ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING (Meeting)
At today's Meeting (12 noon 24 July 2019), Chairman, Malcolm
Diamond MBE made the following statement on behalf of the Board to
shareholders present:
"In the year to March 2019, the Group continued to perform well
across all our regions, delivering another year of solid growth.
Our latest acquisition PTS, completed in April 2018, has settled in
well, with double-digit year-on-year revenue progression.
Our ongoing investment in the US is continuing to reward us with
very strong growth and new business wins across both the automotive
and electronics sectors. We are also pleased to confirm that
Project Atlas remains on track and on budget.
As previously reported, at the start of this financial year the
Group signed new GBP80m banking facilities, providing c.GBP38m of
increased headroom and, potential access to an extra GBP40m of
accordion facilities. This gives TR the flexibility to continue to
invest and follow its strategic aims, while also giving both
security and tenure of long-term funding.
As ever, the search for the next acquisition remains an
important objective for us. Our internal acquisition team is
working closely with external advisors in a number of key
geographies to help drive our ongoing aspirations in M&A.
There can be no doubt that the macroeconomic environment has
become more volatile over the last twelve months and the associated
uncertainty has manifested in lead times on production schedules
moving out on a number of new business wins. This has impacted the
start to FY2020, also marked by some instances of subdued demand in
certain specific geographies as well as the ongoing automotive
slowdown. However, we are pleased to report that our pipeline
remains solid and activity levels around the Group continue to be
encouraging.
We will continue to monitor market conditions closely, but at
this early stage our expectation for the year ahead remain
unchanged.
Our next trading update is to be released in October ahead of
half-yearly results which are scheduled to be released on Tuesday,
19 November 2019."
RESULT OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING (Meeting)
All resolutions put to Members at today's Meeting were duly
passed on a show of hands. The resolution proxy votes will be
provided on the Group's website, www.trifast.com. In accordance
with Listing Rule 9.6.2R, a copy of the resolutions passed as
Special Business at the AGM will be submitted to the National
Storage Mechanism (NSM) and available for inspection at
www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/nsm.
DIVIDEND
We remain committed to a progressive dividend policy. As is
always the case, the actual dividend each year needs to take in to
account our on-going strategy of investment driven growth, any
acquisitions and the working capital requirements of a growing
business. It is worthy of note that, over the last five years
dividends have grown from 1.40p to 4.25p, equating to a compound
annual growth rate ('CAGR') of 24.9%.
Following shareholder approval today at the AGM, a final
dividend of 3.05p per share will be paid on 11 October 2019 to
shareholders on the register at the close of business on 13
September 2019.
