RESULTS OF THE PLACING OF 265 MILLION SHARES IN PEPKOR HOLDINGS LIMITED

Shareholders of Steinhoff International Holdings N.V. ("Steinhoff", the “Company” and together with its
subsidiaries, the “Group”) are referred to Steinhoff’s announcement released on SENS on 8 February
2023 (the “Launch Announcement”) regarding the launch of an accelerated bookbuild (the “Placing”) of
ordinary shares of no par value in Pepkor Holdings Limited (“Pepkor”) (“Placing Shares”).

Steinhoff announces the successful completion of the placement of 265 million Placing Shares, raising
total gross proceeds of R4.9 billion (c. EUR257 million). Following strong demand, Steinhoff elected to
increase the size of the Placing, which remained significantly oversubscribed at close. The Placing
Shares were placed at a price of R18.50 per share, a 5.3% discount to the pre-launch Pepkor share
price as at market close on 8 February 2023.

Accordingly, 265 million Placing Shares, constituting approximately 7.2% of total issued Pepkor Shares,
will be allocated in the Placing. Following the conclusion of the Placing, the Company’s interest in
Pepkor will reduce from 51.0% to approximately 43.8% and the free float of Pepkor will increase from
approximately 49.0% to 56.2%.

Steinhoff continues to view Pepkor as a strategic investment for the Group and as such Steinhoff has
agreed to a 90-day lock-up period, subject to customary exceptions and waiver by the Managers.
Proceeds from the Placing will in due course be used to de-leverage Steinhoff’s capital structure.
Settlement of the Placing is expected to occur on Tuesday, 14 February 2023.

Investec Bank Limited and Morgan Stanley & Co. International plc (together, the “Managers”) acted as
managers in respect of the Placing.

The Company has a primary listing on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and a secondary listing on the
securities exchange operated by the JSE Limited.
