Trading statement



Super Group is scheduled to release its financial results for the six months

ending 31 December 2013 on or about 10 February 2014.



Notwithstanding the difficult South African economic environment, Super

Group has seen a reasonable increase in sales volumes across most of its

businesses. The improvement in sales and the continued stringent control of

operational costs are expected to result in a satisfactory improvement of

earnings for the period to 31 December 2013.



Shareholders are advised that Super Group is expecting to report an increase

in consolidated net profit after taxation for the six months ending 31

December 2013 of between 17% and 25%, resulting in an increase in earnings

per share (“EPS”) of between 20% and 30%, an increase in headline earnings

per share (“HEPS”) of between 23% and 30% and an increase in Adjusted

Headline Earnings (“Adjusted HEPS”) per share of between 27% and 35%

compared to the results for the period ended 31 December 2012. The Group

reported a consolidated net profit after taxation of R362,3 million, EPS of

97,6 cents, HEPS of 95,3 cents and Adjusted HEPS of 97,2 cents for the

comparable six months ended 31 December 2012.



The financial information on which this trading statement is based has not

been reviewed or reported on by Super Group’s external auditors.
