*This content is brought to you by Prosus

It has been a standout year for the Group. Prosus simplified its Group structure, delivered improvements across all core performance metrics and achieved e-commerce profitability six months ahead of target. Operating businesses have performed well, accelerating profitable growth, while the open-ended buyback programme continues to deliver value for our shareholders every day. The rapid deployment of AI-led technologies across the  Prosus ecosystem is generating real results and will set the next frontier of value creation for the Group. Prosus has a strong balance sheet and is well positioned to generate improved returns through smart and disciplined capital allocation, driving value for all stakeholders. 

On 17 May 2024, the Board announced the appointment of Fabricio Bloisi, former iFood  CEO, as Prosus and Naspers Group CEO, effective from 1 July 2024. Ervin Tu, Interim  Group CEO, will become Group President and Chief Investment Officer (CIO).

Accelerated peer-leading topline growth of 19%, with e-commerce consolidated revenue of  US$5.5bn. 
Achieved consolidated e-commerce profitability ahead of target, with a US$451m1 improvement in trading profit to US$38m. 
Free cash flow increased US$773m to US$524m, a 3x improvement year-on-year. 
US$32bn of value created by the ongoing buyback programme since launch, delivering  8% NAV per share accretion.
Group structure simplified through the removal of the cross-holding agreement between  Prosus and Naspers.

Ervin Tu, Interim Group CEO, Prosus and Naspers, commented: “We have made substantial progress this year in delivering against our strategy. Our E-commerce portfolio is profitable for the first time ever, and our ongoing buyback has created significant shareholder value. We also reorganised the Group, bringing us closer to our businesses so that we can enhance their performance further. AI continues to be the highest priority,  and our in-house AI expertise, combined with our implementation of AI in practice across our entire portfolio, are distinct competitive advantages. AI is instrumental to our efforts  in building and investing behind the next wave of technology leaders.” 

Fabricio Bloisi, incoming Group CEO, said: “These results illustrate the amazing progress we’ve made, as well as our future potential. Prosus operates in some of the world’s most dynamic markets and through our technology ecosystem, we can make a real difference to the lives of our more than two billion customers. In June, I’ve learnt more about our business and I’m even more excited about the potential to further leverage our ecosystem and keep improving our results. I’m confident in our ability to innovate,  collaborate and lead within existing and new sectors, and to grow our businesses profitability. I begin on 1 July 2024 and am excited about the enormous potential to generate long-term value for all our stakeholders.”
