INTRODUCTION                                                                    
Against the backdrop of the post recessionary environment in South Africa, the  
directors are pleased to present the interim financial results of the Finbond   
Group for the six months ended 31 August 2010. During the six months under      
review Finbond made good progress despite continued extremely challenging market
conditions. This process resulted in a number of achievements and significant   
developments for Finbond:                                                       
*    Microfinance portfolio yield - R87,4 million (up 23.7%)                    
*    Headline loss per share - 1.5 cents (up 83.1%)                             
*    Net cash from operating activities - R2,5 million (up 100%)                
*    Operating expenses reduced from R 93,7 million (Aug 2009) to R71,4 million 
    (Aug 2010) a saving of R 22,2 million (23.8%)                               
*    Attracted R77 million of funding facilities in the current  challenging    
fund raising environment.                                                   
*    Centralised control and standardised operations, including improved credit 
    vetting and collections practices, through 186 branches in Southern Africa. 
The Group continues to manage for the long term 5-10-15 years and to invest in  
infrastructure, people, training, information technology and systems, as well as
in enhanced collection strategies and systems, to build a sustainable,          
professional business. We believe that doing the right things now, will allow us
to reap the rewards in the medium and long term.                                
MARKET CONDITIONS                                                               
According the research from ABSA Capital South Africa`s recovery from last      
year`s recession continues to impress, as first quarter GDP came in at 4.6% q/q 
saar (1.6% y/y). Output in the mining sector jumped by about 15% q/q (6.5% y/y) 
as production in the diamonds, coal, nickel and non-metallic mineral products   
sub-sectors picked up on the back of stronger export demand. Similarly,         
manufacturing production growth remained firm at an annualised quarterly 8.4% in
the first quarter as ongoing strong domestic and foreign demand for new vehicles
boosted output in the motor vehicles, parts and accessories-sub sector. The     
strong growth observed in the primary and secondary sectors of the economy was  
not mirrored in the tertiary sector of the economy, however. Against first      
quarter annualised q/q growth rates of nearly 12% in the primary sector and 7%  
in the secondary sector, the tertiary sector grew at a relatively modest 2.7% in
the first quarter. This shows that the further removed the sector is from the   
consumer, generally the stronger the cyclical recovery has been so far.         
According to ABSA Capital optimism over the consumer recovery is tempered       
somewhat when variables are considered in level rather than growth rate terms.  
Auto sales have been growing at a double-digit pace in the first half of the    
year, but in level terms they are still more than 30% down from their 2006      
peaks. Private sector credit extension remains flat-lined, and outside some     
growth in mortgage extension, other components of consumer credit are actually  
still shrinking (marginally) on a y/y basis. Part of the explanation is the     
labour market where about one million jobs were lost since the beginning of     
2009.                                                                           
Data recently released by Statistics South Africa indicate that employment      
dropped by another 0,5% quarter-on-quarter (q/q) in the second quarter of 2010, 
after employment has declined by 1,3% q/q in the first quarter.                 
According to Fitch Ratings the financial performance of Micro Finance           
Institutions are coming under increased pressure from higher impairment charges,
linked to a deterioration in asset quality, stagnant loan portfolio growth,     
higher funding cost and funding and refinancing risks due to current market     
conditions.  In the wake of the recent economic crisis, microfinance industry is
on the verge of a major transformation in 2010. Despite many assurances that the
diversity of funding sources to microfinance institutions (MFIs) would shield   
them from the global economic downturn, it now appears that funding to MFIs     
could shrink by as much as $2.3 billion this year. "2010 is going to be a year  
of reckoning for the industry," says Neil Lightfoot, banking strategy engagement
manager at consulting firm Genesis Analytics. "According to our analysis,       
microfinance funding - which amounted to $15 billion in 2009 - will contract by 
at least 15% during 2010."   In addition funding from International Financial   
Institutions ("IFI`s") and Development Financial Institutions ("DFI`s") are also
reaching its limits due to counterparty or country exposure limits. The fact    
that many MFI`s failed or are experiencing extreme liquidity constraints also   
contributes negatively to a very difficult fund raising environment. Funding    
constraints will have a significant funding and liquidity impact on many MFI`s  
and will contribute to increased levels of refinancing risks, particularly for  
non-deposit taking MFI`s dependant on local and international wholesale funding.
Fitch Ratings further points out that MFI loan portfolios are very cash flow    
generative given their relatively short term nature, which is a big positive in 
the current environment, by providing an important source of internally         
generated liquidity. Faced with refinancing constraints MFI`s may need to look  
to their loan books as a source of liquidity to service maturing obligations. As
a consequence lower growth scenarios for 2010 are very likely, falling from     
double digit growth to single digits or losses and where there are particular   
funding constraints shrinkage of the book is even possible.                     
Micro Finance                                                                   
Total segment revenue from Micro Finance activities, made up of interest, fee   
and insurance income (portfolio yield) grew 23.7% to R87,4 million (2009: R70,7 
million).                                                                       
Finbond Micro Finance achieved a net profit attributable to equity holders of   
R184k for the six months ended 31 August 2010, despite A) a significant increase
in net loan impairment expenses due to job losses and consumer distress in the  
current market environment and B) opening 31 new branches and closing 12        
unprofitable branches.                                                          
Bad debts experienced during the period deteriorated by 41%, with the net       
impairment loss ratio totalling 22.1%% (2009: 15.7%). Portfolio at risk (PaR90 -
outstanding loans with arrears over 90 days/ total gross loan portfolio) stands 
at 11.4%. This ratio has strengthened by 25% from 15.3% at 31 August 2009.      
Loan loss reserve, also referred to as the risk coverage ratio (Loan loss       
reserves (impairment provision)/ PaR90) stands at 89.3%, which is an indication 
of a Microfinance institution`s ability to cope with estimated loan losses. This
ratio is within industry norms.                                                 
Finbond`s debtors book remains geared at lower than one times, well below       
industry average.                                                               
Finbond`s liquidity position at the end of August 2010 reflects R51,5 million   
cash in bank and R25 million in undrawn facilities. Funding facilities are three
to five year facilities with the term of advances ranging between 30 days and   
twelve months (Finbond borrows long term and lends short term).                 
During the period under review strategic funding partner Standard Chartered Bank
extending Finbond a new term facility of R55 million as well as a new overdraft 
facility of R10 million after Finbond substantially paid down the previous      
Standard Chartered Bank facility. The tenor of the new term facility is three   
years. ABSA also extended Finbond an overdraft facility of R12 million.         
Strategic initiatives underway include:                                         
*    Offering funeral insurance in addition to the credit life insurance at all 
    branches,                                                                   
*    Offering cell phone handsets, cell phone air time and pre paid electricity 
    at all branches                                                             
*    Expanding the branch Network in Gauteng, Limpopo province, Southern Cape,  
    Northern Cape, Free State, North West, Mpumalanga and Africa                
Subject to obtaining the required funding Finbond is well positioned for the    
implementation of its growth and expansion plans in the micro finance market in 
South Africa and Africa.                                                        
Mortgage Origination and Property Investment                                    
For the period under review Mortgage Origination and Property Investment        
contributed less than 1 % to Finbond`s revenue.                                 
All Finbond`s mortgage origination activities have been out sourced and Finbond 
now mainly focus on Micro Finance business.                                     
EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW                                                              
General Overview                                                                
During the past six months, Finbond have continued the improvement and          
refinement of management structures, management information, upfront credit     
scoring, processes and pay date management and collection strategies at the back
end. Finbond have also continued to invest management time and money in building
the Finbond Micro Finance brand and a unified culture through:- Finbond branded 
clothing for personnel, marketing material, rebranding of branches, revamping of
branches, branch infrastructure spend, taxi branding, training of personnel and 
customers. The result of these initiatives will take time before the effect     
thereof will be visible in the bottom line performance of the Company; however  
these improvements have already started to show their worth in respect of       
quality of management information systems, standardised operating procedures and
internal control across the Group.                                              
There remain numerous challenges for Finbond in the short and medium term, not  
only in respect of the prevailing market conditions, but also relating to the   
ongoing process of improving the overall effectiveness of the Company to enable 
it to compete aggressively with its peers.                                      
In the six months under review strategic funding partner, The Netherlands       
Development Finance Company (FMO) have for the third time approved a Capacity   
Development Program for Finbond, which will allow the Group to further improve  
its core loan management system.                                                
Challenging Business Environment                                                
Despite the various challenges facing Finbond in the current business           
environment we remain committed to the Group`s principle objective of maximising
shareholder value.                                                              
According to ABSA research trends with regards to household credit extension    
show that the household sector is still experiencing a fair amount of financial 
pressure. Data recently released by Statistics South Africa indicate that       
employment dropped by another 0,5% quarter-on-quarter (q/q) in the second       
quarter of 2010, after employment has declined by 1,3% q/q in the first quarter.
Consumers` ability to spend and take up and service debt will be dependent on   
the performance of the economy in general, employment, income growth, interest  
rates and the level of existing debt.                                           
Our major challenge remains to get our Net Impairments Loss Ratio ("NILR") to   
acceptable levels. At the end of August 2010 our NILR was at 22,1% compared to  
15,7% the same period last year. We have taken a number of steps to further     
improve upfront credit scoring and collections that we believe will bear fruit  
in the short to medium term.                                                    
Finbond is in the process of building a sound platform and strategic base from  
which to grow its Micro Finance operations in South-Africa. The focus for the   
remainder of the year will be on improving the quality of our loan portfolio,   
stricter lending criteria, decreasing arrears rates, accessing long term        
funding, optimal capital utilisation, reducing operational cost, tighter        
liquidity management, and improved operational efficiency.                      
Prospects                                                                       
The challenging macro-economic environment, in the wake of the worldwide        
financial crisis and post recessionary environment in South Africa, as well as  
the adverse market conditions in the markets that Finbond operate in are not    
expected to abate in the short and medium term.                                 
Although the Group is confident that we have the required resources and depth in
management to successfully confront the various significant challenges facing   
Finbond, market conditions in general, and specifically higher impairment       
charges, higher cost of funding, refinancing risks and the lack of availability 
of funding could have a negative impact on the performance of the Group in the  
remainder of the year ahead.

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been   
prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. They do not

and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of 
the Group as at and for the year ended 28 February 2010.                        
The Board acknowledges its responsibility for the preparation of the unaudited  
consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with International      
Accounting Standard 34 (IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting) and the Listings  
Requirements of the JSE Limited.  These condensed consolidated interim financial
statements are unaudited and prepared using accounting policies consistent with 
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and in compliance with the

Board of Directors on 22 September 2010.                                        
Significant accounting policies                                                 
The accounting policies applied by the Group in these condensed consolidated    
interim financial statements are the same as those applied by the Group in its  
consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 28 February 2010.
Estimates                                                                       
The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make     
judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting 
policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense.
Actual results may differ from these estimates.                                 
In preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, the     
significant judgements made by management in applying the Group`s accounting    
policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those   
that applied to the consolidated financial statements as at and for the year    
ended 28 February 2010.
