1 During the current year, the group's definition of trading profit was amended to include movements in futures contracts (note 1). Comparative trading profit disclosure has not been restated for this change; however, the comparative impact of this change would have resulted in a ZAR5m increase in 1H FY20 trading profit and a ZAR25m decrease in 1H FY19 trading profit.
