Trading Statement Wilderness Holdings Limited (Incorporated in Botswana on 23 February 2004) (Registration number 2004/2986) (Registered as an external company in South Africa on 27 November 2009) (Registration number 2009/022894/10) ISIN: BW0000000868 Share code: WIL (“Wilderness” or “the Company” or “the Group”) TRADING STATEMENT The Board of Wilderness hereby announces that the Group's interim results for the six months ended 31 August 2012 are likely to be higher than those achieved in the six months ended on 31 August 2011. This is attributable to a number of factors, most importantly the weaker local currencies which translated into higher reported revenues and also to a reduction in the impairment of assets. Full details will be given in the interim announcement of the results, due to be released on 30 October 2012. The Company will be holding a conference call to present the results to interested parties at 10.30 Central African time on that date. A presentation of the Group’s interim results will be available on the Company’s website at http://www.wildernessholdings.com/investor_centre/presentations.
