Preliminary reviewed results of Grand Parade Investments Limited for the year ended 30 June 2014                                          

Introduction

2014 was a year in which GPI took significant strides in implementing its growth strategy.A reduction of 26% 
in adjusted HEPS to 22.5c reflects GPI's commitment to investing in future value and growth. This decline can be 
primarily attributed to significant investment in BURGER KING®.The effect on adjusted HEPS of the R53m loss
incurred in BURGER KING® is material in isolation, but it does not provide the necessary detail with regards to 
the significant gains made in a mere 13 months to establish a world class brand projected to produce significant
long term profits. In arguably a very tough trading environment we managed to establish 18 stores and a 
scalable supply chain. BURGER KING® also managed to contract on favourable terms with landlords and suppliers, 
and this will set a platform for growing BURGER KING®.Interpreting these results is further complicated by the
disclosures required in terms of the various IFRS statements which arise as a result of several impending
transactions and these need to be studied closely to fully appreciate the implications.The company believes 
that Net Asset Value is grossly understated, as was disclosed in the circular relating to the disposals of 
our businesses to Sun International and other parties.The value at tributable to shareholders from these 
transactions will only materialise in the current year (FY15) once all the conditions precedent (to those 
transactions) have been fulfilled.

Segmental analysis

IFRS 8: Operating Segments requires a “management approach” whereby segmental information is presented on the 
same basis as that used for internal reporting purposes to the chief decision maker/makers.  The chief decision 
makers are considered to be the members of the Executive Committee, who review the group’s internal reporting
by industry. 

SunWest International (Pty) Ltd (Sunwest), Grand Casino KZN Investments (Pty) Ltd (Grand Casino KZN), Golden 
Valley Casino, Grand Casino Investments (Pty)Ltd (Grand Casino) and National Casino Manco (Pty) Ltd( National 
Manco) are classified as Casinos.The GPI Slots group is classified as Slots. The Casino and Slots segments have 
been classified as assets held for sale and has been separately classified in the segment analysis below as
discontinued operations. GPI House Properties (Pty) Ltd is classified as Property. Grand Technologies (Pty)
Ltd is classified as IT and BURGER KING® is classified as Food division. All other expenses, finance costs
and overheads are classified as Corporate.

On 1 July 2013, GPI restructured its operations to effectively split the central services costs, classified under
the Services segment in the prior period, between its investment/corporate function and the operating divisions. 
The restructure has impacted how the executive management review the business and as a result the following items
have been reclassified in the current segment report. The results of the operating services costs have been 
reallocated between Slots and the remainder of the services costs have been reallocated to the Corporate 
segment.

The split of the central costs was also applied retrospectively and was allocated on a proportionate basis using 
the head count numbers during the year.  

The segments have been further amended to take into account the assets and liabilities held for sale due to the 
sale of certain investments as discussed below in note 8. The directors do not review the group’s performance by 
geographical sector and therefore no such disclosure has been made. Listed below is a detailed segmental analysis.

Audit opinion

Our auditors, EY (previously known as Ernst & Young), have reviewed the condensed consolidated results contained 
herein. Their reviewed unmodified report is available for inspection at the company's registered office.

Prior year error

During the current year management identified areas of non-compliance in some of the subsidiaries of GPI related 
to the VAT status of suppliers which stemmed from the fact that the legacy accounting system was not configured 
to distinguish between VAT registered vendors and non-VAT registered vendors. The total impact of the error was
quantified and disclosed to the South African Revenue Services as part of the voluntary disclosure programme.
Management has corrected the treatment by way of month end adjustments, until such time as the accounting system
can be reconfigured to distinguish between the VAT status of suppliers.

Notes to the financial statements

Due to GPI entering into sale agreements to sell various investments, the related assets and liabilities have 
been separately disclosed in terms of IFRS5. Non-current Assets held for Sale and Discontinued Operations. 
As these investments represent the Slots and Casino segments it meets the definition of a discontinued 
operation and as a result the statement of comprehensive income comparative figures were restated as 
required by IFRS 5.The effect of these transactions are disclosed in note 8.

The explanations contained in these results have taken the above effect into account.

1.Revenue

Revenue from continuing operations comprises mainly of food sales from GPI's food division, dividends received
from Grindrod Bank Limited ("Grindrod"), IT fees and rental income. Food sales from BURGER KING® amounted to
R127 million for the year.

2.Cost of sales

Costs of sales consists mainly of food costs. Food costs were higher than what is expected due to the
temporary practice of importing of goods.

3.Operating costs

Overall operating costs increased as a result of the additional establishment costs of BURGER KING®.

Included in operating costs are transaction costs to the value of R21 million which have been incurred during
the year. R13 million of these costs relate to our lottery bid, the remainder relates to all other deals 
undertaken during the year. Transactions costs are added back in adjusted headline earnings.

4.Profit from equity-accounted investments

Profit from equity-accounted investments is made up of profits of R0.1 million from Mac Brothers Catering
Equipment (Pty) Ltd (Mac Brothers) for the period since acquiring our 22.2% interest and losses of 
R0.4 million from equity-accounted investments from the food group in respect of the joint venture with
Excellent Meat.

5.Remeasurement of investment

IFRS 3 Business Combinations
During 2012 GPI made an offer to acquire the remaining 41% interest in Grand Casino KZN which GPI did not 
already own. On 20 November 2013 all conditions precedent were met and the deal was concluded. Grand Casino
KZN owns a 24.9% stake in Dolcoast, which in turns owns 22.4% of Afrisun KZN (Pty) Ltd (Sibaya Casino). This 
investment provided GPI with an effective 5.6% stake indirectly in Sibaya Casino. The R33 million relates 
to the remeasurement of the 59% previously held interest in Grand Casino KZN and arose due to acquiring 100% 
of this investment. A detailed fair value assessment of Grand Casino KZN was conducted at the time of this 
transaction and a R24 million bargain purchase on the acquisition of the investment adjustment was accounted 
for. The costof this investment has been included in investments made during the year in the cash flow. On 
2 August 2013 GPI announced that the Mpumalanga Gambling Board (“MGB”) had approved the transfer of the LPM
Route Operator License held by Zimele Slots Mpumalanga (Pty) Ltd ('Zimele') to Grand Gaming Mpumalanga (Pty) 
Ltd ('GGM'), a wholly-owned subsidiary of GPI Slots. The acquisition became unconditional on 17 July 2013
when the MGB approved the acquisition and transfer of the route operator license resulting in GGM formally
gaining control of the business on 18 July 2013. The only tangible assets acquired were the assets as 
defined per the agreement, which mostly consisted of property, plant and equipment. As for intangible assets
the route operator license and site operator licenses were identified as intangible assets. No other
intangible assets have been identified.

On 2 August 2013 GPI announced that, through its 100% held subsidiary GPI Slots, it had entered into an 
agreement to acquire 100% of the issued share capital and loan accounts in Bohwa 1 (Pty) Ltd ('Hot Slots'). 
The effective date of the deal was 17 December 2013.  As per IFRS 3R the acquirer, GPI Slots is required to 
identify all the assets purchased and liabilitie sassumed and to recognize these items, separately from goodwill,
at the fair value at the acquisition date. As for intangible assets the route operator license, site operator
licenses, brand and trademarks were identified as intangible assets. No other intangible assets have been 
identified.

On 1 July 2013 Grand Capital Investment Holding (Pty) Ltd ('GCI') acquired an 85% interest in Grand Tech. 
This acquisition is part of the group’s stated objective of investing in its own Information Technology 
infrastructure. The non- controlling interest in Grand Tech was based on the proportionate share of net 
assets. 

Goodwill on the above acquisitions has arisen as a results of expected synergies, whereas the gain on acquisition 
of Grand Casino KZN has arisen from a discounted consideration paid for the fair value of the net assets acquired. 
The discount realized can be attributed to the appreciation of the Dolcoast asset during the interim period of 
negotiations.

6.Finance costs

Finance costs increased year on year as a result of the long term loan that was received at the end of the
2013 financial year from Sanlam Capital Markets in respect of our head office building.

7.Taxation

The tax charge in the statement of comprehensive income decreased compared to the prior year due to BURGER KING®
only being part of the group for 6 weeks during the prior year whereas during the current year an additonal
R19 million deferred tax asset was raised, as a result of losses incurred.

8.Discontinued operations and assets held for sale
Due to GPI entering into sale agreements to sell various investments, the related assets and liabilities have
been separately disclosed on the statement of financial position and statement of comprehensive income as 
required by IFRS 5. 

As these investments include the Slots and Casino segments. They are considered to be a separate major line
of business, and therefore meet the definition of discontinued operations and as a result the statement of 
comprehensive income and statement of cash flows comparative figures have been restated as required by IFRS 5.

While GPI currently owns 100% of the Slots group it plans to dispose of 70%  of GPI Slots in three separate 
tranches with the effective date of the first tranche of 25% being  1 July 2014. As the sale of the first tranche 
gives rise to a loss in control of the assets and liabilities of the Slots group has been  disclosed as held
for sale.

Currently GPI owns 25.1% in SunWest and Worcester respectively and an effective indirect stake of 5.6% in 
Sibaya Casino through its investment in Dolcoast. In terms of the sale agreement, GPI will sell these 
investments during the next twelve months once all conditions precedent have been met.

The holding in National Manco, an available for sale instrument, is also being disposed of in this transaction.
The investment is carried at its fair value of R1 million, based on the agreed transaction price, which is 
considered to be the best indication of the fair value of this investment. This measurement basis results in 
the asset being considered a level 3 investment (i.e. that the valuation is based on unobservable inputs).
No significant change in the valuation is expected to impact the profit and loss and therefore no sensitivity 
has been provided.

Overall Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR) from slots group increased by 26% compared to the prior year. GGR is the 
term used for the net revenue generated by a limited payout machine (LPM) from the amount of cash played 
through the LPM less payouts to players. Cost of sales mainly consists of cost of sales in respect of LPM’s,
which includes direct costs such as commissions to site owners, gambling levies and monitoring fees. Cost of 
sales in respect of LPM’s has increased by 29%, due to additional taxes being incurred as a result of the 
additional revenues. Included in the tax charge in the statement of comprehensive income is the deferred tax
effect of R70 million as a result of the decision to sell these assets.

Profit from equity-accounted investments relates to the profit from SunWest and Grand Casino KZN. 
No profit from Worcester has been recognised due to the company making losses during the year and the
cumulative losses since acquisition exceeding the original cost, resulting in a carrying value of nil.

The results of the Slots group, SunWest, Dolcoast and National Manco for the year are presented below.

9.Headline earnings, HEPS and adjusted HEPS

Headline earnings per share (HEPS) decreased by 90% adjusted HEPS decreased by 26%. The main reason
for the decrease when compared to the prior year is the additional establishment costs incurred in 
BURGER KING®,which is consistent with the growth phase of a business.

Operational highlights


REVIEW OF OPERATIONS

Casino Group

SunWest

SunWest consists of GrandWest Casino and the Table Bay Hotel.

GrandWest's revenue increased by 8.2% when compared to the prior year and its EBITDA increased by 5.6% to 
R833 million. These increases translated into a 0.5% increase in their profit after tax to R489 million. As our
major investment we are very pleased with the results for the period and acknowledge the effort that GrandWest's
management team have put in to achieve these results.

The Table Bay Hotel incurred a loss after tax for the year of R25 million despite showing a R23 million operating
profit. Pleasingly, the loss for the year is 45.4% lower than the prior year. The current year EBITDA of 
R50 million is 127% higher than that of the prior period and most encouragingly the revenue of R233 million has
increased by 28.6% compared to the prior year.

Golden Valley Casino

Golden Valley Casino's revenue increased by 12.2% to R144 million. Its EBITDA however decreased by 6.3% to 
R27 million and its EBITDA percentage decreased by 3.6% to 18.5% (22.2%). These decreases resulted in a loss after
tax of R0.1 million (R1 million profit after tax).


Grand Casino KZN

GPI acquired the remaining 41% of Grand Casino KZN on 20 November 2013 and in so doing became the 100% owner of
this entity. Grand Casino KZN has been consolidated from this time and the share of profits from Dolcoast has 
been accounted for as part of the assets held for sale.

Slots Group

The group now owns and operates a total of 5 LPM Route Operator licences in South Africa since the acquisition of
Hot Slots. Together with our other four licences namely; Grandslots, Kingdomslots, Grand Gaming Mpumalanga and 
Grand Gaming Gauteng, the group now has access to a possible 5 000 LPMs.

GPI previously announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, GPI Slots concluded an agreement to acquire
the shares and operations of Gold Circle KwaZulu-Natal Slots (Pty) Ltd, trading as KZN Slots ("KZN Slots"). All
conditions precedent were met on 6 August 2014 when the KZN Gambling Board approval was received.The total
purchase price paid in respect of the acquisition of KZN Slots ("the KZN Slots Purchase Consideration") amounts 
to R78 million.

We continue to explore LPM expansion opportunities in South Africa and abroad, with new and existing bingo 
licences being pursued in the rest of the country.

Food Group

During the year BURGER KING® South Africa has opened a total of 18 stores in Gauteng, Western Cape and 
KwaZulu-Natal, and served more than 1.8 million customers. In addition the company trained and certified more 
than 1000 staff members. BURGER KING®'s beef patty plant, a Joint Venture with Excellent Meat, officially opened
in May 2014 and was certified by BURGER KING® World Wide in June 2014, further enforcing our commitment to
localise our supply chain. This dedicated plant is the first of its kind in Africa and has the ability to meet
the growing demand of BURGER KING® South Africa as well as servicing an export market.

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

The contingent liability relating to the additional assessment which was disclosed at the end of June 2013 was
been resolved with SARS and the R16 million paid to SARS in this regard was refunded.

No provision for penalties has been raised in respect of the incorrect treatment of VAT as discussed in the prior
year error note. The group has embarked on a voluntary disclosure process with SARS.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The group, in the ordinary course of business, entered into various transactions with related parties. Any 
intra-group related party transactions and outstanding balances are eliminated in the preparation of the 
consolidated financial statements of the group as presented.

DIVIDENDS

The company has reaffirmed its policy of being dividend active, but has delayed an announcement of a dividend 
until such time as the proceeds from the sale of its gaming assets to Sun International and other parties is 
certain and all conditions precedent have been met.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On 23 July 2014, Grand Foods acquired a further 42.8% of Mac Brothers for a cash consideration of R43 million 
thereby increasing its total investment to 65.8%. 

The KZN Slots Purchase Consideration will be settled in a combination of a cash payment of 80%, equating to
R63 million and an issue of shares equating to 20% or R15 million ("the KZN Slots Acquisition Issue"). The number 
of shares to be issued in terms of the KZN Slots Acquisition Issue will be calculated by dividing R15 million by
a subscription price per GPI share equal to the 30 day volume weighted average trading price of GPI shares on the
JSE, for the 30 day period immediately preceding 1 July 2014.

On 30 July 2014, GPI, through its wholly owned subsidiary GPI Investments 1 (Pty) Ltd entered into an agreement
with Spur Corporation Limited ("Spur") whereby GPI will subscribe for 10% of the issued share capital of Spur
for a total consideration of R295 million. The purchase consideration represents a 10%, B-BBEE lock-in,
discount to the volume-weighted average trading price of Spurs shares on the JSE Limited for the 
90 days trading prior to 30 July 2014. This transaction is still subject to certain conditions precedent.

No information in respect of the fair value of assets and liabilities has been disclosed as the purchase price
allocation has not yet been completed on any of the business combinations mentioned in this subsequent events
section.

DIRECTORATE

Mogamat Faldi Samaai resigned as non-executive director on 2 June 2014 in order to take on an executive position 
in our property division as property executive.

PROSPECTS

The domestic economy remains under pressure with high inflation slow growth and a cycle of increasing interest rates. 
Trading conditions will consequently remain under pressure for our Gaming and Food assets.

BURGER KING® is projected to break-even in short term and will no longer require any further cash investment from GPI 
beyond June 2015.  The expansion of BURGER KING® locally as well as within the African countries to which GPI has 
the rights, will be continued and explored to such an extent that it is envisaged that the income that is foregone 
through the sales of the Gaming assets will be replaced by the remaining assets, by 2016.  Beyond 2016, the 
potential growth in revenues and profitability is projected to justify the decision to re-position GPI through 
the sale of assets where growth has plateaued. The company’s strong balance sheet positions it well to take
advantage of the current economic circumstances that prevail and to pursue its strategic goals.
 
Any statements included in this announcement which may be construed as general profit forecasts has not been reviewed 
or reported on by the company's auditors.
