SEGMENTAL REPORTING

IFRS 8 requires an entity to report financial and descriptive information about its reportable
segments, which are operating segments or aggregations of operating segments that meet
specific criteria. Operating segments are components of an entity about which separate
financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision
maker.

Therefore, the Group determines and presents its operating segments based on the
information that is internally provided to the Chief Executive Officer, who is the chief
operating decision maker.

Furthermore, a segment is a distinguishable component of the group that is engaged either
in providing related products or services (business segment), in providing products or
services within a particular economic environment (geographical segment), which is subject
to risks and returns that are different from those of the other segments.

The Group does not have different operating segments. The business is conducted in South
Africa and is managed at a central head office with no branches. The Group is managed as
one operating unit.

All revenues from external customers originate in South Africa, or from operations in South
Africa.

The support structures implemented over the last couple of years are adequate to provide
great support to the Group’s salon footprint and technology has been introduced to take this
support for franchisees to the next level, which is required for sustainability and to create
brand equity.

FINANCIAL RESULTS

Group revenue decreased by 4.5% to R96.5 million (2016: R101.1 million) mainly as a result
of 7 new franchised salons opening during the financial year in comparison to 16 during the
2016 financial year. Gross profit has decreased by 5.4% to R56.0 million (2016:
R59.2 million) and gross profit margins decreased marginally to 57.9% (2016: 58.5%), due to
the Group commencing distribution of various brands to its franchise footprint that attract
lower margins. It is the strategy of the Group to distribute only approved brands in order to
standardise a quality product offering to consumers.

Operating expenses include various once-off costs such as the impairment of corporate
salons of R9.9 million; legal fees of R1.5 million; retrenchment costs due to the outsourcing
of its warehousing and distribution function of R650k; as well as the establishment of the
new Imbalie Beauty Training Academy of R1.5 million; and additional marketing fees to
launch the Skinderm skin care range to the amount of R2.1 million. Once these items listed
are eliminated from operating expenses, operating expenses decreased by 1.3% to
R61.2 million (2016: R62.0 million), as a result of cost savings achieved by the group
relocating to a more affordable head office and the ongoing efforts of the management team
to reduce overheads.

Loss per share increased to a loss of 2.52 cents (2016: loss of 0.29 cents) and the headline
loss per share was 2.51 cents (2015: loss 0.29 cents).

Property, plant and equipment increased to R16.1 million due to the acquisition by the Group
of its own building during the 2017 year.

The increase in intangible assets in the Summary Statement of Financial Position to
R21.9 million relate to the following:

    -   establishment costs incurred prior to the opening of the Imbalie Beauty Academy in
        Woodmead; and
    -   the upgrade and launch of the Skinderm skin care range for the Perfect 10 franchise
        group.
Inventory decreased to R22.5 million of which R9.9 million relates to the Groups’ own beauty
salons against which an impairment of R9.9 million was made. Product inventories
distributed to beauty salons decreased by R3.0 million due to more effective stock
management.

Other long-term and short-term financial liabilities increased with the R8.5 million which
relate to the bond obtained to purchase the property in Woodmead and R6 million included
short-term financial liabilities received in bridging facilities to fund the ongoing working
capital requirements of the Group.

The Group had no material capital commitments for the purchase of property, plant and
equipment as at 28 February 2017.

BASIS OF PREPARATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with the
requirements of the JSE Limited Listings Requirements for provisional reports and the
requirements of the Companies Act of South Africa. The Listings Requirements require
provisional reports to be prepared in accordance with the framework concepts and the
measurement and recognition requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards
(IFRS) and the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices
Committee and Financial Pronouncements as issued by Financial Reporting Standards
Council and to also, as a minimum, contain the information required by IAS 34 Interim
Financial Reporting. The accounting policies applied in the preparation of the condensed
consolidated financial statements are in terms of IFRS and are consistent with those applied
in the previous consolidated annual financial statements

The provisional condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance
with the going concern principle under the historical cost basis as modified by the fair value
accounting of certain assets where required or permitted by IFRS.

These provisional condensed consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial
results of the company and its subsidiaries.

The preparation of the provisional condensed consolidated financial statements for the year
ended 28 February 2017 was supervised by Imbalie Beauty’s Financial Director, Jarryd
Prince, CA (S.A.). The directors take full responsibility for the preparation of these
provisional condensed consolidated financial statements for the year ended 28 February
2017.

These condensed consolidated financial statements for the year ended 28 February 2017
have been reviewed by Nexia SAB&T, who expressed an unmodified review conclusion. The
auditor’s report contained the following Emphasis of Matter paragraph:

MATERIAL UNCERTAINTY RELATED TO GOING CONCERN

We draw attention to the statement of going concern paragraph of the condensed
consolidated financial statements contained in the accompanying provisional report. The
ability of the Group to fund short term operations in the foreseeable future is largely
dependent on the ability of the directors to arrange for working capital funding and the
realisation of the income from potential expansion opportunities as more fully described in
the note pertaining to going concern. These conditions, along with the matters set forth in the
notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements, indicate that a material
uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the group’s ability to continue as a going
concern. Our conclusion is not modified in respect of this matter.
STATEMENT OF GOING CONCERN

The financial results have been prepared on the going concern basis as the directors are of
the view that the Group has adequate resources in place to continue in operation for the
foreseeable future.

While management are aware of the cash-flow pressures and significant liquidity uncertainty
at year-end, they continue to assess the situation as one whereby the group is able to
service its debts that will become due in the next 12 months and also fund operational losses
that may arise. Management has developed, and is in the process of a strategy to address
the liquidity and cash flow constraints - which includes:
- A potential to tap into the current mortgage bond facility which has approximate
    drawdown potential of R5 million.
- The Group is in strategic conversations with a partner, to develop an express salon
    concept which will increase overall brand awareness.
- The Group is ready to introduce exports with one of its previous trading partners.

Management is confident that the implementation of the above strategic interventions will
improve and address the sales, profitability, liquidity and the cash flow position of the Group
over the next twelve months.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The company concluded an issue of shares subsequent to year end whereby 4 166 666
were issued in terms of the conclusion of the Scinderm transaction.

PROSPECTS

Imbalie Beauty remains optimistic about the future, following the continued strengthening of
its management team in Education and Marketing. The Group will continue to focus on the
continued opening of more successful beauty salons and the disposing of its corporate
salons.

Imbalie Beauty remains steadfast on its journey to transform and empower women working
in our Group, to upgrade its existing product offering and to innovate, offer better marketing,
pricing and support structures to its franchisees.

Statements contained in this announcement, regarding the prospects of the Group, have not
been reviewed or audited by the Group’s external auditors.

DIVIDEND POLICY

The Group will not pay a dividend for the 2017 year.

CONTINGENCIES

The directors are not aware of any material contingent liability which existed at the reporting
date and up to the date of this report requiring disclosure.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS - FAIR VALUES AND RISK MANAGEMENT

Fair value measurements are categorised into Level 1, 2 or 3 based on the degree to which
the inputs to the fair value measurements are observable and the significance of the inputs
to the fair value measurement in its entirety, which are described as follows:
-      Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or
       liabilities that the entity can access at the measurement date;
-      Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices included within Level 1, that are
       observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
-      Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

The Group only carries land and buildings and non-current assets held for sale at revalued
amounts.

    Land and buildings                    The fair value of land and buildings is determined by
                                          applying the income approach valuation technique,
                                          which incorporates the determination of discount
                                          rate containing an appropriate risk premium.


The carrying amount of all significant financial instruments approximates the fair value.

WRITE DOWN OF CORPORATE SALONS

The Group’s strategy is to focus on its vision which is to be the leading and most desirable
beauty and wellness franchise group. The Group therefore during the 2017 year focused on
selling its corporate salons to prospective owner-operators as it is proven that the franchise
model is more successful when the franchise is managed by an owner-operator. This
allowed the Group to reduce its corporate salons from 27 to 15 at year end. The remaining
corporate salons at year end were each evaluated and a clear strategy to manage these
remaining corporate salons was implemented by the management team. The profitability,
the remainder of the lease agreement coupled with the price that a potential buyer would pay
for the business were factors considered in determining the fair value adjustment of the
corporate salons. The adjustment resulted in an impairment of R9.9 million of corporate
salons.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Group's financial risk management objectives and policies are consistent with those
disclosed in the consolidated annual financial statements as at and for the year ended 28
February 2016.
