Comments
Introduction
The Clientele Group ("the Group") has recorded a good set of results for the
year against the backdrop of an ongoing challenging economic environment.
Production volumes showed meaningful improvement, investment returns exceeded
expectation and expenses were well controlled. Withdrawals continue to be an
area of focus, and experience for the last six months was within assumptions.
This has enabled the Group to report an increase in Recurring Embedded Value
Earnings from R428,4 million last year to R552,9 million this year resulting in
a Return (recurring) on Embedded Value of 30%. This was supported by the Value
of New Business which increased by 30% from R353,1 million to R457,6 million.
The return on average shareholders` interest for the year amounted to 64% and
headline earnings per share increased by 25% from 49.31 cents to 61.65 cents.
On the strength of this performance the Board has declared a dividend per share
of 53.50 cents, an increase of 14% over last year`s dividend of 47.00 cents.
Nigeria - Long-term brokerage (IFA Nigeria)
After year end, the Clientele Limited Board, together with the Board of KC2008,
our minority partner, decided to close the IFA Nigeria business and to place it
into voluntary liquidation with effect from 29 July 2011. As has been
previously communicated to shareholders, the biggest challenge and threat to the
viability and sustainability of the IFA business in Nigeria has been the high
level of unpaid premiums. Despite every effort to try and improve the level of
collections, the level of unpaid premiums on existing business continued to
exceed acceptable levels due to factors unique to the Nigerian market. The Board
did not envisage that this situation would change significantly in the
foreseeable future, and reluctantly made the decision to close IFA Nigeria.
Clientele Life fully impaired its R17,5 million loan to IFA Nigeria as at 30
June 2011, as disclosed in the Segment Statements of Comprehensive Income.
Operating Results
Group Embedded Value
The Group has experienced good growth during the year under review and Group
Embedded Value ("EV") has increased from R2 026,8 million (before the dividend
payment) last year to R2 520,3 million at 30 June 2011. This reflects EV
earnings of R661,2 million (2010: R478,3 million), including once-off economic
and other adjustments and Recurring EV Earnings of R552,9 million (2010: R428,4
million) (refer to EV Earnings analysis) and translates into a Return on EV
("ROEV") of 36% (2010: 31%) and a Return (recurring) on EV of 30% (2010: 28%).
The Group`s Value of New Business ("VNB") has increased by 30%, on the back of
good production volumes, from R353,1 million for the previous financial year to
R457,6 million this year and New Business profit margins have improved to 25%
(2010: 24%).
The challenging economic environment has had an effect on withdrawal experience
which resulted in a negative variance of R29,5 million for the year. This
resulted in a change in EV assumptions for certain durations of business at 31
December 2010, as previously reported. Experience in the second half of the year
was in line with the revised assumptions.
The Group has experienced good investment returns for the year from its
investment portfolios as evidenced by the R18,5 million positive investment
return variance on Adjusted Net Worth ("ANW").
The Board has adopted current actuarial guidance in respect of the risk discount
rate, now set at 11.3% (2010: 12.6%). The calculation is comprehensively
explained in the Group EV section of the results and a sensitivity analysis is
also provided showing an extended range in the light of the prevailing
uncertainty in global economies.
Group Statement of Comprehensive Income
Headline earnings for the Group of R199,5 million are 25% higher than the
headline earnings of R159,5 million achieved last year. As a result, diluted
headline earnings per share have increased by 25% to 61.25 cents, up from
49.10 cents and the return on average shareholders` interests amounted to 64%
(2010: 54%).
It should be noted that headline earnings last year includes the reversal of the
deferred tax asset of R7,8 million, in respect of IFA Nigeria.
Insurance premium revenue for the year is up by 11% from R1,0 billion to R1,1
billion and other income of R158,0 million, which mainly comprises annuity fees
from Clientele Life`s
Independent Field Advertisers, is 1% down in comparison to last year`s figure of
R160,0 million.
Operating expenses have increased by 14% over last year which should be viewed
in the context of Clientele`s conservative accounting treatment of expensing
acquisition costs up front and the 30% increase in VNB.
As referred to in the 2010 Annual Report, Clientele adopts the conservative
accounting practice of eliminating negative reserves and thus expensing
acquisition costs upfront and deferring profit release over the life of the
policy. This means that the higher profits reflected in Embedded Value Earnings
are not replicated in the financial statements as a consequence of the strain of
strong new business growth. The total value of negative reserves eliminated now
amounts to R1,6 billion in comparison to R1,1 billion at 30 June 2010.
Net insurance benefits and claims of R209,3 million have increased by 24% from
R169,4 million for last year. The majority of the increase is in respect of
policyholders` benefit payments in respect of unitised endowment contracts, many
of which have now been held for 10 years or more. During the year the average
value per benefit payment has increased in line with improved investment returns
and the ageing of the policy book.
The change in policyholder liabilities under insurance contracts amounted to
R84,0 million (2010: R109,7 million) for the year. This reduction mainly relates
to the refinement in modelling used to determine liabilities for cash-back
benefits and the increase in policyholder benefit payments referred to above.
Segment results
SA Long term insurance - Clientele Life
Clientele Life`s long term insurance segment (the Life segment) remains the
major contributor to overall Group performance. It accounts for 95% or R433,2
million of the Group`s R457,6 million of VNB and generated R186,6 million net
profit for the year which accounts for 98% of the Group`s net profit for the
year of R190,2 million. It should be noted that Clientele Life fully impaired
its R17,5 million loan to IFA Nigeria as at 30 June 2011 as disclosed in the
Segment Statements of Comprehensive Income. Ignoring this impairment, net profit
increased by 8% despite the upfront expensing of acquisition costs in respect of
the high VNB generated.
The Life segment has experienced strong production for the year which has
resulted in the significant growth in VNB.
SA Investment contracts - Clientele Life
In terms of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), expenses in
respect of the Group`s Investment contracts (Single Premium business) are
expensed as and when incurred. The related revenue is, however, amortised over
the term of the contract (usually 60 months).
This operating segment reported a R0,9 million profit for the year. This should
be viewed in conjunction with the R37,1 million (2010: R24.0
million) of deferred profits included in the Statement of Financial Position.
SA Short term insurance - Clientele General Insurance (Clientele Legal)
VNB for the year is down when compared to last year. Withdrawal assumption
changes and lower production volumes, in the first half of the year, have had a
negative effect on the VNB variance for the year.
Despite this, Clientele Legal now has an EV of R241,0 million (2010:
R204,5 million) and has recorded a R17,7 million net profit for the year
compared to the R6,2 million net profit achieved last year.
Clientele Legal is now an established business in its own right and is expected
to continue to make an increasing contribution to the overall Group performance
into the future.
SA Loans - Clientele Loans
The personal loans business, of which Clientele owns 70%, is progressing in line
with expectations and in accordance with its conservative credit assessment and
lending approach. The gross advances book at 30 June 2011 amounted to R122,1
million (2010: R43,3 million) and impairment experience from the book is as
expected.
SA Mobile - Clientele Mobile
Clientele Mobile has made steady progress, recording net profit for the year of
R0,5 million (2010: R0,1 million).
Prospects
We believe a firm foundation for future growth and value creation has been laid
by improving production capacity and the further diversification of products in
Clientele`s traditional Life Insurance business.
This is further enhanced by the value creation and improving performance of the
Group`s new ventures in South Africa. In conclusion, the Group will remain
focused on creating value through its traditional business models and will add
new businesses and products on a conservative basis going forward. New
initiatives will continue to be strictly managed and monitored to ensure that
the overall Group results remain favourably intact.

The Individual Policyholder Fund has an estimated tax loss of R1.68
billion (2010: R1.42 billion).
+ In 2010, the deferred tax asset of R7,8 million, previously raised in respect
of IFA Nigeria`s net loss since inception was reversed due to the uncertainty of
foreseeable future taxable profits. As a result, no deferred tax has been raised
in 2011.

Notes to the Results
The results have been reviewed by the Group`s external auditors,
PricewaterhouseCoopers Incorporated, in terms of International Standards on
Review Engagements 2410. The scope of the review was to enable the auditors to
report that nothing came to their attention that caused them to believe that the
accompanying condensed preliminary consolidated financial information is not
presented in all material respects, in accordance with the South African
Companies Act 71 of 2008, as amended and section 8.57 of the JSE Limited
Listings Requirements. A copy of the review opinion is available on request at
the Company`s registered offices.
The Group Results were prepared under the supervision of Mr IB Hume (CA(SA),
ACMA), the Group Financial Director.
Accounting Policies
Statement of compliance
The accounting policies adopted for the purpose of the Group Financial
statements comply with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), the
JSE Limited Listings Requirements, the AC500 Standards as issued by the
Accounting Practices Board and the Companies Act 71 of 2008, as amended, and are
consistent with those used in the Annual Financial statements for the year ended
30 June 2010. The results have been prepared in terms of IAS 34 (Interim
Financial Reporting).
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the use
of certain critical accounting estimates and judgement. The reported amounts in
respect of the Group`s insurance contracts, employee benefits and unquoted
financial instruments are affected by accounting estimates and judgement.
There was no significant impact due to changes in previous assumptions used in
deriving the amounts referred to above.
Segment Information
The Group`s results are analysed across two geographical segments which are
South Africa ("SA") and Nigeria. The Group`s main operating segments are Long-
term insurance, Short-term insurance, Investment contracts, Loans business,

' SAR scheme - the Clientele Limited Group Share Appreciation Rights
Scheme
Embedded Value
The Embedded Value ("EV") represents an estimate of the value of the Group,
exclusive of goodwill attributable to future new business. The EV comprises:
- the Free Surplus; plus,
- the Required Capital identified to support the in-force business;
plus,
- the Present Value of In-force business ("PVIF"); less,
- the Cost of Required Capital ("CoC").
The PVIF business is the present value of future after tax profits arising from
covered business in force as at 30 June 2011.
All material business written by the Group has been covered by EV Methodology as
outlined in Professional Guidance Note, PGN 107 of the Actuarial Society of
South Africa, including:
- all long-term insurance business regulated in terms of the Long-Term
Insurance Act, 1998;
- annuity income arising from non-insurance contracts where EV
Methodology has been used to determine future shareholder
entitlements;
- Legal insurance business where EV Methodology has been used to
determine future shareholder entitlements; and,
- Loans and Mobile business where EV Methodology has been used to
determine future shareholder entitlements.
Subsequent to year end, the IFA Nigeria Board of Directors, the Clientele
Limited Board of Directors and the KC2008 Directors resolved to terminate the
IFA Nigeria operations with effect from 29 July 2011. The Board has continued to
set the EV of the Nigerian operation at its Net Asset Value.
The EV calculations have been certified by the Group`s independent actuaries,
QED Actuaries & Consultants Proprietary Limited. The EV can be summarised as
follows:
Year ended 30 June
(R`000`s) 2011 2010
Free surplus 199 505 179 637
Required capital 139 565 116 429
Adjusted Net Worth ("ANW") of covered 339 070 296 066
business
CoC (36 747) (38 166)
PVIF 2 218 010 1 768 859
EV of covered business 2 520 332 2 026 760
The ANW of covered business is defined as the excess value of all assets
attributed to the covered business, but not required to back the liabilities of
covered business. Free Surplus is the ANW less the Required Capital attributed
to covered business.

SAR Scheme adjustment (40 129) (18 243)
ANW 339 070 296 066
The CoC is the opportunity cost of having to hold the Required Capital of R139.6
million as at 30 June 2011. The Required Capital has been set at the greater of
the Statutory Termination Capital Adequacy Requirement and 1.25 times the
Statutory Ordinary Capital Adequacy Requirement for the Life company plus the
Required Statutory Capital for the Short Term company.
The SAR Scheme adjustment recognises the future dilution in EV, on a mark to
market basis, as a result of the SAR Scheme.
Clientele Life`s Statutory CAR cover ratio at 30 June 2011 was 2.94 times
(30 June 2010: 3.03 times) on the statutory valuation basis.
Value Of New Business
Year ended 30 June
(R`000`s) 2011 2010
Total Value of New Business ("VNB") 457 587 353 127
Present Value of New Business premiums 1 859 123 1 503 558
New Business profit margin 24.6% 23.5%
The VNB (excluding any allowance for the Management Incentive scheme) represents
the present value of projected after tax profits at the point of sale on new
covered business commencing during the year ended 30 June 2011 less the
CoC pertaining to this business.
The New Business profit margin is the VNB expressed as a percentage of the
present value of future premiums (and other annuity fee income) pertaining to
the same business.
Long-Term EconomicAssumptions (South Africa)
Year ended 30 June
2011 2010
Risk discount rate % 11.30 12.60
Overall investment return % 7.80 8.10
Expense inflation % 5.80 6.10
Corporate tax % 28.00 28.00
The risk discount rate ("RDR") has been determined using a top-down weighted
average cost of capital approach, with the equity return calculated using
Capital Asset Pricing Model ("CAPM") theory. In terms of current actuarial
guidance, the RDR has been set as the risk free rate plus a beta multiplied by
the assumed equity risk premium. It has been assumed that the equity risk
premium (i.e. the long term expected difference between equity returns and the
risk free rate) is 3.5%. Two and a half years ago PGN107 was revised and the
approach to setting the risk discount rate was defined via a formula based on
the risk free rate plus a margin. At this time Clientele added an additional
explicit margin of 1% to the RDR used in the EV calculation. Despite the current
market conditions the Board believe it more appropriate to align its
determination of the RDR with the basic formula outlined in PGN107 so as to be
consistent with the industry and produce comparable results. This explicit
additional margin has thus been removed effective 30 June 2011. The Board draws
the reader`s attention to the risk discount rate sensitivity analysis in the
table below which allows for sensitivity comparisons using various alternative
RDR`s. The beta pertaining to the Clientele share price is relatively low, which
is partially a consequence of the relatively small free-float of shares. After
careful consideration, the Board has decided to continue to use a more
conservative beta of 1, as opposed to its actual beta of 0.49, in the
calculation of the RDR.
The resulting risk discount rate utilised for the South African business as at
30 June 2011 was 11.30%.

* Fraud was detected during the reporting period relating to policy sales in the
last quarter of the 2010 financial year. Whilst the cash loss and impact on IFRS
earnings to the Group was negligible, it did result in a reduction of Group EV
earnings for the period of R16.1 million. The related internal controls to
prevent and detect sales related fraud will continue to be enhanced to mitigate
the possibility of future fraud of this nature.
In addition, a batch of Legal policies was erroneously reflected as active at 30
June 2010 due to an isolated system error which also resulted in a reduction of
EV earnings for the period of R12.2 million.
