What this filing means

Novus reported a 15% drop in EBITDA and flat revenue amid segment headwinds, but maintained its 55c dividend supported by R1bn in cash and confirmed its Mustek stake increased to 50.4%.

Bull case

  • The Group successfully increased its stake in Mustek to 50.39% post-year-end, achieving control following its mandatory offer.
  • The Packaging segment achieved an 8.9% increase in operating profit to R84.4 million, supported by a gross margin improvement to 20.1% via cost controls.

Bear case

  • Regulatory friction regarding the Mustek mandatory offer required a Takeover Special Committee settlement and forced the Group to ring-fence R311 million in cash.
