RECURRING HEADLINE EARNINGS
PSG, an investment holding company, continues to use the sum-of-
the-parts (“SOTP”) value and recurring headline earnings methods
to provide management and investors with a more realistic and
transparent way of evaluating PSG’s performance. PSG’s SOTP value
is calculated using the quoted market prices for all listed and
over-the-counter (“OTC”) traded unlisted investments, and market
related valuations for unquoted, unlisted investments.        PSG’s
recurring headline earnings is the sum of its effective interest
in that of each of its underlying investments. The result is that
investments in which PSG holds less than 20% and are generally not
equity accountable in terms of accounting standards, are included
in the calculation of consolidated recurring headline earnings.
Marked-to-market fluctuations and one-off items are excluded.
