2 Excluding lease liabilities. 3 Effective from 1 April 2023, the functional currency of Omnia Zimbabwe changed from ZWL to USD, removing the requirement to apply IAS 29 Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies. As the comparative results for FY23 include Omnia Zimbabwe (consisting of Omnia Zimbabwe and including the Acol joint venture and the hyperinflation net monetary adjustments attributable to IAS 29 Financial Reporting in Hyperinflationary Economies), the adjusted earnings measures, which exclude the performance of Omnia Zimbabwe, remain the measures that provide stakeholders with better clarity on the Group’s underlying performance for FY24 when compared to the prior year. These earnings measures will be discontinued from our 2025 financial reporting period.
