Stephen Pickup, Group Managing Director, commented

“2013 has been a difficult year where, despite materially improved yields,
financial results have been dominated by falls in commodity prices. However, the
Group management team which came together in the fourth quarter 2013 is
committed to improving performance through the cost savings and the divestment
of poorly performing businesses.

“At the same time commodity pricing has improved which leads us to look forward
to 2014 with a positive outlook. The Group will focus on ensuring that the cost
cutting programme is successfully implemented, whilst exerting strict controls
and procedures, and building upon the operating successes. At the same time we
will continue to investigate ways of delivering maximum value to shareholders,
if appropriate through disposals.”
