Impact of COVID-19 on timing of filing Net1’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q

JOHANNESBURG, May 4, 2020 – Net1 (Nasdaq: UEPS, JSE: NT1) today announced that the
impact caused by the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic has led to disruptions in the day-
to-day activities for Net1, including reducing our staffing levels and limiting our access to facilities
and certain technology systems that we rely on to timely prepare our Quarterly Report on Form 10-
Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 (the “Quarterly Report”). As a result, we anticipate that
additional time will be required in order to develop and process our financial information as well as
prepare the required disclosures related to the impact of COVID-19. These circumstances will delay
our ability to complete our Quarterly Report. As a result, we will be relying on the Securities and
Exchange Commission’s Orders under Section 36 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, dated March 4, 2020 and March 25, 2020 (Release Nos. 34-88318 and 34-88465) to delay
the filing of our Quarterly Report. We expect to file our Quarterly Report on or about May 22, 2020
(but in any event no later than June 25, 2020, which is 45 days from the Quarterly Report’s original
filing deadline of May 11, 2020).
