| The graph represents Bidvest’s share price performance relative to indices which have been adjusted to give a more meaningful comparison to that of its peer group. A major constituent of the indices, Richemont Securities AG, has been excluded from the adjusted indices as its business is offshore and in completely different markets. |
| Market capitalisation as at June 30 2007 was R48,4 billion (R42,8 billion net of treasury shares) |
| R1 000 invested at the start of Bidvest, capital and dividend distributions re-invested, would have been worth an estimated R468 692, a return of 33,4% per year. |
