TRADING STATEMENT

In terms of the JSE Limited Listings Requirements, companies are required to provide guidance to
the market when they are satisfied that a reasonable degree of certainty exists that the financial
results for the current reporting period will differ by at least 20% from the results of the previous
corresponding reporting period.

Comair is currently finalising its results for the six months ended 31 December 2018. In this
regard, shareholders are advised that for the six months ended 31 December 2018, both earnings
per share (“EPS”) and headline earnings per share (“HEPS”) are expected to be between 35%
and 45% lower than that of the six months ended 31 December 2017 (“comparative period”) at
between 24 cents and 29 cents per share (comparative period EPS and HEPS of 43.6 cents per
share).

The decrease in earnings can largely be attributed to a 35% increase in the price of jet fuel for the
period.

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

The results for the six months ended 31 December 2018 are expected to be released on SENS
on or about 19 February 2019.
