TRADING STATEMENT FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 28 DECEMBER 2025
In terms of paragraph 3.4(b) of the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited, a company is required to publish a trading statement as soon as the company becomes reasonably certain that the financial results for the period to be reported on ("current period") will differ by at least 20% from that of the prior comparative reporting period ("comparative period").
Shareholders of Rainbow are advised that the Company expects its earnings per share ("EPS") for the current period to be between 69.46 cents (+95.2%) and 76.57 cents (+115.2%) when compared to the reported EPS of 35.58 cents for the comparative period. Headline earnings per share ("HEPS") for the current period is expected to be between 69.46 cents (+94.9%) and 76.59 cents (+114.9%) when compared to the reported HEPS of 35.64 cents for the comparative period.
The anticipated improvement in EPS and HEPS is primarily driven by Rainbow's relentless focus on agricultural performance, operational efficiencies, strong demand and lower feed costs as a consequence of reduced commodity input costs.

The Group's financial results for the current period are expected to be published on SENS on or about Wednesday, 11 March 2026.
