Statement re. Suspension 

At the AGM the Board of Marchpole announced, "that trading conditions in the current financial year continue to be extremely difficult as a result of the deterioration in consumer markets, following the ongoing global financial crisis. 

The Board is taking all appropriate measures to deal with the current challenging economic environment and is maintaining a regular dialogue with the Company's bankers, in common with most other businesses exposed to the retail sector."

Pending the outcome of those discussions the Company has, accordingly, requested that the FSA suspend the Company's listing and trading in the Company's shares on the London Stock Exchange pending clarification of the Group's financial position.

Risk Warning

There is an extra risk of losing money when shares are bought in some smaller companies including 'Penny Shares'. There is a big difference between the buying price and the selling price of these shares. If they have to be sold immediately, you may get back much less than you paid for them or you may have difficulty in selling them. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results. The price may change quickly and it may go down as well as up. You could lose every penny put into a particular share.
