FOURTH QUARTER OPERATIONAL UPDATE - FY 2010                                     
Cashbuild is currently in the process of finalising its results for the year    
ended 30 June 2010. In line with past practice and disclosure, Cashbuild        
herewith provides its quarterly trading update.                                 
Revenue for the company was up by 2% on the fourth quarter of the prior         
financial year. Stores opened since 1 July 2008 (new stores - 21 stores)        
contributed 4% of the increase, whilst existing stores (168 stores) decreased by
2%. Revenue for the financial year increased by 6%. (New stores 4% & existing   
stores 2%)                                                                      
Transactions through the tills during the 4th quarter increased by 2% with new  
stores adding 4% and existing stores decreasing by 2%. For the financial year   
transactions increased by 9% with new stores adding 6%, whilst existing stores  
added 3%.                                                                       
Units sold during the fourth quarter increased by 1%. Existing stores decreased 
by 3%. For the financial year units sold increased by 1% with existing stores   
decreasing by 3%.                                                               
Three new stores were opened during this quarter and one store closed (trading  
in close proximity to another existing store), bringing the number of stores    
trading at the end of the financial year to 189. One store was relocated during 
this quarter and one store was refurbished.                                     
In addition to the factual part of the operational update given above, the      
following paragraphs will only deal with indicative information.                
Prospects                                                                       
Management are disappointed with the growth in revenue experienced during this  
4th trading quarter, in the light of good sales volumes achieved in South Africa
during the FIFA Soccer World Cup.                                               
As mentioned in the third quarter update, the improvement seen in gross profit  
percentage margins, has continued in the 4th quarter.
