Interim Management Statement
At this morning's AGM of Low & Bonar PLC ("the Group"), the international
performance materials group, Chairman Duncan Clegg will make the following
statement which also comprises the Group's Interim Management Statement for the
period from 1 December 2009 to date:
"The Group continues to trade in line with the Board's expectations.
During the period since the year end sales have continued to improve compared to
the prior year, with the transport, carpet and leisure sectors making
significant progress. The improvement in these sectors has been partly offset
by the impact of the adverse weather conditions on our civil engineering and
building products activities. However, these markets did improve towards the end
of the first quarter of the financial year.
The Group is therefore confident of making the expected progress during 2010
towards the financial targets that the Group has set."

Forward looking statements
This announcement includes statements that are, or may be deemed to be, "forward

use of forward looking terminology, including, but not limited to, the terms
"believes", "estimates", "anticipates", "expects", "may", "will", "would",
"could" or "should" or, in each case, their negative or other variations or
comparable terminology. These forward looking statements include matters that
are not historical facts.
By their nature, forward looking statements involve risks and uncertainties
because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not
occur in the future. Forward looking statements are not guarantees of future
performance. The Group's actual results of operations, financial condition and
liquidity may differ materially from the impression created by the forward
looking statements contained in this announcement. In addition, even if the
results of operations, financial condition, and liquidity are consistent with
the forward looking statements contained in this announcement, those results or
developments may not be indicative of results or developments in subsequent
periods. Important factors that could cause these differences include, but are
not limited to: changes in the competitive framework in which the Group operates
and its ability to retain market share; the Group's ability to generate growth
or profitable growth; the Group's ability to generate sufficient cash to service
its debt; the Group's ability to control its capital expenditure and other
costs; significant changes in exchange rates, interest rates and tax rates;
significant technological and market changes; future business combinations or
dispositions; and general local and global economic, political, business, and
market conditions. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the
events described in the forward-looking statements in this announcement may not
occur.
Other than in accordance with their legal or regulatory obligations, the Group
does not undertake any obligation to update or revise publicly any forward
looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise.
