(“Adcock Ingram” or “the Company”)

TRADING STATEMENT

In terms of the JSE Limited (“JSE”) Listings Requirements, companies are required to provide guidance to the
market when they are satisfied that a reasonable degree of certainty exists that the financial results for the
current reporting period will differ by at least 20% from the results of the previous corresponding reporting
period.

Shareholders are reminded that the earnings per share (EPS) and headline earnings per share (HEPS) for the
six-month period ended 31 December 2016 (previous corresponding reporting period) was 168.9 cents and
148.6 cents respectively. The difference of 20.3 cents substantially arose through certain non-trading capital
profits on the disposal of the Group’s business in India during October 2016.

Shareholders are advised that the Company expects HEPS for the six-month period ended 31 December 2017
to be not less than 27% (40 cents) higher than the previous corresponding reporting period. It is further
expected that EPS for the six-month period ended 31 December 2017 will not be less than 12% (20 cents)
higher, relative to the previous corresponding reporting period.

Adcock Ingram is in the process of finalising the results for the six-month period ended 31 December 2017
and a more defined range of both EPS and HEPS (as required by the JSE Listings Requirements) will be
announced in a further Trading Statement on SENS in due course.

The financial information on which this Trading Statement is based has not been reviewed and reported on by
the Company’s external auditors.
