SLIDE 11

CANCELLATION OF PSA

 Included in the original profit share agreement was a provision that grants Efficient Group the right to cancel the profit share agreement after a period of 5 years which expired on 31 August 2018  Efficient Group duly announced its intention to cancel the agreement on SENS on 15 June 2018  The terms of the cancellation agreement followed in an announcement on SENS on 5 July 2018  On 3 August 2018, the distribution of the circular and notice of general meeting was announced

  • n SENS. All (100%) of shareholders, present and by proxy, voted in favour of approving this

transaction during the Efficient Group general meeting held on 31 August 2018  The total cancellation cost amounted to R480 million  R430 million was expensed resulting in R288 million loss for the year  The after-tax cost of the transaction is calculated at R346 million  We obtained a SARS ruling to confirm this expense as a normal income deductible expense with the subsequent tax benefit COST

  • utflows

Assets under Consulting (AUC): + The growth in AUC was driven mainly by the transfer of AUM mandates to AUC mandates, at the same margins Assets under Adminis istration (AUAdmin): ): + The lower AUAdmin is attributable to the expiry of a short-term mandate

  • 2. The Naviga portfolios are model portfolios (not CIS funds). The returns are therefore gross of multi-manager fees.
