O U T L O O K

Given underlying performance improvements in the fourth quarter of the 2017 financial year and based on current market conditions, we expect the positive

momentum seen in the fourth quarter to continue and that underlying performance for the first quarter of the 2018 financial year will improve

compared to the first quarter of the 2017 financial year.

The Group also expects the Better Business program to continue to track ahead of schedule in implementation and expects further balance sheet improvements

to be delivered1
