SHORT FORM ANNOUNCEMENT: FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED
30 JUNE 2023



1.   SALIENT FEATURES

     GPI reported a headline profit of R11.0 million for the financial year ended 30 June 2023,
     an improvement of R24.7 million (180%) from a loss of R13.7 million for the prior
     corresponding period.

     Revenue from continuing operations (consisting primarily of dividends received from the
     Spur Corporation) decreased by R9.3 million, to R1.3 million from R10.7 million in the
     prior corresponding period, following the unbundling of the Group’s Spur Corporation
     shares.

     Headline earnings per share increased by 180% to 2.56 cents per share from a loss of
     3.20 cents per share in the prior corresponding period.

     Basic loss per share increased by 30% to 3.54 cents per share, from 2.73 cents per share
     in the prior corresponding period. The increase in loss per share is primarily due to costs
     associated with the restructuring transactions, including the acquisition of a majority of
     GPI shares by GMB Liquidity Corporation (Pty) Ltd during the financial year. The losses
     include the impairment of the properties held for sale and additional legal and related
     transaction costs.
