Pre-close statement

KCOM Group ("the Group") announces it will be entering a close period on 1 April 2015, ahead of its preliminary results announcement for the year ending 31 March 2015.

The Board confirms that trading remains in line with market expectations.

Fibre deployment

The deployment of fibre-based broadband services across Hull and East Yorkshire continues to be successful, achieving take-up of over 30 per cent which is well in excess of the national average.

As a consequence, the Board has approved plans to accelerate the speed of deployment, making it available to a further 60,000 homes and businesses over the next two years.

By March 2017, over 100,000 properties will be able to access the service.

Full year results

A full update on the Group's performance will be made in the preliminary results announcement which will be released on 5 June 2015.
