TRADING STATEMENT                                                               
Group Five shareholders are advised that earnings per share ("EPS") and         
headline earnings per share ("HEPS") for the year ended 30 June 2007 are        
expected to be 45%-55% higher, than those published for the previous            
corresponding period (before the effects of accounting for the BEE ownership    
transaction in the prior year).  This is mainly due to improved performance in  
Construction and the positive contribution from the acquisition of Quarry       
Cats.                                                                           
These forecasts for the year ended 30 June 2007 have not been reviewed or       
reported on by the company`s auditors.  The company`s audited results for the   
year ended 30 June 2007 will be published on or about 13 August 2007.
