UNAUDITED INTERIM RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 28 February 2009
Directors` review
The primary aim of the group is to generate superior risk-adjusted long-term
returns for its shareholders. Management considers that the primary yardstick
for measurement of this objective should be the net asset value per share.
The net asset value reported for the period ended 28 February 2009 is 73 cents
per share which is a decline of 17% since the last financial year-end. The
past year has clearly not been a successful one when measured by this
yardstick.
Trading losses of R7.8 million were incurred during the period of which about
50% were realised and the balance was the result of mark-to-market adjustments
and operating losses.
The loan impairment of R17.3 million was the result of the mark-to-market of
the company`s indirect investment in Mazor Group Ltd (`Mazor`) which was based
on the Mazor share price of 120 cents per share at the reporting date. Since
the reporting date the Mazor price has increased to 190 cents which would
represent a reversal of the impairment of R6.2 million.
The net asset value does reflect a number of subjective assumptions as to the
realisable value of our unlisted investments but management believes that it
is a reasonably prudent estimate of the true value of the business.
Commentary on individual investments
Club Mykonos Langebaan Ltd (`CML`)
The group owns just over 34% of CML which has been consolidated as a
subsidiary since the last financial year-end. In the comparable period CML was
not consolidated but was treated as an investment.
CML`s operations are currently not profitable and it is expected that CML will
incur a loss for its financial year ending June 2009. Head office costs have
been reduced by roughly 50% in the current period and the operational losses
(mainly related to restaurants and related businesses) have been contained at
manageable levels. CML`s major asset is significant holdings of residential
stands and zoned coastal land which are difficult to value in the current
market. The land is situated in prime areas but the market for these
properties is currently poor.
CML owns approximately 30% of the Mykonos Casino which has continued to trade
profitably. The casino is controlled and managed by Gold Reef Resorts Ltd and
shareholders are referred to the results of Gold Reef Resorts Ltd for further
information on this investment.
Faircare Trust (Formerly the RV Holdings Trust)
The Faircare Trust, of which approximately 35% is effectively attributable to
Trematon, is responsible for the management and operation of upmarket
retirement villages based mainly in the Western Cape. The villages are all
well established and highly regarded and operate under a variety of ownership
structures which are tailored to the needs of their customers. All of the
villages comprise residential units, assisted living suites, frail care and
catering facilities. The villages include Cle du Cap (situated in Tokai),
Noordhoek Manor, Onrus Manor, Heritage Manor and Bridgewater Manor (both
situated in Somerset West).
This business is very well managed and has performed in line with expectations
thus far. We expect that it will generate very good long-term returns for the
group.
Grand Parade Investments Ltd (`GPI`)
Trematon has a minority interest in GPI which is accounted for as an
investment. Shareholders are referred to the reviewed interim results of GPI
which were published on SENS on 9 March 2009.The company is still very
profitable although industry statistics indicate gaming revenues and earnings
are currently under pressure in the Western Cape.
Mazor Group Ltd (`Mazor`)
Trematon owns 7.2% of Mazor indirectly via a 49% holding in Cloudberry
Investments 18 (Pty) Ltd. Cloudberry is controlled by a BEE entity and is
partially funded via a loan from Trematon.
The loan has been impaired in the accounts to the extent that the market value
of the investment has declined below the value of the outstanding loans.
Mazor produced excellent operating results in the most recent reporting
period. The company is in a very sound financial position and is highly
profitable although the share price has declined since listing in sympathy
with market circumstances.
Shareholders are referred to the final results of Mazor which were published
on SENS on 20 May 2009.
Property Investments
Ingenuity Property Investments Ltd (formerly SA REIT Ltd)
Shareholders are referred to the SENS announcement reporting Ingenuity`s
financial results for the six-month period to 28 February 2009 which were
published on 15 May 2009.
Trematon owns 21.1% of Ingenuity which has a high quality portfolio of
investment and development properties situated mainly in and around Cape Town.
The underlying assets are sound and well managed and Ingenuity`s executive
team is firmly focused on adding value for their shareholders.
Stalagmite (Pty) Ltd
Stalagmite is a development comprising prime industrial land in Strand at the
Broadway Industrial Park adjacent to the proposed route of the new N2 highway.
Stalagmite is 50% held and is accounted for as a joint venture.
The partners in the joint venture are Gateway Property Developers (Pty) Ltd
who have managed the project very successfully.
Stalagmite has no remaining borrowings and has retained prime land holdings
for realisation over the next twelve to eighteen months.
Boulevard Park
Trematon owns an effective 37.5% interest in Boulevard Park which is a premier
grade development located adjacent to the N2 highway on the Cape Town CBD
periphery. The development comprises seven office towers comprising
38 000 square metres of office space and 1 800 parking bays. Five of the seven
buildings have been sold and letting interest has been strong.
Wembley Square II
Trematon owns an effective 40% interest in Wembley Square II which is located
opposite to Wembley Square and is a joint venture with Faircape which was the
original developer of Wembley Square. The site is in a highly desirable
development node and plans are under way to maximise the value of the
investment.
Prospects
The company`s portfolio of investments has not changed materially since the
previous financial year-end. The primary focus of management is on ensuring
that the value of our current investments is maximised. Potential new
investments have been identified. It is not possible to predict the future net
asset value with great certainty but if economic conditions do not deteriorate
it is possible that the published net asset value will represent a low point
in the current cycle.

NOTES
1 Presentation of annual financial statements
Trematon Capital Investments Limited (the `company`) is a company domiciled in
South Africa. The consolidated financial statements of the company for the
period ending 28 February 2009 comprise the company and its subsidiaries
(together referred to as the `group`) and the group`s interest in jointly
controlled entities.
The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards (`IFRS`), IAS 34 - Interim
Reporting,the Listings Requirements of the JSE Ltd and the South African
Companies Act.The interim financial statements have been prepared on the going
concern basis using a combination of the historical cost and fair value basis
of accounting.
All significant accounting policies have been consistently applied to all
periods presented and throughout the group.
The consolidated interim financial statements are stated in Rands, which is
the company`s functional and presentation currency.
The preparation of interim financial statements in conformity with IFRS
requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect
the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
income and expenses.
The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience
and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under
circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making judgements about
carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from
other sources.
Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis.
Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the
estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or the period of
the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and
future periods. The interim financial statements have not been reviewed or
audited by
