DEBT AND COVENANTS
Despite over two years of various restrictions and closures affecting the business as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, 
the group was within its original net leverage covenants for the 12 months ended 31 March 2022. The net debt to adjusted 
EBITDA ratio for the year, as measured for covenant purposes, amounted to 2.89 times, the required covenant being less 
than 3.0 times.

With the focus for the year under review being on cash generation and a return to being within covenants, the group
managed to reduce its net interest-bearing debt and guarantees significantly by R1.9 billion from R10.9 billion at 
31 March 2021 to R9.0 billion at 31 March 2022.

At the date of this report, the directors are not aware of any circumstances whereby the group should not be able to
achieve the original covenant requirements for September 2022.

FINANCIAL
The total income generated for the 2022 financial year was R8.9 billion (up 57% compared to the prior year), EBITDA
was R3.1 billion (up 80%) and adjusted EBITDA (after IFRS 16 adjustments) was R3.0 billion (up 83%, but still some 22%
below pre-COVID-19 levels).

Headline earnings achieved for the year was R1.15 billion compared to a R32 million headline loss in the prior year.

DIVIDEND
The Board of Directors has decided to postpone the decision of the possible declaration of a final dividend in respect
of the year ended 31 March 2022, until the Board meeting to be held in August 2022.
