There is no disclosure of segment assets and liabilities as it is not possible to specifically
allocate tangible assets and liabilities to specific segments.

Management has determined the operating segments based on the reports reviewed and this is 
supported by management reporting disciplines, which include monthly variance reporting. 
Insimbi's performance is monitored continuously and issues arising are addressed at monthly 
management meetings that have board representation present.

Management considers the business from both a geographical and product management perspective. 
Management assesses the performance of the operating segments based on measures such as 
gross and operating profit.

COMMENTARY
The directors of Insimbi are pleased to announce the audited results for the year ended 
29 February 2016. 

1. Basis of Preparation and Accounting Policies
The results for the year ended 29 February 2016 have been prepared in accordance with 
International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), and comply with the requirements of 
the Companies Act 71 of 2008 and the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited. The principle 
accounting policies applied by the group in the abridged consolidated financial results for 
the year ended 29 February 2016 are consistent with those applied in the consolidated financial
statements for the year ended 28 February 2015. These financial statements do not include all
the information for full annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with 
the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 29 February 2016. The results have 
been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc. Their unqualified audit report and the audited 
financial statements are available for inspection at the company's registered office. These 
abridged financial statements have been prepared under the supervision of Frederik Botha (CA)SA 
(Commercial and Financial Director).

2. Review of activities
Insimbi continues to operate out of our offices in Johannesburg, Durban, and Cape Town and 
we are actively represented in the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Zimbabwe via our 
agents there. In addition, we continue to service most sub-Saharan and central African 
countries, as well as certain north, west and east African countries. We are also active in 
South America, Eastern Europe, certain Middle East countries and the UAE, Japan and Korea as
well as India.

3. Financial Review
The year under review was challenging mainly due to the global and particularly, the local 
steel industry's continued decline. The slowdown in local steel production, the business 
rescue and subsequent closure of Evraz Highveld Steel coupled with the downturn in commodity 
prices all contributed to nominal decline in revenue R2.9 million or 0.3%. It is estimated 
that the above challenges contributed to a loss in revenue of approximately R85 million and 
considering this and all the negative sentiment in the market, the group still managed to 
produce a solid set of results.

Insimbi has responded proactively to the weaker market conditions and implemented certain 
operating and cost reduction initiatives that had a positive impact on the total performance 
of the group and although operating expenses are up by 14% or R10 million on our previous 
corresponding period, when one excludes non-recurring expenses of approximately R4.0 million 
(mainly Evraz write off) and the operating expenses associated with the acquisition in 
August 2015 of Polydrum Proprietary Limited of approximately R7.0 million, the comparative 
operating expenses have in fact decreased by R1.0 million compared to the previous year. 

The acquisition and integration of Polydrum in August 2015 has been successful although the 
effect of the severe drought experienced in the latter part of the financial year, which 
impacted on the agricultural demand for containers, was not anticipated and as a result, 
it has not performed as expected. It has also experienced some production losses due to 
erratic electricity supply. We are working on a solar solution to avoid this in the future. 
The introduction of the two new production lines which were commissioned in February of this 
year will have a significant impact on this operation in the new financial year.

We are especially encouraged by our strong operating cash flow generated during the period 
under review and very proud that we have consistently generated cash and profits since 
listing in March 2008.

4. Market and Prospects
The potential threat of an economic downgrade to the South African economy together with 
political turmoil within various political parties towards the run-up to the local elections 
will have a negative impact on the future market sentiment. Higher inflation and higher 
interest rate will further contribute towards a very slow economic outlook. 

The steel industry will continue to look to Government for assistance in helping revive the 
steel market. The negative view on potential growth within the steel industry is having a 
negative impact on all other businesses supplying into this industry. 

Infrastructure spend is still very slow and with new cement production facilities coming 
online the pressure is on cost-cutting, which may have an impact on the Refractory segment's 
profits in the future. The import tariff introduction on certain cement products from Pakistan
introduced late in our previous financial year, has had a positive effect on the demand for 
locally produced cement but much more needs to be done to lift the industry.

We do not expect significant growth in the Foundry segment in the immediate future but it 
seems like the industry has stabilised and we anticipate that we will see a slight increase 
in demand towards second half of this financial year. Opportunities will continue to present 
themselves and Insimbi is prepared and equipped to embrace these opportunities in order to 
further diversify and grow the group revenue streams, cash flows and profitability. We are 
confident that 2017 will be another prosperous financial year for the group and we will 
continue to keep our focus on maintaining our cost base as low as possible, growing our 
market for the higher margin products and increasing revenues by providing the best service 
and quality products in our industry.

Insimbi expects growth in the short term from the acquisition of Polydrum and its new range 
of products and we will continue to look for other potential acquisitions that make strategic 
sense in our goal to further diversify the group in line with our strategy plan. Cash flow 
and working capital will need to be managed strictly to continue to adapt to the difficulties 
faced by our customers and suppliers alike but we have been doing this a long time and we 
have the necessary skills in place to ensure that we optimise this cycle.
 
5. Post balance sheet events
In negotiations before year-end an offer to purchase Erf 453 Meyerton, Ext 3 Township 
Registration Division IR, The Province of Gauteng in extent 7 003m2 (seven thousand and 
three square metres) for a consideration of R2.4 million excluding VAT was submitted and 
accepted. The transfer is expected to be completed within the first three months of the 
new financial year.

At the general meeting held on 3 May 2016, Insimbi shareholders approved the implementation 
of an employee share participation transaction and a management share participation 
transaction in terms of which eligible employees will, collectively, obtain an approximate 
8.78% indirect shareholding interest in Insimbi.

8. Dividends
Interim dividend number 12 of 2 cents per share was declared on 29 September 2015, payable on 
26 October 2015 to shareholders registered on 23 October 2015. The total payout was R4 725 814 
(2015: R3 622 482).

A final gross dividend of 2.5 cents per share has been declared on 19 May 2016 for the year ended 
29 February 2016. There are 260 000 000 ordinary shares in issue at announcement date, of which 
22 828 369 are held in treasury and the total dividend amount payable is R5 929 290 (2015 Final 
Dividend: R5 906 881). 

This is a dividend as defined in the Income Tax Act, 1962, and is payable from income reserves.

The South African dividend tax (DT) rate is 15%. The net amount payable to shareholders who 
are not exempt from DT is 2.125 cents per share, while it is 2.5 cents per share to those 
shareholders who are exempt from DT. The income tax reference number of the company is 
9078488153.

No share certificates will be dematerialised or rematerialised between Friday, 10 June 2016 
and Friday, 17 June 2016, both days inclusive.

9. Litigation
The Directors are aware of one possible legal matter whereby a shareholder requested a sale 
of shares agreement being declared invalid. No provision in relation to this claim has been 
recognised in these consolidated financial statements, as it is premature to indicate whether 
a significant liability will arise.

Limited will be held at 359 Crocker Road, Wadeville Ext 4, Germiston on Friday 24 June 2016
