                                Trading Update

Since the start of the year, Computacenter has experienced difficult trading
conditions. Group sales are approximately 10% down compared to last year,
although on an improving trend as the quarter has progressed. This revenue
shortfall has been due to lower product sales; service revenues, other than in
France, have increased in the quarter.

The reduced product sales, coupled with an adverse change in mix towards lower
margin product, have generated smaller rebates from our major vendor. This has
had a material impact on achieved margins in the first quarter.

We are projecting product revenues for the balance of the year to be broadly
similar to last year and margins to be lower for the rest of the year, although
not to the same extent as we have experienced in the first quarter. Therefore,
unless market conditions change, Computacenter's profits for the year will be
substantially below last year.

We will give a further update on trading in our pre-close statement in early
July.
