Review
The revenue increase of 14% is pleasing and was achieved despite the severe
downturn in volumes that were experienced in the second half of the year.
The operating profit, excluding the effect of the adjustment to the value of
assets in the property segment, has increased by 48% . This margin increase
was achieved mainly in the industrial, supply chain and aviation segments of
the business.
The agricultural sector of the business has again been affected by adverse
weather conditions and industrial action which has collectively reduced
profitability.
The sale of the letting enterprise and its property within Cargo Carriers
Workshop Property (Pty) Ltd has been concluded and its effects are shown in
the high cash holding position.
The increased interest rates and additional borrowings have resulted in an
increase in the overall finance costs. The increase in borrowings has been
utilized to fund the acquisition of vehicles and aircrafts in the business.
Interest income has also increased due to higher interest rates and the
investment of the proceeds received on the disposal of the letting
enterprise and the property.
Prospects
The business conditions in the coming year are expected to be extremely
challenging with volumes in the industrial sector showing a decrease of
between 15 and 40%. This is balanced by the positive outlook in the
agricultural sector. The company`s strategic positioning and strong balance
sheet will ensure that the company will weather the current business
conditions and be in a position to take advantage of growth opportunities
that arise.
DIVIDEND DECLARATION
A final dividend (no. 36) of 9.0 (2008: 9.0) cents per share has been
declared to shareholders recorded in the books of the company at the close
of business on Friday, 19 June 2009. The last date to trade cum dividend
will be Thursday, 11 June 2009 and the shares will trade ex dividend from
the commencement of business on Friday, 12 June 2009. The dividend will be
paid on Monday, 22 June 2009. Share certificates may not be dematerialized
/ rematerialized between Friday, 12 June 2009 and Friday, 19 June 2009, both
days inclusive.
Accounting Policies
The financial results to year end February 2009 have been prepared in
accordance with IAS 34, the requirements of the South African Companies Act,
Act 61 of 1973, and the Listing Requirements of the JSE Limited.
The accounting policies applied in the current year are consistent with
prior years.
Independent Auditor`s Report
These results have been audited by Ernst & Young Inc and their opinion is
available on request from the company secretary at Cargo Carriers Limited`s
registered office. The Group`s annual report will be available by the end of
May 2009.
Restatement of prior year figures
The comparative figures for other revenue and operating and administration
costs have been changed. This is due to the reclassification of aircraft
revenue from operating and administration costs to revenue. These changes
have also effected the classification of certain items in the value added
statement, segment report as well as the income statement and notes.
