Trading update
In terms of the Listings Requirements of JSE Limited, companies are required to
publish a trading statement as soon as they become reasonably certain that the
financial results for the period to be reported on will be more that 20%
different from that of the previous corresponding period. Accordingly, a review
of the financial results for the 12 months ended 28 February 2010 by management
has indicated that they expect a basic and headline loss per share of between
25.30 cents per share and 30.80 cents per share. In the prior comparative
period the Company reported a basic loss and headline loss per share of 13.14
and 13.19 cents per share respectively.
This increase in the basic loss and headline loss per share is mainly
attributable to a reduction in net finance income (R8,3m), partially offset by
decreases in consulting fees (R1,2m), investor relations expenditure (R0,9m) and
employment related expenditure (R1,5m).
The financial information on which this trading statement is based has not been
reviewed or reported on by Wits Gold`s auditors. The results for the 12 months
ended 28 February 2010 are expected to be published on or about 28 May 2010.
