COMMENTARY

POINTS OF INTEREST TO THE CORRESPONDING PERIOD LAST YEAR

- Net profit after tax has increased by 19%
- Net asset value has increased from 493,8 cents to
  523,6 cents per share
- Group turnover is up by 8%

EXECUTIVE CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT
We are pleased to report a strong start to the 2013 financial year.

The re-launch of the well-known Molyslip brand has so far had an enthusiastic reception
from the market. The local industrial and consumer/automotive divisions are showing positive
signs of improvement.

We are excited to report a 12% increase in our international sales. Likewise the decrease in
administration costs also contributed positively to our results. This good news resulted in an
increase in NPAT of 19% over the corresponding period last year.

The increase in interest-bearing liabilities was brought about by the timing difference between
the production and completion of a very large international division order.

There have been no material related party transactions during the period under review.

SEGMENTAL ANALYSIS
The special lubricants and allied chemicals division has performed exceptionally well showing
a 15% increase in its profit from operations compared to the corresponding period last year.

This was mainly due to an improvement in our international markets.

The metal powders segment showed a decline of 38% in its profit from operations to the
corresponding period last year. This was mainly due to difficult world-wide market conditions
which led to a 10% decline in revenue.
