REVIEWED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE YEAR
ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025 AND CASH DIVIDEND DECLARATION


1.   SALIENT FEATURES

     Revenue increased by 10% to R4,291 million from R3,913 million in the prior
     corresponding period.

     Fund management earnings per share, excluding the impact of the SARS matter,
     amounted to 452.2 cents per share, an increase of 12% from 402.9 cents per share in the
     prior corresponding period.

     Gross total dividends per share decreased by 20% to 454.0 cents per share, from 566.0
     cents per share in the prior corresponding period.

     Fund management earnings are used by management to measure operating financial
     performance, which excludes the net impact of fair value gains and losses and related
     foreign exchange movements on investment securities held for seeding products. Fund
     management earnings per share decreased by 26% to 454.0 cents per share from 617.1
     cents per share in the prior corresponding period. Headline earnings per share and
     earnings per share decreased by 25% to 474.3 cents per share, from 630.5 cents per
     share in the prior corresponding period. This is due to the once off impact of the successful
     outcome of the SARS matter, wherein the tax provision raised during the 2023 financial
     year was reversed and included as income in that period.

2.   CASH DIVIDEND DECLARATION

     The directors resolved to declare a final gross dividend of 254.0 cents (2024: 228.0 cents)
     per share from income reserves in respect of the year ended 30 September 2025. The
     dividend amount, net of South African dividend tax of 20%, is 203.2 cents (2024: 182.4
     cents) per share for those shareholders who are not exempt from dividend tax. The
     number of ordinary shares in issue at the declaration date is 349 592 298 and the number
     of the subscription shares (being the shares issued to the BEE Trusts in the 2024 B-BBEE
     transaction) in issue is 37 567 515, which attracts a 10% trickle dividend. The income tax
     number of the Company is 9 675 107 719.

     The salient dates of the dividend declaration are:
