Trading Statement
ALERT STEEL HOLDINGS LIMITED
(Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa)
(Registration number 2003/005144/06)
JSE code: AET
ISIN: ZAE000092847
(“Alert Steel” or “the Company”)
TRADING STATEMENT
In terms of paragraph 3.4 (b) of the JSE Limited ("JSE") Listings Requirements, 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 ended 30 June 2013 by management has
indicated that the earnings per share is expected to increase by more than 50% when compared to
those reported for the previous corresponding year. At this time, Alert Steel is unable to quantify, with
reasonable certainty, the expected headline earnings per share ("HEPS") or earnings per share
("EPS") for the year. A further trading statement will be published once the company has more
certainty with regards to its financial results for the year ended 30 June 2013. The financial
information on which this trading statement is based has not been reviewed or reported on by Alert
Steel`s auditors. The Company`s financial results for the year ended 30 June 2013 are expected to be
released before 30 September 2013.
