"Your Directors are pleased to advise you that CCI’s results continue to improve. CCI has
recorded its highest individual (unaudited) monthly sales during November. Robust activity for
the group is expected to continue for the balance of the financial year.
2007 Forecast estimated to be a record $4.6 million
Given current trading, your Board confirms again that CCI is on track to meet the forecast
advised in September 2006 and confirmed at the AGM on 22 November. Subject to
unforeseen circumstances, the Directors estimate that the 2007 operating profit after tax
should come in around the upper end of the forecast range, ie $4.6 million, another record.
The half year’s results and updated commentary will be released in late February. Despite the
absorption of one-off litigation and takeover costs in this period, the Directors believe the six
month’s performance will endorse their positive expectations for the remainder of 2007.
