1. Earnings from continuing operations exclude results from discontinued operations.
2. It is management’s view that the most appropriate metric to measure performance for the full year ended 30 September
2022 (“FY2022”) is Core EPS from continuing operations. Core earnings exclude adjustments on put and call options over non-
controlling interests, acquisition costs as well as specified items if the gain/loss is considered part of Transaction Capital’s
normal operations. FY2022 core earnings exclude adjustments on put and call options of R470 million, once off transaction
costs of R16 million and specified items of R79 million.
3. Headline earnings is calculated as basic earnings in terms of IAS33-Earnings Per Share less all re-measurements as defined in
the SAICA Revised IFRS Circular 1/2021-Headline Earnings. FY2021 basic earnings included a non-recurring fair value gain of
R1 403 million on the previously held minority interest in WeBuyCars. FY2022 basic earnings include adjustments relating to
put and call options over non-controlling interests of R470 million as well as 12 months performance consolidated for
WeBuyCars (FY2021: 2 months).
In FY2022, Transaction Capital extended its track record of organic earnings growth. Our divisions have put
the building blocks in place to materially enhance their competitive value propositions, diversify their
revenues and expand their total addressable market. Based on this strategic repositioning, our current
assessment of operating conditions and our growth prospects, we expect Transaction Capital’s organic
earnings growth over the medium-term to be at least in line with historic growth rates.
