Business
Sebata Holdings Limited provides tailor-made enterprise management, water management and ICT solutions as well as accounting and professional services primarily to municipalities, public entities, provincial government and the private sector in South Africa. The company operates through three main investment divisions offering Water Management Solutions including electronic water control and Standard Transfer Specification approved prepayment devices from Inzalo Utility Systems, plastic water meters, ball valves and meter boxes from Inzalo Amanzi Meters; Software Solutions such as public-sector accounting package PROMUN from R-Data, STS2 prepaid vending systems from UtiliPay, fresh produce market computerisation from Agrichain through Freshmark, integrated enterprise management systems from Inzalo Enterprise Management Systems; and Consultancy Services encompassing revenue enhancement and protection from Inzalo Utility Management Services, multidisciplinary professional services from MICROmega Accounting and Professional Services which is an accredited training office for SAIPA, CIMA and SAICA. Founded in 1998 and headquartered at The Lodge, Hunts End, 38 and 42 Wierda Road, Wierda Valley, Sandton, South Africa, the company, formerly known as MICROmega Holdings Limited until its name change in November 2018, is listed on the main board of the Johannesburg Stock Exchange under ticker SEB.JO and counts Laird Investments (Pty) Ltd as a major shareholder. In a significant recent development, Sebata terminated the sale of share agreements for its Water Group and Software Group originally concluded in 2020 with Inzalo Capital Holdings (Pty) Ltd effective 1 July 2024, regaining full ownership and control of these entities to address empowerment challenges and bolster operational sustainability; the group also underwent extensive restructuring during the 2024 financial year to rebalance resources amid demanding trading conditions for local authorities, appointed Dylan Strydom and Ruan Viljoen as executive directors and Chief Investment Officers for software and water technology units respectively in May 2024, and saw changes including the resignation of Siphwe Nodwele in August 2023 and Pierre van Eeden in January 2024 with Pierre Duvenhage assuming the Audit Committee chair. Previously, the company divested non-core assets such as the Nosa Group testing, inspection and certification services in April 2018 and entities like Turrito Networks and Nerdworks to Growth Capital Partners Proprietary Limited.
