Investment portfolio
Mahube is an infrastructure company that offers investors exposure to infrastructure assets in Southern Africa.
The vision of Mahube is to stimulate fast, inexpensive and sustainable delivery and upkeep of infrastructure on a
significant scale. Mahube aims to provide investment returns that are characterised by predictable and regular
cash flows generated from infrastructure assets, long-term investment into ownership and operation of assets,
and blue-sky upside from providing disruptive solutions to infrastructure-related market inefficiencies. Currently
Mahube has invested in and holds equity interests in two wind farms and three solar photovoltaic farms with a
collective power generation capacity of approximately 400 MW. Four of the renewable energy assets were
licensed during Bid Window Round 1 of the Renewable Energy Independent Power Procurement Programme in
South Africa. The fifth was licensed during Bid Window Round2. Each asset generates electricity that it sells to
Eskom under a 20-year power purchase agreement.

The total revenue earned by the Company during the year was R68.2 million compared to a negative amount of
R14.1 million in the prior year.
The dividend income portion of this total revenue was R50.1 million increasing from R18.0 million in the prior year.
This increase in dividend income is attributable to healthy dividends received from our investee companies,
together with two of the projects paying special dividends with their respective project refinancing.
The positive change in fair value of the financial assets, which has increased the revenue by R17.2 million
compared to a decrease of R33.1 million in the comparative period, resulted mainly from a revision of wind
forecasts and more favourable macro-economic indicators
Operating expenses for the period decreased slightly from R15.4 million to R15.1 million in the comparative period
last year.
The tangible net asset value per share of the Company increased from R9.91 in the comparative period last
year to R10.52 in the current period.
