Trading Update

Tyman PLC ("Tyman" or the "Group"), a leading international supplier of engineered components and access solutions to the construction industry, issues the following trading update for the period from 1 July 2019 to date.

Current trading and outlook

Reported revenue and adjusted operating profit for the full year are expected to be ahead of 2018 and in line with current market expectations(1) . Leverage(2) at 31 December 2019 is expected to be below 2.0x adjusted EBITDA.

This performance is despite our markets generally remaining challenging, with European and UK markets having weakened since the half year results on 25 July. North American markets continue to be broadly flat with no clear signs yet of a return to higher activity levels.

AmesburyTruth is making progress on resolving the operational issues at the Statesville facility, with delivery performance to our customers improving and no further material loss of customers or business related to the US footprint project. We continue to assess options for the re-instatement of supply of the legacy door seal product. ERA has introduced further important new products into the marketplace, building on the successful launches in the first half of the year. SchlegelGiesse has made an encouraging start to reducing its overall cost base in response to evolving market conditions.

Jo Hallas, Chief Executive of Tyman, commented: "For the full year we expect reported revenue and adjusted operating profit to be ahead of 2018, assisted by contributions from last year's acquisitions and the strength of the US dollar against sterling. Whilst our main markets remain challenging, we are pleased with the progress being made in our operational performance in North America, with both customer service levels and productivity showing an improving trend."
