TRADING STATEMENT: YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2014

The Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited requires an issuer to publish a trading statement as soon as it
has a reasonable degree of certainty that Earnings Per Share ("EPS") and/or Headline Earnings Per Share
("Headline EPS") for the next reporting period will differ by at least 20% from those of the previous
corresponding reporting period.

RMH considers Normalised EPS, which excludes non-operational items and accounting anomalies, as a
more accurate indicator of its underlying operational performance.

Shareholders were advised in March 2014 of changes in accounting policies as a result of the adoption of
new and revised IFRS standards. These changes resulted in a restatement of the results for the prior year
ended 30 June 2013. Such restated results are used as basis for the guidance set out below.
