Summarised audited results for the year ended 31 March 2022 and dividend declaration

Marshall Monteagle is an Investment Company. It is listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange and
has a broad and diversified range of investments. The investments fall broadly into the following
categories:

    •   Blue Chip International listed companies;
    •   Industrial Property in the United States of America and South Africa; and
    •   Financing and Trading Companies that operate on an international basis.

The Company’s objective is to invest for the long term to generate reliable profits, cash flow and
dividends for our shareholders; thereby achieving capital growth for the benefit of all stakeholders. The
performance of the Group’s investments is monitored and regularly reviewed by the Board.

The 18 month period has seen significant and increased challenges for the Group, brought on by the
Covid-19 pandemic, but also has brought new opportunities. These include choices such as the option
(and at times the need) to meet remotely via Microsoft Teams, Zoom or otherwise. This has led to
increased efficiencies at a reduced cost, the virtue of an awareness of climate change and the value of
preserving our planet. The pandemic has highlighted the need for companies to be able to adapt to
change quickly with minimal disruption to operations and the Group has risen to this challenge
admirably throughout this period.
