Despite the extended period of tough trading conditions, we are pleased to report that each of the group's 12 businesses continue
to be profitable based on sound underlying business strategies and skilled management teams.
However, relentlessly waning demand and contracting markets have inevitably impacted margin and volume pressure, which negatively
affected the group's results for the half-year.
Dividend
After careful consideration, the board has decided not to declare an interim dividend (Interim gross dividend 2019: 6 cents per share)
as the group wishes to preserve its cash resources given capital commitments relating to Umlaas Road Phase 3, prevailing uncertain
market conditions, and the need to expand and grow the business should the opportunities arise.
Prospects
Our strategy remains unaltered. We will continue to focus on extracting maximum efficiencies from existing businesses in order
to protect and grow their individual market shares in their respective niche markets. The executive management team maintains
full confidence in our experienced and stable business management teams with their proven entrepreneurial and commerce skills,
and fully expects them to continue guiding our businesses to ongoing growth despite the prevailing economic landscape. Our tested
business models have ensured that each group business is well-equipped to both withstand economic headwinds and to exploit
emerging opportunities.
OneLogix will continue to be mindful of start-up and acquisitive opportunities and assess these appropriately. Our strong financial
position, supported by a credible Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment accreditation and commitment, provide an ideal springboard
for the pursuit of growth.
