Canaf announces termination of B-BBEE Agreement for South African Subsidiary

Canaf Group Inc. has terminated the agreement to sell 30 per cent of its subsidiary to Elkhat Pty. Ltd., as part of its Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment, transaction. Further to the announcement on Jan. 29, 2018, the company advises that a letter of termination has been issued to Elkhat Pty. Ltd., after the parties failed to agree final terms of the transaction. The company remains confident that it will complete its B-BBEE transaction for its South African subsidiary, Southern Coal Pty. Ltd., with a new partner, which has already been identified. The terms of any new agreement will remain the same in principal and the company expects the new transaction to close by May 18, 2018.

Christopher Way, chief executive officer of Canaf, states, "Despite Elkhat and the company not being able to agree on final terms of the transaction, the company remains confident that it will achieve its B-BBEE goals during the current fiscal year and we remain optimistic of the opportunities that will arise from such a transaction."
