MBH Corporation reacts to COVID-19 global situation

London, 30th March 2020 - As a result of the global COVID-19 situation, MBH Corporation plc ("MBH"), based in the UK, announces it will not be issuing a 2020 business performace outlook. MBH will release its 2019 Annual Report as scheduled on the 30th April 2020 and will look to issue guidance later in the year as the situation and its impact becomes clearer.

Due to events related to COVID-19 beyond MBH's control, forecasts for relevant industry sectors within the MBH Group (Construction Services, Education, Engineering, Health and Leisure), for the current financial year will need to be revised.

Due to the developing situation across the globe and the unknown time frame in which this may have an impact, MBH Corporation plc suspends its forecast for 2020, and acknowledges that the results for 2020 are likely to be materially different to market expectations. Like many companies impacted by the COVID-19 situation, negative effects on the sales and earnings situation of the MBH Group are expected for the current financial year.

The companies within MBH are leveraging government financial support schemes where appropriate and have formed a 'COVID-19 Committee' to coordinate activities and best practices across the group. MBH's acquisition strategy still remains a focus in their growth plan for 2020, with the most recent acquisition of Robinsons Caravans announced on 16th March 2020.
