Commentary                                                                      
The results for the 6 months ended 31 December 2009 suggest a bottoming out of  
the decline in import and export volumes. Software rental revenue increased by 6
percent year on year, an improvement on the flat earnings growth for the year   
ended 30 June 2009. Operating profit has increased by 9 percent and includes    
R0,4 million of expenses incurred in the running of the newly created Cargowise 
division, the revenues of which will come on stream during the next financial   
year. As previously announced, the Group has secured the regional distribution  
rights for Cargowise, an enterprise cargo management solution that will enable  
the Group to broaden its revenue base. Response to the product has been         
enthusiastic and the first implementation will commence in July 2010.           
The decline in net financial income from R 1,4 million to R0,8 million is a     
result of a drop in interest rates as well as lower cash holdings precipitated  
by the payment of a dividend of R10,3 million.                                  
A subsidiary company, Compu-Clearing (Pty) Ltd is a minority investor in Ndlela 
Travel, a fledgling, black empowered travel agency. Ndlela is treated as an     
associate company in these reviewed condensed interim financial statements and  
accounted for on the equity method.                                             
Cash generation continues to be strong and bank balances remain at satisfactory 
levels after the dividend payment.                                              
Prospects                                                                       
The company traditionally performs more strongly in the second half and is      
hopeful of a moderate increase in cargo volumes. As mentioned above, the first  
Cargowise revenues will be realised in the next financial year. Agreements in   
principle for additional implementations should result in a positive            
contribution from the division in the forthcoming year.                         
Basis of preparation                                                            
The condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited, the recognition and measurement   
requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards, the presentation   
and disclosure requirements of IAS 34 and the Companies Act of South Africa. The
accounting policies applied are consistent with those reflected in the financial
statements for the year ended 30 June 2009, except for the adoption of the      
amendments to                                                                   
- IAS 1 (Revised) - Presentation of financial statements                        
- IAS 27 (Revised) - Consolidated and separate financial statements             
- IFRS2 (Amendment) - Share-based payment                                       
- IFRS3 (Revised) - Business Combinations                                       
- IFRS 8 - Operating segments                                                   
- IFRIC 16 - Hedges of a net investment in a foreign operation                  
The adoption of these revised standards and interpretations have not had a      
material impact on the reported results. Consequently, no adjustments relating  
to these amendments have been made to previously reported figures.              
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with the historic cost convention except for land and buildings which are stated
at fair value. The condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in 
Rand, which is Compu-Clearing`s functional and presentation currency.           
This interim report should be read in conjunction with the annual financial     
statements for the year ended 30 June 2009.                                     
Related party transactions                                                      
The Group has entered into various transactions with related parties on an arm`s
length basis and at market rates.                                               
Distributions to shareholders                                                   
Compu-Clearing has a policy of paying a dividend at year end. As a result, the  
company has not declared an interim dividend.
