RETIREMENT OF DIRECTOR
As announced on SENS on 18 August 2026, Mr Brand Pretorius, an independent non-executive director, has retired
from the Board and the Audit and Risk Committee with effect from 13 November 2026.
On behalf of the Board, we would like to again express our sincere appreciation to Brand Pretorius, who retires
after 15 years of dedicated and distinguished service as an independent non-executive director. Brand is a highly
respected business leader whose wealth of experience, sound judgement and deep business insight have made
an invaluable contribution to the Board over the years. His unwavering commitment to strong leadership, people
development, teamwork and customer service has enriched our discussions and helped shape our thinking. We
are particularly grateful for his wisdom, integrity and thoughtful counsel. We thank Brand for his exceptional service
and commitment to the Company and wish him every happiness and fulfilment in the years ahead.
MARKET UPDATE
Global and South African macroeconomic challenges have persisted into the new financial year.
During the period from 1 July to 31 October 2026, Italtile achieved modest Retail turnover growth of 1% year on
year. Average selling prices increased compared with the corresponding period last year, largely reflecting the pass-
through of fuel-related cost increases; however, tile volumes remained under pressure. ITD, Cedar Point and Retail
operations experienced significant supply disruptions in imported product lines because of port congestion and
international shipping delays.
Ceramic Industries remained under substantial pressure from intense competition and low-priced imports, with
existing stock levels in the market and circumvention offsetting the interim import-relief duties implemented from
July 2026. Sharp increases in energy-related costs have increased the manufacturing cost base and average selling
prices. Increased prices supported sales values despite weaker underlying volumes.
The Group continued to focus on cost management and operational efficiencies across the business, with like-for-
like operating costs increasing by approximately 3%.
Negative consumer confidence, subdued economic growth, and global economic uncertainty is likely to influence
performance over the coming months.
Growth initiatives are progressing to position Italtile optimally in this environment. New senior appointments are
already contributing positively. Discussions with a prospective buyer for the Australian operations, together with the
related due diligence process, are continuing at an advanced stage.
The information contained in this market update has not been reviewed or reported on by the Group’s external
auditors.
