The board of directors of EOH ("the board") is satisfied with the performance
for the year under review. The statement of financial position is strong with
substantial cash resources to support future growth and sustainability. The
board thanks its people, clients and technology partners for their contribution
during the year under review. Revenue increased by 43,5% to R2 428,9 million and
profit before tax is up by 56,5% to R234,4 million. The growth is attributable
to a combination of both organic growth and recent acquisitions. Earnings per
share ("EPS") and Headline earnings per share ("HEPS") have grown significantly
by 35,4% and 35,2% respectively with cash increasing to R321,5 million.
Business combinations
During the year, EOH`s primary focus was to increase its Managed Services,
Microsoft and BPO Health businesses and accordingly the group made several
acquisitions in these areas.
EOH`s Managed Services offering was enhanced with the acquisition of TSS Managed
Services (Proprietary) Limited ("TSSMS") which focuses on delivering services to
the Public Sector. TSSMS was acquired for R130,5 million and their results
incorporated from 14 June 2011.
The group further expanded its services in the Microsoft infrastructure,
applications and development space with the acquisition of the business of Belay
Solutions (Proprietary) Limited and its subsidiaries for R55,9 million. Belay`s
results have been included from 3 February 2011.
EOH launched its Health BPO service offerings by acquiring the businesses of
Elixir Group (Proprietary) Limited and Pinnacle Health Solutions (Proprietary)
Limited from the same shareholders for an aggregate purchase consideration of
R72,0 million. The results of these operations have been incorporated with
effect from 1 October 2010.
EOH broadened its resourcing business through the acquisition of Compensation
Technologies Holdings (Proprietary) Limited with effect from 1 August 2010 and
its Legal BPO service offerings by acquiring CLS Consulting Services
(Proprietary) Limited with effect from 1 March 2011. The results of these two
operations have been incorporated from the effective dates.
EOH also acquired several small businesses in line with its cloud strategy, none
of which are regarded as material. No operations were closed off or disposed of
during the year under review.
Segmental reporting
EOH`s revenue is derived from the provision of services (consulting, systems
implementation and integration and managed services), software (software sales
and maintenance revenue) and infrastructure products.

Procurement Recognition of 138% as a Value Adding Vendor. EOH has made
significant contributions to the Maths and Science Centre as part of its CSI
initiatives focused on education projects. This initiative is aimed at providing

also been supporting several businesses as part of its Enterprise Development
programme.
EOH`s black shareholding is in excess of 30% of which 5% are black women. 60% of
the board members are black and 53% of EOH`s staff is black.
Future plans
EOH`s growth strategy will continue to be a combination of organic growth and
strategic acquisitions. The main growth areas will be infrastructure and
applications managed services, cloud offerings, enterprise applications,
Business Process Outsourcing ("BPO"), security and facilities management. Major
investments will be made in developing EOH`s offerings in Africa.
EOH feels that as a South African enterprise it has the responsibility to
actively contribute all that it knows and the resources that it has to improving
Public Sector delivery. EOH also believes that the Public Sector represents a
major business opportunity and if done well, could represent a substantial part
of its future growth. In this regard, EOH believes that it is able to add value
and contribute to improving the service delivery in the health sector,
education, municipalities and other government departments.
EOH has the ability, means and the resources to continue to grow aggressively.
Job creation initiative
EOH has embarked on a major job creation initiative to address the issue of the
8 million unemployed people in South Africa and it believes that government
alone cannot shoulder this responsibility. Unemployment is a major business risk
and business needs to provide leadership and do much more. EOH is creating a
team who will work with its top 300 clients and business partners to devise ways
and means of creating more jobs and to generate ideas and meaningful plans to
develop and train young people. A new skill is equivalent to a new job.
EOH will work jointly with existing government departments to mobilise existing
and new job creation initiatives.
