UPDATED FINANCIAL EFFECTS
Shareholders are referred to the announcement released on SENS on 21 October 2013 wherein
shareholders were advised that the special resolution would be presented for consideration at a separate
general meeting instead of at the company’s annual general meeting. Accordingly, this has resulted in an
update to the pro forma financial effects which were presented in the announcement of 25 September
2013, as set out in the table below.
It is assumed that the Izingwe repurchase had occurred on 1 June 2012, for purposes of the pro
forma statement of comprehensive income, and on 31 May 2013, for purposes of the pro forma statement
of financial position.
The pro forma financial effects set out below have been prepared for illustrative purposes only to provide
information on how the Izingwe repurchase may have impact on the audited historical financial results of
OneLogix for the twelve months ended 31 May 2013. Due to their nature, the pro forma financial effects
may not fairly present OneLogix`s financial position, changes in equity, results of operations or cash
flows after the Izingwe repurchase.
The pro forma financial effects are the responsibility of the directors of OneLogix and have been reported
on by the independent reporting accountants whose report is provided in the circular.
The pro forma financial effects of the Izingwe repurchase on the group`s basic earnings per share, diluted
earnings per share, headline earnings per share, diluted headline earnings per share, net asset value per
share and tangible net asset value per share are as follows:
Unadjusted before Pro forma after Percentage
the Izingwe the Izingwe change (%)
repurchase (cents) repurchase
(cents)
Earnings per share 29.0 31.0 6.9
Diluted earnings per share 28.3 30.1 6.4
Headline earnings per share 25.1 26.5 5.6
Diluted headline earnings per share 24.5 25.8 5.3
Net asset value per share 129.5 115.0 (11.2)
Tangible net asset value per share 100.1 82.2 (17.9)
Weighted number of shares in issue
(excluding BEE shares accounted for
as treasury shares) (000's) 231 595 207 845 (10.3)
Diluted weighted number of shares in
issue (excluding BEE shares accounted
for as treasury shares) (000's) 231 258 207 508 (10.0)
Shares in issue at year end (excluding
BEE shares accounted for as treasury
shares) (000's) 225 658 201 908 (10.5)
Notes and assumptions to the pro forma financial effects:
1. The figures in the “Unadjusted before the Izingwe repurchase” column have been extracted, without
adjustment, from the group’s audited financial statements for the year ended 31 May 2013.
2. The figures in the “Pro forma after the Izingwe repurchase” column are based on the Izingwe
repurchase of 23 750 000 OneLogix shares being at a price of 250.88 cents per share (comprising 250
cents plus 5.88 cents per share of interest to 13 December 2013 when the repurchase is assumed to be
implemented less 5 cents dividend per share which, in terms of the share purchase agreement, does not
accrue to the seller, as the seller is receiving interest), or R59 584 000 in aggregate (“the repurchase
consideration”). This results in a decrease in cash and cash equivalents by R60 039 967, being the R59
584 000 repurchase consideration and R 455 967 in respect of transaction costs of the Izingwe
repurchase, both of which are not recurring items.
3. The repurchase consideration and expenses of the Izingwe repurchase are assumed to be settled from
existing cash resources and available short-term facilities of the group.
4. For purposes of adjusting earnings, net finance costs have been increased, at the average rate of
interest earned and interest paid on the available cash resources and available short term borrowings,
respectively, being the prime rate less 158 basis points per annum, as a result of the cash outflow of the
repurchase consideration.
5. Taxation is assumed to be reduced by R1 164 063 resulting from the reduction in finance income and
increase in finance costs.
6. Following the implementation of the Izingwe repurchase and the subsequent cancellation and delisting
of the Izingwe shares, the company will have 207 845 235 shares in issue.
7. Transaction costs of R455 967 have been set-off against retained earnings in terms of IAS 32:
Financial Instruments: Presentation.
8. All adjustments are expected to have a continuing effect.
