CONDENSED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS AND QUARTER ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2013, CHANGES TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
AND FURTHER CAUTIONARY ANNOUNCEMENT
Commentary
GoGlobal has its primary listing on the Bermuda Stock Exchange ("BSX") and a secondary listing on the Alternative
Exchange of the JSE Limited ("AltX"). During April 2013, the company made an offer to invited investors to
subscribe for a further 250 000 shares ("the private placement") and applied for a secondary listing of the
company's issued share capital on the AltX in South Africa. The private placement was fully subscribed for and
GoGlobal listed on the AltX on 29 April 2013.
GoGlobal was established with the intention of investing in high yielding real estate companies and assets with the
prospect of an income return to shareholders, coupled with that of capital appreciation. Based on the support that the
promoters have received in their previous endeavours and their access to the South African ("SA") property investor
base, the promoters consider that the company will present an attractive opportunity to SA investors and that the
secondary listing on the AltX will enhance GoGlobal's ability to raise capital.
Further cautionary announcement
Shareholders are referred to the cautionary announcement published on SENS on 30 April 2013 regarding the
potential acquisition of properties in Germany and the United Kingdom (“UK”) and are advised that discussions in
this regard are ongoing. Accordingly, shareholders are advised to continue exercising caution when dealing in their
GoGlobal shares.
Changes to the board of directors
All of the directors were re-elected to office at the company's annual general meeting held on 25 September 2013,
other than Sharon Ward, who was not available for re-election and was replaced by David Brown.
Results for the six months ended 30 September 2013
In line with its investment policy, GoGlobal invested approximately 50% of the capital raised since incorporation in
a portfolio of listed European and UK REIT's. The balance of the capital raised has been retained in cash.
The company's portfolio performed well during the period, earning a dividend yield of 2.6% for the six months.
Coupled with capital appreciation of 8.6%, total Sterling returns on the REIT portfolio amount to 11.2% for the
period. Whilst a portion of the capital appreciation represents a reversal of mark-to-market write-downs taken during
the course of the previous financial period, the portfolio has earned total returns of 7.8% since acquisition in late
February 2013. The net positive returns are reflective of a more positive sentiment in underlying real estate markets
during the course of the six month period, particularly in the UK.
Despite good investment returns, given the relatively small size of the company's invested capital, the company was
close to break-even for the period after taking account of operating costs of £23,694. The basic loss per ordinary
share for the period was 0.16 pence per share.
Within the six months to September 2013, the company incurred a loss of £1 531 during the quarter to June 2013, as
previously reported, and a nominal net profit of £783, after all costs, during the second quarter to September 2013.
The improvement in earnings in the second quarter is as a result of improved performance of its investment portfolio,
despite higher operating costs during the quarter.
Contingent liability
The contingent liability as disclosed in notes 11 and 13 to the unaudited financial statements for the period from
incorporation to 31 March 2013 remains unchanged. In addition, the promoters of the company have underwritten an
amount of £600 000, in aggregate, to cover acquisition costs that may be incurred by the company, prior to the
completion of a further capital raising, in undertaking a due diligence of the portfolio detailed under the section
headed "further cautionary announcement". To date, the company has engaged lawyers, valuers and other
professional advisors for the purposes of such due diligence. To the extent that the company successfully completes a
further capital raising for the purposes of acquisition of such portfolio or part thereof, the costs will be settled by the
company as part of such acquisition.

Financial notes
These condensed unaudited financial statements for the six months and quarter ended 30 September 2013 are
prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement principles of International Financial Reporting
Standards, the requirements of IAS 34: Interim Financial Reporting, the JSE Listings Requirements and the BSX
Listing Rules. The accounting policies and methods of computation are consistent with those applied in the
unaudited financial statements for the period from 26 October 2012 to 31 March 2013. These condensed unaudited
financial statements have been prepared under the supervision of the company’s financial director P Goetsch CA
(SA).
In terms of Bermuda company law, audited annual financials must be laid before shareholders and an auditor
appointed at the annual general meeting. The BSX has waived the requirement for an audit for the period from date
of incorporation to 31 March 2013, the company's financial year-end, which waiver was approved by the shareholder
and the directors in a resolution passed on 11 March 2013. The next audit of company will be for the period from
incorporation to 31 March 2014. These condensed financial statements have not been reviewed or reported on by the
company's external auditors.
The directors have reviewed the company's activities and having regard to the level of liquid resources in relation to
the company's operating expense base, have reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to
continue in existence for the foreseeable future. These condensed unaudited financial statements have thus been
prepared on a going concern basis.
These condensed unaudited financial statements were approved by the board on 30 October 2013.
