Trading statement
In terms of the JSE Limited Listings Requirements, companies are required to publish a trading statement
as soon as they are reasonably certain that the financial results for the current reporting period will be
more than 20% different than that of the prior comparative period.
Further to the above, Brimstone expects earnings per share and headline earnings per share for the year
ended 31 December 2015 to be negative (a decrease of more than 100%), primarily as a result of
downward fair value adjustments to investments.
The prior comparative period, being the year ended 31 December 2014, reflected positive earnings of
105.8 cents and 116.9 cents per share for both earnings per share and headline earnings per share
respectively.
Once the Company has clarity on the actual range of the decrease, a further trading statement will be
released on SENS.
Shareholders are advised that the above information has not been reviewed or reported on by the
Company’s auditors and that the Company’s results for the year ended 31 December 2015 are expected
to be published on or about 29 February 2016.
