Trading Statement

ALARIS HOLDINGS LIMITED
(Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa)

(“Alaris” or “the Company”)

TRADING STATEMENT

In terms of the JSE Limited Listings Requirements, a listed company is required to publish a
trading statement as soon as it becomes reasonably certain that the financial results for the
next period to be reported on will differ by 20% or more from the financial results for the
previous corresponding period.

Alaris is currently finalising its results for the six months ended 31 December 2018. In this
regard, shareholders are advised that the Company expects earnings per share (“EPS”) and
headline earnings per share (“HEPS”) for the six months ended 31 December 2018 to be at
least 20% lower relative to the prior comparative period.

Alaris will publish a more detailed trading statement in due course.

The decrease is mainly from a decline in revenue at Alaris Antennas and COJOT compared
to the corresponding interim period. A significant portion of the Group’s performance is
associated with long sales cycles on larger opportunities with six to twelve month delivery
timeframes. The timing of these opportunities can impact the results significantly. The group
had a very strong comparative first half in FY18 with COJOT posting an exceptional
performance. This year’s first half revenue has been impacted by a low order intake in the
first quarter. However, order intake picked up in the second quarter.
