Commentary

Dear shareholder
25 September 2017 will be remembered for the sad passing of Robert Spanjaard, 
who was the founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Spanjaard Group of 
Companies since 1960. We pay tribute to his tenure of 57 years at the helm, 
and commend his tireless devotion to the business.

We, as Spanjaard’s executive directors and management, are now tasked with 
leading the Group, and establishing a base upon which to guide the business 
into the future. We have deployed the skills of our management team to look 
for ways to modernise and explore additional markets, using additional, new 
product ranges as well as unlocking the potential of products that have been 
historically misperceived in the market.

The year under review was challenging as our export volumes decreased from
23% of total revenue to 16%, which has impacted our overall financial 
performance. These lower export volumes were largely as a result of our 
historical approach to exports, which management has addressed.

It is pleasing to report that we achieved significant overall volume growth 
of 7,5%, which somewhat offset the lower export volumes, although sales revenue 
was flat year-on-year. This was partly due to a strategic price reduction 
decision taken early in the year to increase our competitiveness in the market, 
and our increased market share and volume growth was therefore achieved at 
lower overall margins.

We are pleased to report a 15% growth year-on-year in the food products sector 
of our business. We diversified our customer base significantly during the year, 
which has assisted in this growth. We are encouraged by this performance and 
anticipate further growth in our food products in the coming year and beyond.

In the consumer sector, improved sales seen in the automotive spares businesses 
was encouraging. Sales in the industrial sector were lower, as many of our 
customers in the mining sector have been impacted by rightsizing activities 
and shaft closures for a number of years. We regrettably lost a contract on 
certain power stations in the prior year, which continues to negatively affect
our industrial sector performance.

We are also pleased to report that a large quantity of aerosol cans, initially 
manufactured for another contract, have been successfully repurposed and have 
been fully utilised. This has now resolved a legacy issue, in terms of related 
storage requirements and the recovery of materials cost. Furthermore, we can 
report the end of a loss-making contract for a major retailer, and we have 
subsequently filled that production capacity by manufacturing for more 
profitable orders.

Our cash position, although tight, continued to be very well managed, as were 
our costs. Our debtors were firmly under control, with excellent collections 
and bad debts being insignificant for the year under review.

We take a conservative approach in this regard, and customers are required
to achieve a clear credit rating from Credit Guarantee before being supplied. 
As a cost-conscious business, our head office costs have been very well 
controlled, reducing our administration costs by 3% across the Group, with all 
write-offs included.

Coppermet (Pty) Ltd had been a loss-making business for Spanjaard for a number 
of years, and officially closed when operations were discontinued, subsequent to 
year-end, at the end of April 2018. Coppermet was unable to remain competitive due 
to the availability of cheaper alternative materials, particularly those from China. 
Coppermet will continue to trade in limited capacities. The positive impact of 
this closure is largely financial, and sharpens the focus on our core, more 
profitable businesses. We have made provision in our financial results for stock 
write-offs, impairments of assets held for sale at the financial year end and 
retrenchment costs.

Due to our financial performance during the current financial year, we are not 
declaring a dividend.
