CCL - Compu-Clearing Outsourcing Limited - Reviewed preliminary condensed       
results for the year ended 30 June 2010, cash dividend declaration and notice   
of annual general meeting                                                       
COMPU-CLEARING OUTSOURCING LIMITED

("Compu-Clearing" or "the Company" or "The Group")                              
REVIEWED PRELIMINARY CONDENSED RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2010, CASH    
DIVIDEND DECLARATION AND NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING                       
Commentary                                                                      
The results for the year under review reflect an encouraging 38% increase in    
operating profit, up from 9% for the first six months, during a period of       
continued difficult trading conditions. A 9% increase in turnover and           
contained growth in operational expenses of 2,5% are the key contributors to    
this increase.  Included in operating costs are R1,9 million of expenses,       
relating to the Cargowise division. Contracts for the rollout of Cargowise      
have been concluded with several clients and the division is due to generate    
its first revenues during the 2011 financial year. A satisfactory 13% growth    
in profit before income tax includes net financial income of R1,4 million       
(2009- R2,6 million), which reflects the lower bank balances held by the        
Group.                                                                          
Profit for the year of R7,5 million (2009 -R6,5 million) was achieved after a   
charge of R1,03 million for STC (Secondary Tax on Companies) (2009-R1,02        
million), arising from the payment of a dividend during the year under          
review.                                                                         
Cash generation continues to be strong with cash generated from operations      
amounting to 116% (2008-149%) of operating profit. Cash balances remain a       
very healthy R17,0 million , (2009-R25,2 million ) after distributions to       
shareholders of R10,3 million  (2009-R10,2 million) and R3 million invested     
in a building refurbishment project.                                            
Prospects                                                                       
There are tangible indications that the decline in import volumes, which are    
closely linked to the Group`s revenues, has bottomed out. Revenues for the      
Cargowise division will come on stream from July 2010, expanding the Group`s    
revenue base. Management continue to focus on maintaining the operating         
margin at a satisfactory level.
