AFARAK MOGALE (PTY) LTD (IN BUSINESS RESCUE) – PROPOSED BUSINESS RESCUE PLAN
Stock Exchange Release
The business rescue practitioners in Afarak Mogale (Pty) Ltd (”Mogale”) circulated to all stakeholders a proposed business rescue plan prepared in terms of Section 150 of the Companies Act, and that a meeting will be held on 16 September 2020.
If the proposed business rescue plan is accepted, it will lead to a loss of control and reclassification to discontinued operation of Mogale. The impact is currently being assessed and will be quantified after approval of the plan, though we do not expect that this loss of control will have a negative accounting impact.
