ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The unaudited interim results for the six months ended 28 February 2010 have
been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards,
including IAS 34 (Interim Financial Reporting) as well as the JSE Listings
Requirements and the relevant sections of the Companies Act of South Africa, as
amended.
The accounting policies used are consistent in all respects with the accounting
policies applied in the financial statements for the year ended 31 August 2009.
These results have not been audited or reviewed by New Corpcapital`s auditors,
PKF (Jhb) Inc.
COMMENTARY TO SHAREHOLDERS
New Corpcapital was listed on the JSE Limited on 27 June 2005 following the
liquidation of Corpcapital Limited and the termination of its listing. New
Corpcapital was previously an unlisted wholly-owned subsidiary of Corpcapital
Limited. Since Corpcapital Limited`s liquidation, New Corpcapital has owned and
controlled its assets and assumed its liabilities. New Corpcapital Limited
continued the strategy, initiated by Corpcapital Limited, of realising group
assets and returning capital to shareholders. The group`s operations are
regarded as discontinuing and the accounting policies adopted for the financial
year are consistent with the previous year.
Revenue for the period arises from interest earned on the group`s cash holdings.
The debtors` book has recently been closed with the last debtor settling an
outstanding balance in March 2010. Ongoing tax queries from the South African
Revenue Service have not been resolved. Tax refunds owing to the group have been
delayed pending resolution of the queries. Group overhead costs have been
reduced to a minimum in line with the limited scope of activities.
Application has been made to the Financial Services Board ("FSB") for the
withdrawal of Corpcapital Life Insurance Limited`s life licence. The
cancellation of the life licence is taking longer than anticipated and is
delaying the release of capital to the group and a proposed payment of a further
interim distribution to shareholders. The company is engaging with the FSB, at
the highest level, on the cancellation of the life licence. Further
announcements will be made to shareholders as soon as information becomes
available.
Since the recent closure of the debtors` book and resolution of a related
dispute, the board estimates that, subject to satisfactory resolution of the tax
queries, future cash distributions that shareholders can expect will be at about
the group`s net asset value per share, currently 11,9 cents.
