GROUP PROFILE
Winhold Limited ("Winhold") is a holding company with its main investments being
wholly owned subsidiaries Gundle Limited ("Gundle") and Inmins Limited
("Inmins").
Gundle comprises of two plastics manufacturing and distribution operations in
Gauteng and one in Swaziland, as well as a further five distribution centres in
the main coastal cities, Lowveld and Bloemfontein. Gundle manufactures
polyethylene bags, construction sheeting, consumer and industrial packaging,
agricultural film and dam linings and distributes to the agricultural, chemical,
construction, food processing, industrial and consumer markets.
Inmins comprises 18 strategically located operations (mainly trading) servicing
the mining and industrial sectors with a wide range of consumable and
maintenance products, and includes divisions specialising in hose, high pressure
mining backfill systems, chain and sprocket systems and conveyor belting.
REVIEW OF RESULTS
The group results are significantly better than the second half of last year
with profits of R9,8 million compared to a breakeven result. Market conditions
remained weak and previously reported performance enhancements are still in
progress. The Group`s results are 40% down on the first 6 months of last year
Borrowings increased to fund investments in inventories for large contracts and
to improve service levels to customers in the face of fierce competition and to
offset plastic raw material shortages from a key plastics supplier.
The first R21.2 million repayment of the long term bank loans was made in
February. The balance of the R28.8 million of loans repaid related to fixed
asset finance repayments. R17.7 million of unlisted investments were redeemed
during the period and the residual outstanding were restructured so that the
Group received the full outstanding preference dividend in February, and, as a
result, R8.7 million was deferred to future periods and is disclosed as
"interest free borrowings".
OPERATIONAL REVIEWS
Gundle
A weak consumer economy, fierce competition, an inability to pass on price
increases, and supply problems with raw material polymers resulted in customers
driving prices down which negatively affected the Gundle manufacturing
operations. The Gundle businesses of Geosynthetics and API Springs have,
however, performed better than expectation and the comparative period`s losses
in Swaziland have been reduced.
Operational management have committed to a strategy to recover lost margins,
reduce costs and improve factory efficiencies which are starting to show
positive results.
Inmins
The Inmins Mining and Industrial branches also performed above expectation in
the period under review despite the strikes at key customers and the weak
consumer market. The value add division did not meet budgeted sales volumes
which negatively affected the group`s results.
PROSPECTS
The Group has already implemented several strategic and operational initiatives
to address the negatives of the last 12 months and the benefits of these are
already being seen. The Group does not see a strengthening in the market in the
next 12 months and benefits will be derived from cost cutting and new business
areas (such as increased exports to sub-Sahara Africa).
Gundle
Polymer raw material supply issues appear to have been resolved and new import
channels provide for alternative supply sources. Staff training and up-
skilling, cost reductions and factory efficiency improvements will continue to
improve cost efficiencies but a recovery in the market is not expected in the
next year.
Inmins
New products being rolled out will add to the product offering and better
utilisation of the infrastructure footprint.
BASIS OF PREPARATION AND ASSURANCE
These condensed consolidated preliminary Group results have been prepared in
accordance with the recognition and measurement criteria of International
Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and the AC500 standards required by
International Accounting Standard 34 (" IAS 34"), and in compliance with the

"the Listings Requirements" ). The accounting policies are consistent with those
used in the prior year. The preparation of the financial statements has been
supervised by the CFO, Mr GM Scrutton CA(SA). These interim financial statements
have not been audited or reviewed by the group`s auditors. The results for the
year ended 30 September 2011 were audited and the auditor`s unqualified audit
report is included in the Annual Financial statements distributed to
Shareholders` in December 2011.
CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
The Group subscribes to the value of good corporate governance and is committed
to continued implementation of the recommendations of the King III Report and
the Listings Requirements. The Group continues to endeavour to conduct its
business in accordance with the principles of accountability, transparency and
integrity.
