MUR 15.35
Annual Report 2019
Group revenue increased by 12% for the year, mainly explained by the higher sales achieved by the Group’s East African sugar operations and the Property cluster. Normalised EBITDA decreased slightly by 3% as the better performance of the Property cluster mostly offset those of the Sugar and Energy clusters.

Gearing and finance costs increased as the group geared up to finance further developments of its sugar operations in Tanzania and Kenya while equity was adversely affected by the asset impairment charges.
