RESILIENT REIT LIMITED - Changes to the board of directors
What this filing means
Resilient REIT has appointed two highly experienced independent non-executive directors, Terence Nombembe and Mary Bomela, in a routine governance enhancement.
The company is adding two new independent directors to its board to help with oversight and strategy. This is a normal administrative update and doesn't change the company's daily operations or financial outlook.
Bull case
- The appointment of former Auditor-General Terence Nombembe enhances the board's financial oversight and governance credentials.
- The addition of Mary Bomela brings extensive executive and strategic leadership experience to the board.
- Regulatory and compliance requirements have been met, with fit and proper assessments successfully completed for both directors.
Bear case
- The board appointments are routine administrative changes that do not alter the company's immediate operational outlook.
- The new directors inherit a challenging market environment, as reflected by the stock's significant divergence between trailing and forward earnings multiples.
- The governance enhancement is unlikely to offset the recent negative price momentum and selling pressure observed over the last 30 days.

Evidence from the filing
The appointment of Terence Nombembe significantly enhances the board's financial oversight and governance expertise.
“Terence Nombembe (CA(SA)) was the Auditor-General of South Africa from 2006 to 2013 whereafter he assumed the role of chief executive officer of the South African Institute of Chartered Accountants from 2014 to 2019. He is an independent non-executive director of Sibanye Stillwater Limited and Nedbank Group Limited, where he chairs both the audit and risk committees”

She was the chief executive officer of Mineworkers Investment Company (RF) (Pty) Ltd from 2012 to 2025.

“The Board confirms that the appointments were made pursuant to the policy dealing with the nomination of directors and that fit and proper assessments for each of Terence Nombembe and Mary Bomela have been undertaken and the Board is satisfied with the outcome of the assessments.”
