On November 8, 2018, Net 1 UEPS announced that it will restate its financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2018 due to an accounting error concerning its investment in Cell C Proprietary Ltd. The same day, the Company lowered its guidance for fiscal year 2019 to $0.65 fundamental EPS from prior guidance of $1.05. The reduced guidance was reportedly due to "lower than previously expected EPE [EasyPay Everywhere] base as of September, as well as the resulting impact on [the] financial inclusion businesses, together with lower volumes and higher restructuring costs at IPG [International Payments Group]."

On this news, Net 1 UEPS's share price fell $2.16 per share, or over 30%, to close at $4.84 per share on November 9, 2018, on unusually heavy trading volume.
