Trading Update

Nakama Group plc (AIM: NAK), the AIM quoted recruitment consultancy working across UK, Europe and Asia providing recruitment and related services for the web, interactive, digital media, IT and business change sectors, is today providing a trading update, based on the Group's "flash" results for the third quarter of the financial year ending 31 March 2019.

During the third quarter the Group's Asian trading performance fell below management's expectations, generating less revenue than had been projected, which materially affected the Group's profitability. As a result, the Company's third quarter was loss making, resulting in the Company achieving breakeven over the first three quarters of the current financial year (having announced an interim profit before tax of GBP186,000 for the six months ended 30 September 2018).

Since the start of the new calendar year the Group has seen an improved performance from all its offices, with more client activity and contractor demands. Management will continue to implement tighter controls, forecasting and operational efficiencies.
