TRADING STATEMENT


In compliance with paragraph 3.4 of the Listings
Requirements of the JSE Limited, a listed company is
required to publish a trading statement as soon as they
are satisfied that a reasonable degree of certainty
exists, that the financial results for the next period to
be reported on are likely to vary by more than 20% from
the previous corresponding period.


Shareholders are reminded of the R11m profit after tax
reported for the six months to 30 September 2012. The
months thereafter included the Marikana tragedy, a
transport strike, and labour unrest in the mining
industry, together with disruption to steel supplies.
Notwithstanding these challenges the company has
significantly increased sales volumes and is currently
experiencing favourable trading conditions. The combined
results will however reflect a reduction of more than 20%
in EPS and HEPS for the year to March 2013 when compared
with the 2012 financial year.


The information in this Trading Statement has not been
reviewed or reported on by the company`s auditors.
