SEGMENTAL REPORTING

IFRS 8 requires an entity to report financial and descriptive information about its reportable
segments, which are operating segments or aggregations of operating segments that meet
specific criteria. Operating segments are components of an entity about which separate
financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision
maker.

Therefore, the group determines and presents its operating segments based on the
information that is internally provided to the Chief Executive Officer, who is the chief
operating decision maker.

Furthermore, a segment is a distinguishable component of the group that is engaged either
in providing related products or services (business segment), in providing products or
services within a particular economic environment (geographical segment), which is subject
to risks and returns that are different from those of the other segments.

The group does not have different operating segments. The business is conducted in South
Africa and is managed at a central head office with no branches. The group is managed as
one operating unit.

All revenues from external customers originate in South Africa.

The Standard on Segment reporting will not be implemented as Imbalie Beauty has only one
segment.

OVERVIEW

The directors of Imbalie Beauty herewith present the audited annual financial results for the
year ended 28 February 2013 (“the 2013 year” or “2013”). Imbalie Beauty is a franchisor,
distributor and service provider of beauty offerings and products. Imbalie Beauty has both its
own distribution footprint and a franchised distribution footprint which together total 153
beauty salons nationally. In addition, Imbalie Beauty’s products are distributed through other
large retailers, independent salons and pharmacies.

The group experienced trading conditions during the latter part of the 2013 financial year that
were more difficult than expected, mainly due to a slow-down in consumer spending (not
only confined to South Africa but also part of a worldwide trend). During 2013, the group
focused on the integration of the Perfect 10 chain, which was acquired with effect from 1
March 2012. The Perfect 10 chain has since the acquisition grown from 55 to 62 studios
nationally.

The announcement of the acquisition of Perfect 10 was made simultaneous to Imbalie
Beauty launching its new corporate name and brand, namely “Imbalie Beauty”. The word
“Imbalie” is derived from the Zulu word for flower. This is appropriately symbolic of the
group’s holistic and comprehensive beauty offering which encompasses skincare, nail care,
hair care and various other beauty products and services.

The group will continue to be a multiple brand owner, owning Placecol Skin Care Clinics,
Dream Nails Beauty salons, Perfect 10 studios and Worldé of Beauté salons.

The 2013 was a year of both consolidation and building on the solid foundations laid after
the acquisition of the Perfect 10 franchise chain. To assist the group in fulfilling one of its
goals, which is to provide great support to its underlying salons, the group embarked upon
“Project Facelift” and has to date renovated 31 of its own and franchised beauty salons. The
major objectives of “Project Facelift” are:

-   to rebrand Placecol Beauty Centres to Placecol Skin Care Clinics, with the
    introduction of Hair Removal and Skin Rejuvenation technology into the
    Placecol Skin Care Clinics;
-   rebranding of the DNB salons to Dream Nails Beauty salons;
-   to improve the trading densities of existing salons; and
-   to improve the retail offerings in salons.

The Imbalie Beauty Training Academy was strengthened during 2013 with the offering of
induction courses to new franchisees, business training to existing franchisees and beauty
and nail training to employees of franchisees. The group introduced a defined contribution
pension fund during the year for its employees and the employees of the franchisees.

As part of the Perfect 10 acquisition, the group embarked on a process to implement
standardised computer systems into all Perfect 10 salons. This was not fully implemented at
year end and the group will continue with the process during the current year.

The group experienced an increase in system-wide sales revenue (including gift cards) for
the 2013 year of 67% to R220 million (2012: R132 million) in respect of its Placecol Skin
Care Clinics, Dream Nails Beauty salons, Perfect 10 Nail & Body studios and Worldé of
Beauté salons, mainly due to the acquisition of the Perfect 10 franchise chain.

The group owned 16 corporate outlets at year-end. These outlets are included under
inventories as they are available for resale. Three of these corporate outlets were relocated
during 2013 to improve their profitability and chances of being sold to prospective franchise
owners. Management will continue to focus on selling these outlets to potential owner
operator franchisees.

FINANCIAL RESULTS

Group revenue increased by 15.5% to R71.5 million (2012: R61.9 million) during the year as
a result of increased marketing, the introduction of new brands, high technology skin
rejuvenation and hair removal machines and increased royalty income earned from the
Perfect 10 franchise chain acquired and existing outlets in the group. Gross profit increased
by 3.3% to R43.8 million (2012: R42.4 million) and gross profit margins decreased by 7.2%
to 61.3% (2012: 68.5%), due to the introduction of new brands and promotional offerings
distributed by the group to beauty salons, which attract lower margins.

Operating expenses increased by 4.9% to R40.2 million (2012: R38.4 million), however
marketing and advertising activities grew 30% compared to the previous period. The group
incurred once-off costs during the year mainly due to the change of name of the holding
company and the underlying subsidiaries and other costs associated with the acquisition of
the Perfect 10 franchise chain.

The definite highlights for the 2013 year were:
    - the integration of the Perfect 10 acquisition into the Imbalie Beauty group;
    - the increase in group revenue to 15.5%;
    - renovation and relocation of 31 outlets; and
    - positive cash flows generated from operating activities.

The performance of the company’s growth in earnings and headline earnings were flat when
compared to the previous year and earnings per share decreased to 0.57 cents (2012: 1.07
cents), however headline earnings per share decreased to 0.58 cents (2012: 1.07 cents).
The decline in earnings and headline earnings per share can be attributed primarily to the
increase in shares in issue as a result of the company issuing shares for cash at the
beginning of the 2013 financial year to fund the Perfect 10 acquisition.

Corporate outlets to the value of R7.5 million which are available for resale are included in
inventories. It will be a priority for management to sell these outlets to franchisees in order
to strengthen the cash flow of the group. During the year the group opened a Dream Nails
Beauty concept outlet in Jubilee Mall and relocated three of its corporate outlets in Port
Elizabeth, Welkom and Pretoria North to better locations, which led to the increase in
inventories on hand.

To fund the acquisition of Perfect 10 the company completed a general issue of shares for
cash whereby 109 375 000 ordinary shares were placed with a number of independent
public shareholders at a price of 16 cents per share raising R17.5 million (“the general issue
for cash”).

The company has also entered into a loan agreement, whereby the company secured a R5
million three year term loan at an interest cost of 8% per annum. The total amount of
R22.5 million raised was utilised to settle the Perfect 10 purchase consideration, repay other
long-term liabilities and to strengthen the company’s balance sheet.

The material increase in intangible assets relates to the acquisition of Perfect 10, which
relate to trademarks and franchise agreements acquired by the group.

The group had no material capital commitments for the purchase of property, plant and
equipment as at 28 February 2013.
