Absa Bank Trading statement in respect of the year ended 31 December 2006
In terms of the Listing Requirements of the JSE Limited (the JSE Listing
Requirements), a listed company is required to publish a trading statement
as soon as it becomes apparent that headline earnings per share and/or
earnings per share for the next period to be reported on are expected, with
a reasonable degree of certainty, to differ by at least twenty per cent
(20%) from those of the previous corresponding period.
The current results are not comparable to those previously published due to
a change in Absa Bank`s financial year end.

expected to be between 1 685 and 1 805 cents per share for the twelve
months ended 31 December 2006.
