MZR - Mazor Group Limited - Trading Statement Mazor Group Limited (Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa) (Registration number 2007/017221/06) Share code: MZR ISIN: ZAE000109823 ("Mazor" or "the Company") TRADING STATEMENT In accordance with paragraph 3.4 (b) of the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited, shareholders are advised that the Company`s earnings and headline earnings per share for the year ended 28 February 2011 will be between 70% and 80% lower than the reported earnings and headline earnings per share for the prior comparative period. This decline is largely attributable to continued low activity within the construction sector in South Africa and, in particular, the Western Cape. Excess capacity within the sector has resulted in price pressures, leading to lower margins. Tendering activity is increasing with better prospects for the coming year. Trading divisions (Hulamin Building Systems, Compass Glass and Compass Glass SA) continue to increase market share and improve margins. The company has completed its rationalisation process in line with existing economic conditions. The company`s results for the second 6 months of this financial year are however expected to be better than the corresponding second 6 months of the previous financial year. The financial information on which this trading update is based has not been reviewed by the Company`s auditors. The Company`s results for the year ended 28 February 2011 will be released on or about 17 May 2011 Cape Town 4 April 2011 Sponsor: Bridge Capital Advisors (Pty) Limited Date: 04/04/2011 17:32:01 Supplied by www.sharenet.co.za Produced by the JSE SENS Department.
