SA-based cellular group MTN`s financial results for the six months to end June will be released on 30 August.

In a JSE statement issued late yesterday, the company said it expects basic headline earnings per share of between 283c and 293c, adjusted earnings per share of 273c to 283c, and attributable earnings per share of 283c and 293c.

Due to the recent change in MTN`s financial year-end, there is no comparable six-month reporting period, added the statement.

The group cautions that the trading statement has neither been reviewed nor reported on by MTN`s external auditors.
