AUDITED SUMMARY CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL RESULTS
for the year ended 31 March 2016
COMMENTARY
INTRODUCTION
DAWN manufactures and distributes quality branded hardware,
sanitaryware, plumbing, kitchen, engineering and civil products
through a national branch network in South Africa, as well as in
selected countries in the rest of Africa and Mauritius. The group
has two main operating segments, building and infrastructure,
both supported by the solutions segment.
REPORTING PERIOD
Following the sale in November 2014 of 51% of DAWN’s Watertech
and Sanware clusters to Grohe Luxemburg Four AG, Europe’s largest
and
the world’s leading single-brand manufacturer and supplier of
sanitary fittings, DAWN changed its year-end to 31 March,
resulting in a nine-month reporting period for F2015. As per JSE
Listings Requirements, the group is required to report its last
published comparative results.
These results therefore report on the 12 months to 31 March 2016
compared to the nine-month period to 31 March 2015.
GROUP STRATEGY
DAWN’s business model is to be the master distributor in targeted
industry sectors. The model’s competitive advantage centres on
the
broad disposable income and population distribution in the
markets it serves. This creates a number of barriers to entry for
competitors, such as a high establishment cost, together with a
requirement for technical expertise in its warehouse and
logistics services. Traditional carriers are not geared for
break-bulk storage and distribution. Together with DAWN’s 100%
coverage of southern African markets through its “milk-run”
distribution model together with its break-bulk and just-in-time
service, is its key competitive advantage.
PERIOD UNDER REVIEW
In the interim results to 30 September 2015 DAWN reported
significant progress in the implementation of its turnaround
strategy. However, the second half of the financial year was
severely impacted by a sharp economic slow-down and a slow-down
of government spend on water projects, which resulted in losses
in a number of businesses.
Grohe DAWN Watertech (GDW), in which DAWN holds a minority (49%)
stake, was also impacted by delayed approval of working capital
funding which disrupted the supply chain and had an impact on
earnings at the associate company investment level as well as on
the building trading segment of DAWN, GDW’s largest customer.
Lower resource prices, foreign exchange volatility and scarcity,
and political instability also impacted adversely on DAWN’s rest
of Africa business.
Thus, group sales came under severe pressure in the second half.
The management team responded by dropping prices to maintain
historical volumes. This only served to exacerbate the impact of
the dearth of sales by also reducing gross margins. Although the
group’s operating expenses were trimmed back aggressively, it has
a high fixed cost base which does not allow further cost
reductions in the short-term.
Group operating margin therefore decreased from 3,5% in H1 F2016
to a loss for F2016. The subsidiary businesses which moved into
losses were Sangio, Incledon, Pro-Max, Kitchen, DAWN Africa and
DPI International as well as associate GDW. Total losses after
tax (including GDW) amounted to R130,0 million. The company has,
therefore, decided to make significant impairments to the
carrying value of these investments in these results.
The table below summarises the impact of the impairments and
write-downs on attributable earnings:

(0,5)
* Core excludes asset write-downs, identified by management and
approved by the board, which stems from the impairment tests
performed on the group’s various cash-generating units, but do
not qualify for HEPS add-backs.
These losses continued into the first quarter of F2017. Under the
guidance of new management, the group prioritised plans to halt
the losses, move back into profit and bring working capital back
to normal levels. A plan to achieve this was approved by the
executive committee and the board of directors at the end of June
2016 and significant progress toward these goals is expected
during the second quarter of F2017.
Earnings for F2016 are therefore as follows:
- an operating loss before tax, interest, impairments and
derecognitions of R23,9 million (9 months F2015 a loss of
R80,1 million);
- a headline loss per share of 65,6 cents (9 months F2015 a
headline loss of 28,1 cents per share); and
- a loss per share of 318,3 cents (9 months F2015 loss of 202,1
cents per share).
INCOME STATEMENT
Revenue for the 12 months increased by 38% to R5,0 billion,
compared to the 9 months to 31 March 2015. Volumes declined by
3%, price inflation amounted to 8% with the annualisation of the
nine months adding a further notional 33%.
Gross margins decreased to 21,9% from the 23,4% achieved during
the nine months to 31 March 2015.
Net operating expenses reduced by 9%, measured against an
annualised 2015, reducing the expense to sales ratio from 34,1%
in F2015 to 22,4% in F2016. A total of R90 million in costs net
of inflation and acquisitive increases (which amounted to R168
million in real terms) have been removed during the year under
review.
Group PBIT, after the write-downs that do not qualify for
headline earnings add-backs, was a loss of R23,9 million.
Impairments include an appropriate write-down of the group’s
exposure to the rest of Africa operations.
Net finance costs increased by 2% to R37,1 million (F2015: R36,5
million) excluding the charge of R34,0 million relating to the
increase in value associated with the discovery of a written put
over the remaining 49% of the equity in Swan Plastics (see
restatements below).
Income from associates and joint ventures decreased to a loss of
R5,9 million (F2015: profit of R10,9 million) mainly as a result
of the R32,2 million loss (for DAWN’s 49%) by GDW.
As a result of the impairments and write-downs, the group’s
effective tax rate is low at -2,6%.
Non-controlling interests’ share of group earnings increased from
R1,7 million to R5,0 million, mainly reflecting an earnings
increase from Swan Plastics.
The group incurred a net loss after tax, impairments and write-
downs of R757,9 million.
STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION
The reduction in net working capital during the 12 months to 31
March 2016 amounted to R55,0 million and a further reduction is
targeted in F2017.
The group’s net working capital has come down from a high of 65
days in December 2014 to 59 days in March 2016. The group’s
stated
target for working capital is 55 days. The four days difference
amounts to R54 million. Management has, however, identified a
further R146 million of working capital reduction opportunities
(making a total of R200 million). The table below summarises the
group’s working capital movements in days, calculated on a
rolling 12-month basis.

The group’s net asset value decreased to R1 056,2 million as at
31 March 2016 compared to R1 884,5 million at 31 March 2015. The
large reduction in net asset value stems mainly from the net
impairments during the year, amounting to R637 million. Compared
to the group’s net interest-bearing debt, the financial position
has deteriorated to a gearing ratio of 29,5% at 31 March 2016
(8,4% at 31 March 2015).
Short-term debt amounts to R357,4 million (R277,4 million net of
cash). Absa Bank Limited has, subsequent to year-end, renewed the
R200 million revolving credit facility (out of a total of R300
million working capital facilities) and requires repayment on an
amortising profile between 7 October 2016 and 7 October 2017.
DAWN has negotiated to repay R50 million by 31 March 2017 and the
balance of R150 million between 1 April 2017 and 7 October 2017
to align repayment commitments with the cash generation of the
group.
STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS
Cash generated from operating activities before working capital
changes was impacted by the losses incurred in the second half
and
decreased to R49,0 million (F2015: R56,6 million). Working
capital showed an inflow of R25,3 million (F2015: outflow of
R104,3 million). Net finance and tax payments amounted to R58,8
million (F2015: R59,1 million).
Investing and financing activities, however, showed a net inflow
of R53,5 million (F2015: inflow of R103,8 million). Investing
activities showed a R89,9 million inflow for the year. Included
in this number are the following main items:
- R45,4 million additions to property, plant and equipment and
intangible assets. The capital expenditure comprised spend on
the software for the new ERP system, capital expenditure on
fleet, plant and equipment and an outlay for generators, making
the group more resilient to the effects of future power
disruptions; and
- R119,5 million inflows from the repayment of loans owed to DAWN
by associate investment companies.
Financing activities, on the other hand, amounted to a net
outflow of R36,4 million and included:
- R209,2 million in proceeds from debt raising, offset by R207,0
million in repayments of various borrowings and finance leases;
- R30,9 million spent on treasury shares to acquire five million
DAWN shares in the open market during F1 H2016; and
- R7,3 million in dividend payments to non-controlling
shareholders.
The group closed with a net cash of R69,9 million at 31 March
2016 compared to a net cash of R1,4 million at 31 March 2015.

Restatement 1
An addendum to the existing lease agreement on the Germiston
Distribution Centre in 2009 was not disclosed to the board. As a
result, the lease liability had to be restated based on a 15-year
lease at an escalation of 8% per annum, ending in December 2023.
Payments under the operating lease are recognised as expenses on
a straight-line basis over the lease term. The expense treatment,
therefore, does not reflect the cash profile of the lease. The
difference between the cash and the expense is accounted for as a
lease liability. The lease liability of R85,8 million as at 31
March 2016 will reduce during the remaining period of the lease
to Rnil. These entries do not affect DAWN’s historical or future
cash flow and any increases or reduction in the lease liability
will not impact on DAWN’s cash flow.
Restatement 2
In August 2013, a subsidiary of DAWN gave the remaining 49%
shareholders in Swan Plastics Pty Ltd (Swan) the right to put
their shares at a 5 price earnings ratio, based on the average of
the prior two years’ earnings. This written put was not disclosed
to the board. The opposite entry to the written put liability is
represented by a debit to equity. The put represents an asset
that the minority shareholders’ equity in Swan will belong to
DAWN shareholders if the written put is triggered. The difference
between the final purchase consideration and the value of the
non-controlling interest in Swan will be accounted for as part of
the change in ownership reserve.
Restatement 3
A share-based payment obligation of R3,8 million, previously
accounted for as a liability, had to be restated as an element of
equity. This incorrect treatment was highlighted by the JSE
proactive monitoring process.
Other matters
The transactions described above in 1 and 2 were initiated and
executed at the time by certain executive directors and senior
management, respectively. Both transactions were executed without
the knowledge and approval of the board. A reportable
irregularity
has therefore been reported by the external auditors to the
Independent Regulatory Board of Auditors with respect to these
transactions.
After considering the circumstances of these transactions, as a
matter of good governance, the board has instituted the following
corrective actions:
- engaged with external legal counsel to clarify DAWN’s legal
position with respect to these matters and its relationship
with
the individuals in question, including DAWN’s right of recourse
against any relevant individuals;
- engaged with parties involved in the above matters to ensure
the
board acts in the best interests of DAWN;
- accounted for and restated the comparative results in the
annual
financial statements for these transactions; and
- the internal audit department launched detailed investigations
into these transactions.
Please refer to note 9 – restatement, reclassification and
consistency of presentation – for further disclosure.
The board is confident that it has taken and continues to take
all the necessary steps to execute its responsibilities in terms
of the Companies Act of South Africa and the principles of good
governance as contemplated by the King Code on Corporate
Governance.
OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW
Building – 51% of group revenue
The building segment consists of wholly- or majority-owned
building trading businesses, associates and joint ventures. The
building trading businesses include WHS, DAWN Kitchen, DAWN
Africa (DAT), Hamilton’s Brushware, Pro-Max Welding Consumables
and Business Development. Other associates and joint ventures are
GDW, Heunis Steel, DAT Zimbabwe and DAT Tanzania.
Revenue for building trading rose by 38% to R2,5 billion (F2015:
R1,8 billion). A 10% price increase was achieved, but volumes
declined by 3%, whilst the annualisation from nine months added a
notional 31% growth. DAWN’s focus on increasing volume over the
existing cost base resulted in the acquisition of Hamilton’s,
Grass and Gardena in the first half of the year under review.
WHS maintained profitability despite the tough trading conditions
experienced. However, meaningful losses in Pro-Max, DAWN Africa,
DAWN Kitchen Fittings and a loss on closure of WiiN detracted
from this positive performance. Trading conditions and gross
margins are expected to remain under pressure for the foreseeable
future. This segment was further negatively impacted by the loss
incurred by GDW, which also had a knock-on impact on WHS’
profitability.
Grohe experienced severe problems with its investment in China
and, consequently, did not pay sufficient attention to its South
African investment. A funding impasse caused a significant impact
on the businesses’ supply chain and factory recoveries. This was
further exacerbated by the lack of Grohe-led exports into Europe
and Asia compared to what was initially anticipated. GDW
therefore incurred a substantial R32,2 million loss for DAWN’s
49% stake in the business. Lixil, Grohe’s parent company, has
since intervened and implemented management changes. This,
together with a funding solution implemented in July 2016, should
result in GDW returning to profits in the second quarter of
F2017.
Associate Heunis Steel performed in line with expectations and
its contribution to group earnings increased by 3%.
The building segment incurred a net loss after tax, impairments
and write-downs of R494,6 million.
Infrastructure – 49% of group revenue
The infrastructure segment consists of infrastructure
manufacturing (including DPI, DPI International, Swan, Ubuntu and
Sangio) and Incledon, a trading business. Associates and joint
ventures include Simba, Fibrex and Aqualia.
Revenue amounted to R2,4 billion in the 12 months to 31 March
2016 (F2015: R1,8 billion), an increase of 38%, driven by a 6%
increase in price, but off-set by a 4% decline in volumes, as
Sangio’s HDPE pipe business, which is exposed to the declining
mining industry, and Incledon, which is exposed to declining
government water spend, came under severe pressure. The
annualisation from nine months added a notional 36% growth.
The PVC pipe manufacturers performed reasonably well, with DPI,
Swan and Ubuntu increasing profit after tax, but off a weak base
in F2015, impacted by strike and power disruptions. Back-up power
generation has since been installed. Sangio, the HDPE pipe
manufacturer, made a substantial loss, impacted by the
abovementioned mining slow-down across Africa.
Incledon came under severe pressure during the second half and
lost R220 million in revenue compared to H1 F2016, causing
overall
revenue to decline by 4% year-on-year. This was caused mainly by
the mining and civil engineering sector slow-downs. As a result
of this decline in revenue, Incledon responded by chasing sales
on price, causing gross margins to decline substantially and
pushing the business into a substantial loss. The lack of
government spend and payments drove a large part of Incledon
debtors’ book into an overdue situation.
Two associate investments in this segment, Aqualia (Mauritius)
and Simba (Tanzania) broke even. Fibrex (Angola) was impacted by
a weak economy and the lack of foreign currency, resulting in
operating losses, despite a small profit from a property
disposal. This business will be closed at the end of the first
quarter F2017.
The infrastructure segment incurred a net loss after tax,
impairments and write-downs of R219,1 million.
Solutions – 11% of group revenue
Solutions consists of DAWN Logistics (comprising DDC and Cargo),
DAWN Human Resources, DAWN Financial Solutions, DAWN Projects,
DAWN Business Systems (IT) and DAWN Marketing (DMD).
Revenue for solutions grew by 50% to R571,4 million in the 12
months to 31 March 2016 (F2015: R380,1 million). This represents
a 9% growth in price and a 7% improvement in volume, whilst the
annualisation from nine months to 12 months added a notional 34%
growth.
Logistics achieved an operational break-even, as a result of
improved operating efficiencies stemming from the new IT systems
implemented and optimised over the last couple of periods. The
group believes that the footprint of this operation can be
further
leveraged for cost and working capital optimisation. Other
services performed in line with expectation and continue to focus
on growing its non-group and rest of Africa footprint. In-group
cost-cutting initiatives led to less recruitment and training
activity for DAWN Human Resources.
The solutions segment incurred a net loss after tax, impairments
and write-downs of R44,9 million.
Head office and consolidation – -11% of group revenue
Head office consists of the head office team costs and the
consolidation entries required to account for unrealised profits
stemming from significant inter-group trading. A net profit after
tax, impairments and write-downs of R0,7 million was recorded.
OUTLOOK
New management has been introduced in key operational positions,
including the CEO position. Stephen Connelly joined the board as
interim chief executive officer on 1 June 2016, initially on a
six-month appointment, which has now been extended to 12 months.
It is anticipated that economic conditions in South Africa and
neighbouring countries will remain very difficult for some time.
Sales will therefore remain under pressure. Most of the loss-
making businesses will unfortunately continue to make losses in
Q1 F2017.
The main focus in Q2 will be:
1. WHS – increasing the gross margin;
2. Incledon – stemming losses;
3. GDW – return to profitability; and
4. Cash flow – reducing excess working capital.
On the cost front, 1 July salary increases have been foregone and
a hiring freeze instituted and other cost-cutting opportunities
are being explored. An objective has been set to move operating
profit margins in the direction of 5% in the trading and 12% in
the manufacturing businesses.
In the medium-term, duplicated activities will be eliminated and
central services costs challenged and benchmarked. Securing
supplier loyalty will be a priority. The focus of the business
will be changed to profits and returns, not sales. Non-core
businesses will be disposed of and a culture of accountability
will be instilled in the business.
The board believes that these steps, whilst not an immediate fix
for the group’s woes, should deliver benefits for stakeholders in
the medium-term.
Any forward-looking statement in these results have not been
reviewed or audited by the company’s auditors.

NOTES TO THE AUDITED SUMMARY CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. BASIS OF PREPARATION
These consolidated annual financial statements comprise a
summary of the audited consolidated financial statements of
the group for 12 months ended 31 March 2016 that was approved
by the board on 14 July 2016.
The summary consolidated financial statements are prepared in
accordance with the requirements of the JSE Limited’s (JSE)
Listings Requirements for summary financial statements and
the requirements of the Companies Act applicable to summary
financial statements. The JSE requires summary financial
statements to be prepared in accordance with the framework
concepts, the measurement and recognition requirements of
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), the SAICA
Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting
Practices Committee and must also, as a minimum, contain the
information required by IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
The accounting policies applied in the preparation of the
consolidated financial statements from which the summary
consolidated financial statements were derived are in terms
of IFRS and are consistent with the accounting policies
applied in the preparation of the previous consolidated
annual financial statements. The preparation of the summary
consolidated annual financial statements by Yolandi van den
Berg (CA(SA)), senior group financial accountant, has been
supervised by the acting financial director, Hanré Bester
(CA(SA)).
The directors take full responsibility for the preparation of
the provisional report and that the financial information has
been correctly extracted from the underlying annual financial
statements.

2. EARNINGS PER ORDINARY SHARE
BASIC
Basic earnings per ordinary share is calculated by dividing
the profit attributable to equity holders of the company by
the weighted average number of ordinary shares in issue
during the year, excluding ordinary shares acquired by the
company, incentive shares and treasury shares.
DILUTED
Diluted earnings per ordinary share is calculated by
adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary shares
outstanding to assume conversion of all dilutive potential
ordinary shares.

Property, plant and equipment to the value of R47,7 million
was impaired during 2016, consisting of leasehold
improvements over property of R12,9 million, plant and
machinery of R33,2 million, furniture and fittings of R1,5
million and R0,008 million of motor vehicles. During 2015
impairment of property, plant and equipment of R0,7 million
related to Pipex Plastics Botswana Proprietary Limited.
Impairments in the building, infrastructure and solutions
segments amounted to R5,8 million, R23,2 million and R18,7
million, respectively.
These assets were impaired on the basis that the discounted
cash flows did not support the carry value of the property,
plant and equipment of the businesses.
Pro-Max Welding Consumables Proprietary Limited, Distribution
and Warehousing Network Africa Proprietary Limited and Sangio
Pipe Proprietary Limited had impairments in the prior year
relating to intangibles. The further impairments were
necessitated by a deterioration in the markets the entities
operate in, further losses and reduction in turnover volume.
Due to reduced volumes, but greater handling cost, the assets
in DAWN Distribution Centre were impaired.

Intangible assets totalling R7,3 million were impaired in
Hamilton’s Brushware Proprietary Limited (Hamilton’s).
Hamilton’s specialises in the manufacturing and retail
distribution of brushware. These intangible assets were
impaired on the basis that the discounted cash flows did not
support the carry value of the non-monetary assets of the
business. Synergies identified at acquisition did not
materialise, further exacerbated by the current economic
outlook.
Intangible assets totalling R4,3 million were impaired in
Boutique Baths Proprietary Limited (Boutique Baths). Boutique
Baths specialises in the manufacturing and distribution of
unique, luxury baths. These intangible assets were impaired
on the basis that the business is not aligned with DAWN's
model of distribution and wholesale on an economies of scale
basis and did not meet the return criteria set at acquisition
date.
Intangibles totalling R0,9 million were impaired in Wholesale
Housing Supplies (Business Development and WHS Trading
divisions). DAWN Business Development and WHS Trading are the
wholesale distribution arms of DAWN focussing on the
sanitaryware and hardware business. These intangible assets
were impaired on the basis that the discounted cash flows did
not support the carry value of the business units to which it
relates to.
Ubuntu Plastics Proprietary Limited fabricates pipe and pipe
fittings in both PVC and HDPE markets. These intangible
assets were impaired on the basis that the discounted cash
flows did not support the carry value of the non-monetary
assets of the business, mainly due to a slowdown in the HDPE
market, also experienced in other areas of DAWN over the last
two years.
IPS and Incledon, both divisions of Incledon Proprietary
Limited, are the wholesale arm of the infrastructure segment.
Intangibles in this business were impaired due the losses
incurred, mainly due to reduced government and mining spend,
as well as losing market share.
Impairments of R47,1 million in the solutions segment
consisted mainly of impairments to the recently developed IT
software project in Incledon and DAWN Distribution Centres,
where the the discounted cash flows did not support the carry
value of the non-monetary assets of the business unit.

AST is the wholesale distribution business covering the rest
of Africa and operates similarly to the South African trading
businesses. The control of AST is critical for the group to
expand into Africa and to align the growth strategy into
Africa. The step-up of DAWN’s interest, from a 51% joint
venture to a 90% subsidiary, triggered new intangible assets
which had to be recognised. These intangible assets were
impaired on the basis that the consideration paid did not
support the discounted cash flows of the business. Future
expectations relating to business performance were also not
materially different from the prior year, where an impairment
of the investment in joint venture was accounted for. The
SUWA acquisition was forced due to the fact that there was a
contractual obligation to exit out of Nigeria as well as to
settle a guarantee provided by DAWN before it could exit.
Intangible assets to the value of R29,5 million were impaired
in the AST group and R4,2 million on SUWA, a subsidiary in
the AST group.
Pro-Max was acquired to enhance and complement the wholesale
of welding equipment already established in the wholesale
distribution model. The Pro-Max impairment was due to the
short delivery against an earn-out target not being achieved
as well as a business partner who did not share DAWN’s views
in running the business. The business partner subsequently
absconded and, on further consequential investigations,
certain anomalies were uncovered which necessitated the
impairment.
Intangible assets to the value of R45,6 million were impaired
at Sangio Pipe Proprietary Limited (Sangio Pipe), a company
in the infrastructure segment, consisting of R19,0 million of
goodwill, R11,3 million of trademarks and R15,4 million of
customer relationships. The additional 51% in Sangio Pipe, a
high density polyethylene (HDPE) manufacturer, was acquired
to complement the existing PVC and HDPE pipe ranges in the
DAWN group. The impairment arose due to the slowdown in the
economy and, specifically, in the mining industry as well as
a slowdown in exports.

Impairment of investments
31 March 2016
Associates
Impairment of investments in associates in the Building
segment relates to investments in Grohe DAWN Watertech
Proprietary Limited (GDW) and in the Infrastructure segment
in Fibrex S.A.R.L. (Fibrex).
GDW consists of the Watertech companies, mainly situated in
South Africa, and includes brands like Cobra, ISCA, Grohe in
South Africa, Vaal, Libra, Apex and Exipro. During October
2014, a transaction to dispose of 51% to Grohe Luxembourg
Four S.A. (Grohe) was concluded. Synergies, including export
opportunities, did not materialise. Management disruptions,
supply chain and funding shortfalls caused severe losses,
which will take some time to correct. This exacerbated price
and volume pressures.
Fibrex, a pipe factory in Angola experienced a reducing
turnover profile over the last number of years, with major
pressures in respect of political instability, reduction in
infrastructure spend by government, increased local
competition and availability of foreign exchange, all of
which contributed to the impairment.
In both instances value-in-use calculations indicated that
discounted cash flows did not support the carry value of the
entities’ non-monetary assets nor its carry value.
Joint ventures
Impairment of investments in joint ventures occurred in the
Infrastructure segment in respect of Aqualia DPI Proprietary
Limited and DPI Simba Limited.
Aqualia DPI Proprietary Limited is situated in Mauritius and
the reduction in demand for infrastructure spend in the
captive market, with reduced export opportunities, resulted
in negative returns.
DPI Simba Limited is situated in Tanzania and political
instability and elections dampened the demand for
infrastructure spend and DPI Simba Limited experienced
negative returns for consecutive years.
In both instances value-in-use calculations indicated that
discounted cash flows did not support the carry value of the
entities’ non-monetary assets nor its carry value.

A revolving credit facility of R200 million was granted with
Absa Bank Limited at 15 October 2015.
The current facility ends 7 October 2016 and has been re-
negotiated to 7 October 2017. The new facility has similar
characteristics but will have a quarterly step-down of R25
million per quarter in respect of the revolving credit
facility (RCF) starting 7 October 2016 and ending 7 July
2017.
Accounts receivable have been ceded and a general notarial
bond has been registered over inventory.
The details of the covenant measures are as follows:

As indicated above DAWN has breached some of its covenants
and
accordingly approached Absa for a waiver of the relevant
covenant measures.
Absa consented to the non-compliance (breach) of the
covenants
and waived the event of default.
The pricing has provisionally been indicated and reflects a
deteriorated credit position as well as movements in the
general yield curve.
Security requirements remain unchanged.
The carrying amount of the loan in default is R200 million
(R200 million of a RCF) and Rnil general banking limit
(R100 million of a general banking facility).
7. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Fair value estimation
The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is
determined using quoted forward exchange rates to terminate
the contracts at the statement of financial position date.
Derivative financial instruments
The table below analyses financial instruments carried at
fair
value, by valuation method. The different levels have been
defined as follows:
- Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical
assets or liabilities (level 1).
- Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1
that
are observable for the asset or liability, either directly
(that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from
prices) (level 2).
- Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on
observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs)
(level
3).

* Refer to note 10 for details regarding restatements,
reclassifications and consistency of presentation
disclosure.
The fair value of financial instruments traded in active
markets is based on quoted market prices at the statement of
financial position date. A market is regarded as active if
quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an
exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or
regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and
regularly occurring market transactions on an arm’s length
basis. The quoted market price used for financial assets held
by the group is the current bid price. These type of
instruments are included in level 1. DAWN carries no level 1
financial instruments.
The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded
in an active market (for example, over-the-counter derivatives)
is determined by using valuation techniques. These valuation
techniques maximise the use of observable market data where
it is available and rely as little as possible on entity
specific estimates. If all significant inputs required to
fair value an instrument are observable, the instrument is
included in level 2. If one or more of the significant inputs is not
based on observable market data, the instrument is included
in level 3.
Specific valuation techniques used to value financial
instruments include:
- Quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar
instruments.
- The fair value of interest rate swaps is calculated as the
present value of the estimated future cash flows based on
observable yield curves.
- The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is
determined using forward exchange rates at the statement of
financial position date, with the resulting value
discounted back to present value.
- Other techniques, such as discounted cash flow analysis,
are used to determine fair value for the remaining financial
instruments.
All of the resulting fair value estimates are included in
level 2.
31 March 2016
The settlement dates on open forward exchanges contracts
range between one and six months from 31 March 2016.
31 March 2015
The settlement dates on open forward exchange contracts range
between one and four months from 31 March 2015.
Hedge reserve
At 31 March 2016, the group held derivative financial
instruments that were designated as cash flow hedges of
future forecast transactions. These were hedging of:
- Future capital expenditure payments by forward foreign
exchange contracts
- Future inventory payments by forward foreign exchange
contracts
Call and put option – Grohe DAWN Watertech
The Watertech transaction included a call option in favour of
Grohe to acquire an additional 24,1% indirect shareholding in
the Watertech companies from DAWN after a ten-year period
and, if such option is exercised by Grohe, or if Grohe’s
shareholding has otherwise increased to 75,1%, the option for
DAWN to put its remaining 24,9% indirect interest in the
Watertech companies to Grohe.
Put option of R34,4 million and a call option of R25,4
million were recognised at their fair values. A 50%/50%
probability was assumed and the consideration in future will
be determined as an earnings multiple.
Written put – Swan Plastics
A written put relating to Swan Plastics Proprietary Limited
(Swan) had to be accounted for. In August 2013, a subsidiary
of DAWN gave the remaining 49% shareholders in Swan the right
to put their shares at a 5 price earnings ratio based on the
average of the prior two years’ earnings. After six years
there will be a deemed offer and a deemed acceptance of the
remaining 49%. This written put was not disclosed to the
board. At inception the valuation is accounted for in
retained earnings as part of equity and the profit and loss
impact is accounted for as a finance expense and an
employment expense.
The written put is disclosed in derivatives and an employment
liability in trade and other payables – non-current.

R28,1 million more, and operating profit for the period would
have increased by R1,4 million. The amount of net assets
acquired amounted to R0,9 million and non-controlling
interests of R2,3 million was recognised. Total fair value of

would have been R62,4 million more, and operating profit for
the period would have decreased by R1,0 million.
IPS & Distribution Proprietary Limited (IPS)
An additional 51% was purchased in IPS as at 1 January 2015
for a cash consideration of R51. The 49% disclosed as an
investment in associate was derecognised. Subsequently, IPS

10. RESTATEMENT, RECLASSIFICATION AND CONSISTENCY OF PRESENTATION
RESTATEMENTS (NOTES 1 TO 3)
1. Restatement 1 – Operating lease liability (note 8) and
deferred profit
An operating lease liability is required for leases with
escalation clauses. An addendum to the existing lease
agreement on the Germiston Distribution Centre in 2009
was not disclosed to the board. As a result, the lease
operating liability (note 8) and related deferred tax had
to be restated based on a minimum 15-year lease period at
an escalation of 8% per annum, ending in December 2023. To
improve disclosure, the operating lease liability has been
disclosed as a separate item on the face of the statement
of financial position and a description of the liability
is included in note 8.
Deferred profit relating to the initial sale of the
Germiston Distribution Centre had to be restated based on
a 15-year amortising profile instead of 10 years as
previously reported. This is in line with the operating
lease liability. Deferred profit and the relating deferred
tax were restated.
The financial impact in the affected periods are as
follows:
31 March 30 June
2015 2014
R’000 R’000
Statement of changes in equity (3 976) (78 452)
2. Restatement 2 – Written put (note 7)
A written put relating to Swan Plastics Proprietary
Limited (Swan) had to be accounted for. In August 2013, a
subsidiary of DAWN gave the remaining 49% shareholders in
Swan the right to put their shares at a 5 price earnings
ratio based on the average of the prior two years’
earnings. After six years there will be a deemed offer and
a deemed acceptance of the remaining 49%. This written put
was not disclosed to the board. At inception the valuation
is accounted for in retained earnings as part of equity
and the profit and loss impact is accounted for as a
finance expense and an employment expense. The written put
is disclosed in derivatives (note 7) and an employment
liability in trade and other payables – non-current.
The financial impact in the affected periods are as
follows:
31 March 30 June
2015 2014
R’000 R’000
Statement of changes in equity (2 143) (31 236)
3. Restatement 3 – Acquisition vendor disclosure in share-
based payment reserve
An obligation was raised as a share-based payment
obligation in equity to acquire the remaining non-
controlling interest shareholding of 18,1% in DAWN Human
Resource Solutions Proprietary Limited. The above
treatment transferring the liability to equity was
incorrect as per paragraph 4 of IFRS 2. DAWN has updated
the statement of changes in equity (SOCIE) and share-based
payment obligation. This incorrect treatment was
highlighted by the JSE proactive monitoring process.
The financial impact in the affected periods are as

R’000 R’000
Statement of changes in equity (3 780) –
RECLASSIFICATIONS (NOTES 4 TO 8)
4. Grohe put
During 2015 the Grohe put valuation was calculated based
on a Black Scholes valuation model. A more appropriate
valuation model namely, Monte Carlo valuation method, was
used. During the prior year a net put asset was disclosed.
To enhance disclosure, the put was disclosed as an asset
and the call as a liability in the current year. The
valuation was re-performed for the comparative period and
a call option disclosed under assets and a put option
disclosed under liabilities was recognised. The net amount
remained unchanged with no profit and loss impact.
5. Consulting fees and share-based payment disclosure (SOCIE)
Consulting fees should have been disclosed as a share-
based payment expense under IFRS 2 for Collin Bishop in
respect of services rendered for the Grohe DAWN Watertech
transaction. This incorrect treatment was highlighted by
the JSE proactive monitoring process.
6. Acquisition and delivery of treasury shares (SOCIE)
Historically DAWN disclosed the movement in treasury
shares between acquisition and delivery of shares and in
the SOCIE they were set-off against each other. IAS 1.15
however, requires fair presentation through faithful
representation of the effects of transactions, other
events and conditions that occurred during a financial
period. IAS 1.106(d) specifically requires the SOCIE to
reflect a reconciliation separately disclosing the changes
between the equity position at the beginning and end of
the year. The restatement separates the disclosure in the
SOCIE. This incorrect treatment was highlighted by the JSE
proactive monitoring process.
7. Treasury shares purchased (cash flow)
Treasury shares were historically incorrectly included in
investing activities and have been reclassified to
financing activities. This incorrect treatment was
highlighted by the JSE proactive monitoring process.
8. Acquisition of non-controlling interests (cash flow)
Acquisition of non-controlling interest was historically
incorrectly included in investing activities and has been
reclassified to financing activities. This incorrect
treatment was highlighted by the JSE proactive monitoring
process.
CONSISTENCY OF PRESENTATION (NOTE 9)
9. Tax impact in equity (SOCIE)
The tax impact in equity relating to treasury shares and
share-based payment have been identified separately and
aligned with the applicable category instead of a separate
line item where it was offset. Capital Gains Tax (CGT)
relating to the disposal of treasury shares is accounted
for in equity on the basis that at a group level shares
are disclosed at cost and delivered at cost. There is
therefore no resultant CGT charge at group level. DAWN has
disclosed the CGT difference against the share-based
payment – vesting of options line in SOCIE. The tax impact
relating to the difference in tax treatment between group
(equity-settled) and company (cash-settled) is accounted
for in equity. DAWN has disclosed the equity/cash-settled
difference against the share-based payment – charge for
the period line in SOCIE. This incorrect treatment was
highlighted by the JSE proactive monitoring process.
OTHER MATTERS
The transactions described above in 1 and 2 were initiated
and executed at the time by certain executive directors and
senior management, respectively. Both transactions were
executed without the knowledge and approval of the board. A
reportable irregularity has therefore been reported by the
external auditors to the Independent Regulatory Board of
Auditors with respect to these transactions. The external
auditors have also confirmed to the Independent Regulatory
Board of Auditors that these irregularities are not
continuing. After considering the circumstances of these
transactions, as a matter of good governance, the board has
instituted the following corrective actions:
– engaged with external legal counsel to clarify DAWN’s
legal position with respect to these matters and its
relationship with the individuals in question, including
DAWN’s right of recourse against any relevant individuals;
– engaged with parties involved in the above matters to
ensure the board acts in the best interests of DAWN;
– accounted for and restated the comparative results in the
annual financial statements for these transactions; and
– the internal audit department launched detailed
investigations the into these transactions.
The board is confident that it has taken and continues to
take all the necessary steps to execute its responsibilities
in terms of the Companies Act of South Africa and the
principles of good governance as contemplated by the King
Code on Corporate Governance.

11. EVENTS AFTER THE REPORTING PERIOD
Changes to the board of directors
Chief executive officer
As announced on SENS on 26 April 2016, Derek Tod has taken a
decision to retire as chief executive officer, effective 31
May 2016. He has agreed with the board that he will
participate in an organised hand-over to the board and
interim
chief executive officer, as and when required.
Stephen Connelly, who was appointed to the board as
independent non-executive director on 1 April 2016, has
accepted the role of interim chief executive officer of DAWN,
effective 1 June 2016. He will fulfil this role until the
board has selected a permanent successor to Derek Tod. He
will
also assist the DAWN executive committee in the turnaround
strategy, which commenced recently.
The board will immediately commence with the process of
identifying and appointing a permanent successor and will in
this process consider both internal and external candidates.
Chief financial officer
The chief financial officer, Dries Ferreira, resigned from
DAWN on 14 July 2016, but agreed to remain in employment
until
31 October 2016 to ensure a smooth transition. Hanré Bester
(CA (SA), MCom (Tax)), the group financial manager who
joined DAWN during 2010, has been appointed as acting
financial director until a permanent placement can be made.
Risk and compliance officer
The risk and compliance officer and executive director, Jan
Beukes, resigned from DAWN on 14 July 2016, but agreed to
remain in employment until 31 October 2016 to ensure a smooth
transition. A suitable replacement will be recruited in due
course.
Borrowings – covenants
DAWN has breached some of its covenants and accordingly
approached Absa for a waiver of the relevant covenant
measures. On 28 June 2016 Absa consented to the non-
compliance
(breach) of covenants and waived the event of default.
DAWN’s current facility ends on 7 October 2016 and has been
re-negotiated to 7 October 2017. The new facility has similar
characteristics, but will have a quarterly step-down of R25
million per quarter in respect of the revolving credit
facility (RCF) starting 7 October 2016 and ending 7 July
2017.
The pricing has provisionally been indicated and reflects a
deteriorated credit position as well as movements in the
general yield curve.
Security requirements remain unchanged.
The carrying amount of the loan in default is R200 million
(R200 million of a RCF) and Rnil of a general banking limit
(R100 million of a general banking facility).
Disposal
Braveheart Financial Services Proprietary Limited – a DAWN
investment of 30% was sold to the majority shareholder on 30
May 2016 for an amount of R1 million.
