ADAPT IT HOLDINGS LIMITED                                                       
(Formerly InfoWave Holdings Limited)                                            
(Registration number 1998/017276/06)                                            
Share code: ADI ISIN: ZAE000113163                                              
("Adapt IT" or "the group")                                                     
2009 UNAUDITED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED GROUP RESULTS                               
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 31 AUGUST 2009                                         
Interim report to stakeholders for the six months ended 31 August 2009          
Results of operations                                                           
Revenue grew 60% to R60,6 million (R37,8 million). Net profit attributable to   
ordinary shareholders is R4,5 million compared to R4,2 million in the previous  
period. The interim earnings per share have increased in line with profits to   
4,73 cents from 4,36 cents, representing an 8% increase Adapt IT (Pty) Limited  
contributed a profit before tax of R4,8 million (2008: R4,8 million). ITS       
Holdings (Pty) Limited, consolidated for two months, contributed a profit before
tax of R0,7 million. ApplyIT (Pty) Limited contributed a profit before tax of   
R0,1 million (2008: R2,2 million).                                              
The group incurred non-recurring transaction costs, relating to the acquisition 
of ITS Holdings (Pty) Limited, being fully expensed during the period. The tough
market conditions prevailing mainly in manufacturing and mining sectors have    
reduced operating profit of the Adapt IT and ApplyIT operating segments.        
Dividend                                                                        
Ordinary dividend number 7 of 1,86 cents per share was paid to shareholders on 3
July 2009. The group has a policy to declare dividends at the end of the        
financial year and not at the interim reporting date.                           
Change of year end                                                              
Pursuant to the ITS transaction, the group`s year end will change to 30 June.   
The current financial reporting period will thus be extended to 16 months.      
Strategy                                                                        
The group`s strategic objectives remain to increase operational efficiency,     
defend current markets, pursue organic growth, and pursue acquisitive growth    
into new markets, whilst being cognisant of ensuring sustainable growth in light
of current market conditions.                                                   
The board and group structure                                                   
On 1 September 2009 the three wholly-owned operating subsidiaries, InfoWave     
(Pty) Limited, Adapt-IT (Pty) Limited and Isizinda Consulting (Pty) Limited were
consolidated into one main operating subsidiary Adapt IT (Pty) Limited.         
Bruno Lionnet and Cindy von Pannier resigned from the Adapt IT Holdings Limited 
board, in aid of formally constituting the main operating subsidiary`s board, in
line with the best practice corporate governance recommendations adopted by the 
board. Subsequent to the interim period, Ralph Collis resigned as Chairman of   
the company in order to pursue private interests. The board expresses its thanks
to them for their contribution to the holding company board over the years and  
wishes them well in their new roles. Dr Bernard Ravno, an independent non-      
executive member of the board, has been appointed by the board to act as the    
Chairman with effect from 1 October 2009 until a permanent successor is         
appointed.                                                                      
BEE                                                                             
The Adapt IT Group has been rated by Empowerdex as a Level 3 contributor to     
broad-based BEE and a Value Adding Enterprise, which gives our customers 137,5% 
recognition of their procurement spend for their BEE scorecard purposes. Adapt  
IT remains committed to genuine and sustainable broad-based transformation.     
Prospects                                                                       
Not withstanding the current economic situation, we are positive about the      
prospects of the group.                                                         
Appreciation                                                                    
We express our thanks to our longstanding and new customers for their continued 
support. We also recognise all employees of the group for their dedication and  
hard work in serving our customers.

Corporate information and basis of preparation                                  
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the group for the six
months ended 31 August 2009 were prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim     
Financial Reporting, the Companies Act, 1973, (Act 61 of 1973) as amended and   
the Listing Requirements of the JSE Limited.                                    
The interim condensed financial statements do not include all the information   
and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read  
in conjunction with the group`s annual financial statements as at 28 February   
2009.                                                                           
The interim results have not been audited or reviewed by the group`s auditors.  
The Adapt IT group is incorporated and domiciled in South Africa.               
Change in accounting policy                                                     
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim condensed     
financial statements are in accordance with International Financial Reporting   
Standards (IFRS) and are consistent with those followed in the preparation of   
the annual financial statements for the year ended 28 February 2009, except for 
the adoption of the following new standards that have an effect on disclosure:  
IFRS 8 Operating Segments                                                       
This standard requires disclosure of information about the group`s operating    
segments.                                                                       
Adoption of this Standard does not have any effect on the financial position or 
performance of the group. Disclosure on the newly identified operating segments 
are shown in the relevant note, including comparative information.              
IAS 1 Revised Presentation of Financial Statements                              
The revised Standard separates owner and non-owner changes in equity. The       
statement of changes in equity includes only details of transactions with       
owners, with non-owner changes in equity presented as a single line.            
In addition, the Standard introduces the statement of comprehensive income: it  
presents all items of recognised income and expense, either in one single       
statement, or in two linked statements.                                         
As a result of the above changes, certain figures have been reclassified where  
appropriate.                                                                    
Subsequent events                                                               
The directors are not aware of any material matter or circumstance arising since
the end of the financial period up to the date of this report.
