Commentary
Financial performance
Metmar achieved a pleasing operating performance for the year ended 29 February
2012, as a result of the strong turnaround in trading results in the second six
months of the financial year. Annual revenue grew by 14% to R2,6 billion (2011:
R2,3 billion).
The gross profit margin showed a substantial improvement to 11% (2011: 8%),
underpinned by the strong performance of the trading activities as well as
benefits of implementing the new strategy which led to increased volumes and
higher margins from Metmar`s investee companies. Operating profit grew 5% to
R107,9 million. Increased volumes contributed to this improvement however these
were offset mainly by increased costs linked to higher volumes.
Operating expenses increased to R229,1 million (2011: R140,6 million) largely as
a result of increases in marketing fees for chrome, increased transport costs to
move coke from Zimbabwe to South Africa, restructuring and legal costs, debtor
discounting costs and impairments and employee costs.
The Group recorded a 54% increase in profit before tax to R108,1 million (2011:
R70,1 million). This improvement includes the fair value adjustment of R28
million, the majority of which arises from the valuation of the Alphamin shares
and options acquired during the year.
Attributable profits increased by 63% to R76,3 million (2011: R46,7 million)
while headline earnings increased to R79,2 million (2011: R48,6 million).
The financial position of the Group remains strong. The net asset value
increased by 6% to 277,5 cents per share (2011: 261,8 cents per share). The
investments in equity instruments were valued by an independent expert to R253
million. The valuation has considered risks inherent in some of the investments
such as funding, regulatory risks in countries such as Zimbabwe and possible
delayed commencement of production.
Net cash and cash equivalents at the end of the period amounted to R39,5 million
(2011: R48,4 million). The Group achieved a positive cash flow from operating
activities of R54,3 million (2011: outflow of R54,2 million). A total of R78,9
million was used in investing activities (2011: R124,2 million).
Divisional performance and prospects
Trading
Commodities achieved an operating profit of R45,2 million as trading margins
recovered to pre-2008 levels. The weak rand in the second half of the financial
year benefited the business.
Commodities invested in additional staff to cope with the increased volumes from
general trading. The operating margin of the commodities` segment was similar to
the previous year.
Prices of certain commodities declined mainly due to the slowing down of the
Chinese Economy. Although chrome prices decreased, strong volume growth was
achieved for this commodity following the Group`s purchase of Eastern Belt
Chrome Mines Proprietary Limited (EBCM) and as a result of general chrome
trading activities. In addition reasonable demand for base metals was
experienced. In the domestic market, the closure of Zincor, a major domestic
zinc producer, at the end of 2011, opened up new opportunities.
Polychem
Polychem distributes polymers, natural rubber and rubber chemicals and again
delivered a record performance despite muted market activity. West African
Group, a sub-division of Polychem, achieved an operating profit of R43,3
million.
While the majority of product lines performed well, the operation showed solid
market share gains in its polyethylene, chemical and filler products. It also
benefited from a strong uptake among its customers for new products that were
launched by its international suppliers. Its success in increasing market share
was underpinned by a heightened focus on customer service, in depth knowledge of
its products and the overall quality of its product range.
Investments
The evaluation of each investment was completed during the year, enabling Metmar
Investments and Resources Proprietary Limited (Investments) to identify its
ongoing core assets. The division is now focused on implementing its strategic
objective of taking controlling stakes in key investments, focusing on chrome,
manganese, tin, tantalite, coke and coal opportunities.
For the year under review, Investments achieved an operating profit of R21,1
million.
On 29 February 2012, Metmar announced related party transactions in respect of
Metmar Industrial Proprietary Limited (Metmar Industrial) which took place
during the period under review. The fairness review in respect of these
transactions is ongoing and shareholders will be advised in due course of the
outcome of this process.
Progress for each of the major investments is as follows:
* The Group acquired the remaining 20% stake in Metmar Industrial for a
consideration of R17,7 million. During the year, Metmar Industrial supplied
in excess of 100 000 metric tons of metallurgical coke to the South
African, Zimbabwean and Zambian markets. Metmar Industrial also processes
dumps from chemical and metallurgical industries.
* During the year Metmar made a stepped acquisition of EBCM, buying an
additional 80% equity stake, bringing its total holding to 100%. EBCM owns
51% of Steelpoort Chrome Mines Proprietary Limited (Goudmyn) and 49,9% of
Bolepu Holdings Proprietary Limited (Bolepu). Bolepu in turn owns 40% of
Sefateng Chrome Proprietary Limited (Sefateng). Goudmyn has 700 000 tons of
open cast minable high quality LG6 material and Sefateng has 2,5 million
metric tons of open cast minable LG6 and a further 37 million metric tons
to be mined underground. Metmar Trading secured the off-take for 200 000
metric tons of chrome ore from the mining operations at Sefateng`s
Zwartkoppies mine and a further 200 000 tons from its Waterkop mine.
Sefateng supplied a total of 196 940 metric tons of chrome ore to Metmar
Trading during the period under review. Metmar Trading acquired the entire
off-take for chrome ore from the mining operations at Goudmyn.
* Metmar owns 11,66% of Kalahari Resources Proprietary Limited (Kalahari
Resources), which owns 40% of Kalagadi Manganese Proprietary Limited
(Kalagadi). Kalagadi continues to make good progress with the development
of its manganese mine in the Northern Cape which will produce 3 million
tons of ore per annum. Construction of the sinter plant to produce 2,4
million tons of beneficiated sintered ore is more than 70% complete with
the engineering components nearing completion. A smelter will also be built
at Coega to produce 320 000 tons of manganese alloys per annum. The smelter
will consume 700 000 tons of sinter, leaving 1,7 million tons for export. A
new trading entity has been formed between Metmar and Kalahari Resources.
Metmar is finalising an off-take agreement with Kalagadi for part of the
manganese sinter, as well as part of the alloy production. The mine and the
sinter plant are anticipated to be completed in the second half of 2012,
with the smelter in Coega completed in the second half of 2013. The
marketing of the Kalagadi products represents such a unique opportunity for
Metmar that the CEO, Mr David Ellwood, will take personal management of
this project.
* The terms of the transaction to acquire Metmar Speciality Metals
Proprietary Limited (MSM) were restructured during the year, resulting in
Metmar increasing its stake to a controlling interest of 80% in MSM. The
project involves processing vanadium slag dumps to recover product with 40%
vanadium content, all of which is marketed by Metmar Trading. Metmar has
appointed a new management team which will enable it to exercise better
financial and operational control of the vanadium slag operation to ensure
that the project delivers the expected returns.
* Kivu Resources Limited (Kivu) is 8,98% owned by Metmar and its main
activity is mining exploration in both the Democratic Republic of Congo
(DRC) and Rwanda. During the year, Kivu distributed pro rata to its
shareholders 70% of the shares in its DRC-based subsidiary which holds the
DRC assets. The shareholders in turn exchanged these shares for Toronto
Stock Exchange-listed Alphamin Resources Corp (Alphamin) shares. Metmar
received 2 733 260 Alphamin shares with a current value of R15,7 million.
Alphamin also has a call option and Kivu shareholders a put option on an
additional 20% of the DRC subsidiary at C$0,80 per Alphamin share, or
approximately 18,4 million shares in Alphamin at the election of Kivu
shareholders, for a period of three years. Metmar`s portion of this option
amounts to 2 069 606 Alphamin shares. This was valued at R11,9 million at
financial year-end, based on closing share price of C$0,76. Alphamin
recently raised finance required to carry out exploration work through a
convertible note and has sufficient working capital to complete the
geological work on the DRC tin deposit. Metmar acquired management control
of the Rwandan operation in the last quarter with immediate benefits. Kivu,
with the largest mineral concessions in Rwanda by land coverage, has three
tin mining concessions which are owned in conjunction with the government
of Rwanda.
* Metmar owns 20% of Pering Base Metals Proprietary Limited (PBM) which in
turn owns 100% of Pering Mine (Proprietary) Limited (Pering Mine). Pering
Mine holds a combined in-pit and stockpiled reserve of 51 million metric
tons from which PBM plans to produce 1,2 billion pounds of zinc and lead
over a 13-year life-of-mine using DMS technology. With the bankable
feasibility study completed, the process of raising equity and bank finance
to recommission the Pering Mine is ongoing.
* Metmar owns a 20% share of SA Metals Equity Proprietary Limited, whose
objective is to build a plant to extract pig iron from calcine. The pre-
feasibility study showed excellent returns and the final bankable
feasibility, engineering studies and environmental impact assessment are in
process. Production is planned to commence earliest in 2014. Metmar will
have the marketing rights for the pig iron production.
* Zimbabwe Alloys Chrome (Private) Limited (ZAC), in which Metmar has a 7,7%
effective shareholding, is the largest chrome resource in Zimbabwe,
containing 30 million tons of high-grade chrome. Despite the challenges
imposed by the Zimbabwean political environment and delays in completing
the competent person`s report (CPR), the Group is fully committed to the
project. Further exploration of the chrome concessions commenced in
December 2011 and a new SAMREC and JORC-compliant CPR is in progress. As a
result of the ban on exports of non-beneficiated chrome ore from Zimbabwe,
the operations have been placed on care and maintenance. The current
priority is to raise the required funding to refurbish the furnaces in
order to comply with legislation, allowing ZAC to produce and export its
ferrochrome alloy production.
Dispute
The dispute with Ruukki South Africa (Proprietary) Limited ("Ruukki") regarding
the outstanding payments of the proceeds to the Mogale Vendors is ongoing.
Metmar is a minor vendor in this dispute.
The arbitration relating to Furnace 4 was awarded in favour of the vendors in
December 2011, however Ruukki subsequently issued a notice of review on this
matter.
Metmar understands that the Mogale Vendors will continue to vigorously pursue
their rights; however final resolution is unlikely to occur quickly.
Directorate
The following changes to Metmar`s board of directors took effect during the year
under review:
* Mrs Molleen de Wet stood down as CFO of the Company with effect from 1
October 2011 to focus on her responsibility as CFO of Metmar Trading, which
has shown extensive growth since the listing of Metmar in 2006.
* Mr Glen Forsdyke retired from Metmar and resigned from the board with
effect from 31 October 2011.
* Mr Sizwe Nkosi was appointed as the new CFO of Metmar with effect from 1
October 2011. He is a CA(SA), holds an MBA and has in excess of 15 years`
experience including financial management and commodity marketing in
resources and financial services companies in South Africa. Mr Nkosi took
on the additional responsibility as CFO for Investments.
* Mrs Dawn Earp was appointed as an independent non-executive director of the
Company and a member of its audit and risk committee and chairperson of the
social and ethics committee with effect from 1 October 2011. Mrs Earp is a
CA(SA) and has held executive finance positions in several Anglo American
companies and other top mining groups for more than 20 years.
Outlook
The USA is showing early signs of recovery, but the expectation for the Chinese
economy is of slower growth in the year ahead, while Europe will at best remain
at current depressed economic levels. High oil prices could result in higher
inflation leading to increased interest rates and lower economic growth. These
factors have led to pressure on some commodity prices which could persist in the
next financial year. A sustained global economic recovery will depend on a
continued improvement in consumer demand in Western economies and sustained high
growth rates in China.
While Metmar has maintained its cautious stance against this economic scenario,
