discontinued operation.
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
On 30 September 2019 the board of directors approved a decision to discontinue all recycling manufacturing operations
carried out by Transpaco Recycling (Pty) Limited. Due to international and local market forces in the plastic recycling
industry Transpaco was no longer deriving any benefit from remaining in the post-consumer recycling market. Selling
price levels were restricted due to prevailing virgin polymer prices while energy, labour and distribution costs, amongst
others, kept rising. With no likelihood of the situation improving in the short to medium term, and in order to stem
losses, the board decided to discontinue the operation and sell the plant and equipment. The majority of the plant and
equipment was sold during the financial year with the balance shortly thereafter.
DIVIDEND
The board has declared a final gross cash dividend out of income reserves of 78 cents per share, resulting in total
dividends of 111 cents per share for the year ended 30 June 2020 (June 2019: 80 cents per share). After applying the
dividend withholding tax of 20% a net final dividend of 62,40000 cents per share will be paid to those shareholders
who are not exempt from the dividends tax. The issued shares at the date of declaration is 32 886 359 ordinary shares.
The income tax reference number is 9975/112/71/6.
The salient dates for the dividend are as follows:
Last date to trade shares cum dividend Monday, 21 September 2020
Shares trade ex dividend Tuesday, 22 September 2020
Record date Friday, 25 September 2020
Payment date Monday, 28 September 2020
Share certificates may not be dematerialised or rematerialised between Tuesday, 22 September 2020 and
Friday, 25 September 2020, both days inclusive.
