INITIAL TRADING STATEMENT

In terms of the JSE 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.

The Company hereby advises that a reasonable degree of certainty exists that, for the year
ended 28 February 2026 ("Current Period"):

-   loss per share ("LPS") is expected to improve by at least 60%, representing an
    improvement of at least 22.66 cents per share, when compared to the LPS of 32.37 cents
    for the year ended 28 February 2025 ("Prior Period"); and
-   headline loss per share ("HLPS") is expected to improve by at least 30%, representing an
    improvement of at least 1.95 cents per share, when compared to the HLPS of 6.50 cents
    for the Prior Period.

The Company anticipates Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation
("EBITDA") to improve by at least 40%, when compared to the EBITDA of R51,149,000 for
the Prior Period. LPS, HLPS and EBITDA have improved due to improved revenues, a
substantial reduction in operating costs as a result of the disposal of branches in the prior year
and other cost saving initiatives implemented during the current year. The results also include
once-off costs incurred in the closure of loss-making operations.

A further trading statement, as required in terms of the JSE Listings Requirements, will be
released on SENS as soon as the Company has a reasonable degree of certainty on the
expected LPS and HLPS ranges or numbers for the Current Period.

The financial information on which this trading statement is based has not been reviewed nor
reported on by the Company's external auditors. The audited results for the Current Period
are expected to be published on or about 29 May 2026.
