Note:
(1)IFRS 16 Leases was adopted using the modified retrospective approach with the date of initial application
being 1 July 2019. Comparative figures were not restated with the cumulative effect of initially applying the
standard recognised at the date of initial application as an adjustment to opening accumulated loss. The
adjustment to accumulated loss amounts to R17.2 million which relates to the reversal of the operating lease
assets and liabilities and the deferred tax thereof recognised as at 30 June 2019.

Further explanations regarding the impact of the adoption of IFRS 16 Leases, will be disclosed in the
Company’s interim results for the six months ended 31 December 2019, which are anticipated to be released
on or about 27 February 2020.
