LAMPRELL PLC('Lamprell' and with its subsidiaries the 'Group')

UPDATE TO RELEASE DATE OF THE 2019 FINANCIAL RESULTS

Lamprell has received a letter from the Financial Conduct Authority ('FCA') requesting all companies that are due to report in the next few weeks to defer the release of their 2019 financial results, as a result of the unprecedented practical challenges that listed companies and the audit profession are facing during the ongoing Coronavirus crisis. We note the FCA's announcement earlier this morning which provides further information on this subject matter: https://www.londonstockexchange.com/exchange/news/market-news/market-news-detail/other/14472186.html.

As a result, the Board of Lamprell plc has agreed to accommodate the FCA's request and will defer the release of Lamprell's 2019 financial results, which will not now be issued this week as planned. We will issue an announcement regarding the new date for release in due course following publication of further guidance from the FCA.

This announcement contains inside information for the purposes of Article 7 of EU Regulation 596/2014.
