PSG/PGFP - PSG Group / PSG Financial Services - Trading Statement PSG GROUP LIMITED Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa Registration number 1970/008484/06 JSE share code: PSG ISIN: ZAE000013017 ("PSG") PSG Financial Services Limited Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa Registration number 1919/000478/06 JSE share code: PGFP ISIN code: ZAE000096079 RECURRING HEADLINE EARNINGS PSG continues to use the recurring headline earnings method to provide management and investors with a more realistic and transparent way of evaluating PSG`s earnings performance. Consolidated recurring headline earnings represent the sum of PSG`s effective interest in that of each strategic investment, regardless of its percentage shareholding. The result is that investments in which PSG or an underlying investment holds less than 20% and are generally not equity accountable in terms of accounting standards, are included in the calculation of our consolidated recurring headline earnings. Marked-to-market fluctuations and one-off items are excluded.
