FURTHER TRADING STATEMENT FOR THE 52 WEEKS ENDED 30 MARCH 2013
As required by the JSE Limited Listing Requirements, a company is
obliged to announce once it is reasonably certain that its results
will differ by more than 20% from the corresponding reporting period.
In its trading statement released on 10 April 2013, the company
indicated that its results for the 52 weeks ended 30 March 2013
(“current period”) would be more than 20% higher than the
corresponding period, being the 52 weeks ended 31 March 2012. A range
was not provided at that stage as this was not known with sufficient
certainty.
The company is now closer to finalising the results and expects basic
earnings and headline earnings per share to increase by between 23%
and 28%.
The final results are expected to be released on Wednesday, 22 May
2013.
The above mentioned figures and forecast financial information have
not been reviewed and reported on by the company’s external auditors.
