Corporate governance report - Relations with shareholders

For Netcare, regular stakeholder communication about the Group’s activities is essential and we endeavour to timeously present appropriate information.

Investor relation activities include presentation of interim and annual results, participation in investor conferences, issuing regular updates of trading performance and arranging periodic site visits for major investors.

Netcare endeavours to periodically and regularly communicate with its shareholders and other members of the investment community about its business operations only through designated representatives. All new material and price-sensitive information is disseminated via a formal press release and on the JSE’s electronic news service (SENS) to ensure appropriate public disclosure.

During closed periods, no communication with the investor community by directors, officers and designated members of Group management with access to price-sensitive information is permitted.
