VOLUNTARY UPDATE OF TAX MATTER
The purpose of this announcement is to provide shareholders of the Company
(“Shareholders”) with further information regarding the tax litigation relating to the group’s
international operations.
Shareholders are referred to the SENS announcement released on 8 February 2023, wherein
Shareholders were informed that the Supreme Court of Appeal (”SCA”) had upheld the South
African Revenue Services appeal and ordered the Company’s subsidiary, Coronation Investment
Management SA (Pty) Ltd (“CIMSA”), to pay additional taxes in respect of profits earned by
its international operations, together with interest and costs.
Subsequently CIMSA applied to the Constitutional Court for leave to appeal the SCA
judgement (refer to note 7 of the Interim Results for the six months ended 31 March 2023 for
additional information).
On Friday, 1 September 2023 the Constitutional Court issued a directive that it will hear the
Company’s application for leave to appeal and hear arguments on the merits of the matter.
The matter will be set down for hearing by the Constitutional Court in due course.
