GUQULA
Its the Zulu word for ‘change’
And we have found a way to
• Return 25%+ IRR to investors
• Rewild, regreen & boost biodiversity
• Massively uplift local communities on the edge of our
nature reserves – all at the same time
That’s Guqula……
We use the power of latency to fund these changes.
• Driving Income statement value
by using our network and experience to buy and optimise nodes of cash positive
boutique tourism assets , and by using aggregation to reduce costs and increase
revenues – driving ebitda margins from 25% to 41%
• Driving Balance sheet value
The ownership of big 5 land is fragmented and supply is limited by human
encroachment, while global demand for big 5 tourism is booming. Aggregating Big 5
properties with plains game land creates massive revaluation profits
• Mitigating Risk
• Revenue is Dollar based, while most costs are Rand based
• 95% of funds are invested in hard assets which appreciate over time
• Massive community upliftment aligns communities’ interests with the investor’s

Q & A
Q: What problem are you solving?
A 1: Lodge ownership in Africa is highly fractured, stifling their ability to create economies of scale, our solution enables
economies of scale and significantly boosts EBITDA using 6 different levers
A2: Big 5 land in Africa is an becoming increasingly scarce (Human encroachment), the supply shortage has created a 12 %
increase in big 5 land values over the past 20 years. We have a solution to take advantage of this.
Q: What is happening to demand like for Big 5 tourism globally?
A: The supply shortage of big 5 assets, coupled with the fact that globally the middle class is growing at 58 million people
per year has historically seen both bed night prices and occupancies surge over the last 20 years. We expect this trend to
gather pace into the future. Pricing and occupancies in our lodges are already approaching pre pandemic levels. As prices
and occupancies grow, we will also add capacity to cope with the demand.
Q: Competitors?
A1: Singita, Wilderness Safaries, & And Beyond. Our point of difference is that they all employ a decentralised lodge
strategy limiting their ability to create economies of scale; 36 lodges – 36 GMs – 36 kitchens etc . We buy our existing HIGH
cash generative lodges in small geographies (a node) and then we aggregate cost and revenue 36 lodges – 10 GMs – 20
kitchens etc. We do this without hindering the charm and allure of the boutique destinations. Our baked in profitability
advantage allows us to grow faster than our competitors and to produce considerably higher IRRs
10/3/2022 13
Q & A
Q: Competitors?
A2: We also have a land strategy that differentiates us: Competitors tend to buy into established reserves or lease. Our land
strategy, based on the data and the land classification model sees us buy land on the edge of reserves, rewild, bring down
the fences and take advantage of significant land revaluations that emerge from land being reclassified as big 5, and then
revalued again as the land gains value with high class lodges being marketed over time.
Both our Land and Lodge strategies yield higher ebitda results than our competitors. This allows us to grow faster and more
profitably and so to uplift communities at a greater rate and provide superior returns to investors
Q: Risks?
A1: Communities on the edge of these reserves are either your greatest allies or your greatest enemies, our inclusive
solutions see including these communities as equity owners, suppliers of many items to the lodge supply chains, and
training their people filling crucial positions in the Big 5 tourism economy. By aligning our incentives with theirs we
fundamentally reduce risk.
At the same time we mitigate climate and biodiversity risk by committing thousands of hectares to become permanent
reserves, take these reserves off the grid and provide a home to rare flora and fauna. We have found a way to create an
environmentally kinder, less risky future and to boost returns for our investors and our communities in a shared endeavour.
A2: Political interference; Governments in Africa are compliant as long as there is direct benefit to their constituents. In the
South African government and its provinces that are home to our lodges we have long standing and deep relationships with
government stakeholders. We see them as enablers and potentially reputational beneficiaries. This new way of creating
inclusive growth in the tourism market is something they have long spoken of without having a solution. We will be
maximizing media coverage to show the project – and its supporters off and in a good light.
10/3/2022 14
Q & A
Q: Vision for the Future?
A: The idea of aggregating boutique hotels in small geographic areas is a novel one in the African tourism industry. Its also a
concept that provides both competitive advantage and through that, an ability to grow faster than competitors, growing
market shares and superior returns for investors.
We believe that this is a strategy that can be replicated the world over. The Caribbean for example exhibits the same
opportunities as does the Safari industry in South Africa. We intend to build and develop the IP in this geographic region,
and once we are happy with where we are, we see Africa as our next target and then the rest of the world.
We have an ambitious team.

  • 12. 10/3/2022 12 Q & A Q: What problem are you solving? A 1: Lodge ownership in Africa is highly fractured, stifling their ability to create economies of scale, our solution enables economies of scale and significantly boosts EBITDA using 6 different levers A2: Big 5 land in Africa is an becoming increasingly scarce (Human encroachment), the supply shortage has created a 12 % increase in big 5 land values over the past 20 years. We have a solution to take advantage of this. Q: What is happening to demand like for Big 5 tourism globally? A: The supply shortage of big 5 assets, coupled with the fact that globally the middle class is growing at 58 million people per year has historically seen both bed night prices and occupancies surge over the last 20 years. We expect this trend to gather pace into the future. Pricing and occupancies in our lodges are already approaching pre pandemic levels. As prices and occupancies grow, we will also add capacity to cope with the demand. Q: Competitors? A1: Singita, Wilderness Safaries, & And Beyond. Our point of difference is that they all employ a decentralised lodge strategy limiting their ability to create economies of scale; 36 lodges – 36 GMs – 36 kitchens etc . We buy our existing HIGH cash generative lodges in small geographies (a node) and then we aggregate cost and revenue 36 lodges – 10 GMs – 20 kitchens etc. We do this without hindering the charm and allure of the boutique destinations. Our baked in profitability advantage allows us to grow faster than our competitors and to produce considerably higher IRRs
  • 13. 10/3/2022 13 Q & A Q: Competitors? A2: We also have a land strategy that differentiates us: Competitors tend to buy into established reserves or lease. Our land strategy, based on the data and the land classification model sees us buy land on the edge of reserves, rewild, bring down the fences and take advantage of significant land revaluations that emerge from land being reclassified as big 5, and then revalued again as the land gains value with high class lodges being marketed over time. Both our Land and Lodge strategies yield higher ebitda results than our competitors. This allows us to grow faster and more profitably and so to uplift communities at a greater rate and provide superior returns to investors Q: Risks? A1: Communities on the edge of these reserves are either your greatest allies or your greatest enemies, our inclusive solutions see including these communities as equity owners, suppliers of many items to the lodge supply chains, and training their people filling crucial positions in the Big 5 tourism economy. By aligning our incentives with theirs we fundamentally reduce risk. At the same time we mitigate climate and biodiversity risk by committing thousands of hectares to become permanent reserves, take these reserves off the grid and provide a home to rare flora and fauna. We have found a way to create an environmentally kinder, less risky future and to boost returns for our investors and our communities in a shared endeavour. A2: Political interference; Governments in Africa are compliant as long as there is direct benefit to their constituents. In the South African government and its provinces that are home to our lodges we have long standing and deep relationships with government stakeholders. We see them as enablers and potentially reputational beneficiaries. This new way of creating inclusive growth in the tourism market is something they have long spoken of without having a solution. We will be maximizing media coverage to show the project – and its supporters off and in a good light.
  • 14. 10/3/2022 14 Q & A Q: Vision for the Future? A: The idea of aggregating boutique hotels in small geographic areas is a novel one in the African tourism industry. Its also a concept that provides both competitive advantage and through that, an ability to grow faster than competitors, growing market shares and superior returns for investors. We believe that this is a strategy that can be replicated the world over. The Caribbean for example exhibits the same opportunities as does the Safari industry in South Africa. We intend to build and develop the IP in this geographic region, and once we are happy with where we are, we see Africa as our next target and then the rest of the world. We have an ambitious team.
