TRADING STATEMENT
Shareholders are advised that Spescom expects that its headline earnings for
the year ended 30 September 2008 will be between R6.5 million and R7.8 million
compared to R4.9 million in 2007. This translates into headline earnings per
share (HEPS) ranging between 9.0 cents per share and 10.8 cents per share, from
HEPS of 6.9 cents in the comparable period.
Earnings per share (EPS) are expected to be between 9.0 cents per share and
10.8 cents per share, for the year ended 30 September 2008. The once off profit
on the sale of investment amounting to R20.0m in 2007 resulted in EPS of 34.0
cents in the comparable period.
Spescom`s financial position continues to strengthen, as it benefits from
engagements with new and existing blue chip customers.
