Updated General Trading Statement
We refer shareholders to the General Trading Statement released
on SENS on Monday 16 February 2015, where shareholders were
advised that based on trading conditions experienced up to the
end of January 2015, a reasonable degree of certainty exists
that an increase in headline earnings per share for the six
months ending 31 March 2015 will be at least 120% or 465 cents
per share better than compared to the same period in the
previous year (2014: 386 cents)”.
This implies that the earnings per share is expected to increase
by 120% or 465 cents per share to at least 851 cents per share.
A further announcement will be released once a more definite
range of the increase in earnings can be given.
It is expected that the interim results for the six months to 31
March 2015 will be published on 18 May 2015.
The information on which the trading statement is based has not
been reviewed or reported on by Astral Foods’ auditors.
