20 March 2014. Revenues are anticipated to be £23.4m for the year, which represents an 11% increase on last year. Plastic resin costs were on average around 6% higher than the previous year and these were mainly passed on to customers. Underlying sales volumes were 8% higher. The revenue increase has been achieved by a combination of new business gained within the reporting period together with the full year effect of the previous year's business wins. The Board anticipates the final results for 2013 will show further improved profitability, in line with expectations.
