December 2008                                                                   
Commentary                                                                      
The 6 months ended 31 December 2008 has been a challenging period for the       
Company as import and export volumes declined. Core revenue remained at a       
similar level to the corresponding period, while expenses increased by 5%.      
Secondary Tax on Companies (`STC`) of R1 million relating to dividends paid     
during the period, resulted in a 3,4 cents drop in headline earnings per share  
and earnings per share to 8,4 cents. Distributions to shareholders in the       
corresponding period were made by way of a reduction in share capital, which was
not subject to STC.  Excluding the effect of the STC in the current period,     
headline earning per share and earnings per share would have decreased by 8,0%  
and 7.7% respectively. The company continues to be a strong generator of cash.  
Prospects                                                                       
Prospects for the coming year appear good with a stable client base, with the   
rollout of some  new products expected to take place during the second half of  
this financial year. Volumes are not expected to increase. Management remains   
committed to the further development of new products.                           
Basis of preparation                                                            
The condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
the listings requirements of the JSE Limited, the recognition and measurement   
requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards, the presentation   
and disclosure requirements of IAS 34 and the Companies Act of South Africa. The
accounting policies applied are consistent with those reflected in the financial
statements for the year ended 30 June 2008.                                     
Related party transactions                                                      
The Group has entered into various transactions with related parties on an arm`s

Distributions to shareholders                                                   
Compu-Clearing has a policy of paying a single dividend at year end. As a       
result, the company has not declared an interim dividend.
