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.

Further to the trading statement released on SENS on 15 February 2019 wherein
shareholders were advised of the court awarded settlement in respect of SAA’s anti-
competitive travel agent incentive schemes (“the Award”), shareholders are advised that as
a direct result of the Award, earnings per share (“EPS”) and headline earnings per share
(“HEPS”) for the financial year ending 30 June 2019 are expected to be more than 20%
higher than the EPS of 69.8 cents and HEPS of 69.5 cents in the previous corresponding
period. The Award, a once off item, is expected to increase EPS and HEPS by 277.43
cents.

Shareholders are further advised that EPS and HEPS excluding the Award for the financial
year ending 30 June 2019 are expected to be more than 20% lower than the previous
corresponding period. The effects of the settlement will be fully disclosed in the financial
results.

Comair is currently finalising its results for the year ended 30 June 2019. An expected
earnings and headline earnings range will be published when the Group has reasonable
certainty pertaining to the results.

The financial information on which this trading statement is based has not been reviewed
and reported on by Comair’s external auditors.
