Trading Update
Dorbyl hereby advises that for the six months ended 30 September 2006, it is
expected that headline earnings per share will reflect a loss of between 10 and
40 cents per share (compared to the headline loss per share of 223,6 cents for
the previous comparative six month period ended 30 September 2005) and in
respect of basic earnings between a loss per share of 23 cents and a profit per
share of 7 cents (compared to basic earnings per share of 1696,9 cents for the
previous comparative period).
Basic earnings for the previous comparative period were largely enhanced by the
non-recurring profit on the disposal of Alpine. Nonetheless it should be noted
that during the current period, the ongoing operational divisions of Dorbyl
achieved lower profitability, while at Group level the restructuring and
retrenchment costs in respect of the downsizing of the corporate head office
were accounted for.
The information in this trading statement has not been reviewed or reported on
by Dorbyl"s auditors.
