Overview of the Year
The challenging trading conditions already evident in the domestic construction
market last year continued to be experienced throughout this financial year. The
characteristics of an oversupply of construction capacity and the slow
turnaround in the adjudication and award of tenders continue to be dominant
factors in our industry.
The Group`s disappointing financial results were a direct consequence of this
difficult trading environment with headline earnings per share of 8.46 cents a
share (a reduction of 52% on the prior year). Turnover of R1.53b was 23% down on
the prior year. Our EBITDA margin of 4.8% (8.6% in the prior year) is similarly
a reflection of tight trading conditions and reduced volumes of activity.
The trading result of our core civil construction business was a reduction in
EBITDA of 40% on the prior year. The Sanyati North division was the poorest
performer as a result of its inability to secure sufficient contract
opportunities following completion of two major projects early in the financial
year and mobilization delays on the Medupi contract. The Coastal business was
severely impacted by the delay with the award of the Western Aqueduct project by
Ethekwini Municipality and the holding costs of key resources associated
therewith. Sanyati Central produced a very credible result in difficult trading
conditions.
The Specialist Contracting businesses were severely impacted by lack of activity
in their chosen markets resulting in an aggregate EBITDA loss of R14m for the 12
month period.
The reduction in activity levels called for decisive right sizing action and an
aggregate reduction of 260 permanent staff during the year. The total cost of
these retrenchments was R4.9m. Every effort has nevertheless been made to
retain core skills as a platform for future expansion.
During the year, the group acquired a 27% shareholding in Africa Pipe Industries
(Pty) Ltd a manufacturer of spiral welded steel pipe for R13.0 million. The
acquisition is in line with Sanyati`s strategy for expansion into the water
sector.
The Group`s net cash position deteriorated by the amount of R114.8m during the
year. This was primarily due to the investment in working capital of R86.2m and
the settlement of R22m of vendor liabilities.
The net increase in working capital of R86.2m was mainly due to a change in the
type of work undertaken this year as compared to the prior year as well as the
delay with payments on our Free State Roads project near Oliviershoek. We are
confident that this is a temporary situation brought about by a conscious
decision to source new opportunities in a changing environment. A certain number
of these new opportunities offer attractive margins but encompass negative cash
flow profiles in the initial stages of execution. We are confident that this
situation will be reversed in accordance with the underlying contracted payment
terms and as the project life cycles mature in the months ahead.
The Board`s decision to impair the carrying value of goodwill by the amount of
R155 million at 28 February 2011 was arrived at after consideration of both the
economic environment and the short, medium and long term prospects for Sanyati.
The goodwill impaired relates to the Sanyati Piling division (R30 million) and
the Sanyati North division (R125 million). This material impairment has resulted
in the Group incurring a fully diluted loss per share of 26.71 cents for the
period under review.
Looking ahead
The Group`s response to these realities has been to continue to drive our
efforts to reduce our dependence on traditional markets within South Africa. The
objective of identifying attractive opportunities in select countries outside of
South Africa is beginning to bear fruit. The other major objective of leveraging
our position in niche markets offering strong growth prospects within South
Africa has also received much attention during the year.
Positive progress in Uganda and Zambia, a growing business in the laying of
fiber optic cable in South Africa and beyond our borders, the Group`s recent
investment in the spiral welded steel pipe industry for the water distribution
market, new mining clients requiring broad infrastructural services and our
onsite performance and consequent extension of awards in the rail market all
bode well for the future of the Group. The Group`s order book at 28 February was
R866 million with imminent awards of R1 114 million and close prospects of a
further R1 740 million. The imminent awards and close prospects categories
include cross border projects with an aggregate value in excess of R1.6 billion.
The value of the specialist contractor businesses order books for the new
financial year are already equivalent to the entire turnover realised in the
previous 12 months.
BBBEE
Our focused and continued transformation efforts across the organization were
rewarded with our achievement of level 3 contributor status during the year. In
a recent independent review of all companies listed on the JSE Limited, Sanyati
was rated as the 28th most empowered company on the Exchange. A pleasing
statistic was the all important area of employment equity where we were adjudged
the position of 8th across all listed entities.
Board of Directors
Nhanhla Khambule and Hans Michael Dlamini both resigned as non executive
directors during the year, on 27 March 2010 and 25 May 2010, respectively.
John Deeb, the Group Financial Director, resigned at end of April 2011 to take
up a new position outside of South Africa. We thank John for his contribution to
the Group and wish him well for the future. We welcome Aleta Jovner to the
Board. She will assume her duties as the new Group Financial Director on 1 June
2011.
DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS
The Board has decided that based on current market conditions, no dividend will
be declared for this financial year.
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Subsequent to the financial year end there have been no events other than the
change to the Board of directors, as disclosed above that may impact on the
operations of the Group.
BASIS OF PREPARATION
