Accounting presentation

The car rental and leasing business, Zeda Limited was successfully unbundled and separately listed
on the JSE on 13 December 2022, while the Logistics business was successfully disposed of,
effective 31 March 2023. Both these businesses were included in the prior period as discontinued
operations.

The decrease in the group results is as a result of the exclusion of these discontinued operations in
the current reporting period.
