                                 AGM STATEMENT

Debenhams today held its Annual General Meeting for the financial year ended 2
September 2006.  In relation to current trading John Lovering, Chairman, said:


On 24 October when Debenhams announced its Preliminary Results for the financial
year ended 2 September 2006 total sales growth for the first seven weeks of the
current year to 21 October was +7.0% and like-for-like sales stood at -4.2%.
Since that time trading has remained difficult.  Total cumulative sales to the
10 December 2006 are up by 5.7% compared with the comparable period last year
with like-for-like sales down -4.7% for the same period.   The remaining weeks
of December and the early January period are some of the biggest of the year and
as such can have a significant impact on underlying sales growth.   We will be
updating the market next with our Christmas and January trading statement on 16
January 2007.
