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.
Review report
The Group`s auditors KPMG Inc, have reviewed the financial information for the
six months ended 31 December 2009. Their unmodified review report is available
