EXX | Replacement BEE Transaction

Exxaro (EXX) released a circular to shareholders yesterday relating to the proposed implementation of the Replacement BEE Transaction. This Replacement Transaction closely resembles its original form but contains additional details on the mechanisms governing NewBEECo. The circular included a clause that any special dividend received by NewBEECo, out of proceeds from the disposal of EXX's interest in Tronox, will be applied fully towards the settlement of Third Party Funding. Thus, if EXX was to distribute the entire first tranche of the Tronox sales as a special dividend (R18/share), we estimate that NewBEECo could be debt free by 2020f.

SA Investment Strategy | Review of January 2020 for SA investors: Coronavirus weighs on the ZAR

From an SA asset-allocation perspective, SA Bonds (ALBI +1.2%) outperformed cash (STEFI +0.6%) and equities (Capped SWIX -2.6%) in Jan â€˜20. The ZAR was the worst performing EM currency in Jan â€˜20, depreciating by 6.8% against the USD, as EM risk appetite declined, with the Coronavirus spreading further than the Sars virus, which began in 2002, likely to hit global growth. Our discussions with various corporates in China suggest that the Coronavirus will peak over the coming weeks and could take until Mar '20 to resolve.
