TRADING STATEMENT


In terms of paragraph 3.4 (b) of the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited, the board of directors of
Stefanutti Stocks hereby provides shareholders with a trading update of the Group’s results for the year ended
28 February 2019.


The Group has adopted International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) 9: Financial Instruments, IFRS 15:
Revenue from Contracts with Customers and IFRS 16: Leases effective 1 March 2018. As a consequence of
the adoption of the above IFRS standards, the prior year’s comparative earnings per share and headline
earnings per share have been restated.


As previously reported, the Building business unit is pursuing a number of contractual claims and
compensation events on a large public sector power project in South Africa. However, in terms of IAS 37:
Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, the Group has provided R263 million in the current
financial year, for potential unrecoverable preliminary and general costs to complete the project.
Notwithstanding this provision, the Group continues to actively pursue its contractual rights in terms of the
dispute resolution process as set out in the contract.


As a result of the provision, earnings per share is expected to be a loss of between 60,00 cents and 70,00
cents per share, whereas headline earnings per share is expected to be a loss of between 65,00 cents and
75,00 cents per share. The corresponding 2018 restated reporting period reflected earnings per share reported
as a loss of 317,77 cents whilst headline earnings per share reflected a profit of 67,51 cents.


The financial information on which this trading statement is based has not been reviewed or reported on by
the Group’s auditors.


The release of the results for the year ended 28 February 2019 is anticipated to be published on 30 May 2019.
