SHORT-FORM ANNOUNCEMENT:
REVIEWED RESTATED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED
31 AUGUST 2020


Introduction
Shareholders of the Company (“shareholders”) are referred to the Abridged Audited Consolidated
Financial Statements for the year ended 29 February 2020 published on SENS on 1 September 2020 (“prior
year results”) and the unaudited condensed consolidated interim results for the six months ended
31 December 2020, published on SENS on 14 December 2020 (“interim results”). The Company wishes to
advise shareholders that as a result of the Company’s auditors having expressed a qualified opinion on
the prior year results due to a change in auditors and the current auditors being unable to satisfy
themselves by alternative means concerning quantities of inventory held at 29 February 2020; and in
accordance with the provisions of paragraph 3.18 of the JSE Listing Requirements, the interim results were
required to be reviewed by the Company’s auditors.

The reviewed interim results for the six months ended 31 August 2020 (“reviewed interim results”) were
reviewed by HLB CMA South Africa Inc., who expressed an unmodified review conclusion. The auditor’s
review conclusion is available for inspection at the Company’s registered office. An extract of the review
opinion is set out below:

“Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that these
consolidated interim results do not present fairly, in all material respects the financial position of Nutritional
Holdings Limited & it’s subsidiaries as at 31 August 2020, and its financial performance and cash flows for
the six months then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and the
requirements of the Companies Act 71 of 2008.”
