But, the successful unbundling of WeBuyCars which listed on the JSE in April has helped the group. It allowed it return over 5-billion rand to shareholders and raise a-billion more to pay down its debt.

The company notes that its taxi business remains a major challenge. But, it says it has proposed a detailed business plan to restructure the SA Taxi balance sheet. It's hoped this will significantly reduce losses on the current loan book.  

The company's CEO, Jonathan Jawno spoke to eNCA's Dan Moyane about their numbers.
