COMMENTS                                                                        
Introduction                                                                    
The results presented are for the nine month period ended 30th September        
2007 while the comparable period represents a full twelve months` results       
for the year ended 31st December 2006. During the reporting period Marshall     
Monteagle Holdings Societe Anonyme increased its interest in the Group to       
69,7% via a share for share exchange. Furthermore, the company changed its      
name from Marshalls Limited to Merchant & Industrial Properties Limited.        
Review of operating results                                                     
Profit before interest amounted to R5,100,000 (2006: R6,496,000 restated).      
Interest expense decreased to R2,108,000 (2006: R2,821,000 restated).           
Headline earnings per share has been based on Circular 8/2007 and equates to    
10,2 cents per share (2006: 16,8 cents per share restated). A comparison        
between the periods disclosed is distorted because of the change of year end    
but should the current period`s results be annualised then there is a           
comparable decrease of 12,5% to 14,7 cents per share. Excluding the             
corporate transaction costs of R589,000, which are effectively once off         
charges, a true earnings number of 18,1 cents per share results for the         
current period.                                                                 
Property division                                                               
As reported on in the 2006 annual report, the Group disposed of one property    
for a net disposal price of R13 million. During the same period it acquired     
one light industrial property in Durban for R7,3 million.                       
Yields offered by sellers for properties on the market have not increased as    
a result of the recent increases in the prime interest rate. Consequently       
the Group has again found it difficult to acquire suitable stock within its     
operational areas of Cape Town and Durban.                                      
At the period end the Group`s property portfolio was valued by CB Richard       
Ellis at R119,050,000 (2006: R105,150,000 restated). Properties held at both    
reporting period ends were valued at R111,150,000 (2006: R92,100,000).          
Certain properties in central Durban have been considered as possible           
development opportunities. The Group`s valuation referred to above reflected    
a value of R37,200,000 for these properties based on a current rental use       
basis. Taking into account the current climate of property development in       
South Africa, these properties may have an alternative development value of     
up to double the current use value.                                             
Investment division                                                             
The market value of the foreign listed share portfolio was R27,927,000          
(2006: R25,783,000 restated). In Sterling terms the portfolio value has         
increased by approximately 6,5% through a combination of new acquisitions       
and market gains.                                                               
Prior year adjustment                                                           
There has been uncertainty and disagreement on the correct tax rate to use      
on revaluations of investment properties above cost. The Group has decided      
to use the company tax rate as opposed to the capital gains tax rate. The       
effect of this change on opening equity is as follows -                         
Increase in taxation charge for 2006         R3,883,000                         
Decrease in equity at beginning of 2006      R5,290,000                         
Total decrease in equity for 2006            R9,173,000                         
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)and IAS 34                    
These provisional financial statements have been prepared in accordance with    
IFRS and IAS 34 consistent with that of the prior period except for the         
effect of the prior year adjustment referred to above.
