Interim Management Statement

Castings PLC 11 February 2008 Castings plc Interim Management Statement Castings plc publishes its second interim management statement covering the period from 1 October 2007 to 31 January 2008. The company remains busy and working at maximum production. However, margins for the last three months of this financial year will again be affected by abnormal rises in scrap and pig iron prices. There will be a delay of six to nine months before these increases can be recovered. Notwithstanding these cost pressures, the company still anticipates it will achieve analysts' forecasts of the profit for the year to 31 March 2008. Work continues to progress satisfactorily on the new moulding line currently under construction for William Lee. There are no other material developments to report.
