If the sign is supported only at P, it requires a moment connection and there is no horizontal force.
Assume that the sign is supported at P and the bottom of the same side (40 cm down) is butted against the support.
Take moments:
mg * (40/2) = P*40
Solve for P.
Where did the 40/2 come from?

40/2 Came from Steve's answer, get with it.
