"The Group has delivered an excellent set of results for 2008, with adjusted profit before tax 48% ahead of the prior year and free cash flow nearly three times the level achieved in 2007. This strong foundation, combined with the successful long-term refinancing of the Group undertaken during 2008, means Senior is well placed to deal with the uncertainty being seen in markets across the world today."
