Trading Update and Dividend Timetable

Abbey Protection plc ("Abbey Protection" or "the Group") the specialist supplier of legal and professional fees insurance and services products, is pleased to announce that, despite the continuing tough economic background and low interest rate environment, it expects its results for the year ended 31 December 2011 to be in line with market expectations.

Abbey Protection's CEO, Colin Davison, said:

"We believe that strong renewal performance will continue to underpin the strength of the business and this is borne out by clients such as, the Federation of Small Businesses, which has recently signed an extension to its long term contract with the Group through to 2017. However, we are conscious of continuing wider economic uncertainty and the board anticipates that growth in the forthcoming year will be constrained."
Abbey Protection will announce its results for the year ended 31 December 2011 on 27 March 2012. The board is also pleased to confirm the timetable for a second interim dividend as follows:
Announcement Date: 22 February 2012
Ex-Dividend Date: 29 February 2012
Record Date: 2 March 2012
