COMMENTS ON RESULTS
Despite the challenging economic conditions that prevailed for much of the year,
Indequity is pleased to report very satisfactory results. Profits before
taxation increased to R1,8 million which represents a return on ordinary
shareholders funds of 23%.
More importantly, cash and cash equivalents increased by R4,7 million as a
result of the liquidation of the Group`s interest in African Brick Centre
Limited as well as a pleasing contribution from the Group`s operations.
INSURANCE OPERATIONS
The insurance business continued to grow strongly over the past year. As
predicted, the past efforts in establishing a superior quality business are now
bearing fruit. Management`s focus in enhancing the quality of risks it
underwrites together with strict cost management, and in particular claims
costs, has resulted in this business being able to report outstanding results.
Profit before taxation of the separate company financial statements of Indequity
Specialised Insurance Limited increased to R3,4 million which represents a pre-
tax return on equity of 49,1%.
However, we hasten to caution that this remarkable performance is unlikely to be
repeated annually, especially by an insurance company. Nevertheless, this
business fired on all cylinders during this year and importantly, we managed to
avoid any large catastrophic incidents. Again we wish to illustrate the
progress made by this business through the following statistics:

Going forward, we intend to continue with the same formula which has brought
about
this successful outcome.
INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT OPERATIONS
The exceptionally challenging global equity markets also took their toll on
Indequity`s investment business. Assets under management decreased as a result
of the significant downward share price movements in global markets.
Consequently, asset management fee income decreased by 20,8 % to R2,4 million.
On the positive side, there were few withdrawals of funds by clients as clients
generally have an understanding of and appreciation for these extraordinary
circumstances. Furthermore this also bears testimony to the faith that clients
have in Indequity`s abilities to continue to add significant value to their
portfolios as conditions normalize. It is noteworthy that Indequity`s unit
trusts continued to perform in line with those of its peers. In addition, as
Indequity`s funds are now listed on various so called "platforms" we are
confident that this will assist us to grow assets under management during the
years to come.
INVESTMENT BANKING & PRIVATE EQUITY
The positive contribution by this division occurred largely as a result of the
final liquidation of the group`s stake in African Brick Centre Limited. Much
has already been said in the past about the group`s investment in this entity.
However, we wish to add that the difficulty in comprehending this transaction
was exacerbated by the required accounting treatment of this investment.
Mainly as a result of this investment, Indequity reported a profit before
taxation in 2007 of R15,6 million and a pre-tax loss of R7,8 million in 2008.
Obviously, the net result was a significantly profitable one for the group.
Seeing that this stake has now finally been liquidated, the results of the group
will henceforth reflect the ongoing more stable business operations and should
be easier to comprehend.
PROSPECTS
With the global economic crisis seemingly receding, we are confident that this
will have a positive impact on group operations as a whole. We intend to
continue to focus on building superior quality business operations and to build
on the success of the past.
We will continually strive to enhance, optimise and simplify operations and
group structures for the long-term benefit of our stakeholders.
AUDIT OPINION
The annual financial statements have been audited by Grant Thornton. Both the

DIVIDEND
No ordinary dividend has been declared for the year under review.
