This week, we had the honour of attending the #StepUp2AGreenStartUp #NationalYouthEntrepreneurshipAwards in Johannesburg, which coincided with the celebration of the incredible 10-year journey of Primestars #StepUp2AGreenStartUp programme. The International Labour Organization estimates that the #GreenEconomy could create more than 24 million jobs globally. As such, Omnia is a proud key sponsor to this groundbreaking programme that focuses on educating, and empowering youth across South Africa on sustainability, sustainable practices and the green economy. Primestars Step Up 2 A Green Start-Up encourages youth to seize opportunities in the green economy and develop solutions that address pressing social and environmental challenges in their communities. In a country grappling with high youth unemployment and poverty, this programme shifts mindsets of the youth from job seekers to job creators. By encouraging #Entrepreneurship and #Sustainability, it equips the leaders of tomorrow with the tools to drive lasting change. This sentiment was echoed by the Former President of South Africa Thabo Mbeki, who stated that platforms such as these give youth the opportunity to #Rise, #Innovate and #Lead. Omnia is committed to supporting the sustainable growth of healthy, educated, and resilient communities. We are a proud partner with Primestars in investing in the future of our youth to build a more equitable, inclusive, and sustainable society. This is testament to our purpose of ‘Innovating to enhance life, together creating a greener future.’ #FutureLeaders  #YouthEntrepreneurship

Omnia delivered strong results for the half-year ending September 2024 driven by sustained robust growth in the Mining segment and strong volumes in Agriculture RSA. Despite a challenging macroeconomic environment revenue increased by 5% to R10 933 million and operating profit increased by 17% to R802 million, with margin improving to 7.3%.    This highlights the success of our diversification strategy and the strength of both the Mining and Agriculture businesses. Notably, the Mining segment continues to exhibit significant growth potential, driven by increasing demand for its products and solutions, alongside expanding opportunities in global markets. This sustained momentum highlights the segment’s capacity to capitalise on market trends and further strengthen its competitive position in its operating markets. In line with our purpose of 'Innovating to enhance life, together creating a greener future,' we continue to demonstrate our environmental stewardship through a strong commitment to minimising the impact on natural resources and ensuring a healthier environment for future generations. We reduced our CO₂ intensity by 17% through our efficient EnviNOx® systems, which was further supported by our ongoing utilisation of solar energy and a decrease in energy consumption. Safety remains a top priority, with our Group-wide Recordable Case Rate improving to 0.09. We are proud of our financial performance and sustainability outcomes, which are testament to the daily invaluable contribution of our employees,  guided by our values and purpose, on our journey to building a sustainable and globally competitive business.
