Shareholders were advised in Caxton"s 2003 annual results announcement
(published on SENS on 9 September 2003) and in the Company"s annual report that
Caxtons was budgeting for increased growth.
Mainly as a result of increased consumer spending, increased advertising spends
and the appreciation of the Rand, it is expected that the earnings per share,
diluted earnings per share, headline earnings per share and diluted headline
earnings per share for the six months to 31 December 2003 will all show a
material improvement on the results of the previous comparative period. The word
material in this context is defined as meaning a difference of between 10% and
30%.
The financial information on which this trading statement is based has not been
reviewed or reported on by the Company"s auditors. Shareholders are therefore
