TRADING PERFORMANCE

At 30 June 2024, the group traded out of 701 restaurants in 15 countries (2023: 639). In South Africa,
27 new restaurants were opened during the period and 9 closed. 11 new restaurants opened
internationally and 4 closed. 37 restaurants were added to the group's restaurant profile with the
acquisition of a 60% share in the Doppio Collection, as previously reported, effective from 1 December
2023.

Trading patterns have been volatile over the past year owing to pressure on consumer spending in the
difficult macroeconomic climate.

The first quarter of the reporting period delivered a strong performance off a high base. While the
second quarter was marked by slower trading patterns, restaurant turnovers were boosted by robust
trading in December 2023. The second half of the financial year continued with slower trading
volumes. A positive upturn in trade was experienced in June during the mid-year school holidays.

Despite the mounting pressure on disposable income, the group continued to attract customers into
restaurants with its distinct and differentiated value proposition. Significant brand innovation
initiatives permeated across the group which included the rebranding of the 57-year-old Spur Steak
Ranches brand that has created a new interest among both consumers and franchisees. In addition,
the increased marketing investment in a Family Club advertising campaign attracted 1.1 million new
loyalty club members resulting in a record high 3.1 million active Family Club members in the financial
year. The Spur brand's voucher redemption rate of 78% is evidence that consumers are seeking value
and rewards for their strained disposable income. Customer count numbers remain unchanged on the
previous year but pleasingly average-spend-per-head grew above menu price inflation.

FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

The trading performance led to a continued strong growth in both group revenue and profit.

The revenue growth was supported by improved franchised restaurant turnovers and increased sales
from the manufacturing and distribution division which grew by 9.9% (8.7% excluding Doppio
Collection). Growth in sales in the retail company stores was a pleasing 119.5% positively impacted by
the contribution from the Doppio Collection restaurants. Excluding these restaurants, revenue from
retail company stores reports a decline of 4.7% as a result of two less stores trading in F2024. On a
like-for-like basis, The Hussar Grill retail company stores report a 5.1% growth in revenue.

Group profit before income tax increased by 7.3% to R341.7 million (F2023: R318.4 million).

Group headline earnings increased by 10.8% to R236.1 million (F2023: R213.1 million), with diluted
headline earnings per share 9.4% higher at 284.34 cents (F2023: 260.01 cents).

The company's unrestricted cash balance was R365.7 million at 30 June 2024 (31 December 2023:
R288.0 million).

The cash generation and the allocation of the group's capital remains a key focus area of the executive
directors and the board.

PAYMENT OF CASH DIVIDEND

Shareholders are advised that the board of directors of the company has, on 20 August 2024, resolved
to declare a final gross cash dividend for the year ended 30 June 2024 of R107.4 million, which equates
to 118.0 cents per share and the full-year dividend increasing by 10.9% to 213.0 cents per share, for
each of the 90 996 932 shares in issue, subject to the applicable tax levied in terms of the Income Tax
Act (Act No. 58 of 1962), as amended (dividend withholding tax).
The dividend has been declared from income reserves. The dividend withholding tax is 20% and a net
dividend of 94.4 cents per share will be paid to those shareholders who are not exempt from dividend
withholding tax.

The company's income tax reference number is 9695015033. The company has 90 996 932 shares in
issue at the date of declaration.

In accordance with the provisions of Strate, the electronic settlement and custody system used by the
JSE Limited, the relevant dates for the dividend are as follows:

Event                                               Date
Last day to trade "cum dividend"                    Tuesday, 10 September 2024
Shares commence trading "ex dividend"               Wednesday, 11 September 2024
Record date                                         Friday, 13 September 2024
Payment date                                        Monday, 16 September 2024

Those shareholders of the company who are recorded in the company's register as at the record date
will be entitled to the dividend.
Share certificates may not be dematerialised or rematerialised between Wednesday, 11 September
2024, and Friday, 13 September 2024, both days inclusive.

OUTLOOK

While South Africa's economic growth is forecast to accelerate in the year ahead, this is unlikely to
translate into improved trading conditions in the short term.

Supported by a portfolio of ten distinctive restaurant brands, Spur Corporation is well positioned to
gain market share in various categories, regions and countries.

The group continues to secure key trading sites and plans to open 47 new restaurants in South Africa
and 13 internationally in the 2025 financial year.
