Any investment decision by investors and/or shareholders should be based on consideration of the full announcement which has been released on SENS and available for viewing on the Company's website. The Company wishes to highlight to Shareholders that per the JSE Listing Requirements, the Company is not required to audit its interim results. The audit was performed after a special request from the JSE. As there is no normal requirement to audit interim financial statements, the 28 February 2017 interim results are not audited. The Company also wishes to highlight that the 28 February 2017 interim results are free from material misstatements but by virtue of these results not being audited, the audit opinion for the 28 February 2018 interim results had to be qualified. The qualified audit report, including key audit matters relating to the audited interim results is available for inspection at the Company's registered office and on the Company. The basis for qualified opinion is that the corresponding figures relating to the interim period ended 28 February 2017 presented in the audited interim results were not subject to an independent review or an audit. Interim results are normally not required to be audited. The opinion on the audited interim results is qualified because of the possible effects of the unaudited corresponding figures relating to the period ended 28 February 2017 on the comparability of the 28 February 2018 financial information with that of the corresponding period ended 28 February 2017.
