Unaudited Group Results for the six-month period ended 31 December 2010
Highlights

* Further margin improvement
* Good performance by Hosaf and automotive divisions
Performance
We submit our report to shareholders on the results and activities of KAP
International for the six months ended 31 December 2010.
The group`s strategy of aggressive cost cutting in the early phase of the
downturn has proved successful in the light of the results of the last two
years.
Revenue and earnings
Revenue from continuing operations for the period increased to R2 235 million
from R2 026 million in the previous period, due to good growth in Hosaf and
the automotive divisions.
Operating profit of R107 million has improved by 9% from the prior period.
Interest cost has reduced further due to lower borrowings and interest rates.
Headline earnings of 13,9 cents per share have improved from 11,0 cents in
the 2009 period.
Financial position and cash flow
Following sustained focus on cash generation and working capital, net
interest-bearing borrowings have decreased to R260,2 million (December 2009:
R453,7 million). The debt/equity ratio at end-December was 18,6%.
This cash was generated by strong operating cash flows, tight working capital
management and strict control over capital expenditure.
Operational overview
Industrial segment
Feltex Automotive
The division benefited from an increase in vehicle build over the period
(2010: 225 616 units vs 2009: 174 392). Expenses, working capital and capital
expenditure remain under tight control, with satisfactory cash generated as a
result. The division is benefiting from increased capacity installed in
previous years.
Industrial footwear
Trading in United Fram and Wayne Plastics remained competitive due to a
reduction in construction activity after June 2010. A renewed focus on
marketing coupled with a weaker Rand should alleviate some of this pressure
going forward. Increasing hide prices have also put Mossop`s cyclical results
under pressure.
Hosaf
The expanded PET plant is running well at maximum throughput and sales
volumes have grown as the local market for new PET packaging products has
increased in the food industry. The performance underscores our decision to
expand the plant two years ago.
Consumer segment
Bull Brand Foods
The division generated significant cash from working capital over the period,
and this remains a continued focus area. Trading conditions are difficult due
to the increased competition from imported products, particularly fish.
Brenner Mills
Following the significant reduction in the white maize price in the second
half of the 2010 financial year, the price has recovered in the first half of
2010/11. Volumes were under pressure as Brenner followed an approach of
maintaining margins.
Jordan
Sales volumes increased by some 26% (306 000 pairs) to 1,4 million for the
six-month period. Lower price points were achieved due to the effect of the
stronger Rand on Jordan`s imported footwear, and new product lines.
Glodina
Sales increased by 9% due to greater volumes at the major chains. Margins
came under some pressure due to the dramatic increase in the cotton price
over the period.
Corporate activity
As previously announced on SENS, a portion of Hosaf`s property in Cape Town
was sold to Steinhoff Properties (Pty) Limited, a related party, for a cash
consideration of R14,7 million (in line with a fair market valuation report),
subject to approval of the sub-division of the property by the relevant
authorities.
Directors and officers
J B Magwaza has been appointed as lead independent non-executive director.
Distribution
In line with previous years, the group will not pay an interim distribution.
Outlook
The group continues to focus on cash generation and cost control. Our past
restructuring efforts have placed us in a strong position to capitalise on
growth opportunities.
Appreciation
We are grateful to our shareholders, employees and other stakeholders, and
thank them for their continued support.
