4.1 Property, plant and equipment - During the year under review there was a
reclassification from property, plant and equipment to investment property.

when Queenspark Proprietary Limited moved to a smaller space within the building,
resulting in the previously occupied space being rented out to third parties.

from property, plant and equipment to investment property. This property was
previously owner occupied, but was reclassified on 1 January 2015 when Queenspark
Proprietary Limited moved to a smaller space within the building, resulting in the
previously occupied space being rented out to third parties.
4.3 Financial instruments - Financial instruments included in trade and other
receivables and trade and other payables are short term in nature, settled
within 12 months, and the carrying value substantially approximates the fair value.
COMMENTARY
GROUP RESULTS
The group produced a very pleasing result mainly due to the improved performance of the
retail segment. Many initiatives implemented by the group added benefits which reflect in the
results. Revenue increased by 7.1% to R536.6 million (2014: R501.2 million). The gross profit
generated from the retail segment increased by 19.8% to R290.4 million (2014: R242.3 million).
Other income, which includes rental income and the profit on sale of the Atlantis property,
increased from R5.6 million to R17.0 million. Trading expenses were contained and increased
by 4.6%.
The above resulted in the operating profit increasing by 273% to R29.9 million (2014: loss
of R17.3 million) which includes an amount of R3.9 million in respect of the profit on sale
of the Atlantis property. The operating profit excluding the profit on sale of the property
amounts to R26 million. Profit after tax increased by 337.4% to R23.8 million (2014: loss
of R10 million) resulting in the earnings per share increasing by 336.9%.
RETAIL (QUEENSPARK)
Queenspark returned to profitability despite the challenging market and produced an operating
profit of R26.8 million compared to a R14 million operating loss in the prior period.
Certain initiatives implemented produced the desired results: these included cost containment,
the closure of three unprofitable stores, opening of new stores and improved processes
employed to improve the gross margin, which increased to 56.3% (2014: 49%).
PROPERTY
The operating profit of this segment amounted to R7.8 million (2014: R0.0 million) which
includes the R3.9 million profit on the sale of the non-strategic property located in
Atlantis. The operating profit excluding the profit on sale of the Atlantis property amounts
to R3.9 million.
The group's three remaining investment properties are located in Salt River (Cape Town),
one of which has been recently developed, namely the Rex Trueform Office Park ("RTOP").
PROSPECTS
RETAIL (QUEENSPARK)
The current summer season's stock sold during the first nine weeks of the 2016 financial
year has been well received by customers and the group plans to roll out further stores
in order to capture additional market share. The enterprise resource planning system is
planned to be implemented during the 2016 financial year. The benefits to be gained
therefrom will mostly be realised in the 2017 financial year and thereafter. Other
initiatives being considered mainly focus on turnover growth and are predominantly
aimed at improving the performance over the medium to long term.
PROPERTY
The business has commenced with development feasibilities in respect of the two undeveloped
investment properties and intends to complete the feasibilities during the 2016 financial
year. The one property is classified as an important Heritage site, which limits the
development opportunities, and will cause a delay in the development process.
In relation to the RTOP, lease agreements in respect of approximately 90% of the office space
have been entered into. However, due to the required reorganisation of space within the
building a smaller part of the rental was only due from the beginning of July 2015. The balance
of the office space not yet let, amounting to approximately 900 square metres, is likely to be
let during the 2016 financial year.
DIVIDEND
The directors have proposed a distribution of 61 cents per share in respect of the ordinary and
"N" ordinary shares. Shareholders will be asked to approve this proposal of the board at the
annual general meeting of the company.
