                            Statement re suspension
                                        
The Board of Aukett Group plc (the 'Company') has become aware of press 
speculation concerning a potential transaction in which the Company is involved. 
The Board can confirm that they are in negotiations relating to a potential 
acquisition by the Company of Fitzroy Robinson Limited, the terms of which 
constitute a reverse takeover under the Listing Rules of the UK Listing Authority. 
Consequently, the Company has requested that the FSA suspend the Company's 
ordinary shares from the Official List and that the London Stock Exchange suspend 
the Company's ordinary shares from trading, until publication of the relevant 
documentation required under the Listing Rules of UK Listing Authority occurs.

A further announcement will be made in due course.
