COMMENTARY
Business Environment
The past six months have been significant in the history of JD Group. The
business model, first envisaged early in 2006, is now a reality. The old
format of a retail business incorporating a financing arm is history. Today,
JD Group consists of five distinct business divisions, one being a stand-
alone financial services business. The planning, which was 18 months in the
making, is now fully implemented. We now have focus in every business
division driven by specialists with very clear line of sight. All that
remains is the fine-tuning of these businesses in order to achieve the stated
benchmarks. The execution of this business plan bodes well for the future of
this organisation.
Each business division is correctly staffed. The decentralised model for
collections ceased to exist as at 15 January 2009. Our state-of-the-art
contact centre is up and running. The software necessary for risk rating
every credit transaction is in the process of being implemented. Our ability
to compete with the best-of-breed will be in place by September 2009.
Service levels are improving on a daily basis.
The results for the six months under review reflect the severity of this
business cycle. The Group grew its revenue by a modest 2% to R6,8 billion,
principally due to the inclusion of Blake and Maravedi for the first time as
well as the exceptional performance from Incredible Connection and Abra.
Gross margin was slightly up on the previous year at 31,0%. The increase in
expenses of 8% on 2008 is almost entirely due to the inclusion of Blake and
Maravedi as well as store growth at Abra and Incredible Connection. As
referred to in note 12, the Group incurred R84 million of restructuring costs
primarily driven by the centralisation of debtors collections. If these
costs are excluded, the Group would have shown a like-for-like reduction in
expenses on the prior year.
As reported on SENS on 31 March 2009, the Group settled its outstanding
contingent liabilities with SARS as disclosed in the 2008 Annual Report for
an amount of R325 million. These contingent liabilities, relating to
outstanding tax structures, have over the past number of years resulted in a
considerable amount of speculation and uncertainty. This contingency would
have increased over time to R970 million including two structures that were
not assessed, but were included in the settlement. Against this background,
and in order to remove the uncertainty and the Group`s exposure to these
contingent liabilities, it was resolved to settle the matter with SARS.
The Group generated an operating profit before debtors costs of R1 031
million. While 4% down on 2008, if the restructuring costs of R84 million are
excluded, operating profit grew by 4%.
Total debtors costs remain a concern with a 13% increase over 2008. After
showing such a positive start to the six months, it is very disappointing to
report such an increase in total debtors costs. We are confident that the
efficiencies gained from centralising collections will bear fruit in the near
future. The indebtedness of the consumer remains a concern and this clearly
impacts on bad debts and Traditional Retail`s ability to generate more sales.
In summary, headline earnings showed a modest increase of 2% over the
previous period if you eliminate the once-off tax settlement and
restructuring costs.
Financial Review
Traditional Retail
Despite the fact that revenue was down 3,9% on the previous period the rate
of decline was much lower than previous years. Gross margin was up on last
year at 36,6% and once again expenses were exceptionally well managed
decreasing by 0,7% over 2008. The net result was that we were able to
maintain the operating margin at 8,6% in line with 2008 and to generate R246
million in operating profit. Once again, the entry level chains of Price `n
Pride and Barnetts performed better than our other brands.
Cash Retail
The cash division comprising Incredible Connection and Hi-Fi Corporation
delivered revenue of R2,1 billion reflecting a 1,5% increase over 2008.
Operating profit was flat on 2008 at R125 million but operating margin was
still at an acceptable 5,9%.
Incredible Connection continues to perform exceptionally well, growing its
market share and delivering a unique and value added customer experience. It
will open four new stores in the 2009 financial year which bodes well for the
brand in the years ahead. Hi-Fi Corporation continues to reposition its
customer offering, with positive steps having been taken in areas of
merchandise ranging, the store look and feel and after sales service. A
total of four stores will be opening in 2009 with 11 stores trading in the
new format. Despite sales being down 9,5% on 2008, gross margin was 21,6%
and expenses were well controlled reducing by 1,5%.
Financial Services
In line with the continued slowdown in consumer demand, Financial Services
was impacted by lower new business inflows. Revenue declined by 3,9% to R1,5
billion with operating profit down 48,3% to R123 million. Two factors
impacted negatively on operating profit, the first being the restructuring
costs and the second being the 12,9% increase in debtors costs to R561
million from R497 million in 2008. With the centralisation of debtors
collections now complete, the additional expenses are no longer being
incurred and we anticipate a better trading performance from Financial
Services in the second six months.
International
Once again the Group`s Polish operation Abra performed exceptionally well
with revenue up 37,6% to R476 million. Operating profit remained strong at
R35 million with the operating margin climbing to 7,4%. The outlook for Abra
remains positive as it continues to open new stores and concentrates its
market position as the only national brand focusing on the middle mass
market.
New Business Development
As we reported at the time of the release of our 2008 final results, the
Group increased its share in Blake from 27,5% to 55% and in Maravedi from
45% to 90,5% at the reporting date. Both Blake and Maravedi have been
consolidated into the Group`s results from 1 December 2008. Subsequent to
the reporting date the Group increased its share in Blake to 70%. While the
financial performance of Blake and Maravedi was not material in the six
months, both acquisitions are critical to the Group`s long term strategy of
being a relevant and significant financial services provider to the middle
mass market.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow
Despite cash generated by trading decreasing from R682 million to R582
million in the six months, the Group continues to generate strong cash flows
with 124% of its trading profit converted into cash. R444 million was
utilised in the growth of the debtors book and an increase in inventory.
During the period, R193 million was used to increase our stake in Blake from
27,5% to 55% and in Maravedi from 45% to 90,5%. The balance sheet reflects
net debt of R637 million at a gearing ratio of 13,5% which is conservative
and an enviable position to be in, given the current economic situation.
Board of Directors and Remuneration Committee
Vusi Khanyile has accepted the role of Lead Independent Non-executive
Director and Martin Shaw has assumed the role of Chairman of the Remuneration
Committee.
Outlook
The restructured Group could not be in a better position to address the short
term vagaries of this business cycle. Arresting the bad debt move out
remains our biggest challenge. The two months subsequent to the period under
review have shown an improvement in top line sales at Traditional Retail.
Despite the uncertainty around bad debts, we expect an improvement in like-on-
like earnings for the full year if the once-off tax settlement and
restructuring costs are excluded.
For and on behalf of the Board.

Dividend
As communicated in our SENS announcement dated 31 March 2009, the board of
directors has decided not to declare an interim dividend for the six months
ended 28 February 2009. This was done to facilitate the payment of the tax
settlement. The situation will be reviewed again at the time of the
finalisation of our results for the full year to 31 August 2009.

# Elimination of interdivisional origination fees and commissions
Comparative figures in the segmental analysis have been restated to take
into account additional origination fees paid by Financial Services to
Traditional Retail and Cash Retail, amendments to the expense allocations

corporate expenses to Traditional Retail, Financial Services and Cash Retail.
These restatements relate to interdivisional allocations and have no effect
on the overall Group results.
