SALIENT FEATURES EXTRACTED FROM THE AUDITED PRELIMINARY SUMMARISED 
RESULTS for the year ended 31 December 2020
and cash dividend declaration

PROFILE PURSUANT TO SABCAP LISTING

Sabvest Capital Limited (Sabcap) is an investment group which was 
listed on the JSE on 13 May 2020 as part of a restructuring in 
which it acquired 100% of the ordinary and ‘N’ ordinary shares of 
Sabvest Limited (Sabvest), which had been listed on the JSE since 
1988, in exchange for a single class of Sabcap ordinary shares. 
The Seabrooke Family Trust (SFT) controls Sabcap through an 
unlisted ‘Z’ share.  

At the year-end Sabcap had 40,96m shares in issue. The unaudited 
profile of shareholders at year-end was as follows: SFT (39,0%); 
Family offices and High Net Worth Indiviudals (29,2%); 
Institutional Fund Managers (19,4%); Other (12,4%). 

Sabcap has interests in nine unlisted investments and three listed 
investments and held two investments as current assets which were 
realised in Q1 2021, all accounted for on a fair value basis. 
Sabcap’s primary focus is on industrial and service businesses, 
usually unlisted and co-invested with family, management or 
financial partners. 

The unaudited combined gross revenues of Sabcap’s nine industrial 
investees was R11,2bn in 2020. These exceeded R10bn for the first 
time particularly aided by the growth and acquisitions in DNI.
Sabcap also makes finance advances, and holds listed debt, equity 
and cash portfolios when it has surplus liquidity, and undertakes 
other fee, finance and profit earning activities from time to 
time.
