Zou het op 16 november afgegeven statement eens beter lezen dan kun je duidelijk lezen dat
het een verwachting betreft , welke men verplicht is te melden bij een notering in Zuid Afrika, dus eigenlijk is het gewoon een preview die
op zijn minst 20 % kan verschillen, dus de definitieve resultaten kunnen uiteindelijk heel veel beter zijn uitgevallen.
For context, in terms of the JSE Listings Requirements, South African listed entities with a primary listing on the exchange are obliged to issue a trading statement as soon they are reasonably certain that the upcoming financial results would differ by at least 20% from those of the previous corresponding period. Trading statements are generally issued to provide shareholders with a range of outcomes in respect of key financial metrics.
The financial results of Prosus almost completely account for Naspers’ results. Based on Naspers’ anticipated period ended 30 September 2020 results, Naspers is required to issue a trading statement in terms of the above JSE listing requirements. To ensure that shareholders of Prosus are provided simultaneously with equivalent information,
Prosus is issuing this trading statement.
More details will be published with the condensed consolidated interim financial statements on Monday, 23 November 2020.
