Hasgrove has largely completed the restructuring of its digital businesses following the sale of Interel, the public affairs and strategic communications division, in July 2011. As a result there will be an exceptional cost of £865,000 for the full year. No further significant exceptional costs are anticipated.

Paul Sanders, group Chief Executive, said: "2011 was a year of change for Hasgrove, resulting in improved trading by the year end which has continued into the start of 2012. We are focused on delivering a strong first quarter, which will provide a platform for continued growth throughout 2012."
