14 July 2004 
 
At today's AGM of T&F Informa plc, the Group's Chairman David Smith will say: 
 
"Following the merger between Taylor & Francis and Informa which became 
effective on 10 May, the enlarged Group has continued to trade in line with 
Board expectations and we anticipate a satisfactory trading outcome for the 
year. 
 
Integration work is proceeding smoothly and to plan with a number of internal 
teams working on opportunities to enhance revenues and also save costs.  Initial 
results are encouraging and we will provide an update on progress with the 
Interim results announcement in September. 
 
In addition, the integration of the CRC Press, MMS, PJB Publications and Marcel 
Dekker acquisitions is proceeding according to plan. 
 
We are pleased with the progress made to date and the reaction to the merger. 
The new Group is ideally positioned to take full advantage of its broad product 
portfolio and the wide range of markets in which it operates".
