JSE Limited Listings Requirements.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL RESULTS
1. Deferred revenue
Revenue from the sale of township property is recognised when legal title
passes or when the equitable interest in the property vests in the buyer. Where
there are further substantial acts to complete in the development of township
property, revenue is deferred and recognised as the acts are performed.
Revenue is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the
development of the township property at the balance sheet date, as measured by
the proportion that land and development costs incurred to date bear to the
estimated total land and development costs.
The substantial acts required to complete the development of township property
within Zimbali South and West are expected to be completed within the next
twelve months. Therefore the revenue that has been deferred in terms of the
revenue recognition policy relating thereto is likely to be recognised within
the next twelve months.

COMMENTS
GROUP PROFILE
IFA SA`s shares were listed on the Main Board of JSE Limited ("the JSE") on 27
February 2006. IFA H&R Kuwait holds the majority interest with an 85%
shareholding. Through five subsidiaries, IFA SA owns:
a 50% stake in the development of the multi-million Rand Zimbali Coastal
Resort which is being jointly developed through IFA Hotels & Resorts (South
Africa (Pty) Limited ("IFA Hotels") with Moreland-Zimbali Resorts (Pty)
Limited, a subsidiary of Tongaat Hulett Developments (Pty) Limited which
owns the remaining 50% interest ("the Mifaz joint venture"). As announced
in March 2007 the Mifaz joint venture acquired a further 427 hectares of
land between Zimbali and the proposed King Shaka International Airport from
the Tongaat-Hulett Group. This brings the total amount of additional land
acquired since June 2006 to 681 hectares ("the additional Mifaz land").
(254 hectares of land on the south bank of the Tongaat River was acquired in
June 2006.)
the exclusive Zimbali Lodge on KwaZulu-Natal`s north coast, rated as one of
the world`s top hotels. This is held through IFA Zimbali Lodge (Pty) Limited
("IFA Zimbali");
26,57% in Boschendal Limited ("Boschendal"), the world-renowned estate in the
Western Cape, having acquired a further 7,32% in May 2007. The interest is held
through a wholly owned subsidiary, IFA Boschendal (Pty) Limited ("IFA
Boschendal"). The acquisition furthers the strategy of parent company, IFA H &
R Kuwait, to expand its reach as a global developer of mixed-use integrated
resorts. It further reinforces IFA H & R Kuwait`s commitment to transformation
in South Africa as it ensures that IFA SA becomes a more integral contributor to
Boschendal`s transformation, empowerment and development plans.
an estate agency, IFA Hotels and Resorts 8 (Pty) Ltd ("IFA Estates") which
has the sole mandate to sell the R1,1 billion Fairmont Zimbali project
offering a hotel, luxury residences, a golf course and leisure facilities.
This subsidiary is held through a wholly owned subsidiary, IFA Assets (Pty)
Ltd ("IFA Assets").
a 50% stake in the Namibian joint venture formed with the Ohlthaver & List
Group ("the Olifa joint venture") to redevelop three hotels - The Strand
Hotel in Swakopmund, Kings Den Lodge on the banks of the Chobe River and
Mokuti Lodge located at the gateway to the renowned Etosha Park game
reserve. The Olifa joint venture will also develop a fourth site in Windhoek
into a five star hotel. IFA H & R Kuwait has introduced five star
international hotelier, Kempinski Hotels, to Namibia to operate these hotels
going forward.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
IFA HOTELS - As expected, recognised revenue from land sales has decreased by
39.5% causing total revenue to decrease from R127,3 million in the previous year
to R78,6 million. The decline is largely attributable to the under supply of
land inventory because of the near sell-out of land in the South and West phases
of the Zimbali Coastal Resort, following bouyant demand. Property re-sales in
the resort are up 101% to R361,1 million in 2007 from R179,6 million in the
previous corresponding period as a result of the increasing demand for Zimbali
property. This is a positive indicator for sales in the next phase of
development, Zimbali Lakes, which is set to begin in the 2008 financial year.
The method of accounting for revenue has resulted in deferred revenue being
released to the income statement which has countered, to some extent, the
slowing in land sales. After taking into account the positive impact of a
reduction in operating costs, EBITDA only decreased by 13.8% from R55,9 million
to R48,2 million as a result of this increased efficiency.
IFA ZIMBALI has performed well and posted improved revenue of R38,0 million
reflecting an increase of 9% from R34,8 million for the previous year. Earnings
before interest, taxation , depreciation and amortisation ("EBITDA") also grew
by a significant 25% to R5,4 million. The net asset value of IFA Zimbali has
increased by R12,2 million as a result of the revaluation of land and buildings
at year end.
IFA BOSCHENDAL - The 2 400 ha Boschendal estate is still in the planning phase
and is accordingly incurring costs in anticipation of future revenues. An after
tax loss of R6,1 million was recognised.
IFA ESTATES - IFA Assets` estate agency has the sole mandate to sell the R1,1
billion Fairmont Zimbali project. While sales only began in January 2007, costs
were incurred during the period in setting up the operation. An after tax loss
of R3,7 million was incurred during this period and will be recovered through
commission earned as reservations convert to binding sales.
IFA SA - IFA SA is the holding and administration company of the group. Net
profit after tax of R7,1 million was achieved for the year.
PROSPECTS
IFA Hotels
A key focus for IFA Hotels remains the assembly on the balance sheet of land
inventory for development of future phases of the Zimbali Coastal Resort and
recent land acquisitions have been made in this regard. The current phase of
the Zimbali Coastal Resort accounts for less than 30% of IFA`s total
development potential in Zimbali.
It is further anticipated that planning approvals will be obtained in Q4 2007
for the 300 hectare extension of the Zimbali Coastal Resort - "Zimbali Lakes".
This should generate sales beginning in the 2008 financial year. Through the
Mifaz joint venture, IFA SA stands to benefit from 50% of the sales revenue and
attributable profits.
Whilst the additional Mifaz land offers further opportunity for expanding the
current Zimbali resort with additional residential nodes as well as introducing
a significant business/commercial node close to the new airport, planning
thereof is not expected to begin until construction of the new airport has
commenced.
IFA Boschendal
Boschendal is expected to generate in excess of R1,7 billion in sales going
forward, of which approximately R660 million has already been reserved. IFA
SA`s increased stake in Boschendal to 26,57% should accordingly impact
positively on group revenues.
IFA Estates
Approximately R176 million of sales in the Fairmont Zimbali project have
already been reserved. It is anticipated that related commissions will begin to
be recognised in the 2008 financial year as these sales become legally binding.
IFA Namibia
Revenues from running the 3 existing hotels that form part of the Olifa joint
venture following their redevelopment and/or refurbishment should begin
impacting on results in the 2008 financial year. The Olifa joint venture will
also be considering the best mixed use of these sites to maximize values. The
development of the land in Windhoek is also likely to commence in 2008.
The investment to date in Boschendal, IFA Estates and IFA Namibia has laid the
foundation for long-term sustainable profits. Following capital expenditure on
set-up and development costs, the operations should begin to yield benefit for
the group in the year ahead.
DIVIDEND
The group and company are currently investing profits back into the business to
enable future growth. As such the directors have decided not to declare a
dividend for this period.
ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
The annual general meeting of the company will be held at Zimbali Lodge, Zimbali
Coastal Resort, Kwa-Zulu Natal on Thursday, 6 September 2007 at 9:00.
