Trading Update

Brickability Group plc ("Brickability" or "the Company" or "the Group"), the leading construction materials distributor, is pleased to provide the following update on trading.

Following the Interim Results for the six months ended 30 September 2020 the Group has continued its strong recovery and the lockdown measures since November 2020 have had little material effect on trading. Furthermore, throughout the pandemic the Group has maintained rigorous cost control while continuing to make acquisitions and other strategic investments.

As indicated in the Interim Results, the market for its products continues to improve and the fundamentals for housebuilding remain strong. Additionally, the Group had undertaken significant preparation for the UK's departure from the European Union on 31 December 2020 and has seen no negative impact to its trading arising from this.

The Group's order books reflect the underlying optimism that, given the need for more homes to be built and Government support for house building, demand will remain strong for quality building materials.

As a result of the above, the Group now expects an adjusted EBITDA* of at least GBP16 million for the full year to 31 March 2021.

*Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, amortisation, exceptional and acquisition costs.
