Trematon Capital Investments Limited is an investment holding company. It describes its approach as investing in assets and businesses that management believes are undervalued, or where management can create value capable of meeting the group’s targeted internal rate of return. The portfolio has been concentrated in private education, leisure property and property finance. A shareholder circular dated 3 September 2026 describes the company’s investments as an effective 87% interest in the Generation Schools private-education business (Generation Education (Pty) Ltd), a 40% interest in ASK Partners (a United Kingdom property-finance company), the wholly owned RESI Investment Group (residential property, being realised), and the wholly owned Club Mykonos Langebaan holiday resort at Langebaan, Western Cape, which is subject to a pending disposal.
The company’s ordinary shares are listed in the General Segment of the Main Board of the Johannesburg Stock Exchange under share code TMT (ISIN ZAE000013991), and 222,710,698 ordinary shares of R0.01 each were in issue in 2026. For the audited financial year ended 31 August 2025 the consolidated group reported net asset value of 143.4 cents per share, net tangible asset value of 133.5 cents per share, a loss of 41.0 cents per share and a headline loss of 28.1 cents per share (the before column of the pro forma table in the 3 September 2026 circular). In its interim results for the six months ended 28 February 2025 the company reported net asset value of 288 cents per share and intrinsic net asset value of 344 cents per share, and declared an interim dividend of 110 cents per share. A trading statement dated 25 May 2026 guided net asset value of 125 to 129 cents and intrinsic net asset value of 145 to 155 cents per share for the six months ended 28 February 2026, the year-on-year decline largely reflecting 133 cents per share of distributions paid to shareholders.

Officers
5
Shareholder circulars dated 4 May 2026 and 3 September 2026 list an eight-member board. There are three independent non-executive directors: R Lockhart-Ross (Chairperson), J P Fisher and M A Sessions; two non-executive directors: R Stumpf and K Getz; and three executive directors: A J Shapiro (Chief Executive Officer), A L Winkler (Chief Financial Officer) and A Groll. J J Vos is the Company Secretary. Both circulars state that no directors resigned in the 18 months before their respective last practicable dates, so no board changes are recorded for the period from roughly late 2024 to mid-2026. The company did not publish individual appointment dates in these filings. CIPC does not publish directors’ nationalities, so none is stated here. The CIPC registry extract synced on 11 August 2026 shows five active officers and appends professional qualifications such as B.Com, CA(SA) and BBusSci to surnames; these are designations rather than parts of the individuals’ names, and the extract labels the officers as active and executive without reflecting the non-executive roles set out in the circulars.
Data availability: the CIPC record for this company omits appointment and resignation dates and nationality; role and board-composition detail here is taken from the company’s Johannesburg Stock Exchange circulars.
