Friday 12 November 2021: Cut-off date for new information. Information available prior to the end of day on 12
November 2021 will be considered when determining December’s shares and free float updates.
Friday 19 November 2021: The shares and float files will be released (and will be available on the FTSE/JSE website
on 22 November 2021). Clients are welcome to query the data included within these files and FTSE Russell will
review appropriately. Any changes will be visible within the files which will be published daily between 19 November
and 03 December 2021. These files are strictly indicative until end of day on 03 December 2021 and are subject
to daily changes.
The FTSE/JSE Index Review files will be released on Wednesday 01 December 2021.
Friday 19 November to Friday 03 December 2021: Query period. Clients are welcome to query the data visible
within the files between 22 November 2021 and end of day on 03 December 2021.
The quarterly updates will be considered final at end of day on Friday 03 December 2021.
Monday 06 December 2021: Effective start of trading on 06 December 2021, the scheduled changes will be
“locked down” across the FTSE/JSE Indexes, with no further corrections applied this quarter*.
*During the quarterly review / annual reconstitution lock-down period, FTSE Russell will generally avoid implementing corrections to ensure stability during
the period prior to the review / reconstitution implementation. However egregious shares and free float errors discovered within the lock-down period or
during the week following the review / reconstitution may be corrected if an erroneous change compromises the replicability of the index OR if the change
places potential price pressure on the company OR if there is a material error of 50% or greater (relative) to index shares. Any corrections during the lock-
down period or the week following the review will be implemented with appropriate notice. All other shares and free float errors will be corrected at the
following quarterly index review.
Monday 20 December 2021: From start of trading on 20 December 2021 the quarterly changes will become
effective within the FTSE/JSE Indexes.
Additional Clarifications
Stocks Suspended during the Review Period: Constituents which are suspended on Friday 03 December 2021*
will not have their scheduled review changes implemented regardless of a resumption of trade prior to the review
effective date. The scheduled review changes will be implemented T+5 after the review effective date, at the earliest,
upon resumption of trade.
If an active constituent suspends on or prior to Tuesday 14 December 2021*, the scheduled review changes will
be reversed and applied T+5 after the resumption of trade (T+5 after the review effective date, at the earliest). If a
suspension occurs on 15 December 2021 or 17 December 2021, the review changes will proceed as previously
communicated**.
*If there is a confirmed resumption of trade date which occurs prior to the review effective date, the review changes
will proceed as scheduled.
**in exceptional circumstances, it may be deemed necessary to reverse the review changes when a company
suspends on 15 or 17 December 2021.
Equity Offerings: In accordance with standard methodology, primary and secondary offerings will continue to be
applied with two days’ notice when discovered after the review announcement date. However, offerings which would
ordinarily become effective at the open on the Tuesday - Friday prior to the review will instead be implemented
simultaneously in conjunction with the review effective date on 20 December 2021 (open). Offerings discovered on
the Thursday and Friday prior to the review will be implemented with two days’ notice and therefore subsequent to
the review.
