TRADING STATEMENT
Shareholders are advised that basic earnings and headline earnings per share in
respect of the six months ended 30 September 2006 are expected to reflect a
decline of between 88% and 93%, compared to the previous corresponding period.
As previously reported, Wesco"s associate, Toyota South Africa, is in a phase of
substantial expansion to increase production volumes. The decline in profits is
largely attributable to the associate"s additional overhead expenditure relevant
to these activities, lower margins and increased finance costs.
This information has not been reviewed or reported on by the auditors of the
company.
The results for the six months to 30 September 2006 are expected to be published
on SENS after close of trading on the JSE Limited on Monday, 4 December 2006 and
in the press on Tuesday, 5 December 2006.
