Commentary
Gundle
Revenue decreased by 11,6% and operating profit by 79%.
One manufacturing subsidiary continued with a major loss and
actions undertaken during the period included a total change of
the management team, resulting in a major retrenchment exercise,
as well as the employment of consultants for 6 months to implement
a turnaround strategy and to improve production efficiencies.
Market conditions remain depressed and there was a volume variance
of 17% compared to the previous period. This improvement process
is not an overnight solution but should continue to reduce the
losses and return the subsidiary to profitability within the next
few months.
The dam lining division’s profitability reduced by 67,2% versus
the previous period as was expected. This was mainly due to the
not repeated major projects in Sub-Sahara Africa. However, it is
still profitable and slightly below budget.          Major tender
allocations are still outstanding but have been delayed due to the
economic downturn. Although the bumper profitability of last year
will be hard to repeat, the division is still performing well.
Improvements in our construction, agricultural flexible division’s
products ensured that the market share increased. The improvement
in the Swaziland operation is continuing.
The trading division improved profitability by 4% on an increased
turnover of 11%.

Repi Colourants
This division which trades in colourants for PET plastics produced
a good profit for the first six months.

Inmins
The market continued its negative trend and led to much reduced
demand.

Due to the fall in commodity prices in the mining industry and
the re-positioning of the mines, there was reduced demand in the
platinum and coal sectors.   This, together with the closing of
Highveld Steel in Witbank, had a major effect on the two Witbank
operations.      Pro-active actions have been taken whereby four
loss making operations in Inmins were merged into two, in order
to reduce overheads and to minimize losses.         The Inmins’
industrial division’s profitability decreased, but remained
profitable in a depressed market.
                                                            
Review of operations
Prospects

Gundle
The turnaround strategy in one of the flexible manufacturing
divisions should lead to profitability in this division by the
end of the financial year.
The other manufacturing divisions should continue with their
improvements.
In the dam lining division, if major outstanding tenders are not
awarded, the bumper profits of last year will not be repeated.
However, they should meet their budget targets.
In a depressed market the trading division should continue to be
profitable.

Inmins
The Mining and Industrial Markets remain tough and are expected to
remain so for the rest of the year. Operational improvements in
the division are expected to maintain the profitability of the
division.
