TRADING STATEMENT
In terms of the Listings Requirements of JSE Limited, companies are required to publish a trading
statement as soon as they become reasonably certain that the financial results for the period to be reported
on will differ by more than 20% from the previous corresponding period.
Accordingly, a review of the financial results for the year ending 30 June 2013 by management has
indicated that the earnings per share and the headline earnings per share are expected to be at least 20%
higher compared to the year ended 30 June 2012. A further trading statement will be published once the
Company has a greater degree of certainty with regards to its financial results for the year ending 30 June
2013.
To avoid confusion, shareholders should note that the financial results for the year ended 30 June 2013 does
not include any profits relating to the potential acquisition of African Union Communications Proprietary
Limited (“the Acquisition”) as announced on SENS on 10 July 2013. The earliest effective date of the
Acquisition is 1 July 2013, subject to shareholder approval, which falls within Poynting’s 2014 financial year.
The financial information on which this trading statement is based has not been reviewed or reported on by
Poynting’s auditors. Poynting’s year-end financial results are expected to be released on SENS on or
about 27 September 2013.
