The verdict· graded 01 Sept
Eskom announced a profit on 2026-08-31, reporting a second consecutive profitable year with profit after tax of R30.3 billion.
The claim named a specific date, 2026-09-02, but the profit announcement happened two days earlier on 2026-08-31. Because the timing is part of the prediction, this is not a match even though the profit itself did occur.
