Table 50: Monthly financial summary, FY2027
Figures below R500 are shown as a dash. The first EBITDA-positive month is month 8; the first net-profit-positive month is month 30, in FY2029.
The monthly profile shows what the annual presentation compresses. Three months of pre-operating cost run before any revenue arrives; the revolver is first drawn during the second half of the year as working capital builds ahead of collections; and EBITDA turns positive in month 8, earlier than the annual figures suggest, because the FY2027 aggregate is weighed down by the fit-out quarter. Cumulative losses nonetheless continue to deepen through FY2028 and are not arrested until month 30.
