8 Events after balance sheet date
The directors are not aware of any matter or circumstance arising
since the end of the financial year.
Basis of accounting
preparation
The accounting policies applied for the year are consistent, in all
material respects, with those used in the Annual Financial Statements of
the prior period in accordance with the recognised and measurements
criteria of International Reporting Standards (IFRS) and the presentation
and disclosure requirements of International Accounting Standards 34,
Interim Financial Reporting, as well as AC 500 standards as issued by the
Accounting Practices Board, the Listings Requirements of the JSE and the
Companies Act 71 of 2008.
These condensed financial results were prepared under the review of Mr
Michael Arbuthnot CA(SA)in his capacity as financial manager.
The Annual Financial results have been prepared in accordance with the
IFRS and IFRIC interpretations as adopted for use in South Africa at the
time of the preparation of the information. As these standards and
interpretations are subject to ongoing review, they may be amended between
the date of this report and the finalization of the annual financial
statements for the year ended 31 March 2012.
Segmental
analysis
The directors considered the implications of IFRS 8 Operating Segments and
are of the opinion that the operations of the company are substantially
similar and that the risks and returns of these operations are likewise
similar. Resource allocation and the management of the operation are
performed on an aggregated basis, and as such the company is considered to
be a singly aggregated business and therefore is no additional reporting
requirements in terms of IFRS 8.
Commentary
RAC`s net asset value per share (for both the unlisted ordinary and the
listed preference shares) increased from R10.26 to R11.12 over the past
year. This reflects the fact that the bulk of the company`s assets were
still in the form of cash and money market investments for most of the
year. The book value of all RAC`s equity investments stands at R123.3
million while the market value of these investments at year-end was R162.1
million. At 8.4% (after tax), the increase in net asset value per share
compares respectably to that delivered by the major asset class indices in
South Africa of 7.5% for equities (FTSE/JSE All Share), 13.1% for bonds
(South Africa All Bond Index) and 5.3% for cash (Short Term Fixed Income -
SteFI - Call) over the same period.
By year end, on a see-through basis, 28.3% (2011: 9.3%) of RAC`s assets
were invested in listed and unlisted equities, with the balance held in
cash and money market investments. Included in the cash and money market
investments is a balance of R91.2 million earmarked for the funding of
RAC`s interest in the Namaqualand Mines transaction, on which we have
commented before. If this balance were included as an equity investment,
it would raise the percentage of the portfolio invested in equity to
44.6%.
As the percentages above suggest, we managed to deploy capital into a
select number of attractive publicly traded equity opportunities during
the year. As mentioned before, and in an effort to protect our investment
opportunity set from competition, we generally refrain from disclosing
details about our activities in publicly traded equities until such time
as we have completed an ownership cycle (i.e. buy, hold and sell). But it
is worth noting that many of the shares we own and were researching as
potential investments experienced substantial share price increases during
the last six months. This triggered a limited amount of selling activity
on our part, but we have not completed a full ownership cycle with any of
the investments owned by RAC yet.
It is now almost a year since the bid of the Emerald Panther consortium
(of which RAC is a member) for Namaqualand Mines was accepted. However,
negotiations to finalise the exact terms of the investment continue. We
will report progress in this matter when possible and appropriate.
At year end, the publicly traded equities in RAC`s portfolio were in
aggregate priced at about 68% of our estimate of fair value. This is
attractive, but a notable contraction in the margin of safety from the 58%
of fair value that the portfolio was priced at when we last disclosed this
number with the interim results of 30 September 2011.
We continue to investigate potential investments, both publicly traded and
private, but the pace at which we deploy capital into opportunities will
always depend on the value we find: the more plentiful the value, the more
rapid will our pace of capital deployment be. We are selective in
committing capital, and continue to pass on many opportunities that are
presented to us. We would like to be able to invest meaningful amounts of
capital in the year to come, but there is no guarantee that this will be
possible.
