TRADING STATEMENT


In terms of the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited, companies are required to publish a trading statement as
soon as 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 financial results for the previous corresponding period.

Shareholders are accordingly advised that:

1.    Rex Trueform's earnings per share are expected to increase by at least 20%, from earnings of 38.7 cents per
      share reported by Rex Trueform for the six months ended 31 December 2017 to earnings of at least 46.4 cents
      per share for the six months ending 31 December 2018; and

2.    Rex Trueform's headline earnings per share are expected to increase by at least 20%, from headline earnings of
      38.8 cents per share reported by Rex Trueform for the six months ended 31 December 2017 to headline
      earnings of at least 46.6 cents per share for the six months ending 31 December 2018.

Shareholders are further advised that Rex Trueform has not reached the end of the abovementioned reporting period
yet. Rex Trueform and its subsidiaries continue to trade in difficult times (including having regard to the recent
reoccurrence of load-shedding in South Africa), making it difficult to provide a more precise percentage (other than
the default percentage noted above) at this stage. Rex Trueform furthermore does not have reasonable certainty to
provide guidance as to either the specific percentage and numbers, or the range and numbers, to describe the
difference in the financial results in such periods. Once Rex Trueform has reached the end of its reporting period, and
obtains reasonable certainty in this regard, it will issue a further trading statement.

The information on which this trading statement has been based has not been reviewed or reported on by Rex
Trueform's external auditors.

Rex Trueform's interim results will be published on or about 15 March 2019.
