TRADING STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 28 FEBRUARY 2022

The Board of Directors is satisfied that a reasonable degree of certainty
exists that the Group's financial results for the year ended 28 February
2022 will differ by at least 20% from those reported for the year ended 28
February 2021 (“the prior comparable year”) and is therefore able to issue
this trading statement in terms of Section 3.4(b)(i) of the Listings
Requirements of the JSE Limited.

The impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic (“pandemic”) and resultant
national lockdowns and trading restrictions have continued to impact the
Group’s results.

Our performance recovered from the pandemic’s      worst   financial   impacts,
compared to the prior comparable year.

The prior comparable year’s earnings were negatively impacted by a loss
from discontinued operations of R1.1 billion (net of tax).

As a result, the reported headline earnings per share (HEPS)(including
discontinued operations) is expected to increase between 473% and 555%
when compared to the prior comparable year and the reported basic earnings
per share (BEPS)(including discontinued operations)is expected to
increase between 123% and 128% when compared to the prior comparable
year.

HEPS from continuing operations are expected to be within the range of
320 cents to 392 cents and BEPS within the range of 285 cents to 349
cents.
