6 Basis of preparation of results                                               
The unaudited results of the group for the six months ended 31 December 2009    
have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies of the group,     
which comply with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), the       
presentation and disclosure requirements of IAS 34 (Interim Financial           
Reporting) and the Companies Act of South Africa, 1973 (as amended), and are    
consistent with those of the prior year, except for IAS 1 (Presentation of      
Financial Statements), which was implemented during the period. The             
restatements of the 31 December 2008 period relate to the Feltex Automotive     
Leathers division, which has now been accounted for as a discontinued           
operation.

The results for the six months ended 31 December 2009 have not been audited or  
reviewed by the company`s auditors.                                             
PERFORMANCE                                                                     
Revenue and earnings                                                            
The board of directors reports on the results for the six months ended          
31 December 2009. The group underwent major restructuring in the previous       
financial year and the benefits are evident in the results for the current      
period. This restructuring, together with an intense focus on cost reduction and
cash generation, have resulted in an improvement in profitability. Headline     
earnings per share increased from 3 cents per share to 11 cents per share.      
Revenue from continuing operations for the six months ended December 2009       
decreased marginally compared to the prior period due to a decline in sales of  
automotive and consumer products.                                               
Balance sheet and cash flow                                                     
The debt/equity ratio has improved further to 34,3% as a result of strong       
operating cash flows and excellent working capital management, and we continue  
to focus on this area. Net asset value per share remains above R3,00 despite    
restructuring in the previous year.                                             
OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW                                                            
Industrial segment                                                              
Feltex Automotive                                                               
Vehicle production for the period from July to December 2009 reduced by         
approximately 30% compared to the previous period. The restructuring of the     
division completed in the 2009 financial year has aligned its cost base to the  
revised vehicle build volumes.                                                  
Industrial footwear                                                             
In United Fram, import competition will be countered by the release of the      
division`s new range of products. Wayne Plastics has seen an increase in the    
demand for gumboots across all sectors. Despite recent increases of             
international hide prices due to the revival of the automotive leather industry,
Mossop is still delivering pleasing results.                                    
Hosaf                                                                           
The expanded Hosaf plant is producing according to plan amid strong demand for  
PET, which is expected to continue with the World Cup soccer tournament. The    
fibres division has been proactively downsized in line with reducing volumes.   
Consumer segment                                                                
Bull Brand Foods                                                                
The cannery experienced slow demand during the period, but volumes started to   
pick up towards the end of 2009. The new Bull Brand management team has         
commenced various initiatives, including improved production flow and the       
targeting of new markets such as exports and Halaal.                            
Brenner Mills                                                                   
Brenner continued to deliver a good performance despite the reduction in the    
maize price over the period, by focusing on efficiencies at the milling         
operations.                                                                     
Jordan                                                                          
Sales volumes remain under pressure, although there has been a slight           
improvement in the retail environment and in margins since 2009. Improved       
information systems and warehousing/distribution integration will assist        
Jordan to pursue more profitable business.                                      
Glodina                                                                         
Due largely to the hospitality sector, Glodina has nearly maintained sales      
into the 2010 financial year, and has generated reasonable margins during the   
period.                                                                         
CORPORATE ACTIVITY                                                              
During the period, the group settled the outstanding consideration in respect   
of the Brenner Mills acquisition.                                               
Corporate governance                                                            
The directors subscribe to the principles incorporated in the Code of Corporate 
Practices and Conduct as set out in the King Report on Corporate Governance     
(King II) and comply therewith.                                                 
Directors and officers                                                          
Karl Schmidt and Ulrich Schackermann were appointed as independent,             
non-executive directors on 1 March 2010.                                        
Outlook                                                                         
A gradual improvement in vehicle build coupled with the increased volumes in    
Hosaf should result in overall revenue growth. The consumer operations should   
improve in line with consumer sentiment. Responsible cost-cutting across the    
group has positioned us to benefit once trading conditions improve.             
Appreciation                                                                    
We appreciate the support of our shareholders, employees, bankers, suppliers
