BASIS OF PREPARATION
The board of directors of Visual (“the Board”) presents the unaudited condensed consolidated
interim results for the six months ended 31 August 2018. The results have been prepared in
accordance with the requirements of the South African Companies Act, 71 of 2008, as
amended, the JSE Listings Requirements, as well as the framework concepts and the
recognition and measurement principles of International Financial Reporting Standards
(“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, including IAS 34 Interim
Financial Reporting. The accounting policies used in preparation of the interim results are in
terms of IFRS and are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the annual financial
statements of the Group for the year ended 28 February 2018.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were compiled by Mr E Marais
CA(SA), and were not reviewed or audited by Visual’s external auditor, BDO Cape
Incorporated. These interim results 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. Any reference to
future financial performance included in this announcement, has not been reviewed or
reported on by the Company’s auditor.

NATURE OF BUSINESS
Visual International Holdings Limited (“Visual” or “the Company” or “the Group”) is
essentially a property developer that acquires land, rezones the land, installs the relevant
services and then constructs houses and apartments on the land for sale to homeowners
or investors. Visual focuses on the development of entire suburbs which comprise houses,
apartments, lifestyle and retirement accommodation, retail facilities, schools, offices, and
recreation as well as other related facilities. With this focus, Visual is able to ensure the
overall quality and integrity of the suburb. It enables Visual to supply quality residences
and other facilities at affordable prices. Furthermore, providing these combinations in a
single suburb leads to job creation, which is important to the owners and occupants. To
date, close to 500 homes and apartments have been developed by Visual at Stellendale.

FINANCIAL RESULTS COMMENTARY
Visual reports that the performance of the Group improved compared to the prior period with
operating and interest costs being contained whilst the Group finalises its repositioning of the
business.

During 2015 and 2016 the Company had been negatively impacted by the impact of the
delay in the commencement of the further development of Stellendale due to a number of
constraints, including the delay in listing, the Company raising less capital than desired on
listing and also the banking sector contracting its lending to property developers and potential
home owners in the middle-income segment. Furthermore, the Company had incurred very
expensive debt, which was causing additional difficulties for the Group. This led to the
Company adopting a strategy during the year ended 28 February 2017 to reduce gearing and
developing strategic initiatives in order to ensure the protection of Visual’s assets base. Many
of these objectives have been achieved during the year ended 28 February 2017 and
28 February 2018.
While almost no turnover was reported during 2018, due to no units being developed or
properties sold, the Group’s primary focus was to decrease operating costs, position itself for
future growth and to secure a strategic funding partner.

Revenue declined from the prior period as there were no further land sales and the subscription
agreement relating to Mosegedi and Associates and related management fees has been
cancelled.

Operating expenses were substantially reduced during the period under review, resulting in a
reduction of almost R300 000 per month at 31 August 2018 compared to 31 August 2017.

Other income decreased by R230 000 compared to the prior comparative period due to a
reduction in the loan receivable from RAL Trust following a partial offset against a loan payable
to CKR Investment Trust.

Interest expense reduced substantially due to lower levels of gearing, other than loans from
related parties and the partial off-set of loans mentioned above.

Investment properties and property held as inventories remained constant with the prior year.

Other financial liabilities increased substantially due to a loan from Chynge Finance Proprietary
Limited (“Chynge Finance”) announced on SENS on 31 July 2018. The Company entered into
a loan agreement with Chynge Finance in terms of which Chynge Finance has extended a
loan to the Company in the amount of R3 million, which loan agreement incorporated an
option to subscribe for shares in the future. This loan will be repayable on 6 January 2020. It is
anticipated that the parties will agree by way of an addendum that the option will be
cancelled, failing which shareholder approval may be required to approve the option.

Trade and other payables increased substantially due to following:

Cancellation of Milost Funding on Claw Back Offer Agreements
As announced on 15 September 2017, Visual signed a funding agreement with Milost for
R500 million draw down facility. Funds in respect of the first two drawdown notices for
R1.5 million and R2 million, respectively, had been received and were applied to working
capital. On 19 February 2018, Visual announced the signing of a clawback offer with Milost
relating to a subscription for 252 673 771 new shares in Visual at a subscription price of 11.81
cents per share in order to raise R29 840 772, against which Milost did not perform, citing
concerns around the drop in Visual’s share price. On 8 May 2018 the Company announced
new terms agreed to between the Company and Milost relating to a subscription for
310 000 000 new shares in Visual at a subscription price of 3.3 cents in order to raise R10 230 000
(“the Claw Back Subscription”) by way of a Claw Back Offer. The proceeds would have
supported the recapitalisation of Visual and provide working and development capital for the
business. However, Milost again failed to pay the Claw Back Subscription by the due date and
subsequently advised the Company that it had taken a decision to no longer invest in public
companies. It was discovered that the cited drop in share price was actually partly as a result
of Milost selling the previously acquired shares in the market.

Cancellation of Phase 1 of the Mosegedi Acquisition
As announced on SENS on 24 October 2017, Visual and the major shareholders of Mosegedi
had agreed not to proceed with Phase 2 of the acquisition of 18.9% of Mosegedi due to the
audit of the Mosegedi financial statements still being incomplete at the time as a result of
difficulties with the year ended 29 February 2016 (which had a knock-on effect into the year
ended 28 February 2017).
The parties had subsequently also entered into an agreement to unwind the acquisition of
31.2% of Mosegedi ab initio, although this was subject to the payment by Milost by the end of
May 2018 in terms of the Milost Claw Back Offer. It is still the intention of the parties to effect
the cancellation of Phase 1 of the Mosegedi Acquisition. This will result in the parties being put
back into the same position as had they not entered into the agreement. A further
announcement in respect of the confirmation of the implementation of the Mosegedi
cancellation agreement will be announced as soon as is practicable. The Group annual
financial statements have been prepared on the basis that Phase 1 of the Mosegedi
Acquisition will be unwound.

Agreement with the Stellendale Home Owners Association
During September 2018 the Group reached an agreement with the Stellendale Master Home
Owners Association (“SMHOA”) whereby the Group acknowledges that the water recoveries
amounting to R722 189 included other income that was not transferred to SMHOA after it was
received. The agreement that the Group would transfer these funds to SMHOA as soon as
possible after the subscription agreements as mentioned in the going concern note below has
been finalised. The Group has provided for this commitment in the period under review and
the amount of R722 189 is included under trade and other payables.

SEGMENTAL REPORTING
The segmental information is set out below.

The composition and measurement of reportable segments is consistent with the previous
period.

Geographic information
The Group's revenue is derived from operations and property holdings in South Africa.

Segment revenue and expenses
Revenue and expenses that are directly attributable to segments are allocated to those
segments. Those that are not directly attributable to segments are allocated on a reasonable
basis. Interest income on loans to shareholders are included in the property development
segment as the recoverability of the loans to shareholders are based on the fair value of the
shareholders underlying assets which included property held for development. Interest
expenses on loans from shareholders and other related party loans are not directly or indirectly
related to specific segments and income tax is not included in the results of the segments when
reviewed by the CEO.

Segment assets and liabilities
Segment assets and liabilities comprise those operating assets and liabilities that are directly
attributable to the segment or can be allocated to the segment on a reasonable basis.

Segment assets include loans to shareholders and these are allocated to the property
development segment as the recoverability of the loans to shareholders are based on the fair
value of the shareholders underlying assets which included property held for
development.

Segment assets exclude other financial assets, deferred tax assets, tax assets, bank balances,
deposits and cash.

Segment liabilities exclude certain loans from shareholders, bank overdraft and current and
deferred tax liabilities.

Capital expenditure represents the local costs incurred during the period to acquire segment
assets that are expected to be used during more than one period, namely, property, plant
and equipment, investment property. During the financial year under review the capital
expenditure amounted to R70 164 (2018: R69 899) and was attributable to the property, plant
and equipment in the property services segment.
The Group currently has three reportable segments, as described below, which are the Group's
strategic business units. The strategic business units offer different services and are reviewed
by management. For each of the strategic business units, the Group's CEO reviews internal
management reports on at least a monthly basis.

The following summary describes the operations of each of the Group's reportable segments
for the period ended 31 August 2018 and 31 August 2017:

-    Property Services segment - Rendering of management, administration and consulting
     services on development projects;
-    Property Investment segment - Letting of residential properties held by the Group;
     and
-    Property Development segment – Development of residential properties held by the Group or
     sold to third parties.

The classification of revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities in each segment is based on the
main activity of each segment.

No consulting fees were generated in the reporting period. Revenue from rentals amounted
to R15 885 (August 2017: R15 885), arising from services rendered by the Property Investment
segment.

DIVIDENDS

LITIGATION
There are no legal or arbitration proceedings, including any proceedings that are pending or

the last 12 months, a material effect on the Company’s or the Group’s financial position.

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
At the reporting date the Group does not have any contingent liabilities (2017: RNil).

COMMITMENTS
The Group had entered into an agreement in terms of which it is required to purchase a
property, consisting of Erf 18362 from the RAL Trust, subject to the successful rezoning of
Erf 18362 from agricultural to general. The purchase price will be equal to the fair value of Erf
18362 on the date that it is rezoned and will be used to settle all or part of the loan receivable
from the RAL Trust, to the extent of the fair value after rezoning.

The Group has also entered into an agreement in terms of which it may purchase a property,
consisting of the Remaining portion of Portion 4 of Farm 438, for a total consideration of
R3 831 100. It is anticipated that the fair value of the said property will exceed the amount of
the consideration payable. If this property is acquired, it is currently the Group’s intention that
the property will be used in the property development business of the Group.

GOING CONCERN AND EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD
As noted above, the interim results 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 the settlement of liabilities, contingent
obligations and commitments will occur in the ordinary course of business.

The Group’s cash flow constraints previously reported remain due to delays in being able to
generate revenue from property development and sales. However, the situation has
improved from the prior year and will continue to improve due to the various agreements or
negotiations referred to below.

The Group interim results 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 the settlement of liabilities, contingent
obligations and commitments will occur in the ordinary course of business.

The Group’s cash flow constraints as previously reported remain due to delays in being able
to generate revenue from property development and sales, and also partly due to the nature
of the business, which it previously addressed by borrowing from a lending institution at higher
interest rates. This led to the board taking action during 2016 and 2017 to actively reduce the
gearing of the business and the repayment of the lending institution, as well as other funders,
during the prior year under review. Accordingly, the situation has improved substantially from
the prior year.

The directors have considered the operational budget and cash flow forecasts for the ensuing
year which are based on the current expected economic and market conditions and the
following events or subsequent events taking place:

a)    On 7 September 2018 the Company published an announcement regarding the specific
      issue of 151 515 152 shares for cash to each of Robco Holdings Proprietary Limited
      (“Robco”) and TLP Investments One Five Four Proprietary Limited (“TLP Investments”), or
      their nominees, at an issue price of 3.3 cents per share for a total aggregate
      consideration of R10 million. As announced on 28 November 2018, the subscription
      agreements, which had still been subject to a number of suspensive conditions, between
      the Company and these parties have lapsed. However, the Board continues to evaluate
      the various scenarios with regards to the negotiations with a number of parties regarding
      an equity investment into Visual (“Potential Equity Investment”).

b)    As announced on SENS on 28 December 2018, Visual International has agreed terms for
      the disposal of land with Makoro Property Developers Proprietary Limited (“Makoro”) in
      terms of which Visual International will dispose of the property described as Erf 25312 Kuils
      River, situated in the registration division of Stellenbosch in extent of approximately 2.7
      hectares (“Stellendale Junction”) for a consideration of R10 million, plus VAT (if
      applicable) (“Stellendale Junction Disposal Agreement”). Zoning rights are in place for
      this property.

      Visual will undertake the development management work in respect of the Stellendale
      Junction project for Makoro in terms of a property development management
      agreement (“Property Development Management Agreement”).

      In the interim, Makoro has concluded a loan agreement with the Company, Visual
      International and My Place Trust in terms of which it has lent the Company an amount of
      R2 million, which amount will incur interest at 3% above the prime rate charged by ABSA
      Bank and is repayable on or before 31 January 2020.

      The development potential in respect of the Stellendale Junction land is approximately
      500 apartments on the site. The sale and development of these apartment buildings will
      bring revenue and additional cash flow to the Group. Makoro will be responsible for
      securing the development funding for Stellendale Junction.
c)    With the restructuring and de-gearing exercise essentially complete, Visual has been
      actively seeking development funding or Potential Equity Investment partners in order to
      continue with the development of Stellendale.

      As the Potential Equity Investment, the Stellendale Junction Disposal Agreement and the
      Property Development Management Agreement still remain subject to final agreement
      and/or certain conditions precedent at the date of issue of these results, these events
      and the underlying assumptions relating thereto still represent material uncertainties that
      may cast doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. The directors
      believe that due to the conclusion of the agreements or agreement of terms referred to
      in a) and c) above, the Company will have adequate financial resources to continue as
      a going concern. Accordingly, the directors have adopted the going concern basis in
      the preparation of the annual financial statements.

It is noted that the Group has more than R22 million in tangible net asset value, which has been
supported by the independent property valuations in the prior year.

Changes to the Board
As announced previously:
-   Mr Leon Rauch resigned as Financial Director of Visual with effect from 31 May 2018.
-   The role of Mr Reuben Kadalie changed from independent non-executive director and
    member of the Audit and Risk Committee to Interim Financial Director with effect from
    20 February 2019.
-   Dr Ruben Richards was appointed as a member of the Audit and Risk Committee with
    effect from 20 February 2019.

The Company will appoint a new permanent Financial Director towards the end of this year,
as operations and activities increase.

Going forward, the Board will be considering the size and nature of properties held by the
Group in order to start its key development initiatives and ensure that it has sufficient cash and
funding resources to grow the Group’s property assets.
