This was achieved by solid growth across our existing platforms and the first effects of looklocal revenues. Current year profits have been negatively impacted by the fraudulent activities of the previous Financial Director, the write-off of irrecoverable receivables, an increase in the provision for doubtful debts and the initial costs relating to launching looklocal. The Group has initiated a criminal charge against the previous Financial Director. The earnings enhancing benefit of looklocal is only expected to be evident following the completion of the initial roll-out plan towards the end of the financial year ending 31 March 2012. looklocal is an important strategic initiative for the group. Investment income increased significantly reflecting the benefit of the issue of 30.8 million shares for R20.9 million cash in August 2010. The aforegoing has resulted in a net loss of R3.76 million for the year (2010: net profit R1.63 million), representing a loss of 3.94 cents per share (2010: 2.15 cents profit per share). While the group`s operating cash flow for the year reflects the trading loss reported, the group had in excess of R24 million in cash reserves and highly liquid investments at year-end and remains debt free. Operating results Another year of circa 30% revenue growth confirms that our strategy over the last 18 months of extending and deepening our various web and broadcast platforms is producing the desired financial result. During the year we concluded an arrangement with the Caxton group in terms of which Moneyweb will build, manage and operate a portfolio of geographically focused (hyper-local) community websites, under the looklocal brand. By year-end, 29 looklocal sites had gone live and we expect to complete the initial roll-out by 31 March 2012. Subsequent to year end we have launched our first iPad application for Mineweb, which is available for download on the Apple iTunes store. Plans are well advanced for additional applications, both on the Apple and Android platforms. Prospects We will continue to increase our focus by looking to drive additional revenues across our flagship platforms. Our decision post year end to discontinue Mineweb`s joint venture arrangements with Infomine will allow us to pursue revenue opportunities from which we were previously precluded. Furthermore, as indicated above, we anticipate increasing contributions from both looklocal and the roll-out of our Apps strategy as these gain traction. Post balance sheet events There are no other material events subsequent to the year-end that have not been reflected in the reviewed financial results for the year ended 31 March 2011 or that require further disclosure. Basis of preparation Statement of compliance The reviewed condensed financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2011 have been prepared in accordance with the framework concepts and the recognition and measurement requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and the AC500 Standards as issued by the Accounting Practices Board or its successor, and contains the information required by IAS34: Interim Financial Reporting, and is in compliance with the requirements of the Companies Act of South Africa and the Listing Requirements of the JSE Limited The principal accounting policies used in the preparation of the results for the year ended 31 March 2011 are consistent with those applied for the year ended 31 March 2010 and are in terms of IFRS, except for the adoption of IAS1: Presentation of Financial Statements (Revised) which has had no impact on the results but affects presentation. International Financial Reporting Standard 8: Operating Segments is not applicable as the group is a single segment business.

Going concern The reviewed condensed financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2011 have been prepared on the going-concern basis since the directors have every reason to believe that the company has adequate resources in place to continue in operation for the foreseeable future. Review opinion The group`s auditors, BDO South Africa Inc. have reviewed the provisional condensed financial results for the year ended 31 March 2011 contained in this announcement and have issued an unmodified conclusion with emphasis being drawn to the reportable irregularity, as defined in the Auditing Profession Act, being reported.

Due to the matter being dealt with the reportable irregularity is not continuing. Dividend No dividend is proposed.
