NOTES
1.  Presentation of consolidated results
    Trematon Capital Investments Limited (the "company") is a company domiciled in 
    South Africa. The unaudited interim consolidated results of the company for the 
    period ended 29 February 2016 comprise the company and its subsidiaries 
    (together referred to as the "group") and the group's interest in joint ventures 
    and associates.

    The unaudited interim consolidated results have been prepared in accordance with 
    and containing information required by IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, the 
    SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee 
    and in the manner required by the Companies Act and the JSE Limited Listings 
    Requirements. The unaudited interim consolidated results have been prepared using 
    accounting policies and methods of computation that are in terms of IFRS and which 
    are consistent with those of the previous annual financial statements. The unaudited 
    interim consolidated results have not been audited or reviewed by the company's 
    auditors.

    The unaudited interim consolidated results have been prepared on the going concern 
    basis using a combination of the historical cost and fair value bases of accounting.

    Other standards or interpretations that have been issued and are effective, have 
    been adopted by the group but are not applicable to its activities.

    The unaudited interim consolidated results are stated in Rands, which is the 
    group's functional and presentation currency.

    In preparing the unaudited interim consolidated results management is required to 
    make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts represented in the unaudited 
    interim consolidated results and related disclosures. Use of available information 
    and the application of judgement is inherent in the formation of estimates. Actual 
    results in the future could differ from these estimates which may be material to 
    the unaudited interim consolidated results.

    Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions 
    to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is 
    revised and in any future periods affected.

DIRECTORS' REVIEW

Introduction
The group continues to broaden its investment base and has achieved positive results 
in most areas of operation. 

Financial review
Earnings per share increased by 35% to 8.9 cents per share when compared to the prior 
interim period. Headline earnings decreased to a loss of 2.3 cents per share. 
The difference between headline earnings and earnings per share is due to fair value 
adjustments on investment properties being excluded from headline earnings. During 
this interim period various investment properties purchased in the last 12 months have 
been improved and long high-quality leases signed which have resulted in the fair 
value adjustment. 

Net asset value increased by 25% to 241 cents per share from 193 cents in the prior 
interim period. The intrinsic net asset value increased by 13% over the prior interim 
period to 367 cents per share (2015: 326 cents). The intrinsic net asset value is the 
best indicator as to the market value of the group's assets and investments. 

Cash on hand at the end of the period was R21.9 million which is a decrease from the 
R55.4 million at 31 August 2015. The cash was used to purchase additional investment 
properties within Resi Investment Group and Aria Property Group and for the 
construction of the Marina Village development at Club Mykonos Langebaan. Most recently 
it was utilised for the investment in Generation Education, including the construction 
of its first school in Sunningdale, Cape Town.

Investment review
Club Mykonos Langebaan ("CML") (100% interest) and Mykonos Casino (30% interest)
The biggest new investment at CML is the construction of 25 luxury units on the 
waterfront. "Marina Village" is expected to be completed by the end of 2016. 60% of 
the Marina Village units have been sold. This development will introduce a new category 
of leisure accommodation in the area and is part of the ongoing improvement and 
renovation at the resort.

Other resort properties are also being improved and most commercial tenants are trading 
well. The occupancies and average room rate at the resort have shown excellent growth over 
the past 12 months - the group is not a major direct beneficiary of this trend as it does not 
own many units but this growth enhances the value of the remaining development 
opportunities.

As a reflection of these trends CML was recognised again at the RCI Osca awards as one 
of the top five large resorts in South Africa.

The South African casino industry has seen subdued growth over the past 24 months, 
however Mykonos Casino has been one of the best-performing casino operations in the 
country over this period and has shown consistent growth in gaming revenue and profit. 
This is due to the improvements at the resort and some positive regional factors. 

Aria Property Group ("Aria") (67% interest)
During the period, Aria completed the redevelopment of Northgate Office Park (a joint venture 
between the group and Buffet Investments).  Lease commitments have been received for the 
entire building and management is very satisfied with the quality of the tenant profile.

The core portfolio showed solid growth in both rentals and values and vacancies remained 
immaterial.

Aria entered into an agreement to purchase a well located industrial property in Parow, 
Western Cape for R19 millon. This property was transferred after the interim period.

The portfolio is in a growth phase and management is hopeful that further acquisition 
opportunities will arise during 2016.

Resi Investment Group ("Resi") (100% interest)
This was a period of consolidation for Resi with a focus on further improving the quality 
of the rental book and operational efficiency. Further small acquisitions were made in 
apartment blocks and suburbs where Resi already has an investment presence. There were 
also some small realisations in the trading portfolio.

The fundamental economic case for rental stock of the type that Resi owns remains strong 
but the availability of completed units at attractive prices has reduced so the group has 
partnered with other investors on a joint venture basis for the construction of a 126-unit 
development in Sanddrift, Cape Town (between Century City and Milnerton) - the projected 
initial yield on the development is more than 10% and further opportunities are being explored.

Generation Education (75% interest)
Generation Education's first school was constructed in Sunningdale in the Western Cape at a 
cost of R18 million. It is a state-of-the-art school which offers a high standard of 
education to children aged six months to 12 years. Initial demand has exceeded expectations 
and plans are under way to increase the capacity of the school. 

Initial indications are that the model employed by Generation Education is viable and the 
group is currently focusing on expanding its offering and is in the process of looking at 
various school sites and projects to expand this business. 

This business has been in operation for two months and has contributed R2.3 million to 
revenue to date. The business as a whole contributed a net loss of R0.8 million for the 
period being mainly due to set-up and administration costs.

Other
Other investments include an indirect investment in Mazor Group, Stalagmite Property Investments 
(an industrial park in Somerset West) and various listed and unlisted investments. There was 
no material change in this part of the portfolio and each investment is continuously assessed.


INTRINSIC VALUE REPORT

An intrinsic value report has been prepared to improve shareholder communication. 
The group's financial results have been prepared in terms of the required IFRS 
interpretations, which in some cases do not allow for certain investments to be shown 
at their market values, such as investments in associates and joint ventures, which 
are recorded at cost plus its share of post-acquisition reserves less distributions 
received and inventory which is carried at the lower of cost and net realisable value. 

The intrinsic net asset value of the group includes valuations of all investment 
categories and represents, in the opinion of the directors, a more accurate assessment 
of the group's value than the net asset value calculated in terms of IFRS.

These valuations are either based on their listed market value, external professional 
or directors' valuations.
