OVERVIEW OF RESULTS                                                             
Basis of preparation                                                            
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with                  
International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and the accounting         
policies as set out in the 2007 annual report are consistent with those         
applied in the 2006 annual report.                                              
In terms of paragraph 8.60 of the JSE Listing Requirements shareholders are     
advised that the group`s auditors, Burn Reynolds and Company, have audited      
the group annual financial statements. A copy of their unqualified audit        
opinion is available for inspection at the company`s registered office.         
Financial highlights                                                            
Group turnover for the financial year under review increased by 64% to          
R198,215 million compared to R120,883 million the previous year. The            
increase in group turnover is mainly due as a result of the purchase of the     
remaining 50% share holding in the mine ventilation and supplies business       
and the consolidation of these results into the Group as at                     
28 February 2007.                                                               
At the operating level it is pleasing to note that profit before                
depreciation and finance cost amounted to R11,357 million compared to           
R9,719 million for the previous year. The overall improved performance can      
be attributed to the successful management of controls, lower interest          
rates during the year and continued economic growth in both the mining and      
construction sectors, being the sectors that our core businesses operate        
in.                                                                             
Net profit after taxation amounted to R6,638 million compared to R5,274         
million in the 2006 financial year. Headline earnings per share increased       
by 38,8% to 2,36 cents while the net asset value per share increased by         
16,4% to 26,2 cents per share.                                                  
REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES OF OPERATIONAL SUBSIDIARIES                                
Major operations                                                                
(a)  Witbank Brickworks (1961) (Pty) Limited                                    
    Sales for the year declined by 2,7% from R67,180 million to                 
    R65,374 million resulting in a decline in operating and                     
    investment income of 30,8%. Management remains confident that               
there will be a significant improvement resulting from ongoing              
    improvement to production efficiencies as well as the high                  
    current demand and buoyant market.                                          
(b)  BroKrew Industrial (Pty) Limited                                           
As previously reported the remaining 50% shareholding in the                
    mine ventilation and supplies joint venture was acquired at                 
    the beginning of the financial year and the group restructured              
    with BroKrew Industrial (Pty) Limited becoming a wholly owned               
subsidiary of the Kairos Group.                                             
    Due to the consolidation of the full results and the sustained              
    strength of the rand, sales increased during the year under                 
    review by 150,8%. The company remains a major supplier of                   
ventilation equipment to the mining sector.                                 
    Operating and investment income increased from R4,611 million               
    to R6,471 million for the year under review.                                
    Management is in the process of implementing various expansion              
strategies.                                                                 
Minor operations                                                                
(c)  Coal Reserves                                                              
    A strong emphasis has during the last year been placed on                   
entering the coal mining arena. Further to the activities                   
    regarding our Uitspan Reserves as previously reported, Kairos               
    Coal & Exploration (Pty) Ltd was formed with its main focus                 
    being to obtain prospecting permits on various strategic                    
reserves with the aim to further obtaining mining licenses.                 
    The rationale for this strategy is Kairos` strong position                  
    regarding skills and infrastructure already at our disposal at              
    our brick making facilities as well as a very strong demand                 
for coal locally and abroad. With some prospecting permits                  
    already allotted, and various other applications lodged and                 
    reserves identified, prospects for the future look  promising.              
    Earnings from this venture should benefit the group from                    
financial year 2011 onwards.                                                
(d)  Township Development                                                       
    The subsidiaries Ten Cradock Avenue (Pty) Ltd and Estlind                   
    Investments (Pty) Ltd are the owners of prime development land              
comprising more than 200 hectares in the township of Witbank,               
    Mpumalanga. Negotiations are far advanced for the proclamation              
    of various residential, retail and industrial sites. This                   
    project should start contributing to earnings within the next               
24 months.                                                                  
SKILLS DEVELOPMENT                                                              
Training and development programmes are continuing, providing skills            
training to all levels of staff.                                                
EMPLOYMENT EQUITY                                                               
The company is complying with the Act and encourages the internal movement      
and promotion of employees.                                                     
STRATEGY                                                                        
The company`s strategy remains unchanged. Its management will remain            
focused on its core revenue-producing businesses - Witbank Brickworks           
(1961) (Pty) Limited and BroKrew Industrial (Pty) Limited and will              
investigate appropriate acquisitions as they may be identified.                 
APPRECIATION                                                                    
I wish to record my appreciation and thanks to all management, staff and        
directors for their integral contribution, loyalty and support over the         
past 12 months.
