Imperial Tobacco Group PLC
22 September 2009
?
Imperial Tobacco Group PLC (Imperial Tobacco) confirms that the anticipated
overall performance and financial position of the Group for the financial year
to 30 September 2009 remains in line with management's expectations. The trading
trends outlined in the Interim Management Statement on 23 July 2009 have
continued. The Altadis integration is progressing well and is on track to
deliver the expected synergies. The first half working capital outflow continues
to unwind such that we expect a full year working capital inflow with cash
conversion* expected to be over 100%.
Imperial Tobacco expects to release its preliminary results for the financial
year ending 30 September 2009 on Tuesday 10 November 2009.
*Cash conversion is defined as cash flow post capex pre interest and tax
measured as a percentage of adjusted profit from operations.
