Pendragon PLC is holding its Annual General Meeting at 2.30pm today. Ahead of the event the Company is pleased to report that positive trading momentum has continued in Q2 and performance remains in line with the Board's expectations. Pendragon will provide a full update on trading in July once the quarter's result is finalised.

The Company also announces that Non-executive Chairman Ian Filby has informed the Board that he intends to step down to pursue other interests. The Nomination Committee, led by Senior Independent Director Dietmar Exler, will commence the process to identify and appoint Ian's successor, and is being supported by external consultants.  Ian will continue in his role until this process is complete.
