COMMENTARY
The condensed consolidated statements have been prepared by W Voigt, the group’s financial director.

1. Basis of preparation
The reviewed condensed consolidated statements have been prepared in accordance with the framework 
concepts and the measurement and recognition requirements of International Financial Reporting 
Standards (“IFRS”), the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices 
Committee and the Financial Reporting Pronouncements as issued by the Financial Reporting Standards 
Council and the information as required by IAS 34: Interim Financial Reporting, the Listings 
Requirements of the Johannesburg Stock Exchange and the Companies Act of South Africa (Act 71 of 
2008), as amended. The principal accounting policies, which comply with IFRS, have been consistently 
applied in all material respects in the current and comparative years.

It should be noted that, as previously announced, JSE and shareholder approval or shareholder 
ratification may be required for certain acquisitions and disposals, which have been properly 
accounted for in accordance with the Companies Act and IFRS in the above results or in prior years. 
This will be sought in due course once the JSE Investigations Division finalises its investigation and 
advises the company that it may proceed with its circular to shareholders through the JSE Regulation 
Division.  Irrevocable undertakings to approve the transactions had been secured from the requisite 
percentage of votes of shareholders at the time of the transactions.  The shareholder register has not 
changed substantially from the date of such undertakings.

The results for the year ended 31 December 2013 have been reviewed by Nolands Incorporated and their 
unmodified report is available for inspection at the company’s registered office.


2.Overview 
GROSS REVENUE                    81%        up
TOTAL ASSETS                    -20%     down
NET ASSETS                      -17%     down
NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE      -17%     down
HEADLINE EARNINGS               -79%     down

3.Commentary on results
2013 has been a year of consolidation with substantial losses incurred in the disposal of 
underperforming or not growing assets. During the period under review, the operating costs increased 
by 41% and the cost of sales and financing costs decreased by 27% and 26% respectively.

The increase in the operating costs is mainly due to impairments of R24,724 million included there-in. 
The above resulted in the decrease in earnings.

The Group incurred a R17,389 million loss on the disposal of several subsidiaries which were either 
non performing or were based on short term leases with over capitalised rentals and non sustainable 
operating cost structures.

The manufacturing segment continued to make losses due to substantial downtime as a result of the 
breakdown of the charcoal plant and the refurbishment requirements.  However after July 2013, the 
plant produced in excess of 75 tons of activated carbon and has a take-off agreement on the entire 
production of wood based and coconut based activated carbon.

The revenue has increased mainly due to risk and performance fees being charged and growth in rental 
income.

4.Segment Analysis
For management purposes, the group is organised into major operating divisions - Leisure, Industrial, 
Commercial and Retail, a Head Office and Manufacturing. The divisions are the basis on which the group 
reports its segment information. All segment assets are located in South Africa.

The directors have decided to include the assets and liabilities and the results from the Investment 
property - industrial segment that relate to the manufacturing process in the manufacturing segment.  
The comparative figures have been restated accordingly.

Revenue of R264 210 was earned from outside South Africa and all the revenue is earned from external 
customers.

5 Restatement of comparative period
Management has decided that, in order to more appropriately reflect the fact that the non-controlling 
shareholders of a subsidiary have taken responsibility to recapitalise the subsidiary company to the 
extent of the losses it suffered without a change in their voting rights or beneficial shareholding in 
the same company, to restate the comparative period.  This has resulted in the addition of an 
additional classification in equity capital and reserves that deals with the group’s share of the 
equity contribution made.

This restatement has no effect on the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

6 Property, plant and equipment

As previously announced, the group disposed of the following properties during the period under 
review: Austin Crossing Building, Bishops Court Building, Chambers Building - Ground Floor, Chambers 
building - Floors 2 and 3, Flextronics Building, Milestone Place Building and Property 259 Building.

Manufacturing
The recoverable amount of this cash-generating unit is determined based on a value-in-use calculation 
which uses cash flow projections based on financial budgets approved by the directors and a discount 
rate of 15% (before tax) per annum.

Cash flow projections during the budget period are based on the same expected gross margins that are 
achieved at similar plants, situated world-wide, producing activated carbon. The directors are of the 
opinion that any reasonably possible change in the key assumptions on which recoverable amount is 
based would not cause the aggregate carrying amount to exceed the aggregate recoverable amount of the 
cash-generating unit.

The key assumptions used relating to the recoverability due to value in use are:

– The economy will continue to grow, albeit at a slow pace and that there will be no major recession 
in the next five years

– Management has projected the cash flow over a five year period.  No growth rate was used to 
extrapolate the cash flow projections beyond this period.

– Production of activated carbon would be increased up to 200 tonnes per month based on current 
capacity.

– Overheads are expected to increase by 10% per year.

In order to secure the acquisition of certain subsidiaries, Bonatla purchased a non-controlling 
shareholding in the Investment Property Holding Companies from certain investors.

The shareholdings in the three Investment Property Holding Companies vary between 5.17% and 17.6%. The 
directors are of the opinion that the investments are fairly valued and that no further fair value 
adjustment is required.

The fair value of the investments is based on the net asset value of the property holding companies.

by acquiring a 25% stake from a non-controlling shareholder and the balance of the increase as a 
result of exercising a rights issue.

The loan has been included in trade and other receivables in 2012.

A non-refundable deposit relating to the acquisition of 200 000 m2 of bulk land and containing two 
buildings thereon, has been approved by the shareholders. The transfer of the 200 000 m2 of bulk land, 
and buildings thereon, has been held up by litigation relating to the zoning and to the Environmental 
Impact Assessment (“EIA”). Once the litigation has been resolved, the R50 000 000 will be transferred 
from Deposits to Investment Properties.      
The directors are confident that there will be a satisfactory resolution to the pending litigation and 
that the transaction will proceed. Consequently, no impairment is required.

Trade receivables      
Trade receivables consist of rentals, sales of charcoal products and services rendered which are 
invoiced out.  These will be recovered in the normal course of business. The fair value of the trade 
receivables is deemed to be the same as the carrying value.      
The ageing of the trade receivables is as follows:      
Current and 30 days                                                       498                       364
60 days                                                                    77                        24
Older than 60 days                                                      8,806                       131

Trade receivables which are less than 60 days past due are not considered to be impaired. All the 
above amounts are considered recoverable and no impairment is required.

For most of the rentals, one month’s rental deposit has been given together with surety from the legal 
entity/person who signs the lease agreement as the tenant.

Included in the debtors with the ageing greater than 60 days is a receivable of R8 200 000 which will 
be settled as part of the acquisition of Ruitersvlei Holdings (Pty) Limited.  Should this not occur 
prior to 31 December 2014, this becomes payable on demand.

The majority of the other debtors with ageing greater than 60 days, have paid, after the year-end, 
their balances owing.

The company will look to appoint additional independent non-executive directors, although this remains challenging whilst the company remains suspended on the JSE.  The company continues to work pro-actively with the JSE to respond to all issues raised.

28 Contingent liabilities
Various litigations, which are being defended by Bonatla, have been instituted against Bonatla and the dates of the legal cases still have to be set down. There has been no change in the amounts of the contingent liabilities, relating to ongoing litigation cases, from 2012 to 2013.

29 Future prospects
The local and international real estate markets will continue to be under pressure during the forthcoming year including increased pressure on interest rates, rental levels, increases in operating cost structures and investment yields. Against this background, the company will continue to focus on growing the portfolio through value enhancing acquisitions from investment and development properties.

2014 and 2015 are expected to see Bonatla realising its objective of increasing its net assets and become the African investment and development arm of a global investment group.
