together with the financial statements identified in the auditor's review
report. The auditor's report does not necessarily report on all of the

GROUP PROFILE
Winhold Limited ('Winhold') is a holding company with its main
investments being in its 74,9% owned subsidiaries Gundle Plastics Group
(Pty) Ltd ('Gundle') and Inmins Trading (Pty) Ltd ('Inmins').
Gundle comprises three divisions, the Industrial and Consumer Flexible
Packaging Division with its factories in Germiston and Swaziland, the
Flexible Building, Construction and Agricultural Division in Springs
(including the Geosynthetics Dam Lining Division) and the Trading
Division with branches in the main coastal cities, Bloemfontein and
Mbombela. Gundle manufactures polyethylene bags, construction sheeting,
consumer and industrial packaging, agricultural film and dam linings and
distributes to the agricultural, chemical, construction, food processing,
industrial and consumer markets, as well as installing dam linings in
sub-Sahara Africa.
Inmins comprises 18 strategically located operations servicing the mining
and industrial sectors with a wide range of consumable and maintenance
products, and includes divisions specialising in hose, chain and sprocket
systems and conveyor belting.
COMMENTARY
Due to the implementation of the turnaround strategy at one of the major
subsidiaries, the profitability of the group was negatively affected as
shown by the reduction in earnings of 40% to 13,1 cents per share.
Turnover reduced by 6%. Good performances by the other divisions have
nonetheless enabled the company to declare a dividend.
Investment income reduced due to the investment in preference shares
being redeemed during the year. The effective tax rate is 12% after
utilising tax losses from prior years. The reduction in receivables
relates to the reduced turnover referred to in the review of operations
below. The repayment of the BEE transaction loans and the settlement of
asset finance resulted in a reduction of borrowings.
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Gundle
One of the manufacturing operations was subject to a turnaround strategy,
which was completed during the second half of the year. The
implementation of this strategy meant changed management, a major
reduction of 39% in headcount, change of behavioural patterns and the
establishment of a new culture, enforcing more stringent controls and the
introduction of new management techniques. The reduced labour force and
new management bought into these changes and a new spirit is developing -
so much so that the last month of the financial year showed a much
improved performance. The breakeven point has been reduced dramatically
as a result of inefficiencies such as scrap and overtime being addressed.
Market conditions remain tough, but we trust that the major losses have
been halted. More throughput remains the goal.
As per the half year, no major projects were secured by the dam lining
division during the second half of the financial year. This related to a
much reduced profitability of 60,9% versus the previous bumper year.
However, the results achieved were as per budget, and, as such, the
division did well.
Improvement in the construction and agricultural division ensured that
the market share increased and the division achieved its best ever
profitability.
The Gundle trading division improved its profitability by 27% in a
difficult overtraded market.
Repositioning the Swaziland division continues as more and more market
share is captured in Swaziland. Management changes and better
productivity should lead to consistent future profitability.
Repi Colourants
Repi Colourants continued producing impressive results due to the
excellent service provided. This division continues to go from strength
to strength.
Inmins
The industrial division's overall profitability improved by 88% against
the prior year. Two operations did extremely well, although the market
remained depressed and difficult.
In the mining division, four operations were merged into two and the cost
savings should produce improved future results. The difficult economic
climate continued causing the profitability to reduce drastically.
It is pleasing to report that, overall, Inmins' profitability increased
by 25,9%.
PROSPECTS
Gundle
The turnaround strategy in the largest subsidiary should bear fruit soon
and a major improvement is expected and required in the coming year.
Although the dam lining operation continues to supply excellent services,
a major contract will make a substantial improvement to its
profitability. In the other construction and agricultural markets, new
developments and proactive management should continue to produce good
results. The trading division is well positioned, has good management,
and should continue to do well.
Inmins
The cost cutting exercise in the mining division should reduce losses and
management will continue to act proactively. However, the economic
mining climate will have to improve considerably for results to improve
meaningfully. The challenges in the industrial division will continue,
but our market positioning should ensure continued profitability.
APPRECIATION
The support from customers, suppliers, financial institutions and
shareholders in a very difficult year is highly appreciated. The
commitment of the management team and staff is once again noted. The
support of the chairman, board, management and staff, customers and
suppliers, cannot be overstated.
