AGM Statement

Johnson Service Group PLC 11 May 2006 11 May 2006 Johnson Service Group PLC AGM Statement 2006 At the Annual General Meeting, which is due to commence at 3pm today, the Chairman, Simon Sherrard, will make the following statement: 'The acquisitions made during last year are being successfully integrated and we are continuing with our strategy of refocusing the Group towards business-to-business services markets, that offer higher growth and longer-term contractual revenue streams. Our Corporatewear division, the UK's market leader, is performing strongly and is continuing to win new business in a growing market. Our white collar Facilities Management division, that now covers both the commercial and retail sectors, is also demonstrating strong organic growth. Our textile rental business continues to trade solidly and we are beginning to benefit from one of our main competitors having withdrawn from the market, although the impact of this is expected to be more evident in the second half. As stated in our results announcement in March, consumer demand remains weak and is leading to unpredictable revenues in Drycleaning. With respect to the approach for our Drycleaning business, discussions are continuing with an interested party that may, or may not, lead to an offer being received. We remain well placed to deliver another satisfactory outcome for the year.' www.johnsonplc.com For further information, please contact: Johnson Service Group PLC Hudson Sandler Stuart Graham, CEO Sandrine Gallien Jim Wilkinson, CFO Telephone: 020 7796 4133 Tel: 020 7290 0390 This information is provided by RNS The company news service from the London Stock Exchange
