Liam Condon, Chief Executive, commented:
"I am excited to have joined Johnson Matthey, and in my first month as Chief Executive I have been deeply impressed with the people and the quality of our technology. Looking at our full year results, it is pleasing that despite significant market uncertainty these are expected to be in line with current market expectations, with good performances in our core businesses giving a solid base from which to build further.
Together with my team, we are reviewing our strategy and focused on providing a clear pathway to demonstrate how the group will create value from the many exciting opportunities we face as the world transitions to net zero. I look forward to moving at pace and sharing our conclusions with you at our preliminary results on 26th May."
