The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 August 2011. 1.2 Financial review The revenue for the six months is on course to be comparable to the revenue for the financial year 2011. The issue to highlight is the reduction in operating costs. Despite this improvement the group still suffered a loss of R2.845 million. The loss is due to the cost of down sizing of the group rolling into the first quarter of the current financial year. The full benefit of the cost savings only materialised during the second quarter, which showed the divisions returning to profitability. The first quarter of 2012 accounted for 70% of the reported loss for the review period. The group announced contracts being awarded to the group during the release of the 2011 Financial Statements. These contracts took longer than expected to be implemented as customers used the December closure to install the security, access control and Fire detection systems. The full benefits of these contracts were only realised from December onwards. The company has completed the circular for the purchase of the I to I assets which have been posted to shareholders. Shareholders will be required to vote in respect of the transaction at the General Meeting on 8 June 2012. 1.3 Operational review The Zaptronix group of companies operates three businesses: Zaptronix Metering, Duo Tracking Services and the Site Risk Solutions (the I to I assets) The economic recovery has seen an increase in prospects as well as the conversion of prospects into transactions; however the margins remain under pressure. The cost cutting measures introduced during the last year continues to provide the group not only with lower costs but also with improved pricing for the group`s products and services. 1.4 Future prospects As the I to I transaction has taken much longer than hoped or anticipated the successful conclusion will allow management to focus on the business fully and apply the energy to grow and exploit the product and service offerings for the benefit of all the stakeholders. It will also allow management to finally integrate the operations which will also result in further efficiencies and savings. The group is well placed to benefit from the opportunities created by the implementation of the Electricity Regulation Act. Although the act has not been implemented, interest in the group`s meters and meter services have grown and improved sales have been recorded. Due to this expected growth Zaptronix has further extended its technology partnerships and distributor relationships to cope with the increase in demand for the meters. The group continues to invest in a broader range of tracking equipment and continues to upgrade its application and systems which will allow Zaptronix to return to profitability as a niche player in this industry. 1.5 Dividend No dividend has been proposed.
