Dewhurst plc, announces that as previously noted in the Chairman's Statement of the Company's annual report and accounts for the year ended 30 September 2012, customer demand in the UK started the new year slowly and that weakness has continued to date.  Although Group results are traditionally stronger in the second half, and management have no reason to expect any change in that pattern this year, the Board now anticipate that full year profits will be significantly lower than current market expectations.
