Shareholders are referred to the announcement released on SENS on 24 June 2013 and are now advised that the Competition Tribunal has confirmed the administrative penalty of R311 million in three equal instalments over a period of 2 years.
Shareholders are advised that WBHO entered into a settlement agreement with the Competition Commission relevant to its fast track settlement investigation into historical anti-competitive practices in the construction industry on Sunday 23 June 2013.
The board believes it is appropriate to advise shareholders of the following developments.
The group increased revenue by 43,4% from R8,4 billion to R12 billion for the six months to December 2012. All divisions showed increased revenue with a major increase of 61% for Australia resulting from increased activity in the high rise residential market.
In compliance with the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited, shareholders are hereby notified of the resignation of Mr Malcolm McCulloch as non-executive director with effect from 22 February 2013 to pursue a newly acquired interest in a long steel products business which is a direct competitor of Capital Africa Steel an associate in which WBHO has a 50% interest.
The directors advise that the unaudited consolidated results for Wilson Bayly Homes-Ovcon Limited for the six months ended 31 December 2012 will show a 2.5% to 7.5% increase in earnings per share and a 15% to 20% increase in headline earnings per share compared to the comparative period.
WBHO is currently engaging in confidential discussions with the Competition Commission pursuant to the Commission’s invitation to the construction industry. These discussions involve a small number of projects and WBHO hopes to conclude this process shortly, at which stage investors will be advised accordingly.
Shareholders are advised that at today’s annual general meeting all the resolutions set out in the notice and proposed at the meeting were passed by the requisite majority of shareholders.
