COMMENTARY
The disposal of The Don properties were approved by shareholders in General Meetings held on 24 October 2012 and 20 February 2013. Following these disposals, substantially all the liabilities of The Don were settled.

Subsequently, all properties were transferred between November 2012 and August 2013. Accordingly, with effect from 15 August 2013, The Don was classified as a “cash shell” in terms of the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited (“JSE”). 

The Listings Requirements required The Don to enter into an agreement relating to the acquisition of viable assets (“Acquisition”) that satisfy the conditions for listing within a period of six months failing which its listing would be suspended. 

The Don had until 15 February 2014 to enter into an agreement relating to an Acquisition. As The Don has been unable to enter into the aforementioned agreement within the requisite period of time, shareholders were advised on 19 February 2014 that caution was no longer required to be exercised when dealing in The Don’s securities, and that the JSE had advised The Don that its listing would be suspended with immediate effect.

Furthermore, on 19 February 2014 shareholders were advised that the board of directors of The Don (“the Board”) had taken the decision to make an offer to shareholders to buy back the shares in The Don at a price equal to the net asset value of The Don and thereafter to delist The Don from the JSE. The Board wishes to conclude the aforementioned offer as soon as practically possible and accordingly, shareholders will be advised of further details in this regard in due course.

BOARD COMPOSITION
As announced on SENS on 26 July 2013, the JSE granted approval on 5 July 2013 to the company employing its Financial Director, Ms Uviwe Vuyokazi Mzilikazi, on a part time basis.

BASIS OF PREPERATION
The unaudited condensed consolidated results for the six months ended 31 December 2013 have been prepared by the Financial Director, Uviwe Mzilikazi, CA(SA), in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee, the Financial Reporting Pronouncements as issued by the Financial Reporting Standards Council; the Companies Act, 2008 (Act 71 of 2008), as amended, and the Listings Requirements of JSE. The interim results have not been audited or reviewed by the Group’s auditors.

ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting policies and methods of computation applied in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial results for the six months ended 31 December 2013, which are based on reasonable judgments and estimates, are in accordance with IFRS and are consistent with those applied in the preparation of the Group’s annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2013.

CAPITAL REDUCTION
A capital reduction payment  of 16 cents per share was declared on 8 January 2014 as a capital repayment  from contributed tax capital.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
Subsequent to The Don not entering into an agreement relating to an acquisition within six months of the transfer of the last of its remaining buildings, The Don’s listing was suspended effective 19 February 2014. 

Following the suspension, and as announced on SENS on 19 February 2014, the Board has taken the decision to make an offer to shareholders to buy back the shares in The Don and thereafter to delist The Don from the JSE.

By order of the Board.
