Shareholders are referred to the Circular issued on 8 May 2013 and the announcement made on the same date.

As part of the JSE Limited Listings Requirements, companies are required to publish a financial trading statement as soon as they are reasonably certain that the financial results for the current reporting period will be more than 20% different to that of the prior corresponding period. Given the nature of SacOil’s business, which requires lump sum upfront capital investment, it is not unusual for there to be significant changes in the financial results from one period to another.
