Introduction
The Board of Directors (Board) is very pleased to report a strong operational and financial performance,
driven by improved demand for its over-the-counter (OTC) and consumer healthcare products.
The Group has achieved healthy growth in turnover, which with some benefit from the exchange rate
and an advantageous sales mix, has yielded an exceptional increase in trading profit and excellent cash
generation.
Dividend
The Board has declared a final dividend of 109 cents per share for the year ended 30 June 2022 out
of income reserves, bringing the total dividend for the year to 213 cents, an increase of 25% over the
prior year and in line with the growth in earnings.
Prospects
Given the ongoing weakness in the local economy, high fuel prices and the significant deterioration of the Rand,
much of our focus for 2023 will be on management of margins.Consumers are likely to remain under pressure because
of rising food, transport and energy costs.
We remain cautious, but we are confident in the resilience of our balanced portfolio of healthcare brands,
with a proven ability to adapt to changing market dynamics.
