The Barnard Jacobs Mellet Group is pleased to report a profit of R10,795 million
for the half year. We believe that this demonstrates resilience through a down  
cycle. Notwithstanding a recovery from their lows, financial markets remain     
fragile in the wake of the global crisis.                                       
This impacted negatively on our revenue and resulted in operating revenue       
declining by 7% and total revenue, including interest received, declining by 10%
compared to the comparative reporting period.                                   
In response, costs were cut by 8% compared to the comparative period. As a      
consequence, headline earnings per share increased by 15% to 12,5cps while basic
earnings per share, increased by 48% to 15,4cps.                                
Gross equity brokerage declined by 13% in a market where JSE values traded fell 
by 18%. This represents the main reason for the decline in Group revenue. The   
other areas of the business managed to hold their own in light of the pressures 
exerted on revenue; these include Barnard Jacobs Mellet Corporate Finance and   
Barnard Jacobs Mellet Private Client Services (BJMPCS) which continued to show  
real positive growth in the face of difficult markets. BJMPCS extended its      
product offering with the acquisition of the entire share capital of Quadro     
Executive Estate Planning (Pty) Ltd on 1 April 2009, a Trust and Fiduciary      
Services business now operating as Barnard Jacobs Mellet Wealth. This           
acquisition accounts for the increase in the intangible assets as disclosed in  
the consolidated statement of financial position. The value of assets under     
administration currently amounts to R31,9 billion compared to R25,2 billion at  
the financial year end. All of the Group`s operating segments were profitable   
during the period under review.                                                 
The adoption of revised accounting standards have resulted in certain items,    
previously accounted for directly in equity, being reflected on the face of the 
Statement of Comprehensive Income. The most important item is the exchange      
differences in translating foreign operations at the closing exchange rate at   
the reporting date and does not represent any cash flow implications.           
Prospects                                                                       
We expect mixed results for the Group into the second half. While optimistic    
that global market conditions will continue to improve we expect local markets  
to be constrained by domestic economic conditions. We will continue to explore
