Commentary
The consolidated abridged interim financial statements have been prepared in terms of
section 8.57 of the JSE Listings Requirements, incorporating IAS 34 on Interim Financial
Reporting and AC500 Standards as issued by the Accounting Practices Board or its successor,
and the Companies Act of South Africa. The principal accounting policies used in the
preparation of the unaudited results for the six months ended 30 June 2012 are consistent
with those applied in the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2011
and for the unaudited results for the six months ended 30 June 2011 in terms of IFRS.
Overall review
Basil Read has continued to be negatively affected by a challenging trading environment
and ongoing uncertainty and volatility in both local and global markets. The construction
sector, in particular, has been adversely impacted as the group continued to record significant
losses on isolated contracts in what is proving to be a protracted slump for the sector as a whole.
The negative environment prevailing in the local construction sector has given rise to
significant contractual risk as contractors, clients and consulting engineers manage difficult
budget constraints. The result is that considerably more claims are being disputed and often
the matter can only be resolved through legal means. In these cases, the claims are not accounted
for until there is a degree of certainty regarding the outcome.
Steady performances by the mining and engineering divisions supported the group's results
and the solid order book and improved cash position augur well for an improvement in operational
performance in the future.
The group increased revenue by 13% to R3,3 billion (June 2011: R2,9 billion). Operating profit
decreased to R40,3 million (June 2011: R144,7 million), a decrease of 72%, as operating margins
contracted to 1,2% (June 2011: 4,9%). Earnings for the six months decreased by 78% to R21,6 million
(June 2011: R98,3 million), exacerbated by a sharply higher interest charge due to the net geared
position of the group.
The group's cash position improved to R787,6 million (December 2011: R653,8 million), mostly
as a result of improved working capital management. Basil Read continues to be hampered by delayed
payments from government debtors and is actively engaging with the relevant government departments
in a bid to resolve long outstanding issues. In particular, the group has a signed settlement letter
from the Free State Provincial Government and is encouraged by the receipt of a recent part payment
in this regard.
Although the group remains in a net geared position, total borrowings decreased by R58,0 million to
R989,0 million (December 2011: R1 047,0 million). The group successfully refinanced two of the bond
issues under the domestic medium-term note programme, for a period of six and 18 months respectively.
The group is actively managing debt levels with a view to paying them down and in turn reduce the
interest burden, which is currently at a higher than acceptable level. The debt equity ratio is currently
at 33,6% (December 2011: 24,7%).
Total assets increased moderately to R5,3 billion (December 2011: R4,9 billion), an increase of 7%.
The structure of the balance sheet is carefully monitored to ensure that it promotes further growth.
Basil Read's order book remains at a healthy R12,7 billion, bolstered by the group's key projects -
the construction and operation of an airport on St Helena Island, phases 2C and 2H of the
Olifants River water resources development project and Cut 8 at the Jwaneng Mine in Botswana.
At the reporting date, the group had issued guarantees in the amount of R2,2 billion (June 2011: R2,0 billion).
These guarantees have arisen in the ordinary course of business and it is not expected that any loss
will arise out of the issue of these guarantees.
Basil Read (Pty) Ltd and TWP Projects (Pty) Ltd, the group's main South African operating companies,
maintained their level 3 BBBEE contributor ratings, meaning that companies are entitled to recognise
110% of the amounts spent with these companies in calculating their procurement spend. Both entities
were further rated as value added suppliers, which affords a further 25% benefit.
Corporate activity
On 1 January 2012, the group disposed of its 50% stake in Siyaya Energy (Pty) Ltd for a sale consideration
of R10 million, resulting in the recognition of a profit on disposal of R1,4 million.
During February 2012, the group disposed of 100% of Basil Read Properties No. 3 (Pty) Ltd, a property
owning subsidiary for a total consideration of R66,3 million. The agreement was concluded with Thunderstruck
Investments (Pty) Ltd, a related party in relation to the group. In terms of the agreement, Basil Read
further agreed to acquire 50% of Thunderstruck Investments (Pty) Ltd for a total consideration of R33,5 million.
Thunderstruck Investments (Pty) Ltd is the owner of the Basil Read head office campus.
Operational review
Safety, health, environmental, risk management and quality
In keeping with international best practice, Basil Read's risk, safety, health, environmental and
quality practices have been incorporated into a transversal SHERQ division. This ensures a risk-driven
approach to safety, health and environmental practices on project sites and the incorporation of
all these activities into the quality management system for the consistent maintenance of quality standards.
The group regularly introduces and drives training and information initiatives aimed at increasing
awareness of occupational health, safety, environmental and quality among subcontractors,
management and employees.
The group's disabling injury frequency rate has reduced to 0,37 at June 2012 from 0,4 at December 2011.
While this falls short of the target set at 0,3, it is encouraging to note that the rate has decreased.
Unfortunately, the group suffered one fatality during the period to June 2012, which emphasises the need
for continuous education regarding safety risks.
A number of sites, particularly in the engineering division, have reached significant safety milestones,
with many recording LTI-free (lost time for injury) days in excess of 300. The mining division reached a
milestone of 2,5 million LTI-free hours, affirming our belief that our safety standards are above
the industry average.

Market conditions in the local construction sector remain depressed and extremely competitive, placing
significant pressure on margins. While government continues to reaffirm its commitment to infrastructural
spend, tenders have been slow to materialise and confidence levels in the industry remain low.
Liquidity pressures in the industry due to delayed or non-payment by government departments continue to
hamper growth and the effective management of scarce working capital is becoming a critical success factor,
evidenced by the recent failure of a local competitor due in part to non-payment from the Free State
Provincial Government.
Basil Read has not been immune to the downturn in the local sector and the construction division continues
to be afflicted by a number of loss-making contracts. The group currently has contractual claims in excess
of R300 million at varying stages of evaluation, which have not been accounted for due to the inherent
uncertainty of the outcome and the often protracted amount of time needed to resolve these claims. In one
instance, Basil Read has been awarded a claim in excess of R140 million as part of an adjudication process.
However, as the client has indicated that it intends to appeal the adjudicator's decision and refer the
matter for arbitration, this award has not been accounted for in the results to June 2012.
Losses recorded during the period include a R27 million loss on a buildings contract following a lengthy
arbitration process and a R25 million loss relating to two roads contracts in the Free State following
receipt of a settlement letter from the Free State Provincial Government.
The difficult conditions in the local industry have led to a natural progression to obtain cross-border
work and the division is now active in several African countries where opportunities are more prevalent.
While cross-border work presents unique risks, margins are generally more favourable. The group's key
cross-border contract to construct and operate an airport on the island of St Helena is progressing well
and continues to represent a historic milestone for one of the most remote islands in the world. As this
contract presents primarily logistical challenges, the group has chartered a ship, the NP Glory 4, for
the tenure of the contract. The vessel made history in July 2012 by becoming the first ship ever to
dock at St Helena.

Basil Read's mining division plays an important role in the group by balancing fluctuations in the
construction sector and continues to be a steady performer, with ongoing contracts locally and in
Botswana. Despite market conditions easing, the division has submitted a large number of tenders.
The Majwe Mining Joint Venture has bedded down well at Debswana's Jwaneng Mine, with various
improvement initiatives being implemented as the contract ramps up to full production. Training
on the correct use of the plant is a critical element for the success of the contract and a
significant investment has been made in this regard.
Work on the Beeshoek contract is progressing well and mining of the new pit has started. Due
to the high demand for operators in the region, some challenges have been faced in securing the
necessary skills to operate the required equipment.
The load and haul contract at Venetia Mine is progressing well and has escalated to include
additional activities. With additional drilling equipment established, the drill and blast is
performing to expectations. The division is optimistic regarding a further three year contract
extension in the second half of the year.
Blasting & Excavating is performing well on its mining projects. There are a significant number
of requests for additional drilling locally. The civils market remains under pressure and limited
work is available, while there is an upwards trend in the amount of quarry work coming out for tender.

The division continues to focus on several large-scale integrated and affordable housing
developments, thereby contributing to the eradication of the housing backlog in South Africa
by creating sustainable cities and communities. The division is well positioned in the social
housing sector where government expenditure is expected to increase significantly over the next
few years. The division is also leveraging its urban management experience as an expert service
provider in this arena.
The division has also made progress with regard to growth in the rest of Africa and has signed
a land development agreement for a mixed-use development in Zambia, with market studies currently
underway. Several other housing development opportunities are currently being investigated
on the continent.
The division's large scale mixed-use housing developments - Cosmo City, Malibongwe Ridge and
Savanna City - are progressing, albeit more slowly than originally anticipated. The division
pre-qualified as one of four consortiums in stage one of the bidding process for the Lufhereng
Integrated Housing development, located near Soweto. The stage two bid was submitted to the
client, the City of Johannesburg, during July 2012.
The division is currently in negotiations with a community-based trust in Mbombela in the Mpumalanga
province regarding the development of a mixed-use integrated development of a similar size and value
as Cosmo City. The transaction is being negotiated on a land-availability agreement basis.
The Klipriver Business Park continues to generate steady sales in phase 1 of the four-phase development.
Construction of units has commenced and the first major manufacturing plant will be in production
at the start of 2013.

The division, comprising specialist engineering consultancy group TWP, has performed to plan
for the first six months of the year. A number of new contracts have been agreed, supplementing
the already strong base load of work, particularly in the mining division. Staff numbers continue
to grow, although at a reduced pace compared to 2011, and staff utilisation remains acceptably high.
The newly established Krugersdorp office is growing well on the back of significant consulting
work in the West Rand gold fields. The Centurion office is also performing well and has received
a number of new contracts from Kumba. The new Kathu office has recently been commissioned to
perform its first contracts in the Northern Cape.
Although the mining division is performing well, work in the process division has slowed as a
result of a number of projects nearing completion. Several studies are currently being performed
that are expected to replace this workload in the medium term.
While there has been some contraction in the platinum sector this has been successfully replaced
by other commodities - iron ore, coal, diamonds and gold in particular.
Basil Read Matomo is growing steadily on the back of new work on the eastern limb and in Barberton.
The required information to bring the Metrowind project to financial close has been submitted,
with project execution likely to commence in the second half of the year depending on regulatory
issues being finalised. This contract is expected to boost Basil Read Matomo significantly.
TWP Peru continued to pick up a number of smaller jobs and is growing capacity. It is becoming
an attractive value proposition for larger work in the region. TWSP, the division's 50% owned
operation in Australia, is progressing with the Newmont Tanami shaft project, while putting
significant effort into broadening its market exposure in the region.
The division continues to diversify its offering. The energy and infrastructure offerings are
gaining momentum, geographic exposure is being gained in the strategic focus regions of
South America, Africa and Australia, and reliance on any single commodity continues to reduce.
TWP has solid interest in multiple commodities, including iron ore, copper, manganese, gold,
diamonds, coal and platinum group metals, and a strong order book to support it for the
balance of 2012, 2013 and 2014.
Prospects
Global markets remain jittery as the debt crises in America and Europe continue to unfold with
a ripple effect being felt in the local economy. Growth figures for South Africa have been
revised down, despite government's best efforts to stimulate the economy. Combined with the
current political uncertainty, conditions are expected to remain difficult in the local market
for the foreseeable future.
Conditions in the rest of Africa, however, are more favourable with significant foreign
investment expected to materialise. Several key geographies have been identified as having
relatively good growth opportunities. The group is cautiously accelerating its African
expansion with due consideration for its defined set of risk parameters.
Softer commodity prices coupled with high capital expenditure costs have led to a slight
contraction in the mining industry. Concerns regarding the global economic environment are
affecting sentiment and the market is looking for direction. Despite the uncertainties,
demand for commodities remains relatively robust and the group's chosen geographies of
South America, Africa and Australia should continue to perform well in the second half.
A significant number of pre-feasibility studies are being conducted by junior mining companies.
The outcome of these studies could have a major impact on future results.
There is considerable potential for integrated residential developments in the low-middle income
category both in South Africa and in the rest of Africa. Due to the time required to bring
large-scale projects to fruition, a more aggressive approach may be required to expedite the
approval process. Where appropriate, an equity stake in suitable turnkey projects may be considered.
These developments should continue to generate secondary work opportunities for the construction division.
Government spend on social housing is rapidly increasing in the affordable rental sector.
These projects require partnerships between developers and accredited social housing institutes
that manage the developments once completed. Basil Read has registered several projects for
funding from the Social Housing Regulatory Authority and is hopeful that some of them will be
prioritised in the next financial year.
Against this background, Basil Read remains committed to growth, underpinned by a strong
order book and effective management teams.
