Motus Holdings Limited — Audited consolidated and separate annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2025
Year ended 30 June 2025 · Audited financial statements · signed / final
Audit: PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc. (Director: TJ Howatt), unmodified opinion · signed
Auditor's sign-off: PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc., Director: TJ Howatt
Final status: The independent auditors' report (PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc., unmodified; PDF pp22-29) closes with the firm's handwritten-style signature 'PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc.' above 'Director: TJ Howatt, Registered Auditor, Johannesburg, South Africa, 1 September 2025' (p29, page image). The board approval of 1 September 2025 (p4) lists the Chairman, CEO and CFO by typeset name only; the reporting suite states 'for security purposes, signatures are not included in the Motus reporting suite' (p2).

- The document names the JSE Main Board as the listing (share code MTH, p2); the directory lists the share on A2X (MTH). Kept as the directory gives it.
- Assets classified as held-for-sale (335; 2024: 727) are printed below the current-assets total (40 948) and are not part of it; total assets = non-current + current + held-for-sale (p30). Cash and cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows (545; 2024: 49) are cash resources (2 666; 1 729) less bank overdrafts (2 121; 1 680) (note 6.4, PDF p97); the overdrafts sit inside current interest-bearing debt, not on a balance-sheet line, so the cash-to-balance-sheet checks fail as printed.
