4. Notes
Major Changes to the Statement of Financial Position
Non Current Assets and Non Current Liabilities
Non-current assets decreased from R166 million to R158 million mainly as a
result of the settlement of the Armco management loans amounting to R27.2
million after reversal of the impairment provision of R8 million, by means
of set-off against the repurchase of 25 076 250 shares from the Armco
management and additional property and plant acquired of R17.5 million. Non
current liabilities decreased from R55 million to R43 million as a result of
a reduction in borrowings of R12.6 million.
Current Assets and Current Liabilities
Current assets decreased from R193 million to R175 million and current
liabilities decreased from R82 million to R60 million mainly attributable to
an increase in inventory of R3.7 million, a decrease in net taxes owing and
receivable of R1.3 million, a reduction in cash and cash equivalents of
R22.3 million with a corresponding reduction in borrowings of R4 million and
trade payables of R17.7 million. Trade receivable increased by R4.8 million.
Equity
Equity increased from R221 million to R229 million attributed to the
reduction in share capital of R26.1 million as a result of the buy back of
25 076 250 shares, whilst reserves increased by R33.9 million attributable
to the current profit of R38.7 million less the dividend paid of R4.8
million.
5. Dividends
The directors declared a dividend of 2 cents per share on the 17 December
2010, which was paid on Monday, 24 January 2011 to ordinary shareholders
recorded in the books of the company at the close of business on Friday, 21
January 2011.
Dividends are declared after consideration on the solvency and liquidity of
the Company and with due regard to the current funding status of the
company, future funding requirements and attributable cash flows.
Accordingly the Board of Directors have further declared a final cash
dividend of 5 cents per share. A detailed SENS announcement setting out the
dividend timetable will be released shortly.
6. Results and related party transactions
The overall financial performance of the Group was encouraging.
O-line and ARMCO management focused on the deliverance and enhancement of
synergistic values as a result of the ARMCO acquisition including the
amalgamation of all branches and outlets and the consolidation of the O-line
and ARMCO brand of product.
During the period, the Group entered into various transactions with its
related parties. Full disclosure is made in the O-line annual report for the
year ended 30 June 2011.

7. Cash Flow
The excess cash generated out of the operating activities of O-line has
been spent on capital expenditure, working capital and the repayment of
debt. The buy back by the company of its shares from Armco management had no
impact on cash flow as the purchase price paid was discharged by way of set-
off against the Armco management loans.
8. Prospects
Chairman, E.A. Jay, market overview
O-line has produced a good performance in a very challenging environment.
Management has been particularly good in growing the business outside South
Africa whilst at the same time containing costs in the business. Margins in
the domestic market remain tight. This however is balanced by an
increasingly larger order book in the domestic market. The marginal and
unprofitable businesses were closed in the previous financial year. All the
current business units are performing well and are profitable. The capital
investments that were made over the past 2 years are all contributing to the
profitability. The powder coating plant is working to full capacity and the
newly purchased galvanising plant has been substantially revamped and we
expect it to add to the company`s bottom line in the new financial year.
Going Forward
The challenge for the company going forward will be to address the rising
labour and electricity costs which have risen out of proportion to
inflation. These costs cannot all be passed onto customers especially in
view of the fact that whilst the Rand remains strong, many products can be
imported at a lower cost. The company will continue to improve its
productivity by streamlining the business processes, working on productivity
and managing the variable costs.
Chief Executive Officer, Graeme Smart, view of future prospects
Prospects for the future are promising and although the 1st month of the
first quarter resulted in losses due to the Metal Workers Union strikes and
the entire operations having to vacate premises for a week, management is
endeavouring to make up the lost revenue. Galvanizers have a solid base
moving forward regardless of the Zincor story, the divisions have already
secured and strengthened existing and new relationships around the future
supply of zinc and management has no concern around shortages what so ever.
Future work will be attributed to the fabricated steel requirements for the
power stations. The division should see a further growth of approximately
20% through the introduction of the new Randfontein plant which should free
capacity within the Isando and Dunswart operations, allowing for a higher
allotment of external work.
Roads Safety Products took off with a bang through the awarding of a R11
Million project currently underway in the DRC for the installation of Wire
Rope. The division will endeavour to increase its revenue through aggressive
strategies within the branches and management is strongly of the opinion
that the competition currently at play should revert to normal which
ultimately will result in a good performance over the next financial year.
Construction products are expected to once again produce a great performance
as the division remains busy with possible project prospects amounting to
R82 million. The divisions focus will be on that of new export markets and
maintaining a visible presence within the SADC region.
The Cable Support Systems division has started the year well with orders on
hand amounting to R20 million in Projects, including the new Nigerian sugar
mill which has once again opened new doors for expansion. Furthermore the
projects group has begun diversifying through offerings related to the
manufacture and supply of services outside the current scope of work. From a
commercial division the year holds new prospects and exciting times as new
products are launched in conjunction with the companies` newly announced
partnership with the German based company OBO Bettermann. The innovative
products which allow for quick installations have attracted significant
interest in the market and have already been specified for various jobs
expected to take place this year.
