COMMENTARY
Introduction
The directors of Gooderson is pleased to present the unaudited interim financial
results for the six months ended
31 August 2009.
Performance review
The unaudited interim results of Gooderson Leisure Corporation Limited for the
six months ended 31 August 2009, reflected group revenue marginally increasing
from R57.397 million to R57.845 million while group profits attributable to
ordinary shareholders decreased by 21% from R6.542 million to R5.139 million.
The net asset value (NAV) and net tangible asset value (NTAV) have both
increased by 30% from 85.74 to 111.60 cents per share and 84.91 to 110.77 cents
per share respectively.
The trading period under review was affected by the general meltdown of the
global economy, which also impacted on the South African economy. This resulted
in a significant decline in both local and international tourism and a downturn
in conference bookings. The planned refurbishment of the group`s hotel rooms
also resulted in extra expenditure.
The revenues of the Durban Hotels were down compared to the same period last
year, further emphasizing the tight economic trading conditions as well as
increased interest costs and depreciation charges emanating from upgrading and
refurbishing all Hotels and Lodges. The timeshare division is still performing
well despite the economic downturn, but there is a major shift from clients to
buy on credit through our in house finance company "Goodfin". Higher write offs
in this division still remain within the industry norm.
The acquisition of the Sanrock Resort and Conference Centre (previously Avuxeni)
in July 2009, impacted on the group`s profit as we continue to extensively
upgrade and refurbish this property also to Gooderson`s standards.
Black Economic Empowerment
We are committed to the transformation of the group through broad based
empowerment, but due to the current economic environment, no negotiations are in
progress with regards to ownership.
We are pleased to report that the group has achieved a "BB" rating (level six
contributor) for the 2008 financial year which is a good improvement from the
previous year. The "BB" status will ensure business compliance with the
requirements of various government departments and other corporate companies.
Developments and Refurbishment
The Tropicana and Beach Hotels in Durban`s beachfront are being upgraded and
refurbished in preparation for the FIFA World Cup in 2010, as well as the
Sanrock Resort and Conference Centre situated at Modimolle, Limpopo.
Eight timeshare units at the Fairways Resort in the Southern Drakensberg and
five timeshare units at Natal Spa in Paulpietersburg are currently under
construction and would be released for occupation in December 2009.
Post Balance Sheet Events
Gooderson purchased the Fabz Estate Hotel and Restaurant in Lonehill,
Johannesburg, during November 2009. This acquisition forms part of the expansion
of Gooderson`s portfolio and product base beyond KwaZulu Natal. The property
currently features a 28-bedroom hotel with a restaurant and four conference
facilities with the capacity to host up to 120 delegates and is situated on 1.71
hectares
We envisage that both of the recent acquisitions will not contribute to profits
of the company until late 2010.
Prospects
Notwithstanding the current economic downturn, the directors remain positive
that the business can withstand the negative economic downturn and continue to
position the group for growth in the future. Further with the acquisition of
two new Hotels, and the development of additional timeshare units in the
resorts, Gooderson will be well positioned to accelerate growth once the economy
begins to show positive signs.
Basis of Preparation
The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in compliance with
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and the presentation as well
as the disclosure requirements of IAS34 - Interim Financial Reporting in
compliance with the Listing Requirements of the JSE Limited as well as the
Companies Act.
Corporate Governance
The Group subscribes to the principles of, and implements where possible, the
recommendations of the King Code on Corporate Governance.
Dividend
No dividend is paid as an ordinary dividend number 3 of 3.85 cents per share was
paid to shareholders on 29 June 2009. The group has a policy to declare
dividends at the end of the financial year.
Appreciation
We thank our loyal staff, the majority of whom have remained with the group for
more than 10 years, for their commitment and hard work. We also thank our
business partners, suppliers, advisers and most importantly our shareholders for
their support and faith in the group.
By order of the Board.
