    “The audited AFS will also be available on the Company's website and through the JSE cloudlink https://senspdf.jse.co.za/documents/2026/jse/isse/GNDE/AFS2025.pdf on which the Company's auditors, PricewaterhouseCoopers Incorporated, issued an unqualified audit opinion.”

  • The reliance on a virtual AGM format for the upcoming meeting on 11 June 2026, while standard, limits direct shareholder engagement and oversight during a period where the company is trading at peak valuation levels.
