FURTHER trading UPDATE
In accordance with paragraph 3.4 of the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited
("JSE"), a listed company is required to publish a trading statement as soon as
it becomes aware, with a reasonable degree of certainty, that the financial
results for the next period to be reported on are likely to vary by more than
20% from the previous corresponding period.
Shareholders are referred to the trading update released on the Securities
Exchange News Service of the JSE on 28 July 2011 ("28 July trading update") and
hereby advised that, subsequent to the 28 July trading update, the company
expects an improvement of more than 370% in the headline earnings per share
("HEPS") for the 6 months ended 31 August 2011.
Accordingly, the company`s HEPS for the period is expected to be between 16.67
cents and 17.39 cents per share compared to 3.61 cents per share reported in the
previous corresponding period. Earnings per share ("EPS") for the 6 months ended
31 August 2011 is expected to be between 16.67cents and 17.39 cents compared to
3.61 cents per share as reported in the previous corresponding period.
The increase in both HEPS and EPS can be attributed to the commencement of the
company`s current pipeline of projects of over R5 billion, to be implemented
