Guest – Mustaq Brey – CEO of Brimstone

Brimstone today released its Group results for the six months ended 30 June 2025.

The Group reported headline earnings per share (“HEPS”) of 96.9 cents (2024: 71.9 cents), up 35% on the comparative period. This improvement was driven mainly by stronger profitability at Sea Harvest and supported by lower finance and operating costs at Brimstone.

“Despite a turbulent global and domestic economic environment, Brimstone delivered a strong performance, with attributable profit improving to R252.1 million, compared to a loss of R295.7 million in the prior period, driven primarily by the performance of Sea Harvest.
