Provisional Consolidated Reviewed Annual Financial Statements For The Year Ended 28 February 2018

AFRICAN DAWN CAPITAL LIMITED
(Incorporated in the Republic of South Africa)
(Registration number 1998/020520/06)
JSE code: ADW
ISIN: ZAE000060703
("the Company" or "the Group" or "Afdawn")

Provisional consolidated reviewed annual financial statements for the year ended 28 February 2018

The financial year was impacted by the following key events
 -    Cancellation of the Dzothe transaction after failure by the counterparty to remedy a payment breach 
 -    Transfer of the Greenoaks property (part of discontinued operations)
 -    Restructure of Knife Capital and its subsequent disposal (part of discontinued operations)
 -    Conclusion of a settlement agreement with SARS
 -    Disposal of Grindstone (part of discontinued operations)

Cancellation of the Dzothe transaction by Afdawn after failure by the counterparty to remedy a payment
breach had a major impact on the strategy of the Group. (The Dzothe transaction comprised the sale of
Elite Group, African Dawn Property Transfer Finance 1 and African Dawn Property Transfer Finance 2, for
R20 million). The proceeds of the Dzothe transaction had been earmarked for a SARS settlement and
because of the cancellation, a settlement with SARS started to look unlikely. Elite Group needed funding
and the vision for the Group to become a listed venture capital entity had to be abandoned.

A settlement agreement was concluded with SARS in December 2017. The agreement is for an amount of
R8,238 million to be paid over a period of 15 months. By 28 February 2018 the Group had paid R2,58 million
and the balance outstanding at February 2018 was R5,658 million. The amount currently outstanding is
R3,06 million. This amount is to be paid by end of February 2019. Honouring the settlement agreement with
SARS has been and remains, a key focus of management. The sooner the liability is settled the sooner the
group will be able to access capital markets for funding.

The inability to provide Elite Group with additional funding has impacted negatively on growth in advances.

Knife Capital Group was restructured to make it possible to dispose of the asset management business and 50% of
Grindstone in September 2017. The remaining 50% of Grindstone has also subsequently been sold.

After the transactions mentioned, the only trading operations in the Group are Elite and YueDiligence.

Results of continuing operations

Revenue decreased by R4,855 million to R17,409 million and operating expenses increased by R1,871 million
to R31,348 million after taking the following into consideration:
 -    Audit fees increased by R0,125 million
 -    Depreciation and amortisation increased by R0,170 million
 -    Legal fees increased by R0,276 million
 -    Management and consulting fees increased by R0,368 million
 -    Other costs increased by R0,905 million
 -    Actual bad debts written off and movement in allowance increased by R4,530 million
 -    Rental decreased by R0,200 million
 -    Salaries and directors' emoluments decreased by R2,290 million

A gain of R11,809 million has been recognised following the conclusion of the settlement agreement with SARS.

Finance costs decreased by R1,446 million as liabilities were reduced.

The loss from continuing operations decreased from R7,314 million to R1,297 million

Discontinued operations
The following have been classified as discontinued operations:
 -    Greenoaks properties
 -    Knife Capital
 -    Grindstone

Group liabilities decreased by R31,849 million to R16,623 million mainly as a result to the successful SARS settlement agreement.

a copy of the auditor's reviewed together with the accompanying financial information from the company's registered office. 

Material uncertainties related to going concern
'Without qualifying their opinion, the auditors would like to draw attention to Note 1, Going concern judgement,
in this SENS announcement which indicates the existence of material uncertainties which may cast significant

These provisional condensed consolidated financial statements were compiled by Dylan Kohler, Professional Accountant (SA), 
under supervision from the financial Director, Graham Hope CA(SA).

Approval by the Board
The provisional condensed consolidated financial statements for the year ended 28 February 2018 (including comparatives)
were approved and authorised for issue by the board of directors on 29 June 2018.

Notes to the financial statements

1. Going concern judgement

The consolidated and separate financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting policies applicable to a
going concern. This basis presumes that funds will be available to finance future operations and that the realisation of 
assets and settlement of liabilities, contingent obligations and commitments will occur in the ordinary course of business.

The material uncertainties relating to events or conditions which may cast doubt upon the ability to continue as a going 
concern are outlined below.

This judgement is based on a careful consideration of the following:

-   Financial statements should be prepared on a going concern basis unless it
    is intended to liquidate the entity or to cease trading or there is no
    realistic alternative but to do so.
-   In considering whether the going concern assumption is
    appropriate, all available information is taken into account,
    including information about the foreseeable future.
-   Where there are material uncertainties relating to events or conditions
    which may cast doubt upon the ability to continue as a going concern,
    those uncertainties should be disclosed.

The material uncertainties relating to events or conditions which may cast doubt upon the ability to continue as a going
concern are outlined in the table below. The table also outlines the actions being taken to manage these uncertainties and
also the current status of these uncertainties and actions.

Goodwill impairment

Impairment test for goodwill

SME Snapshot  was acquired during the year for 15% share of equity in YueDiligence in return for the underlying asset and liabilities 
which were included at fair value, which gave rise to goodwill as below. The recoverable amount was based on fair value less 
cost to sell, which resulted in an impairment. 

Knife Capital was impaired at interim to the level that the Group would receive in terms of the Knife Disposal.

Goodwill on acquisition                                                                                       211          -
Cash effect of transaction                                                                                      -          -
Consideration at fair value (the acquisition was paid with 
18 new shares of R1 in an existing subsidiary creating share premium)                                         352          -

The goodwill has been recognised because of synergies that will arise from including SME Snapshot into the Group.
The contribution SME Snapshot would have contributed to the group if acquired on 1 March 2017 is insignificant as it 
is in start-up-phase of development.

creating share premium)                                                                                       352

17. Events after reporting period

Reversal of acquisition of SME Snapshot 

Shareholders are hereby advised that on 22 May 2018, the Company and YueDiligence entered into a further sale and 
settlement agreement with SME Snapshot, the Seller and Tyronne Clinton Nel, in terms of which the parties agree to 
unwind the Transaction through the disposal by the Seller of the YueDiligence Shares to YueDiligence and the disposal 
by YueDiligence of the SME Snapshot Equity to the Seller.

As a result of the Disposal, YueDiligence will not be required to develop and roll out the product offerings of 
SME Snapshot. The Disposal will enable YueDiligence to focus solely on the roll out of its interactive web-based Gap 
Analysis Tool as a product offering to entrepreneurs, funders and consultants to assist them to identify growth gaps 
and help create sustainable entities that will attract funding for growth. 

Capital Raising

A non-binding Letter of Intent has been signed with a party that is currently performing a due diligence to support 
either capital raising for Afdawn and/or secure funding for Elite or a combination of both. A cautionary statement 
in this regard was published on 25 June 2018. 

Material debtor 

Agreements incorporating the restructured arrangements have been concluded. The restructured arrangement significantly 
increases the likelihood of payment by the debtor in the next 12 months. 

18. Segment report

The segment information has been prepared in accordance with IFRS 8 - Operating Segments which defines the
requirements for the disclosure of financial information of an entity's operating segments. IFRS 8 requires
segmentation based on the group's internal organisation and reporting of revenue and operating income based upon
internal accounting methods.

The group discloses its operating segments according to the components regularly reviewed by the chief operating
decision-makers, being the executive directors. These amounts have been reconciled to the consolidated financial
statements. The measures reported by the group are in accordance with the accounting policies adopted for preparing
and presenting the consolidated financial statements. Segment revenue excludes value added taxation and includes
inter- segment revenue which is R0,192 million (2017: 1,515). Net revenue represents segment revenue from which
intersegment revenue has been eliminated. Sales between segments are made on a commercial basis. Segment
operating profit before capital items represents segment revenue less segment expenses. Segment expenses consist of
operating expenses. Depreciation, amortisation and impairments have been allocated to the segments to which they relate.

The segment assets comprise all assets of the different segments that are employed by the segment and that are either
directly attributable to the segment, or can be allocated to the segment on a reasonable basis.

The group's reportable segments are based on the following lines of business:

           a.  Investment advisory and investment management

This segment consists of the YueDiligence, Knife Capital and Grindstone. Knife Capital and Grindstone were sold
during the financial period, so transactions related to them are treated as discontinued operations. YueDiligence 
provides investment advisory and investment management services to entrepreneurial and innovative companies.

           b.  Micro finance

This segment consists of Elite and Elite Two. These companies are involved in micro finance in the unsecured lending
industry and have a wide base of customers (mostly individuals).

           c.  Rentals of properties in possession

This segment consists of a residential complex with 76 units (a mix of 2 and 3 bedrooms), that are rented out on annual
leases to individuals. The property was sold during the financial period so the segment is treated as discontinued.

           d.  Other

Other consists of the holding company together with other smaller entities not dealt with in other
segments. Segment information has been restated to comply with the segments identified above.

All the segments operate only in South Africa, largely in the Gauteng and Western Cape provinces therefore no
geographical information is provided. Similarly all non-current assets are in South Africa.
