EARNINGS AND DIVIDENDS PER SHARE

EARNINGS PER SHARE

The calculation of earnings per share is based on the profit attributable to equity holders of R122 020 035 (2017: R88 133 237) and the weighted
average number of ordinary shares in issue during the year of 157 415 107 (2017: 150 028 042). The calculation of diluted earnings per share is
based on the profit of R122 020 035 (2017: R88 133 237) and the weighted average number of diluted ordinary shares in issue during the year
of 157 415 107 (2017: 150 045 972).

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

ACQUISITION OF SUBSIDIARY

On 1 July 2017, the group acquired the entire issued share capital of Micros South Africa (Pty) Ltd (Micros), a South African registered company.

Micros conducts business in the Information Technology sector, inter alia, providing software, hardware, enterprise systems integration,
consulting, support and solutions to its clients, primarily in the Hospitality industry.

The acquisition of Micros, which is a leader in its vertical market, created an entry into the Hospitality industry, a new vertical for the group,
further diversifying the group.

The purchase consideration of R134 950 940 consists of R88 889 787 in cash, paid on 19 July 2017, R33 651 703 in shares issued on 31 July 2017,
and R12 409 450 fair value of cash top-up payment.

Adapt IT agreed to provide the Micros sellers, where shares have been issued, with a one-year protection on any decrease in the value of the
shares in Adapt IT Holdings Limited on the basis that Adapt IT will become obliged to make a cash top-up payment to the applicable sellers to
place them in a similar position had they in fact been cash-settled at July 2017 in respect of their entire proceeds. In July 2017, the fair value of
the share value underpin was calculated at R12 409 450.

The fair value of the net assets acquired amounted to R56 903 617, resulting in goodwill of R78 047 323 at acquisition. The purchase consideration
paid for the combination effectively included amounts in relation to the benefit of the expected synergies, revenue growth, new market
penetration and future market development.

The fair values of the identifiable net assets and liabilities of Micros as at the date of acquisition were:

COMMENTARY

BASIS OF PREPARATION

The accounting policies and methods of computation applied in the preparation of these preliminary summarised consolidated and
company audited financial statements, which are based on reasonable judgements and estimates, are in accordance with International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and are consistent with those applied in the consolidated and company annual financial statements
for the year ended 30 June 2017. All amendments to IFRS adopted in the current year were considered insignificant to the annual
financial statements. These preliminary summarised consolidated and company audited financial statements as set out in this report
have been prepared in accordance with the framework concepts and the measurement and recognition requirements of IFRS and
the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee and Financial Pronouncements as issued by
the Financial Reporting Standards Council, and, as a minimum, contain the information required by IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
The consolidated and company annual financial statements and the summarised consolidated and company financial statements have been
prepared under the historical cost method, except for certain financial instruments initially measured at fair value and property measured at fair
value. The consolidated and company annual financial statements and the summarised consolidated and company financial statements have
been prepared on the going-concern basis and have been prepared under the supervision of Ms Nombali Mbambo CA(SA), the Chief Financial Officer.

These preliminary summarised consolidated and company audited financial statements, which have been derived from the consolidated and
company annual financial statements and with which they are consistent in all material respects, have been audited by Deloitte & Touche. Their
unmodified audit opinions on the consolidated and company annual financial statements and on the preliminary summarised consolidated

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Turnover for the year ended 30 June 2018 increased 36% to R1,348 billion (2017: R993,7 million), organic growth from continuing operations
being 13% and acquisitive growth was 30%.

Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) increased 39% to R270,1 million (2017: R194,3 million). Profit attributable to
equity shareholders grew 38% to R122,0 million (2017: R88,1 million).

Basic earnings per share increased 32% to 77,51 cents (2017: 58,74 cents) and headline earnings per share improved by 14% to 66,97 cents from
58,76 cents.

The acquisitive growth contribution of 30% comprised mainly of the Micros South Africa hospitality group acquisition, which was consolidated
with effect from 1 July 2017. Micros has a talented team of over 300 employees providing world-class solutions for the hospitality industry.
The Hospitality division supports business critical processes through providing best-of-breed software solutions to 4 200 hotel, retail and food
and beverage outlets in 18 countries.

Adapt IT also acquired the LGR group with effect from 1 June 2018. LGR is a specialist solutions provider with an exclusive focus on the global
Telecommunications industry providing and managing end-to-end data warehouse and business intelligence systems at leading international
operators, bolstering the Communications product offering.

Adapt IT received and accepted an offer to purchase its shares in CQS GRC Solutions (Pty) Ltd (CQS GRC). The transaction was concluded through
a sale of certain CQS GRC assets and liabilities, for a consideration of R20,5 million on 31 May 2018, and Adapt IT disposing of its share in CQS
GRC on 1 June 2018, for a consideration of R22,8 million. The CQS GRC disposals resulted in the group recognising a profit on disposal net of tax
amounting to R17,6 million.

SHARE REPURCHASE

Adapt IT initiated a share buyback programme to take advantage of the Adapt IT Holdings Limited (ADI) share recently having been undervalued.
Since 1 July 2017, Adapt IT repurchased 9,3 million shares, or 5.8% of the issued shares, at a weighted average price of 784 cents per share,
utilising cash of R73 million. 1,1 million of the shares repurchased were issued as consideration for the EasyRoster acquisition, with the remainder
of the shares held as treasury shares.

APPRECIATION

Sincere thanks to our customers for entrusting us with key aspects of their businesses, where we strive to add long term sustainable business
value. The Board thanks every member of the Adapt IT team for their part in what we have achieved and their commitment to pursue the goals
we have set for the business.
