Standards ( IFRS ) , the International Financial Reporting Interpretations

the Companies Act of South Africa and in compliance with the Group`s accounting
policies.
The condensed consolidated financial results have been audited by BDO Spencer

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
are expected to be completed within the next eighteen months. Therefore the
revenue that has been deferred in terms of the revenue recognition policy is
likely to be recognised within the next twelve months.

COMMENTS
GROUP PROFILE
IFA HR Kuwait holds the majority interest with an 85% shareholding. Through
six subsidiaries, IFA SA owns:
IFA Zimbali Lodge (Pty) Ltd ("IFA Zimbali")
IFA Zimbali is the owner of the Fairmont Zimbali Lodge which is operated by
Fairmont Hotels & Resorts. The Lodge is a magnificent five star boutique hotel
with 76 luxurious rooms and has been rated by Conde Nast Traveller magazine as
one of the top hotels in the world. It is located amongst indigenous
semitropical gardens, and overlooks the signature hole of the scenic Tom
Weiskopf-designed championship golf course, the magnificent lakes and
conservation area and the Indian Ocean beyond.
IFA Hotels & Resorts (South Africa)(Pty) Ltd ("IFA Hotels")
In 2003, IFA Hotels formed a joint venture with Tongaat Hulett Developments
(Pty) Ltd ("THD") to participate in the development of the Zimbali Coastal
Resort. IFA Hotels is responsible for the sales and marketing and THD is
responsible for the technical and development functions thereof. The Zimbali
Coastal Resort covers 3,7 million square metres (370 hectares) of coastal
forest estate with 3,5 km of coastline. The Zimbali Lakes development covers
3 million square metres (300 hectares) and is adjacent to the Zimbali Coastal
Resort. The Tongaat Hulett / IFA Resort Developments ("TIFAZ") joint venture
has also secured 681 hectares of land between greater Zimbali and the King
Shaka International Airport currently under construction. The principal
business of the TIFAZ joint venture is the subdivision and servicing of land
in greater Zimbali for subsequent sale.
IFA Boschendal Investments (Pty) Ltd ("IFA Boschendal)
IFA Boschendal has acquired a 26,57% stake in Boschendal Limited. The company
has development plans for the 2 400 hectare Boschendal estate near Franschhoek,
which includes an upmarket retirement village with 500 individual homes, a
boutique hotel with upwards of 120 rooms and a mixed-use development of a
shopping centre, offices and apartments.
IFA Hotels & Resorts 8 (Pty) Ltd ("IFA Estates")
IFA SA`s estate agency has the sole mandate to sell the R1,1 billion Fairmont
Resort development situated in Zimbali.
IFA Hotels & Resorts (Namibia) (Pty) Ltd ("IFA Namibia")
In March 2007, IFA Namibia formed a joint venture 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. It will
also develop a fourth site in Windhoek into a five star hotel. IFA HR Kuwait
introduced five star international hotelier Kempinski Hotels to Namibia, to
operate these hotels going forward.
IFA Legends Investments ("IFA Legends")
IFA Legends and Crimson King have partnered in an outstanding new project that
brings together the world`s finest in an African Big Five game experience,
world class hospitality, leisure and sport - a unique 18-hole championship golf
course with 18 top professional golfers providing their signatures and finest
design input to one hole each. Situated within the 22 000 hectare Entabeni
Safari Conservancy in the malaria-free Waterberg region of the Limpopo
Province, the Legend Golf & Safari Resort epitomises the free spirit of the
bushveld lifestyle, offering a world first within a world class setting.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
IFA Hotels
Recognised revenue from land sales has decreased by 21% from R78,5 million in
the previous year to R62,3 million. 2007 gross margins from revenues in IFA
Hotels were also buffered by an upward revision of the total project gross
margins, which accounting convention dictates should be retrospectively
adjusted as a change in estimate in the current year. A combination of deferred
revenue adjustments and the gross margin adjustment in 2007 has resulted in
gross margins after tax in IFA Hotels having decreased by R16 million over the
corresponding period. Commission earned from land re-sales is up 291% from
R2,62 million in the previous year to R10,25 million as a result of the
increasing inventory of resale stock. A key focus for IFA Hotels remains the
development of the next phase of the Zimbali Coastal Resort, namely Zimbali
Lakes. Limited land stock remains in the current phase.
IFA Zimbali
Revenue has remained relatively unchanged at approximately R38,0 million from
the prior year. EBITDA has dropped due to the once-off charges arising from the
change of operator from Sun International Management Limited to Fairmont Hotels
& Resorts. The net asset value of IFA Zimbali has increased by R11,4 million as
a result of the revaluation of land and buildings at year end.
IFA Boschendal
The 2 400 hectare Boschendal estate is still in the planning phase and is
accordingly incurring costs in anticipation of future revenues. The group
recognised an after-tax loss of R5,3 million (2007: R6,1 million).
IFA Estates
IFA SA`s estate agency has a number of projects due to launch shortly which
will assist in bringing the company to profitability. The Fairmont Zimbali
project commenced sales in 2008. However, costs were incurred during the period
to gear the operation, which, in the absence of revenue, resulted in a loss. As
a result an after-tax loss of R6,5 million (2007: R3,7 million) was incurred.
IFA SA
IFA SA is the holding and administration company of the group. Net loss after
tax of R1,2 million (2007: profit of R7,1 million) was incurred for the year.
IFA Legends
IFA SA`s 20% share of profits in the Legend Golf & Safari Resort contributed
R10,8 million to IFA SA`s total after-tax profit for the period. Phase 1 of the
development is complete and the golf course is substantially complete and is
expected to open in April 2009. The directors are pleased with progress made to
date.
IFA Namibia
The joint venture ("JV") between IFA Namibia and Olthaver and List was
effective from 1 February 2008. The company has an operating lodge, Mokuti
Lodge, the operation of, which was recently taken over by 5-star German
Operator Kempinski Hotels. The JV also receives rental from a site in Windhoek,
which will ultimately be developed into a mixed use hotel and residential
building. Mokuti Lodge is currently undergoing a facelift to provide an
exceptional bush experience. The Strand Hotel in Swakopmund has been closed
pending demolition in anticipation of a mixed use residential and hotel
development. IFA Namibia is currently in the planning phase for these projects
and has, as such incurred a loss of R1,1 million.
PROSPECTS
IFA Hotels
In addition to the remaining sales in Zimbali Coastal Resort planning approvals
(ROD) have been obtained for the 300 hectare extension of the Zimbali Coastal
Resort - "Zimbali Lakes". This should generate sales beginning in the second
quarter of the 2009 financial year. Through the TIFAZ joint venture, IFA SA
stands to benefit from 50% of the sales revenue and attributable profits.
Whilst the additional TIFAZ land in Westbrook offers further opportunity for
expanding the current Zimbali resort and additional residential nodes as well
as introducing a significant business/commercial node close to the new airport,
planning thereof is not expected to commence until construction of the new King
Shaka International Airport is substantially complete.
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
Boschendal`s stake in the above revenues of 26,57% should accordingly impact
positively on group revenues.
IFA Estates
Approximately R175,3 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 2009 financial year as these sales become legally binding.
IFA Namibia
Revenues from running the three existing hotels that form part of the OLIFA
joint venture following their redevelopment and/or refurbishment should begin
impacting on results in the 2010 financial year. The OLIFA joint venture will
also be looking at the best mixed use of these sites to maximise values. The
development of the land in Windhoek is also likely to commence in 2009.
IFA Legends
Only phase one of four has currently been completed at the Legends Golf and
Safari resort. Approximately 90% of land stock remains in inventory and is yet
to be released.
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.
