Trading Update
In terms of the revised Listings Requirements of the JSE Securities Exchange
South Africa (`JSE`), a listed company is required to publish a trading
statement as soon as it becomes aware that the financial results for the next
period to be reported on will show a 20% or more difference from those of the
previous corresponding period.
Dorbyl hereby advises that for the six months ended 30 September 2004, it is
expecting earnings per share to be 30% to 50% below, and headline earnings per
share to be 30% to 50% above those reported for the previous comparative period
ended 30 September 2003. The main reason for the decline in earnings per share
is the exceptional profit of R35,5m realized on business disposals in the prior
comparative period.
The information in this trading statement has not been reviewed or reported on
by Dorbyl`s auditors.
The abovementioned results are expected to be published on or about 24 November
2004.
