Shareholders are further reminded that FY 2019 contained a 53rd week’s trading results. On a statutory basis, Cashbuild expects: • EPS for FY 2020 (52 weeks) of between 1 204,0 cents and 1 110,0 cents, being a decrease of between 36% and 41%; and • HEPS for FY 2020 (52 weeks) of between 1 222,7 cents and 1 127,1 cents, being a decrease of between 36% and 41%; compared to EPS of 1 881,3 cents per share and HEPS of 1 910,4 cents per share achieved for FY 2019 (53 weeks). These movements are after taking into account the implementation of IFRS 16 Leases which resulted in the depreciation of right of use assets and interest costs on the lease liabilities raised and the effects of Covid-19 lockdown level 5, during April 2020. However after eliminating the once-off effects of the aforementioned events and IFRS adoptions, on a comparable basis Cashbuild expects: • pro forma EPS for FY 2020 (52 weeks) of between 1 641,1 cents and 1 550,0 cents, being a decrease of between 10% and 15%; and • pro forma HEPS for FY 2020 (52 weeks) of between 1 667,2 cents and 1 574,6 cents, being a decrease of between 10% and 15%; compared to EPS of 1 823,5 cents and HEPS of 1 852,5 cents achieved for the prior comparable period FY 2019 (52 weeks).
