AGM trading update 
Van Elle, the geotechnical engineering contractor offering a wide range of specialist foundation solutions and techniques to customers in a variety of UK construction end markets, is issuing the following trading update ahead of its Annual General Meeting, to be held later today.
The Board wishes to confirm that trading in the first quarter of the financial year has been encouraging, with good levels of activity across the Group, particularly within the General Piling division and the recently established Scottish operation. Market and operating conditions in the Group's rail business remain more challenging but the Board continues to see this as an area of opportunity for Van Elle over the medium term. The Board will continue to monitor conditions in its markets closely and, whilst acknowledging the normal seasonality of the business, remains confident in its expectations for the current financial year as well as the long-term potential of the Group. 
The Group has continued to strengthen the senior management team with the appointment of Danielle Cafferkey to the role of General Counsel and Company Secretary.
