The average credit period on sales is 60 days. No interest is charged on the overdue trade receivables.
Included in the Group’s trade receivables balance are debtors arising in Egypt which are past due at the reporting date
for which the Group has not provided against as there has not been a significant change in credit quality and the
amounts are still considered recoverable. Further details are provided in the table below. This is a key source of
estimation uncertainty and is discussed in further detail in the “Debtor recoverability” section of note 4.

Amount due from a related party represents the amounts lent to the Chief Operating Officer (COO) of the Group so
that he could meet his obligations under an historical agreement with a third party on behalf of the Group and
purchase a specified number of shares of the Company held by that third party, until such time as the COO is able to
sell the shares and repay the loan to the Company. The Company anticipates that, as and when the COO is required to
purchase shares from the third party, it will purchase them from the COO and hold them as treasury shares.
Subsequent to the period end, the Company obtained shareholder approval to do so in relation to the shares held by
the COO at the period end. Further details are provided in note 30.
