COMMENTARY
The first half of the financial year reflected continued growth on the prior period, although monthly results remain
inconsistent. Year-on-year growth was achieved in both casino and hotel revenues assisted by the merger and acquisition
activity undertaken as part of the groups growth strategy.
Tsogo Sun has continued to allocate capital in terms of this strategy and accordingly has invested R1.3 billion during
the period as follows:
-  acquired an additional 8.7% effective interest in Tsogo Sun KwaZulu-Natal Proprietary Limited in May 2013 at a cost
of R363 million with the resultant shareholding in Suncoast being 98.7%;
- completed the redevelopment of the Hemingways casino in East London; 
-  spent R87 million during the period on the R206 million expansion of the Emnotweni casino, which includes the
construction of an expanded casino floor, additional gaming positions, additional covered parking, a conference and eventing
area and restaurants. The project is expected to be completed by the end of November 2013;
-  commenced construction of the US$30 million expansion of Southern Sun Maputo including the addition of 110 rooms
and conference facilities, the expansion of the existing restaurant, lobby and back-of-house facilities and the
refurbishment of the existing 158 rooms;
-  completed the acquisition of a 75.5% stake in Ikoyi Hotels Limited in Lagos, Nigeria on 29 June 2013 for US$50.6
million and the re-financing of US$19.7 million debt in the business. The property was previously managed by the group on
behalf of the third-party owners;
- acquired shares in various properties during the period for an aggregate R61 million;
-  acquired additional effective interests from minorities and in associates in various cinemas and hotels during the
period for an aggregate R40 million;
-  commenced the expansion project at Blackrock casino including an additional 50 slot machines and three tables and
an expansion of the Garden Court Blackrock hotel by an additional 40 rooms;
-  commenced construction on the R560 million expansion and redevelopment of the Silverstar casino which includes
additional dining options, an outdoor events area, cinemas, ten-pin bowling alley, laser tag games, an expanded and enhanced
casino floor and parking; and
-  commenced the R630 million refurbishment and expansion of the Gold Reef City casino and Theme Park which will
include an increased casino offering, cinemas and additional restaurants at the casino and additional food and beverage
outlets and improved access systems at the Theme Park with an improved linkage to the casino complex and an expansion of the
Apartheid Museum. 
In addition to these acquisitions and expansion projects, the group also invested over R400 million on maintenance
capex group-wide ensuring our assets remain best in class. 
Total income for the six months of R5.2 billion ended 9% above the prior period with a 6% growth in gaming win
assisted by a 17% growth in hotel rooms revenue and a 21% growth in food and beverage revenue. Earnings before interest, income
tax, depreciation, amortisation, property rentals, long-term incentives and exceptional items (Ebitdar) at R2.0
billion for the period reflected a 9% increase on the prior six months.
The overall group Ebitdar margin of 38.2% is flat on the prior period. As previously reported, the underlying
operations of the group remain highly geared towards the South African consumer (in gaming) and the corporate market (in hotels)
with both sectors still experiencing difficult economic conditions and increased administered costs (electricity, water
and property rates). The results for the year to date continue to reflect the growth potential of the group should
these sectors of the South African economy continue to improve.
Gaming win grew by 6% for the six months ended 30 September 2013 over the prior period with growth in slots win at 3%
and tables win growth at 14%.
Gauteng recorded provincial growth in gaming win of 4.1% for the six months ended 30 September 2013 over the prior
period. Gaming win growth of 5.3% was achieved at Montecasino, 7.5% at Gold Reef City and 8.2% at Silverstar. 
KwaZulu-Natal provincial gaming win grew by 3.4% for the six months ended 30 September 2013 over the prior period.
Gaming win growth of 5.5% was achieved at Suncoast Casino and Entertainment World and 8.1% at Blackrock casino with Golden
Horse casino flat on the prior period. 
Mpumalanga reported growth in provincial gaming win of 5.3% for the six months ended 30 September 2013 over the prior
period. The Ridge casino in Emalahleni and the Emnotweni casino in Nelspruit reported growth in gaming win of 4.7% and
2.1% respectively. 
The Eastern Cape provincial gaming win grew by 8.4% for the six months ended 30 September 2013. Hemingways reported
growth in gaming win of 7.2%. 
The Western Cape reported growth in provincial gaming win of 5.1% for the six months ended 30 September 2013. The
Caledon Casino, Hotel and Spa and Garden Route casino in Mossel Bay reported growth of 4.3% and 4.2% respectively while
gaming win at Mykonos casino in Langebaan reduced by 1.3%. 
The Goldfields casino in Welkom in the Free State experienced difficult conditions with growth in gaming win of 3.3%
on the prior period.
Other Gaming division operations consisting of the Sandton Convention Centre, the StayEasy Century City hotel and head
office costs reflected a net loss of R102 million, R12 million adverse to the prior period.
Overall revenue for the Gaming division increased 7% on the prior period to R4.0 billion. Ebitdar improved 6% to R1.6
billion at a margin of 39.8%, 0.4pp below the prior period. 
The hotel industry in South Africa continues to experience a recovery from the dual impact of depressed demand and
oversupply. Overall industry occupancies have improved to 58.8% (2012: 57.7%) for the six months ended 30 September 2013.
As a result of the strong sales and distribution channels and the superior product and service quality available within
the group, Tsogo Sun Hotels continues to achieve an occupancy and rate premium in the segments in which the group
operates.
Trading for the groups South African hotels for the first six months has been more buoyant recording a system-wide
revenue per available room (RevPar) growth of 10% on the prior period due mainly to an increase in average room rates by
10% to R868 with occupancies largely unchanged at 62.5% (2012: 62.6%). Overall revenue for the South African Hotel
division increased 11% on the prior period to R1.0 billion assisted by the inclusion of 54 on Bath and Southern Sun Hyde
Park. Ebitdar improved 15% to R314 million at a margin of 31.1% (2012: 29.9%).
The Offshore division of hotels achieved total revenue for the six months ended 30 September 2013 of R256 million
representing a 43% improvement on the prior period, driven by the acquisition of Southern Sun Ikoyi, effective from July
2013, and the weakening of the Rand against both the US$ and the Euro. Ebitdar (pre-foreign exchange gains) improved 
63% to R75 million. The Rand weakness resulted in a R29 million (2012: R13 million) foreign exchange gain on the 
translation of offshore monetary items.
Combined South African and offshore hotel trading statistics, reflecting the Tsogo Sun group owned hotels and
excluding hotels managed on behalf of third parties, are as follows:

                           30 September    30 September    
                                   2013            2012            
 Occupancy (%)                     62.9            63.6            
 Average room rate (R)              869             759             
 RevPar (R)                         546             483             
 Rooms available (000)           1 940           1 878           
 Rooms sold (000)                1 220           1 195           
 Rooms revenue (Rm)               1 060             908             

The increase in average room rate is positively impacted by the inclusion of Southern Sun Ikoyi from July 2013 and the
effect of the Rand weakness on the offshore portfolio.
Operating expenses including employee costs but excluding exceptional items and long-term incentives for the six
months ended 30 September 2013 increased by 9% on the prior period mainly due to non-organic growth in the business and
increased offshore overheads as a result of the weakening of the Rand against both the US$ and the Euro offset by the foreign
exchange gain on the translation of offshore monetary items and savings initiatives.
Property and equipment rentals for the six months ended 30 September 2013 at R135 million are 17% up on the prior
period mainly due to contractual increases during the year to date and straight line lease provision adjustments.
Amortisation and depreciation for the six months ended 30 September 2013 at R322 million is 3% below the prior period due to a
reassessment of useful lives.
The long-term incentive expense for the six months ended 30 September 2013 at R85 million is R21 million above the
prior period charge and reflects the effect of the increased long-term incentive liability (including dividend adjustments)
due to the Tsogo Sun share price increasing to R25.85 at 30 September 2013.
Exceptional losses for the six months ended 30 September 2013 of R75 million relate mainly to property, plant and
equipment and loan impairments, fair value adjustment to the value of an associate and transaction and retrenchments costs
on the restructure of various departments in the business. Exceptional gains for the prior period of R1 million relate
mainly to settlement fees on termination of the Dubai hotel management contracts net of goodwill, property, plant and
equipment and loan and investment impairments and hotel pre-opening costs.
Net finance costs for the six months ended 30 September 2013 of R182 million are 15% below the prior period as the
cash generated by the group has reduced steady-state borrowing levels despite the acquisitions during the year.
The effective tax rate for the six months ended 30 September 2013 at 28.1% is impacted by non-deductible expenditure
such as casino building depreciation partially offset by non-taxable foreign exchange gains. The comparative effective
tax rate of 28.8% is due to the non-taxable gains referred to above in addition to preference share dividends.
Profit attributable to non-controlling interests of R45 million for the six months ended 30 September 2013 are 22%
below the prior period mainly due to the acquisition of a further 8.7% of Suncoast in May 2012 offset by the Southern Sun
Ikoyi non-controlling interests from July 2013.
Group adjusted headline earnings for the six months ended 30 September 2013 at R0.9 billion are 20% above the prior
period. The number of shares in issue is largely unchanged year-on-year and thus adjusted headline earnings per share
increased by 20% to 81.3 cents per share.
Cash generated from operations for the six months ended 30 September 2013 reduced by 1% to R1.7 billion. Cash flows
utilised for investment activities of R1.7 billion consisted mainly of maintenance capital expenditure and the
acquisitions and investments described above. 
Interest-bearing debt net of cash at 30 September 2013 totalled R4.9 billion, which is R1.3 billion above the 31 March
2013 balance of R3.6 billion, with R568 million paid in dividends to group and non-controlling shareholders in addition
to the investment activities during the six months ended 30 September 2013.
PROSPECTS
The continued improvement in trading performance across the groups operations during the period remains encouraging.
However, the ongoing sustainability of this growth is uncertain due to the inconsistent monthly results. Nevertheless,
the group remains highly cash generative and continues to pursue significant opportunities to invest capital in its
growth strategy.
Following the acquisition of the additional 8.7% effective interest in Tsogo Sun KwaZulu-Natal Proprietary Limited in
May 2013 the group proceeded to acquire the remaining 1.3% of the shares for R37 million in terms of section 124 of the
Companies Act, 71 of 2008 (Companies Act). The transaction was concluded on 31 October 2013 and Suncoast Casino and
Entertainment World is now wholly owned.
The Mpumalanga Gaming board withdrew the previous request for proposal (RFP) for the 4th licence in the province and
have restarted the project with a new RFP. The group has not decided whether to rebid for this licence at this stage.
The group is also exploring a variety of projects, including the expansion of the Suncoast casino and related
entertainment facilities, as well as a number of potential acquisitions which are at various stages.
The potential to bid for the relocation of one of the smaller casinos in the Western Cape to the Cape Metropole
remains an opportunity for the group, although the recent increase in provincial taxes in the Western Cape has made this a
less attractive opportunity than before.
The ability to continue to pursue the groups investment strategy will depend on the final outcome and impact of the
variety of proposed regulatory and tax changes considered by government and will require the successful interaction with
various regulatory bodies including gaming boards, city councils, provincial authorities and national departments. The
group continues to constructively engage with the various spheres of government in this regard.
DIVIDEND
The board of directors has declared an interim gross cash dividend of 29.0 (twenty-nine) cents per share. The dividend
has been declared in South African currency and is payable to shareholders recorded in the register of the company at
close of business on Friday, 13 December 2013. There are no STC credits. The number of ordinary shares in issue at the
date of this declaration is 1 098 058 411 (excluding treasury shares). The dividend will be subject to a local dividend

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1 BASIS OF PREPARATION
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six months ended 30 September 2013 have
been prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement criteria of International Financial Reporting Standards
(IFRS), the presentation and disclosure requirements of IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, the SAICA Financial Reporting
Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee and Financial Reporting Pronouncements as issued by Financial
Reporting Standards Council, the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited and the requirements of the Companies Act of
South Africa. The accounting policies are consistent with IFRS as well as those applied in the most recent audited annual
financial statements as at 31 March 2013 other than as described below. The condensed consolidated interim financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2013, which have
been prepared in accordance with IFRS. This interim report has not been audited or reviewed by the companys auditors.
2 CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES
An amendment to IAS 19 Employee Benefits requires service costs and net interest to be allocated to profit or loss,
while all remeasurements are to be allocated to other comprehensive income. Previously the group allocated the adjustment
to profit or loss by applying the corridor method allowed in IAS 19 which has subsequently been withdrawn. The 31 March
2013 comparative numbers in the balance sheet and 31 March 2012 comparative numbers in the statement of changes in
equity have accordingly been restated. This change in accounting policy only affects these statements as the actuarial
revaluation takes place annually due to the immateriality of the post retirement medical aid liability. The amount of the
post retirement benefit was previously reported as R23 million and the effect of the restatement is a R10 million decrease
to a liability of R13 million (included in non-current provisions in the balance sheet). The amount of non-current
provisions and deferred tax at 31 March 2013 were previously reported as R513 million and R1 446 million, and have been
restated to R503 million and R1 449 million respectively.
Previously IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment permitted spare parts and servicing equipment to be classified as
inventory and the group previously classified all of its operating equipment as inventory. The impact of the amendment to
IAS 16 required the group to perform an assessment on all operating equipment used by the casino and hotel operations to
determine which items are used for more than one period and met the definition of property, plant and equipment. The
amounts of property, plant and equipment and inventory was previously reported in the balance sheet as R9 004 million and
R204 million, and have been restated to R9 123 million and R85 million respectively. Non-cash movements, increase in
working capital and purchase of property, plant and equipment in the cash flow statement were previously reported as R540
million, R145 million and R526 million and have been restated to R548 million, R132 million and R540 million respectively.
The abovementioned changes in accounting policies have been applied retrospectively and have no impact on reported
earnings or earnings per share.
3 BUSINESS COMBINATIONS
The following are the major business combinations concluded during the six months under review:
Acquisition of Hyde Park hotel
With effect from 17 May 2013, the group acquired the Southern Sun Hyde Park hotel, previously a managed property. The
fair value of the consideration paid for the property is R132 million cash. An amount of R65 million was already
transferred before the reporting date (on 1 September 2012 and accounted for under receivables) with the balance transferred
once the sectional title scheme had been registered. Due to the provisional value of the net assets acquired equating to
the consideration paid, no goodwill has arisen on this acquisition.
Acquisition of Ikoyi hotel
With effect from 29 June 2013, the acquisition of 75.5% of the shares of Ikoyi Hotels Limited, the company which owns
the Southern Sun Ikoyi hotel, was concluded. The fair value of the consideration paid for the property is R505 million
(US$50.6 million) cash.
The fair valuations of the net assets acquired through the business combinations are still in progress and are
expected to equate to the fair values of the considerations paid at the dates of acquisition, and therefore no provisional
goodwill has arisen and no intangible assets have been identified on these acquisitions. The acquired businesses
contributed incremental revenues of R68 million and adjusted earnings of R1 million to the group for the period from dates of
control to 30 September 2013. Had the acquisitions occurred on 1 April 2013, group income would have increased by an
additional R47 million and adjusted earnings would have increased by an additional R15 million. These amounts have been
calculated using the groups accounting policies.
The provisional fair value of net assets acquired is as follows:

                                                 2013   
                                                   Rm

      Net liabilities                            (145)  
      Total identifiable net assets acquired      801   
      Less: Non-controlling interests            (164)

      Purchase considerations paid in cash       (637)  
      Provisional goodwill                          -   
            
4 TRANSACTIONS WITH MINORITIES
The following major transaction with non-controlling interests was concluded during the six months under review:
Share buy-back of additional Durban Add-Ventures Limited and Adventure World Management (Pty) Limited minorities
During the prior year an agreement was reached with 89% of the outstanding shareholders in Durban 
Add-Ventures Limited and 100% in Adventure World Management Proprietary Limited for the acquisition of the remaining
outstanding 10% effective interest in Tsogo Sun KwaZulu-Natal Proprietary Limited. During May 2013 the transaction was
implemented as a buy-back of shares, via a scheme of arrangement in Durban Add-Ventures Limited, in accordance with the
Companies Act. An effective 8.7% was acquired at a cost of R363 million with the resultant shareholding in Tsogo Sun
KwaZulu-Natal (Pty) Limited being 98.7%. 
5 CAPITAL COMMITMENTS
The board has committed a total of R2.3 billion for maintenance and expansion capital items at its gaming and hotel
properties. R563 million of the committed capital expenditure has been contracted for.
