TRADING STATEMENT
In terms of the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited relating
to Trading Statements, a listed company is required to publish a
trading statement as soon as it becomes reasonably certain that
the financial results for the next period to be reported on will
differ by at least 20% or more from those of the previous
corresponding period.
Shareholders are advised that the company expects that, for the
six months ended 31 December 2012:
- earnings per share (“EPS”) will be at least 6.6 cents
compared to the prior period loss per share of 42.9 cents
- headline earnings per share (“HEPS”) will be at least 6.6
cents over a headline loss per share of 4.1 cents in the
previous corresponding period.
The improvement in EPS and HEPS arises largely because loss-making
subsidiaries were disposed of in the previous year.
The financial information on which this trading statement is based
has not been audited and reported upon by the company’s auditors.
The company’s results for the six month period ended 31 December
2012 are expected to be published on or about 14 February 2013.
