AGM STATEMENT

Air Partner plc, the global aviation services group, holds its Annual General Meeting today. At the meeting, Ed Warner, Chair, will make the following statement: 

"While the operating environment remains challenging, impacted by increasing protectionism, Brexit and headwinds across the global aviation industry, the Board remains confident that Air Partner will achieve current market expectations. However, profits are likely to be more weighted to the second half than in previous years, owing to the timing of major contracts. The global charter business has consistently been, and will continue to be, a volatile industry. Against this backdrop, we manage the business for the long term, with a very clear strategy of alignment to the needs of our global customer base.

The continued hard work of our people worldwide has provided a platform for ongoing sustainable growth. As a result, we remain focused on the organic and investment opportunities for both our Consulting & Training and Charter divisions. We continue to believe in our long-term growth plans and we are confident in our ability to fulfil them."
