 * These numbers are subject to change based on headcount as at 30 June 2024.

•    Overall growth in student numbers of 8% is satisfactory considering the tough economic
     environment.
•    Excluding the Milpark Education B2B business, growth in total student numbers is 15% and
     distance learning student numbers is 16%.
•    Distance learning student numbers continue to show steady growth at 8% per annum with a second
     semester intake under way.
•    An overall 8% growth in contact learning student numbers is positive, especially considering the
     lower contact learning student numbers in the past two years which negatively impacts the returning
     student numbers in the current year.
•    STADIO Higher Education's contact learning strategy is working, with total contact learning student
     numbers up 16% and new contact learning students up 14%.
•    STADIO Centurion comprehensive campus saw 52% growth in students, confirming the decision
     to begin construction of the STADIO Group's second comprehensive campus in Durbanville.
•    Construction will commence in the second half of the year and is expected to be funded 50%
     through long-term debt and 50% through cash reserves.
