This announcement contains certain statements that are or may be
"forward-looking statements". These statements typically contain words such as
"intends", "expects", "anticipates", "estimates" and words of similar import.
All the statements other than statements of historical facts included in this
announcement, including, without limitation, those regarding Fenner's financial
position, business strategy, plans and objectives of management for future
operations (including development plans and objectives relating to Fenner's
products and services) are forward-looking statements. By their nature,
forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty because they relate to
events and depend on circumstances that will occur in the future and therefore
undue reliance should not be placed on such forward-looking statements. There
are a number of factors that could cause the actual results, performance or
achievements of Fenner or those markets and economies to be materially different
from future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are based on
numerous assumptions regarding Fenner's present and future business strategies
and the environment in which Fenner will operate in the future and such
assumptions may or may not prove to be correct. Forward-looking statements speak
only as at the date they are made. Neither Fenner nor Hoare Govett nor any other
person undertakes any obligation (other than, in the case of Fenner, pursuant to
the Listing Rules and the Disclosure and Transparency Rules of the UK Listing
Authority) to update publicly any of the information contained in this
announcement, including any forward-looking statements, in the light of new
information, change in circumstances or future events.
