MultiChoice said resilient revenue growth, strong cost control, shifts in content costs and new ways of working as a consequence of coronavirus allowed the business to offset challenges.

According to MultiChoice, trading profit and core headline earnings per share (HEPS) are the two most appropriate measures of operating performance, as they adjust for non-recurring and non-operational items.
