What the board meeting produced
- The Board of WPIL Limited considered and approved the unaudited financial results, both standalone and consolidated, for the quarter and half-year ended 30 September 2026. The meeting commenced at 11-30 hrs and concluded at 12-51 hrs.

- Salarpuria & Partners, Chartered Accountants (Firm ICAI Regn. No. 302113E), issued the Limited Review Report on the consolidated results.
Auditor's review conclusion
- The conclusion is unmodified. Based on the review, nothing has come to the auditors' attention that causes them to believe the statement does not disclose the information required, or that it contains any material misstatement.
- A review is substantially less in scope than an audit, and the auditors do not express an audit opinion.
- For five joint operations, for a set of subsidiaries and for one associate and one joint venture, the auditors relied on the reports of other independent auditors; for one subsidiary of WPIL SA Holdings Pty Limited they relied on certification by the Board of Directors. They state their conclusion is not modified in respect of this reliance.

Group changes disclosed in the notes
- Amonzi Phampa Consultants (Pty) Limited held 31% of APE Pumps Pty Limited. During the quarter it exited APE and transferred back its entire shareholding, as per agreed terms, to WPIL SA Holdings Pty Limited, so APE became a wholly owned subsidiary of WPIL SA. This was accounted for as an equity transaction under Ind AS 110.
- WPIL SA also divested its entire stake in Amonzi, and the resultant gain or loss has been recognised.
- The consolidated results include Paterson Candy International (SA) Pty Ltd and its two subsidiaries, acquired during the quarter ended 30 June 2025, so the current period is not comparable with the period ended 30 September 2025 to that extent.
- The consolidated results cover the Company, 14 subsidiaries (including 13 step-down subsidiaries), 1 Associate, 1 Joint Venture and 5 Joint Operations.
What a reader can take away

- The auditors' review conclusion is unmodified, with reliance placed on other auditors for certain group entities as described in their report.
