Outlook
----- End of picture text -----

Long-term growth in management EPS of 20% per year remains the target, to be achieved by a combination of organic growth and acquisitions, as well as balance sheet management Looking to FY09 and having regard to current equity, foreign exchange and interest rate market conditions, we expect Management EPS to be approximately 10% higher than FY08.
