("Imperial" or "the group")
TRADING STATEMENT
This trading statement is published in compliance with Rule 3.4(b) of the JSE
Listings Requirements.
Imperial is pleased to provide guidance regarding the range of the expected
increase in headline earnings per share ("HEPS") and earnings per share ("EPS")
for the year ending 30 June 2011:
TOTAL Year ended 30 June 2010 Year ending 30 June 2011
(increase)
HEPS 992 cents* 30% to 40%
EPS 1 047 cents** 23% to 33%
*including 16 cents earnings from discontinued operations
**including 32 cents earnings from discontinued operations
Operating profit is expected to be higher than the R3 288 million in the
comparative period in 2010 by a similar range to the expected increase in HEPS.
The group will not, as was done for the year ended 30 June 2010, report
separately on Discontinued Operations for the current financial year end, since
this number has become insignificant in relation to overall group results.
The financial information, on which this trading statement is based, has not
been reviewed or reported on by Imperial`s auditors. This update is based on
available information at the time of publication. Imperial`s year end results
are expected to be released on SENS on or about 24 August 2011.
