Mustek, a technology distributor, expects headline earnings per share to surge 250-270% for the six months ending December 2025, driven by reduced finance costs and favorable exchange rates. The strong performance comes amid an ongoing regulatory dispute over Novus Holdings' takeover bid, with the Takeover Regulation Panel ordering Novus to increase its offer from R13 to R15.41 per share after finding evidence of coordinated share accumulation. Novus has appealed the ruling, and the acquisition remains stalled despite competition authority approvals.
