TRADING STATEMENT


In terms of the Listings Requirements of the Johannesburg Stock Exchange,
companies are required to publish a trading statement as soon as there is a
reasonable degree of certainty that the financial results for the period to be
reported upon will differ by at least 20% from the financial results for the
previous corresponding period.

During the current period, the company improved its performance in
comparison to the period ended 30 September 2021 despite the turbulent
economic conditions that prevailed. As a result, shareholders are advised that
it is reasonably certain that, for the interim period ended 30 September 2022:

   -   the headline earnings per share will be between 140 cents and 160 cents
       per share, representing an increase of between 43,9% and 64,4% as
       compared to the headline earnings of 97,3 cents per share reported for
       the interim period ended 30 September 2021, and

   -   the earnings per share will be between 140 cents and 160 cents per
       share, representing an increase of between 42,9% and 63,3% as
       compared to the earnings of 98,0 cents per share reported for the interim
       period ended 30 September 2021.

Shareholders are advised that the company is in the process of finalising its
results for the period concerned and it is expected that these results will be
released on SENS on or about 23 November 2022.

The financial information on which this trading statement is based has not been
reviewed nor reported on by the company’s auditors.


By order of the board.
