Trading statement for the year ended 30 September 2017 NAMPAK LIMITED (Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa) (Registration number 1968/008070/06) Share code: NPK ISIN: ZAE000071676 (“Nampak” or “the Company”) TRADING STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2017 Nampak is in the process of finalising its results for the year ended 30 September 2017 (“the period” or “the year”). In terms of paragraph 3.4(b) of the JSE Listings Requirements ("the Requirements"), shareholders are advised that Nampak is satisfied that a reasonable degree of certainty exists that earnings per share (“EPS”) will differ by at least 20% compared to the prior year ended 30 September 2016 (“prior year”) and that certain key profit components will fall within indicated ranges. Consequently, Nampak advises that: • Trading profit is expected to increase by between 1% and 4% to between R1 935 million and R1 995 million compared to R1 905 million in the prior year. • Headline earnings per share (“HEPS”) is expected to increase by between 11% and 17% to between 119.4 cents per share and 125.9 cents per share compared to 107.6 cents per share in the prior year. HEPS excludes capital profits and impairments but includes foreign exchange losses and onerous contract provisions. • EPS is expected to decrease by between 84% and 88% to between 30.5 cents per share and 40.7 cents per share compared to 254.5 cents per share in the prior year. This is mainly due to a once-off capital profit of R1.3 billion that arose in the prior year related to the disposal of certain properties that has not been repeated in the current year. EPS includes capital profits, foreign exchange losses, onerous contract provisions and asset impairments. • In line with normal year-end procedures, Nampak has performed extensive impairment testing on the carrying value of its assets and preliminary results of these assessments indicate that certain impairments and an onerous contract provision and related costs are required. Total impairments and an onerous contract provision and related costs, which are included in the above figures, are likely to be between R720 million and R760 million compared to the prior year of R360 million. • Foreign exchanges losses are expected to decrease by between 74% and 78% to between R150 million and R180 million compared to R681 million in the prior year. Nampak expects to release its results on or about the 28 November 2017. The above information has not been reviewed or reported on by the Company's external auditors.
