Jason Walsh, CPP Group Chief Executive, commented: "Overall the trading performance of the Group in the first three months has been in line with expectations and we remain positive about the outlook, subject to the impact of Covid-19 in some of our markets. Our thoughts go out to our partners, colleagues and customers in those markets which continue to be badly impacted by the virus, particularly in India. As a Group we are watching developments closely and are ready to offer whatever support we can.  
 
The interim results are due to be published at the end of August in respect of the first six months of 2021, with a trading update due to be issued in July."
