Total Trading performance of the Group has increased by 3.0% to R415.8 million from
the prior year, which is commendable considering the difficult trading economic
conditions. However this solid trading did not translate into profits mainly due to the
significant other losses of R443.3 million incurred during the year which mostly comprised
the following:
• Loan receivables owing by Robor of R68.3 million have been written off;
• Impairments recognised to carry the discontinued operations at fair value less costs to
sell in accordance with IFRS 5 Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued
Operations, include R154.8 million and R59.3 million in respect of the Africa Associates
and Media, Broadcast and Content businesses, respectively;
• An adjustment to the contingent consideration owing on the acquisition of the Group’s
interest in Bothma Branding Solutions of R46.5 million;
• Once-off costs relating to the relocation of the various operations of the Hirt & Carter
Group to one facility of R46.9 million; and
• Realised loss arising on disposal of subsidiary Smartcall Technology Solutions of
R16.4 million and losses of R27.3 million in respect of the subsidiary Consolidated
Steel Industries (“CSI”) which was disposed of during the current year.
