Transaction Capital Limited TransCapital Investments Limited (Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa) (Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa) Registration number: 2002/031730/06 Registration number: 2016/130129/06 JSE share code: TCP Bond company code: TCII ISIN: ZAE000167391 LEI: 378900AA31160C6B8195 (“Transaction Capital” or “the company” or “the group”) MARKET UPDATE, FURTHER TRADING STATEMENT AND NOTICE OF INVESTOR WEBINAR Further to Transaction Capital’s pre-close update in respect of the half year ending 31 March 2023, released on SENS on 13 March 2023, the board of directors (“the board”) advises shareholders that core earnings per share (“EPS”) from continuing operations are expected to be between 46% and 41% below the prior corresponding period. For the 12 months ending 30 September 2023, core EPS from continuing operations are forecast to be between 24% to 19% below the prior corresponding period, based upon an anticipated stronger second half (refer to the trading statement at the end of this announcement). Acquisition of additional 15% stake in WeBuyCars Shareholders are referred to the announcement released on SENS on 8 September 2022 in terms of which shareholders were advised of Transaction Capital’s strategic intent to increase its shareholding in WeBuyCars by a further 15%. The proposed terms of the accelerated transaction referred to therein requires that 30% of the purchase consideration be settled with an issuance of Transaction Capital shares to the vendors. In light of the current share price, the board has resolved not to issue Transaction Capital shares at this time. As such, the accelerated transaction will not be concluded as previously communicated to shareholders. This is in agreement with the vendors. A further consequence of this decision is the company retaining the cash portion of the purchase consideration. The acquisition of the additional 15% stake in WeBuyCars will be effected in accordance with the existing put and call arrangements. This enables the purchase of this 15% stake in two equal tranches, in September 2023 and September 2024 (details are set out in the announcement released on SENS on 22 September 2021). Funding update The board confirms, there are no cross default clauses between Nutun, WeBuyCars and SA Taxi (“the subsidiaries”) and there are no holding company guarantees to the subsidiaries. In addition, there are no repricing triggers on any funding in the group. The board is currently not contemplating any issue of shares and is comfortable with the group’s liquidity position. 1 Founders’ shareholding The founders of the company (Jonathan Jawno, Michael Mendelowitz and Roberto Rossi) are indirect beneficial holders of 109 million Transaction Capital shares through Pilatucom Holdings Limited (as stated in the annual financial statements for the period ended September 2022). These shares have been pledged as security against a general finance facility related to the founders. The last trade that the founders executed in relation to their Transaction Capital shareholding was in the accelerated bookbuild announced on SENS on 18 February 2020. The founders have further advised the board that there are no circumstances under which a reduction of the Transaction Capital share price will trigger a forced sale of shares based on unrelated security pledged in respect of the facility. Further Trading Statement Shareholders were advised in the pre-close update in respect of the half year ending 31 March 2023, released on SENS on 13 March 2023, that a further trading statement would be released once there was reasonable certainty on the specific ranges, in line with section 3.4 (b) (iii) of the JSE Listings Requirements.
