COMMENTARY
As anticipated in the interim report, the group's retail segment continued to find 
trading conditions difficult in the second six months. 

The group's revenue for the year decreased by 10.7% to R484.0 million 
(2012: R541.7 million) and the gross profit decreased by 14.5% to R243.3 million 
(2012: R284.4 million). Group operating costs increased by 1.8% to R265.5 million 
(2012: R260.8 million) and included a R3.1 million retrenchment provision incurred 
as a result of the reorganising of the retail business. 

The above resulted in the group's operating profit decreasing from R26.6 million to 
a loss of R19.1 million. The loss after tax amounted to R9.5 million (2012: profit of 
R23.8 million). In line with performance, headline earnings per share decreased by 
138.3% resulting in a headline loss per share of 47.4 cents, and the earnings per 
share decreased by 139.8% resulting in a loss per share of 46.3 cents.

Retail
The turnover in the Queenspark retail segment was R474.4 million (2012: R530.6 million),
a decrease of 10.6% on last year. The gross profit margin decreased to 51.3% 
(2012 53.6%) mainly due to product inflation pressures resulting from the weakening of 
the Rand. The retail segment operating profit decreased by 151.3% resulting in loss 
of R14.7 million for the year (2012: profit of 28.7 million). 

Property
As noted in the interim report and in line with the business strategy, the development
of the Rex Trueform Office Park in Salt River continued during the year. The segment 
made a small operating loss for the year (R0.2 million) mainly due to higher operating
costs. Capital expenditure of R17.0 million was incurred in the segment during the 
current year, of which R16.6 million relates to the Rex Trueform Office Park. 

Prospects
Retail
The outlook for retail sales continues to be impacted by the slowdown in the growth 
of economy, consumer debts levels, tight lending standards and rising living costs. 
Ongoing weakness in the Rand exchange rate against the US Dollar will continue to add 
inflationary pressure to the cost of merchandise. International brands continue to 
enter the local clothing retail market, intensifying industry competition. 

Against this back-drop, the company's retail segment will remain under pressure in 
the 2014 financial year. Certain strategic initiatives initiated during the year 
are expected to positively impact the year ahead. Further initiatives are planned and 
will be implemented during the forthcoming year. 

Property
The main focus of this segment relates to the development of the Rex Trueform Office 
Park. The main construction activities are expected to be completed during the 2014 
financial year, where-after substantial tenant occupancy is expected. 
 
Dividend
The board of directors is proposing to shareholders that the dividend on the ordinary 
and "N" ordinary shares be kept at 61 cents per share (2012: 61 cents per share). 
Shareholders will be asked to consider and approve the directors' dividend proposal 
at the annual general meeting of the company to be held on 14 November 2013.

An announcement detailing the terms of the dividend declaration will be made 
immediately following the annual general meeting.

Any reference to the future financial performance included in this statement has not 
been reviewed and reported on by the company's external auditors and does not 
constitute an earnings forecast.
