Segment Report
Segment information
The group is organised into two main segments based on the type of industries
they deliver services to.
The group`s reportable segments are as follows:
For management purposes, the group is organised into two distinct business
segments, based on the services that each provides. The group is a pure services
company and derives no income from the selling of third party software or
hardware. The pricing structure for the "insurance and medical aid
administration software services" segment is largely based on the number of
members administered.
Management monitors the operating results of the business segments continuously
to optimise the allocation of resources and to assess performance and
profitability. Finance costs, finance income and income taxes are managed on a
group basis.

Commentary
Group results
The group recorded a profit before taxation of R18 878 075 for the six-month
period ending 28 February 2011.
Taxation amounted to R5 510 196 resulting in an after-tax profit of R13
367 879. The group realised R5.5 million of the deferred tax asset raised in the
previous financial period through the statement of comprehensive income as at 28
February 2011.
Earnings per share (EPS) and headline earnings per share (HEPS)for the six-month
period amounted to 10.0 cents.
Board composition
Mr Martin Rennhackkamp resigned as a director with effect from 22 February 2011
and has relocated to Melbourne, Australia where he has been appointed as
director of PBT Group (Australia) Pty Limited, significantly strengthening the
group`s business intelligence offering in Australia.
Mr Jason Kinnear and Mrs Michelle Baron-Williamson have been appointed as
directors with effect from 25 February 2011 and Mrs Elizna Read has been
appointed as Human Resources Director with effect from 18 April 2011.
Dividend
An interim dividend of 3 cents per ordinary share (total payment: R8 454 805)
has been declared, and will be paid on Monday, 30 May 2011.
Earnings and headline earnings per share
As PBT Group exceeded its profit before tax warranty of R32 million for the 12
months ending 28 February 2011, the PBT vendors will be issued with an
additional 51 461 997 ordinary shares to conclude the acquisition of PBT Group
Limited. This will have a significant dilutive effect on future earnings per
share and headline earnings per share.
Prospects
The group increased its client base and cemented its position as the leading
business intelligence and data management services company in South Africa.
Rapid expansion into the Africa/Middle East regions and Australia will result in
the group deriving more than 50% of its income from foreign operations in the
next six months.
Comparative figures
The reverse listing of PBT Group Limited into the Wooltru cash shell and the
subsequent change in the year-end and the capital structure have a significant
effect on the comparative earnings per share and headline earnings per share
figures and requires careful analysis.
