Offer Talks Ended

On 25 October 2011, Greencore Group plc ("Greencore" or the "Company") announced the receipt of an approach which may or may not lead to an offer for the Company. The Board emphasised that the discussions were at a preliminary stage and there was no certainty that any offer would be made.

Such discussions were entered into with a view to establishing whether a proposal acceptable to the Board, which could then be put to shareholders, would be forthcoming. Given the Board's unanimous view on the strong underlying value of Greencore and the current dislocation in global equity and debt capital markets, both parties have agreed to end discussions. Accordingly, the Board can confirm that the Company is no longer engaged in any discussions regarding a potential offer for the Company.

As previously announced, Greencore will release its results for the year ending 30 September 2011 tomorrow (6 December 2011).

A copy of this announcement will be available on the website of the Company at www.greencore.com.
