# The Prior Period has been restated due to the classification of enX's Lubricant segment, AG Lubricants, as a disposal group held for sale and
  discontinued operation as at 1 December 2024. The Prior Period EPS, Diluted EPS and HEPS remain unchanged on a total enX Group basis. The split
  between continuing and discontinued operations has, however, changed due to AG Lubricants being classified as a disposal group held for sale and
  discontinued operation from 1 December 2024.

The results for the half-year reflect a good performance in the Chemical segment but, with almost no load-shedding in the current
period, demand within Power reduced considerably compared to the prior period. 

The net asset value per share was R8.65 per share (31 August 2024: R9.06). A special distribution of R1.55 per ordinary share,
amounting to R283 million, was declared on 12 March 2025 and paid on the 7 April 2025 after the current reporting period. 
Revenue from continuing operations decreased 10% to R1.134 billion (2024: R1.266 billion). Revenue within the Chemical segment was
similar to the prior period with average selling prices of chemicals being up, but was offset with lower period-on-period volumes.
Power revenues across all revenue streams were down significantly due to minimal load-shedding, which previously presented
significant opportunities.

Operating profit from continuing operations before net finance costs and impairments, was R41 million (2024: R69 million), down
significantly due to lower demand in Power compared to the same period last year offset by better margins from the Chemicals
segment. 

Net financing income was R23 million (2024: R10 million) due to lower borrowings and higher cash balances.
Profit before tax from continuing operations was R64 million (2024: R79 million), down 19%.

Headline earnings per share from continuing operations was 22 cents per share (2024: 31 cents per share), down 29%.

The financial results for the six months ended 28 February 2025 have not been audited or reviewed by the Group's external auditors.
