COMMENTARY
1.    Review of the results
Awethu Breweries went through what can only be termed a transitional year
for the year ended 30 June 2013. The decision to move into other informal
markets was made in the 2012 year, however the delay in obtaining a liquor
licence and other financial constraints, including the JSE Listings
Requirements that need to be met since Awethu is a listed company, has
resulted in the move taking a lot longer than anticipated.

Your directors are pleased to advise that the turnover for the year
increased by R3,8 million, and the headline loss for the year was reduced
by R570 480 to an operating loss for 2013 of R246 492. The basic headline
loss per share for the year of (0.29) improved on the prior year’s loss of
(0.97)cents per share.

2.    Prospects
The goal of the company is to move into the bottle store business. This is
a business that the directors have expertise and experience in, and have
had a large amount of success therefrom. The first stepping stone, which
has been the hardest, is to get Awethu Breweries registered with its own
liquor licence. Our endeavours to have this done during the year have been
delayed; however, we are optimistic that this licence will be issued
shortly. We are currently considering a number of bottle store
acquisitions, both large and small, over the next two quarters. One
transaction will be concluded during the next month or two, being the
start-up of a bottle store, which will produce a reasonable profit margin
for Awethu. This general forecast has not been reviewed nor reported on by
the Company’s auditors.

3.    Dividends
No dividend has been declared for the year.

4.    Accounting policies / compliance
These Provisional Reviewed financial statements have been prepared by JM
Caddy, in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards
("IFRS") and IAS 34 - Interim Reporting, using accounting policies which
are consistent with those for the year ended 30 June 2013 and the interim
financial statements for the six months to 31 December 2012, and these
comply with the relevant sections of the Companies Act of South Africa and
the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited.
During the year under review the company adopted all of the IFRS and
Interpretations being effective and deemed applicable. None of these had a
material impact.

5.    Independent review by the external auditors.
The Condensed provisional results have been reviewed by our auditors,
Logista CA (SA) Incorporated, which review opinion is open for inspection
at the Company’s registered office. This review opinion contains an
Emphasis of Matter contained in paragraph 6.

6.    Emphasis of Matter

The auditors draw attention to the fact that the company’s total
liabilities exceeded its total assets by R1 927 928 on 30 June 2013. This
condition indicated the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast
significant doubt on the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

7.   Events after reporting date
There are no events to report after the reporting date.

8.   Director changes during the year
Mr Hussein Bismilla resigned from the company on 7 January 2013.
