Informative Notice – 20170804 Anheuser-Busch InBev Free Float Update
Anheuser-Busch InBev (South Africa): Free Float Update - Informative
Notice
FTSE/JSE Africa Index Series
4 August 2017
According to FTSE/JSE Ground Rule 4.3.8 any company classified as an inward listed share by National
Treasury will have its free float adjusted to exclude non-South African shareholdings. In order to be
considered eligible for index inclusion, all inward-listings require a minimum of 1% plus 1 share of their
total issued shares to be accounted for on the South African share register at the month end prior to the
Review Cut Date. In the event that a non-constituent meets this criteria for the first time, that
company’s free float will be based solely on the share register at the month end prior to the Review Cut
Date rather than a three month average basis.
Following receipt of information from Strate regarding the number of shares accounted for on the South
African share register for Anheuser-Busch InBev (ANH), FTSE/JSE announces that ANH does not meet the
minimum free float requirement as set out in Ground Rule 4.3.8. ANH will therefore not be eligible for
inclusion to the FTSE/JSE Africa Index Series at the September 2017 index review. ANH will be
considered again at the next index review in December 2017. For the December review the free float for
ANH will be based on South African share register data at the end of October 2017.
