Johnson Matthey plc announced that they will report first half, 2010 results on November 25, 2009.

Johnson Matthey plc has rebranded its Advanced CCRT® System, the second generation benchmark CCRT® filter technology for heavy duty diesel 2.5g NOx EGR and non-EGR engine retrofits. The new brand name is AdvCCRT(TM) System, which replaces the former name, ACCRT(TM) System. Johnson Matthey's AdvCCRT(TM) System---the first passively regenerated particulate filter for 2.5g NOx EGR and non-EGR engine---has been verified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for reducing particulate matter (PM) by more than 90%, while meeting EPA's stringent NO2 slip requirements. The California Air Resources Board (CARB) also verified the AdvCCRT(TM) System in April 2009. The AdvCCRT(TM) System uses three distinct catalyst formulations specifically engineered for optimum performance. Upstream, a Johnson Matthey oxidation catalyst coated on a flow-through substrate optimizes conditions for the second, downstream catalytically coated wall-flow filter to burn off virtually all PM. The third catalyst, an NO2 decomposition catalyst, then reduces NO2.

Johnson Matthey plc reported earnings results for the first quarter ended June 30, 2009. For the quarter, the company reported revenue declined 21% and profit before tax and amortisation was also 21% below the same point a year ago. The group's results were helped by favourable exchange translation and a lower interest charge compared with last year.
