Trading statement Discovery Limited (Registration number 1999/007789/06) (Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa) Ordinary share code: DSY ISIN: ZAE000022331 (“Discovery” or “the Company”) TRADING STATEMENT Shareholders are referred to the announcement of 10 November 2014 which advised that Discovery has entered into a binding agreement to acquire the remaining 25% issued share capital of Prudential Health Holdings Limited, the holding company of PruHealth and PruProtect (“joint venture”), the UK joint venture with Prudential Assurance Company (“Prudential”), for GBP155 million (“the acquisition”). Further to this announcement, shareholders are advised that the acquisition has now been completed. Shareholders are reminded that Prudential had the option to sell its 25% shareholding in the joint venture to Discovery (“put option”) at the fair market value, each year from 2015. This put option was valued as a puttable non-controlling interest, at the present value of the fair value at the final expected exercise date being 2020. With the acquisition of the remaining 25% of the joint venture, the puttable non-controlling interest in respect of the Prudential’s put option falls away, and the difference between the current value and the purchase price of the 25% will be released to profit or loss for the 6 months ended 31 December 2014. As a result, Discovery’s undiluted headline earnings and basic earnings per share for the 6 months ending 31 December 2014 are expected to be at least 85% higher (260 cents) than the 301.4 cents and 307.7 cents respectively, reported for the corresponding prior period ended 31 December 2013. The accounting effects of the release of the put option liability will not have any impact on normalised earnings or normalised headline earnings per share. Given the early stage of the current reporting period, Discovery cannot with reasonable certainty quantify the extent of its results for the 6 months ending 31 December 2014 within the 20% range required by the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited. It is expected that a trading statement for the 6 months ending 31 December 2014 will be issued later, which should be on or about 18th February 2015. The forecast financial information on which this trading statement is based has not been reviewed and reported on by the Company`s external auditors.
