Exhibit Description
No. 1 RNS Announcement, re: Notice of Results dated 19 July 2005
19 July 2005
British Energy Group plc
Preliminary Results for the 2.5 months ended 31 March 2005
(and unaudited "annual equivalent" results for 12 months ended 31 March 2005)
British Energy Group plc intends to release its preliminary results for the 2.5
months ended 31 March 2005 on Wednesday 27 July 2005.
A presentation to analysts and institutional investors will take place on
Wednesday 27 July 2005 at 0900hrs UK time. This presentation will be webcast
(www.british-energy.com) and there will be an audio dial in, and playback
facility available for those investors unable to attend in person. The dial in
details for this call are as follows:
UK dial in: 0845 146 2004
International dial in: +44 (0) 1452 569 393
US dial in: 1 866 434 1089
There will also be a conference call for US institutional investors and
bondholders at 1400hrs UK time. Dial in details for this call are as follows:
US dial in: 1 866 434 1089
International dial in: +44 (0) 1452 569 393
The results will be for the period from the Company's incorporation on 2 July
2004 until 31 March 2005. However, the results will reflect the 2.5 month
operating performance of the Company after the acquisition of British Energy plc
(the Acquired Group) on 14 January 2005.
Where appropriate it is intended to give information relating to the 9.5 month
period to 14 January 2005 for the Acquired Group and certain annual equivalent
results for the 12 month period to 31 March 2005. However, it is generally not
possible to compare the 9.5 month results of the Acquired Group and the 2.5
month results of the Company due to the different basis of preparation before
and after the restructuring.
