                                    ASOS plc
                               ('ASOS or Group')
                   A leading Internet based fashion retailer

               Trading Statement for the year ended 31 March 2007


*         ASOS.com sales for the 12 months to 31 March 2007 up 111% to £38.4m

*         Group profit before tax and exceptional items expected to be slightly
          ahead of market expectations

*         Sales for the 4 weeks to 26 April 2007 up 102% on last year


Nick Robertson, the Chief Executive, made the following comments.

'I am pleased to report another strong year. Whilst we are reporting a 111%
increase in sales, it should be noted that the comparative year was affected by
the Buncefield fuel depot explosion in December 2005. We believe a figure of 80%
would more accurately reflect the performance of the business.

In March 2007 ASOS.com recorded its highest traffic levels ever, with over 
2 million unique visitors to the website.

We remain optimistic about the prospects of ASOS.com and early signs are that
2007/8 should be another strong year of growth for the company. Sales for the 4
weeks to 27 April are 102% ahead of last year.'

Final results for the year to 31 March 2007 will be released in the week
commencing 9 July 2007.

Exceptional items in the year include a receipt of £570,000 insurance proceeds
relating to the Buncefield fuel depot explosion and a charge of £239,000
relating to the closure of Entertainment Marketing (UK) Ltd.

In the final results for the year ended 31 March 2007 the presentation of sales
will change to include £4.3m of postage and packaging receipts which have
previously been offset against the cost; this will increase ASOS.com sales from
£38.4m (as noted above in the highlights) to £42.6m. The sales for the previous
year will also be re-presented increasing sales by £1.5m to £19.7m. There is no
impact on profit before tax.
