COMMENTARY
DIRECTORS` STATEMENT
Your directors take pleasure in presenting the audited results of the Group for
the year ended 31 December 2006.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The annual financial statements for the 12 months ended 31 December 2006 have
been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards
(IFRS), IAS 34 and the Companies Act of South Africa. The accounting policies
applied are consistent with that of the previous year.
DIRECTORSHIP CHANGES
Mr F Titi resigned from the board on 30 June 2006. The Company takes this
opportunity to thank him for his services to the Company.
ASSET SETTLEMENT AND DISPOSAL PROCESS
NAIL exited its position in the African Bank debtors book. NAIL contributed a
sum of R12,3 million in a transaction with CMS Group (Pty) Limited to exit its
position. R12,3 million was provided for in the 2005 financial year.
PRIMEDIA LIMITED ("PRIMEDIA") OFFER
NAIL announced on 17 December 2004 that it had received a firm intention to make
an offer from Primedia to acquire all the issued ordinary and `N` ordinary
shares ("NAIL share") in NAIL as one indivisible transaction. Shareholders are
referred to the announcement for the full terms of the offer.
The salient terms of the offer are:
* The offer price of R0,356 per NAIL share in cash. NAIL will have no assets
except 24,9% of Kaya FM (Pty) Limited, the various loans to P4 Radio Cape Town
(Pty) Limited and P4 Radio Durban (Pty) Limited ("P4 Loans") and various claims
and preference shares in Motsamai Media (Pty) Limited and Makana SPV (Pty)
Limited ("the SPV interests") which hold 24,9% of Kaya FM.
* The offer price is reduced by R0,146 per NAIL share if the SPV interests have
been sold or recovered and R0,059 per NAIL share if the P4 Loans have been sold
or repaid.
* Interest in the event NAIL has not disposed the SPV interests and the P4 Loans
will amount to 0,228 cents per month from 1 April 2005.
Conditions precedent
* NAIL`s disposal of Hertz
* Regulatory approvals, to the extent required, including but not limited to the
JSE Securities Exchange South Africa, the Securities Regulation Panel and the
Competition Authority.
Hertz was sold during the 2005 financial year. The Competition Appeal Court on
19 November 2007, upheld an application by African Media Entertainment Limited
("AME") to the Competition Appeal Court to set aside a decision by the
Competition Tribunal to unconditionally approve the merger between Primedia,
Capricorn Capital Partners and NAIL. The Competition Appeal Court has referred
the merger back to the Competition Tribunal for consideration and determination.
However, the implication of the offer is that NAIL will have no assets other
than Kaya FM before the offer can become operative.
The settlement of the SPV interests and P4 Loans has the effect of reducing the
Primedia offer to R0,151 per NAIL share in cash.
AME OFFER
AME made an offer on or about 13 July 2005 to acquire NAIL`s 24,9% shareholding
in Kaya FM (Pty) Limited ("Kaya") for R21 million. The sale by NAIL of Kaya
would require shareholder approval. NAIL received written confirmation from
shareholders controlling more than 50% of NAIL voting interests that they would
not support a sale of Kaya out of NAIL. This fact was communicated to AME. On 12
January 2006 AME increased their offer for Kaya to R25 million. The NAIL
controlling shareholders have reviewed the revised offer and have indicated that
their original position has not changed. This fact has been communicated to AME.
CONTINGENT ASSET
At the date of the sale of KFM to Primedia, KFM was in the process of
challenging the South African Revenue Services ("SARS") disallowance of a trade
mark write-off and penalties and interest of R20,7 million.
In the event that KFM is successful against SARS, the purchase price that
Primedia paid to acquire KFM will be increased by 97% of the sums recovered and
the present value of future trade mark deductions. NAIL bears all costs in this
regard.
REVIEW OF RESULTS
The results are not comparable with the previous year as Hertz was sold in the
previous financial year. The results are the attributable results of Kaya FM and
Head Office activities for the year.
AUDITED RESULTS BY INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
The results have been audited by the joint independent auditors,
PricewaterhouseCoopers Inc and SizweNtsaluba vsp. Their unqualified audit
opinion on the consolidated financial statements is available for inspection at
the company`s registered office.
The audited annual financial statements will be posted within 10 days.
EVENTS OCCURRING POST YEAR END
A special dividend of 35 cents per share was declared payable on 18 June 2007.
The dividend payable amounted to R44,4 million and secondary taxation on
companies amounted to R5,5 million.
