CEO & Executive Director

Good morning, and welcome to everybody here present today inside the auditorium and then all of those joining us online. Good morning, and welcome to this presentation of our FY '26 full year results. It's my pleasure to do the introduction today and to just bring you up to speed a little bit with where we are. And I know that there's obviously been lots of coverage in the media and another trading update that was issued on Friday. But I suppose some of the real major callouts for us is that the journey that we're on is that we are pleased with the steady pace of recovery that we're showing in the organization and specifically in our top line sales growth. And we recognize that there is still an enormous amount of work to be done.

And it's amazing driving in here today, if you just have a look outside the building and you have a look at how Pick n Pay is showing up as a business today, with all of its new branding, its positioning and really getting the essence of the company back into what we do every day that this company certainly does have a heartbeat today, and it does have a pulse. And we recognize that we still got a lot of work to do, but we have done a lot in the last 2 years.

And for that, I thank my entire management team and leadership team in the company as well as
