AGM Statement

Millfield Group PLC 03 September 2002 Date: 3 September 2002 On behalf of: Millfield Group plc ("Millfield") Embargoed until: 1100hrs Millfield Group plc AGM Statement Richard Mansell-Jones, Chairman of Millfield Group Plc, the independent financial services advisory group, will make the following statement at the Company's Annual General Meeting being held today: "Following the recent Extraordinary General Meeting on 18th July, we have raised £17.2 million, before expenses of £1.2 million: £5.2 million from institutions and other shareholders for working capital primarily for our investment in Lifetime Portfolio Services and £12.0 million from product providers to support our IFA acquisition programme. With the benefit of this product provider funding, we are now in active talks with some 12 firms of IFAs to join our MAP scheme. We are hopeful that the first of these discussions will come to a fruitful conclusion in the near future. "The nature of Millfield's business is such that it appears not to be unduly affected by the gyrations of the stock market. Based on our management figures at the end of August, we achieved a stronger rate of growth in turnover for the year to date than we experienced last year. "The integration of our newly acquired businesses of Heritage and Moncur Jackson continues to proceed satisfactorily. "We believe that Millfield is well placed to make good progress for the year as a whole. "I would like to thank my colleagues on the Board, our IFAs and all the staff at Millfield for their outstanding efforts." - ends - Enquiries to: Paul Tebbutt, Chief Executive / Harry Roome, Finance Director Tel: 020 8680 5200 Millfield Group plc Emma Kane, Chief Executive Tel: 020 7955 1410 Redleaf Communications Ltd Mob: 07876 338339 This information is provided by RNS The company news service from the London Stock Exchange
