At today's Annual General Meeting, the Rank Group Plc (LSE: RNK)
(Rank or the Group) will announce the following trading update for
the 15 weeks to 9 October 2016.
Rank today announces total Group like-for-like revenue for the

flat. On a channel basis, venues revenue was down 1% and digital
revenue grew by 7%.
Grosvenor Casinos' venue like-for-like revenue declined by 1%,
principally driven by a lower than average margin and lower
customer visits. Mecca venue like-for-like revenue was flat.
Grosvenor Casinos' digital channel continued to grow strongly,
with revenue up 30% in the period. Mecca's digital revenue fell by
4% in the period, however trends in recent weeks have been
encouraging.

unchanged.
