News release

QinetiQ Group plc

Pre Close Trading Update

Ahead of QinetiQ entering its closed period for the half year ending 30 September 2015, we will be holding our customary pre-close meetings with analysts today. No new material information will be disclosed in these meetings.

The Board is maintaining its expectations for Group performance this financial year.

In the UK, the Government's Strategic Defence and Security Review (SDSR), and public consultation on the proposed approach to calculating the baseline profit rate for single source contracts, are both underway.

The EMEA Services division continues to see some customer contract award decisions deferred due to uncertainties in the UK market or delayed by requirements for additional approvals. However, revenue under contract for this financial year is as expected at this stage.

As anticipated, the Group's Global Products division continues to trade at similar levels to the prior year.

QinetiQ's interim results for the half year ending 30 September 2015 will be announced on 19 November 2015.
