Ceramic expects to announce earnings per share and headline earnings per share
for the six months ended 31 January 2005 that will be approximately 30% higher
than that of the prior comparative period. This improved performance is the
result of improved efficiencies in all the factories and increased consumer

auditors and the company`s results for the six months ended 31 January 2005 are
expected to be published on 9 March 2005.
