GROUP PROFILE
Sea Kay currently operates in Gauteng the Western Cape and in Kwa-zulu Natal in
the construction of mass housing through Sea Kay Engineering Services (Pty)
Limited ("Sea Kay Engineering") and Sea Kay Engineering Services Western Cape
(Pty) Limited ("Sea Kay Western Cape") and Sea Kay Engineering Services Kwa-Zulu
Natal (Pty) Ltd. ("Sea Kay KZN").
TRADING CONDITIONS
Although Government spending on infrastructure generally declined since the
large world cup and related projects during 2008 to 2010, the smaller
construction companies have seen good investment by Government in the low cost
housing sector. The GAP market (affordable housing for the household income
group of between R3,501 to R10,000 per month) has seen some improvement and the
growing demand is assisted by banks that are slowly easing the lending criteria.
The backlog of and need for housing in the low cost and Gap market is widely
accepted to be growing and in the region of approximately 2 million and 500 to
800 thousand units respectively. These factors will benefit the Company going
forward provided that access to proper working capital can be achieved as set
out in more detail hereunder.
OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW
The Company maintained turnover similar to the prior comparable period which is
still not adequate. During the period under review, operations and offices have
been established in KwaZulu-Natal and some projects have commenced. Due to the
lack of proper working capital those projects could not yet be accelerated to
acceptable levels. In Gauteng the same problem occurred and a working capital
injection is required to accelerate to increase turnover to reach profit levels.
In the Western Cape, however, the subsidiary benefitted from the restructuring
process to operate independently from the rest of the group and grew to
acceptable levels reaching a profit level of R1,7 million during the period.
Internal focus will be turned to this subsidiary to ensure this profitable trend
can be extended and grown to assist the other regions to follow suit. Overall
the Groups` performance for the period continued to be below expectations, the
main reason still being the lack of proper working capital. The positive
operational performance in the Western Cape indicated the way to recovery but it
would need to be complemented with adequate working capital to ensure the
current pipeline in Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal can be accelerated to profitable
levels.
LONEROCK
Due to the fact that the Group suffered from extremely slow payments from
Government during late 2007 to the end of 2009 as well as the completion of two
unprofitable projects during the same period, the Lonerock vendors could not be
paid in full and the Lonerock investment on the balance sheet had to be disposed
of, after the options to repurchase their Lonerock shares have been exercised.
Those actions conclude this chapter in the Company and in line with the
restructuring and turn-around strategy previously announced the company will now
refocus its efforts to the new initiatives partially successfully completed to
replace and remedy the negative financial effect left with the departure of
Lonerock from the Group. More detail about the initiatives is discussed
hereunder.
PROSPECTS
Management is looking to stabilize the company and create sustainability through
an increased pipeline of work supported by adequate working capital. Government
spending on housing and housing infrastructure is expected to grow aggressively
during the next two years as the public protest about the lack of service
delivery is reaching alarming levels supported by Governments` expressed
intention to address the backlog in the low cost and GAP market sector. In line
with the turn-around strategy management also recognised the need to diversify
operations to commercial and private sector developments to ensure that the
dependency of the Company on Government related work is decreased. With this
diversification management is confident that Government` housing and
infrastructure initiatives can better be assisted while the overall risk profile
of the Company will decrease accordingly.
Post half year end the Company concluded an agreement to acquire a large
commercial and residential property development in the private sector subject to
all the conditions and regulatory approvals as set out in the previous
announcement dated 18 April 2012. This transaction represents the first step
towards achieving a sustainable pipeline outside of Government work and will
substantially increase the net asset value of the balance sheet. The company
also announced the negotiations with two other property development owners
regarding the acquisition of an upmarket retirement village development in Cape
Town and a lifestyle property development in KwaZulu-Natal. The aim is to
increase and complement the larger property development already secured with a
short to medium term commercial and residential pipeline of work in both the
property development and the construction sectors.
Once the need for adequate working capital has been satisfied through the fund
raising process described hereunder management is confident that the pipeline of
Government and commercial private sector work can be complemented by selective
contracts across border into neighboring countries.
RESTRUCTURING OF THE COMPANY
The formal fund raising process announced previously will, once achieved, result
in the finalisation of the restructuring process. Management is aware of all the
challenges regarding the going concern and is confident to manage the Company
through the fund raising process to achieve sustainability and profitability in
all the various subsidiaries.
GOING CONCERN
The continued uncertainties identified by management and alluded to in the
auditor`s audit opinion about the going concern is carefully considered and
addressed through the restructuring process involving the fund raising exercise
and the operational capability of the Company to address the concern. The
Company will base its` operational activities on the success achieved in the
Western Cape to ensure that stakeholder value is properly protected through
efficient management of resources and successful completion of current projects
with the view that the raising of funding through debt and equity can be
achieved against the prospects of the increased value on the net asset value of
the balance sheet through the property transaction already concluded.
DIVIDENDS
No dividend will be paid in respect of the period under review.
FINANCIAL PREPARATION
The interim results for the six months ended 31 December 2011 have been prepared
in accordance with and contain the information required by IAS 34: Interim
Financial Reporting, International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), AC500
Standards as issued by the Accounting Practices Board or its successor, the
Companies Act no 61 of 1973 and the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited.
The accounting policies applied, which are in terms of IFRS, are consistent with
those of the annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2011, as
described in those financial statements
REVIEW OPINION
Nexia SAB&T has issued a qualified review opinion on the results for the period
ended 31 December 2011, which opinion is available for inspection at the
company`s registered office.
The review opinion contains the following paragraph:
"The Group reported a headline loss attributable to the owners of the parent of
R 18,268,000 for the period ended. The liabilities of the Group exceed its
assets by R 101,048,000 and significant pressures on liquidity have been
experienced during the period under review.
The ability of the Group to honour its commitments and provide adequate working
capital to sustain its operations are dependent on a combination of factors
including the successful outcome of negotiations, procuring additional funds for
working capital and/or refinancing certain operations as well as a return to
profitability.
The uncertain outcome of these events indicate material uncertainties which cast
doubt on the Groups ability to continue as a going concern and the Group may
therefore not be in a position to realise its assets and discharge its
responsibilities in the normal course of business."
