                               Stockcube Plc ("Stockcube" or "Company") 
                            Trading Update For Year Ended 31 December 2009 
 
 
Stockcube, provider of technical research and analysis of the relative strengths and weaknesses of 
price trends of stocks and other financial instruments, today issues a trading update in advance of 
its preliminary results announcement for the twelve months ending 31 December, 2009 due to be 
published in April, 2010. 
 
As was stated in the interim statement released on 18 September 2009, the board of Stockcube did not 
foresee an immediate increase in stock market activity and, although the economic shocks of the 
previous eighteen months were being absorbed, the company's trading outlook for the year ended 31 
December 2009 was uncertain. 
 
Stockcube's costs are largely fixed so that the group's operating profitability is highly sensitive to 
variations in our turnover.  It is anticipated that turnover for the year ended 31 December 2009, 
based upon un-audited management accounts, will be approximately 13 per cent. below that achieved in 
2008 and, although the Company remains profitable, the reduction in turnover will be directly 
reflected in operating profit, which is likely to be approximately 50 per cent. lower than reported in 
2008 on a like for like basis. 
 
Current trading 
 
We  expect the current downturn in investment activity to continue with some further reduction on  our 
client  base in the current year, although not at the same rate as experienced in 2009 and we  believe 
that confidence and market activity will take some years to return to pre-2008 levels. 
 
Future structure 
 
With this background in mind, the board of Stockcube has been considering how to best balance 
shareholders' interests with the needs of the business to maximise profits and cashflows and 
remunerate staff competitively. 
 
The board is actively reviewing the future capital structure of the Company and its status as a 
publicly traded entity.  Whilst no decision has been made yet, any decision to cancel the admission of 
the Company's shares to trading on AIM will be accompanied by a suitable proposal to enable investors 
to realise their investment.  A further announcement regarding this matter will be made in due course 
and shareholders are urged not to take any action until such time.
