TRADING STATEMENT FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 31 AUGUST 2025 AND SECONDARY LISTINGS ON
THE NAMIBIAN SECURITIES EXCHANGE

TRADING STATEMENT FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 31 AUGUST 2025

In terms of paragraph 3.4(b) of the JSE Listings Requirements, companies are required to publish a trading
statement as soon as a reasonable degree of certainty exists that the financial results to be reported upon next,
being the financial results for the six months ended 31 August 2025 ("HY2026" or the "Current Period"), will differ
by at least 20% from the financial results for the corresponding period in the prior year, being the financial results
for the six months ended 31 August 2024 ("HY2025" or the "Comparative Period").

Shareholders are advised that a reasonable degree of certainty exists that the net asset value ("NAV"):

-   per ordinary share for the Current Period will be R13.40, representing an increase of 108%, when compared
    to the NAV per ordinary share for the Comparative Period (HY2025: R6.44). Relative to the NAV per ordinary
    share of R11.49 reported as at 28 February 2025, the Current Period NAV reflects an increase of 16.6%.
-   per preferred ordinary A share for the Current Period is R2.00, a marginal increase of 0.5% when compared
    to the NAV per preferred ordinary A share for the Comparative Period (HY2025: R1.99). When measured
    against the NAV per preferred ordinary A share of R2.22 reported as at 28 February 2025, the Current Period
    NAV per preferred ordinary A share reflects a decrease of 9.9%.
-   per preferred ordinary B share for the Current Period is R4.93, representing a decrease of 50% when compared
    to the NAV per preferred ordinary B share for the Comparative Period (HY2025: R 9.85).The NAV per preferred
    ordinary B share remained unchanged relative to the NAV per preferred ordinary B share of R4.93 reported
    as at 28 February 2025.
-   per preferred ordinary C share for the Current Period is R3.44, representing an increase of 13.5% when
    compared to the NAV per preferred ordinary C share for the Comparative Period (HY2025: R3.03) and as at
    February 2025 of R3.03.

The changes in NAV per share are attributable to:

-   The increase in NAV per ordinary share is primarily due strong fair value gains across the Company's
    investment portfolio, driven by favourable market conditions and improved valuations of several underlying
    assets. These developments align with the Company's strategic focus on delivering long-term shareholder
    value through disciplined investment selection and active portfolio management. The marked increase in NAV
    underscores the resilience and growth potential of the portfolio in a dynamic market environment.
-   The NAV per preferred ordinary A share reflects the performance of a relatively stable share class in a dynamic
    market environment, while the short-term movement since February 2025 underscores the impact of market
    volatility on valuations. The outcome reaffirms management's commitment to disciplined portfolio oversight
    and a long-term focus on delivering value to shareholders.
-   The decline in NAV per preferred ordinary B share primarily reflects the impact of the ongoing restructuring of
    the business, which, while necessary for long-term sustainability, has exerted short-term pressure on asset
    valuations and operational performance. The stability of the NAV at the current level suggests that the most
    significant restructuring effects may be approaching completion, positioning the Company for future recovery
    and growth.
-   The increase in NAV per preferred ordinary C share highlights the Company's continued progress in
    operational execution, disciplined credit management, and successful capital raises, all of which have
    supported robust loan book growth and enhanced asset values. While market conditions may present some
    variability, the outlook for the preferred ordinary C share remains encouraging, underpinned by a strengthened
    balance sheet and a clear strategic focus on unlocking further value across the portfolio.

The financial information contained in this announcement has not been reviewed or reported on by the auditors of
the Company.
