31 December 2011 31 December 2010 (R`000) (R`000) 4. Business combinations On 1 May 2010, the group acquired a controlling interest in Kilken Platinum (Pty) Ltd ("Kilken") of 83.6% (previously 41.8%) through the combined holding of subsidiaries Abalengani Mining Investments (Pty) Ltd ("AMI") and JB Platinum Holdings (Pty) Ltd ("JBPH"). At acquisition, the previously held investment in associates was fairly valued, based on the competent persons` report. With effect from 1 September 2011 the group acquired a 100% controlling interest in Pro Roof Steel Merchants (Pty) Limited and its subsidiaries ("PRSM") through the issue of a maximum of 630 million and a minimum of 420 million Andulela ordinary shares as purchase consideration, at an issue price of 40 cents per share, based on the consolidated tangible net asset value ("NAV") of PRSM and its subsidiaries as at 31 August 2011. The remaining 11.58 million ordinary shares, still to be issued, are included as Vendor Shares in the Statement of Changes in Equity. The transaction costs incurred in the acquisition of PRSM amounted to R1.48 million. Had the results of PRSM been consolidated for the entire year it would have contributed R 1 021.2 million to Gross Revenue and a Net Loss of R14.1 million to the Consolidated Net Profit for the year ended 31 December 2011. The following table summarises the fair value of the consideration paid and the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, recognised at the acquisition dates of Kilken (2010) and PRSM (2011), as well as the fair value, at the acquisition date, of the non-controlling interest in Kilken.

(R`000) (R`000) 6. Segment reporting The strategic steering committee is the group`s chief operating decision-maker. Management has determined the operating segments based on the information reviewed by the strategic steering committee for the purposes of allocating resources and assessing performance. The strategic steering committee considers the business from a product perspective. The group has two sources of income namely, the production of Platinum Group Metals ("PGM") at the Kilken tailings treatment facility and the processing and distribution of steel products by PRSM.

Nature of the business The company is an investment holding company. Going concern The financial information has been prepared on the going concern basis. Directorate The current directors of the company at date of this report are as follows: Name Date of appointment M J Husain (Chairman)# Appointed as Chairman 26 February 2010 A Kaka (CEO) Appointed as CEO 26 February 2010 P C de Jager (CFO) Appointed as CFO 25 October 2010 G R Rosenthal # Appointed 26 February 2010 P E du Preez # Appointed 1 October 2011 I Kajee ** Appointed 1 October 2011 # Independent non-executive; ** Non-executive Commentary Introduction With reference to the announcements on SENS, the last of which was dated 2 September 2011, Andulela concluded the transaction to acquire the entire issued share capital of, and all claims against PRSM. As at 30 August 2011 all the suspensive conditions were fulfilled and the effective date of the transaction was consequently 1 September 2011, from which date PRSM is consolidated into the group results. The consolidated group results for the year ending 31 December 2011 resulted in attributable headline earnings rising to R24.9 million from a loss of R15.0 million reported for the period ended 31 December 2010. This is solely attributable to Kilken`s performance and the continued improvements in PGM production recoveries coupled with stronger average PGM prices. This resulted in a profit after tax for Kilken of R46.6 million. Financial review In the current year preference share dividends on the cumulative redeemable preference shares due to the holder thereof (Newshelf 1005 (Pty) Limited), in the amount of R4.4 million were accrued and expensed as finance costs, in accordance with the rights attaching to the preference shares. R14.1 million was paid towards the arrear preference dividends owing. At the year-end the cumulative arrears amounted to R0.4 million unpaid which is included in current liabilities. The value of Kilken is recorded at fair value in terms of IFRS 3 for the purpose of recording the business combination of AMI, JBPH and Kilken. As a result of the business combination, the group continues to carry goodwill of R419 million in the financial statements of Andulela. In accordance with IFRS, management will continue to assess the fair value of the investment. Having regard to the improved production and PGM prices over the last year, management is confident of the improved fundamentals for the real value of the underlying investment in Kilken. The group realised an improved net asset value per share of 11.53 cents compared to 7.66 cents as reported for the period ended 31 December 2010. The production improvements at Kilken and stronger average PGM basket prices mentioned above was the main driver for the improved headline earnings per share of 0.61 cents compared to the headline loss per share of 7.48 cents for the 18 months ended 31 December 2010. Kilken Platinum Andulela owns an effective 83.6% stake in Kilken`s PGM tailings retreatment facility that delivers PGM concentrate to Rustenburg Platinum Mines (Pty) Limited ("RPM"). As reported in the interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2011, a proactive maintenance and refurbishment regime has been implemented to improve efficiency and plant availability. These initiatives are currently yielding positive returns. Kilken`s PGM production improved by 123% for the 12 months to December 2011 compared to the comparative 12-month period in 2010. More significantly, the 12 months to December 2011 when compared to the 18 months ended 31 December 2010 of the previous audited financial statements shows an improvement of 16%. This represents a marked improvement in constant production volumes with less unplanned stoppages. The introduction of Atomaer high shear reactors into the froth flotation process during 2010 has yielded improved production recoveries over time by an average of 30% as verified by an independent competent expert. Kilken continues to be a profitable and low-cost PGM producer which is a valuable cash-generative asset for the group and management remains optimistic about the continued positive growth outlook for the PGM market in the medium to long term. Kilken has been solely responsible for the profitability and overall improved results for the group. Pro Roof Steel Merchants PRSM is a steel processing, distribution and services group with a footprint of six branches throughout South Africa. It started as a roofing company in 1988, and has expanded its product range to the most commonly used steel products including: - welded beam line (universal columns/beams and T-beams); - roofing solutions (corrugated, inverted box rib, widespan); - fencing and wire products; - tubing and cold formed; - flat and long products; and - value added services (slitting, cut-to-length, blanking, de- and recoiling, guillotine, tube saw). The increase in plant and equipment, inventory, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables, other finance liabilities as well as the deferred tax liabilities are as a result of this acquisition. In line with management`s strategy to diversify the investment base of the group into growth markets, the investment in PRSM was identified as a suitable investment for the group. With reference to further announcements on SENS the last of which was dated 22 June 2011, Andulela or its nominee will acquire the entire steel processing and distribution business, including the assets and liabilities, of GIBB Steel (Pty) Limited ("GIBB Steel") indivisibly as a going concern, which will be merged with the PRSM processing and distribution business. The combined production throughputs are anticipated to yield lower costs per ton, thus positioning the steel processing division more competitively in its market segment. The increased production volumes will benefit from the economies of scale and the inherent savings from the merger in order to offer significant added value and a diversified risk profile for shareholders. The maximum transaction purchase consideration of R95 million will be based on the tangible net asset value ("TNAV") of GIBB Steel at the anticipated effective date, and will be settled by way of a maximum cash amount of R35 million and the balance by way of the issue of the maximum of 150 million Andulela ordinary shares at an issue price of 40 cents per share. The effective date TNAV of GIBB Steel is anticipated to be R95 million. Although we are witnessing a lack of stability in the steel market which has prevailed longer than anticipated and further due to the world economic downturn, there is still significant consolidation needed and implementation of planned restructuring to be effected to maximise returns on the recovery of this economic cycle. Management are confident that the planned restructuring and reduction of costs should enable PRSM to contribute positively to the profitability of the group notwithstanding its lack of profitability in the current financial year. Events subsequent to the year-end With reference to the announcement on SENS dated 14 February 2012, the holder of the preference shares and the company have agreed that the preference shares shall be redeemable on an orderly basis over an extended five-year period, for a minimum redemption amount of R1.25million per month, payable on the last day of each calendar month. Such redemption payments may also be accelerated subject to the company`s cash flow requirements as well as the company`s ability to satisfy the solvency and liquidity test as set out in the Companies Act, 2008. Andulela will continue to accrue for and pay preference share dividends on the reducing unredeemed capital portion of the preference shares in line with the rights attaching thereto. The GIBB Steel transaction is conditional upon the fulfilment or waiver of certain suspensive conditions as detailed in the announcement of 1 February 2011. As at the date of this report all the suspensive conditions have not been fulfilled. Commitments Capital commitments related to capital expenditure contracted to PRSM amounted to an estimated R4.9 million. Restructuring review As indicated in the interim results report for the six months ending 30 June 2011, management has completed a review of the group structure. Management has opted to first improve the trading results of PRSM and conclude the acquisition of GIBB Steel before proceeding with any restructuring. The restructuring initiatives implemented will be reported to shareholders in due course.
