The Group experienced difficult trading conditions throughout the financial year
due to the general decrease in residential construction, home improvement and   
retail activity. A decrease in sales activity, selling price deflation,         
increased bad debts expense and the impact of the derecognition of a deferred   
taxation asset resulted in headline earnings of 2.3 cents per share, well below 
headline earnings of 6.8 cents per share for the year ended 31 December 2008.   
Excluding sales from businesses opened during the second half of 2008, revenue  
for the year ended 31 December 2009 was 8% below that of the previous           
corresponding period. Including sales from these new businesses, revenue was 5% 
higher than that of the year ended 31 December 2008.                            
The deterioration of the debtors` book resulted in an increase in the impairment
allowance of R9 670 615 (2008: R1 562 727). In addition, bad debts of R6 027 188
(2008: R3 648 175) were written off during the year. Consequently, the bad debt 
expense for 2009 of R15 697 803 was R10 486 901 more than that of the previous  
year.                                                                           
Applying IFRS in respect of deferred taxation assets, a previously recognised   
deferred taxation asset of R934 079 relating to one of the Group`s manufacturing
businesses was derecognised. This deferred taxation asset, if recognised, would 
have increased to R2 102 964. As a result of not recognising the potential      
deferred taxation asset, profit for the period was reduced by R2 102 964.       
The Group`s balance sheet reflects a net tangible asset value of R111.5 million 
(2008: R122.9 million) after the repurchase of 59 046 443 shares on the open    
market at a cost of R17 849 261. Net interest-bearing borrowings, after         
adjusting for cash resources, was 6% of net tangible asset value at             
31 December 2009.                                                               
There has been a significant reduction in the level of inventories carried      
compared to 31 December 2008 due to improved working capital management.        
Consequently, reduced purchasing activity has led to the reduction in the level 
of creditors at 31 December 2009.                                               
The board is of the opinion that while the recession, in particular residential 
construction and consumer spending, has impacted severely on the Group`s        
headline earnings, its solid financial structure will allow it to weather the   
tough trading conditions.                                                       
Prospects                                                                       
Management believes that as bank lending and residential construction activity  
resumes we can expect moderate sales growth and improved profitability in the   
ensuing financial year.                                                         
The Group will continue to focus on increasing its market share and             
profitability while maintaining and improving working capital efficiency.       
While the global and local economic environment remains uncertain, we believe   
that the worst is behind us and that steady economic growth will continue beyond
2010.
