REVIEWED PRELIMINARY CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR YEAR ENDED 28 FEBRUARY  
2011                                                                            
Highlights                                                                      
Commentary on the full year results for the period ended 28 February 2011       
General comments and prospects                                                  
IQuad experienced improved performance in the second half of the year under     
review; however, full-year results remain disappointing with headline earnings  
of R10.2m, a decline of 20.9% from the R12.9m achieved in 2010.                 
It is encouraging to note that the recent economic downturn is showing signs of 
recovery and while the turnaround has been slower than expected, we are seeing  
an increased appetite from clients to take on new investment projects.          
Organic growth prospects                                                        
The key insights gained in reviewing our 2011 results are summarised below and  
are further explained in the segmental commentary that follows:                 
1    Our incentives business performed below 2010 levels, achieving full year   
profits of R7.2m (2010: R11.6m). This underperformance is largely           
    attributed to a reduction in revenue in our incentive consulting services   
    division as a result of the transition from the old Small Medium Enterprise 
    Development Programme ("SMEDP")to the new Enterprise Investment Programme   
("EIP").                                                                    
2    Our verification business which is largely made up of Black Economic       
    Empowerment ("BEE") consulting and verification services experienced a      
    widening of losses from R1.2m in 2010 to R1.9m in 2011, despite a           
substantial increase in revenue. We have embarked on a restructuring of our 
    business model to reduce operating costs.                                   
3    Our global trade business reported excellent growth with full year profit  
    of R9.1m achieved (2010: R6.1m). A major portion of this growth came from   
customs duty recovery services for clients combined with a consistent       
    performance from our treasury operation.                                    
4    Group costs for the period under review have been negatively affected by   
    restructuring and relocation costs.                                         
Acquisitive growth prospects                                                    
During the period under review we finalised the acquisition of 100% of the      
shareholding in Kagiso Treasury Solutions ("Kagiso"). This operation is in the  
process of being integrated into our existing treasury outsourcing operations.  
Post the acquisition, IQuad`s treasury division is one of the largest,          
independent treasury operations in the country both in terms of clients serviced
and transactions processed.                                                     
The Group also acquired the remaining 26% in Export Credit Exchange (Pty) Ltd   
("ECE"), taking its total shareholding to 100%.                                 
Our objective is to be the preferred supplier of high impact strategic outsource
and compliance services to businesses and we will continue to seek out growth   
opportunities through suitable acquisitions that have a good fit with our core  
strategy. The identification of suitable and sizeable acquisitions is one of our
key objectives over the next 12 months.                                         
The Group has accordingly decided not to pay a final dividend for 2011 and will 
instead invest surplus funds into current and future business opportunities that
meet our investment criteria. The Group presently has a number of investment    
opportunities at various stages of consideration.                               
Goodwill impairment                                                             
Given the uncertainty surrounding the rate of recovery of the underlying        
economy, management deemed it appropriate to review the carrying value of our   
goodwill. This resulted in a goodwill impairment of R25.2m during the year under
review. Our goodwill carrying value has been re-assessed at year end and no     
further adjustments were required.                                              
Segment report                                                                  
Investment incentives                                                           
As noted above, this business pillar achieved results lower than the prior year 
due to a decline in revenue from our incentive consulting services.             
The reduction in revenue is largely attributable to the accelerated SMEDP       
payments by the Department of Trade and Industry ("DTI") in the second half of  
the previous financial year, which created a revenue gap between the old SMEDP  
and the new EIP programme.                                                      
Despite the below par financial results, there were some notable positive       
developments in the past 12 months:                                             
1    The DTI launched the Automotive Incentive Scheme ("AIS"), an incentive that
    targets the automotive industry and which forms part of the new Automotive  
Production and Development Programme due to be implemented in 2013. We have 
    submitted a total of 42 incentive applications under this scheme in the     
    past year which await DTI approval.                                         
2    The S12I tax incentive has been launched which targets large projects and  
provides additional tax allowances of up to R900m for investors.            
3    A total of 288 EIP incentive applications were submitted in the past year  
    compared with 253 in 2010.                                                  
Results from our Export Credit Exchange division, which is involved in the      
trading of Motor Industry Development Programme ("MIDP") Import Rebate Credit   
Certificates ("IRCC"), were in line with expectations. The automotive industry  
is showing signs of sustained recovery which should have a positive impact on   
the IRCC market.                                                                
Global trade services                                                           
This business pillar returned an exceptional performance due to record revenue  
levels and reduced overhead costs in their duty recovery activities.            
Profitability from treasury outsourcing services was consistent with the        
previous year, despite reduced trade volumes as a result of continued rand      
strength. We are satisfied that we have maintained our existing client base and 
taken on new business despite the trying economic environment. Annuity income   
comprises 73% of total income in this business pillar and is made up of fixed   
and commission-based fees. Performance income is directly linked to the results 
that we achieve on behalf of our clients and we have shown 19% growth in revenue
in this area of our business despite a reduction in currency under management.  
Business development                                                            
Our business development activities are primarily centred on providing ISO      
management systems implementation and consulting, and specialised IT solutions  
for the financial and retail sectors.                                           
Our focus over the last year has been to stabilise this business segment and to 
curtail historical loss trends. Good progress has been made in our technologies 
business mainly due to our involvement in a strategic payment solution for one  
of the major banks. This project is expected to provide good levels of annuity  
income for the next two to three years and serve as a platform to solidify and  
expand the business.                                                            
Audit and verification                                                          
Our BEE verification business unit has once again shown substantial growth, with
full year revenue increasing by more than 100% on the previous year.            
Unfortunately, this revenue growth has come without a resulting improvement in  
the profitability of the business necessitating a re-evaluation of the business 
structure.                                                                      
We have embarked on a restructuring process to improve efficiency and reduce    
fixed overheads. These restructuring plans are in the process of being          
implemented and we are positive that the decisive action taken will see a marked
improvement in the profitability of this business segment.                      
We continue to see a steady demand for new verification work in spite of the    
difficult economic conditions.                                                  
Cash flow                                                                       
The Group generated R5.6m cash from its operating activities after investing a  
further R1.95m in working capital. Cash raised from the sale of a portion of the
Port Elizabeth property was mainly utilised for the Kagiso and ECE acquisitions 
and reduction in the mortgage bond.                                             
Dividends of R8.5m were paid during the year compared with R6.7m in 2010.       
Acknowledgement                                                                 
Finally, we would like to express our appreciation to management and staff for  
their dedicated commitment and assistance over the last year.

Available for sale liabilities (NMT)         -                 (362)            
During the previous financial year, the Group acquired National Money Transfer  
(Pty) Ltd ("NMT") with the intention to re-sell and as a result the investment  
and its related liabilities were disclosed as held for sale.                    
The proposed disposal of NMT did not materialise and the subsidiary has been    
consolidated on the full method as prescribed in IAS 27.                        
The note on acquisitions and disposals of subsidiaries below provides further   
information.                                                                    
The Group disposed of a portion of the investment property for R14m at a profit 
of R268 563. The purchase consideration was settled by the transfer of R11.8m in
cash and the balance remains as a loan of R2.2m owing to the Group. Transfer of 
the property took place on 27 September 2010.                                   
Acquisition and disposals of subsidiaries                                       
On 1 March 2010, the Group acquired the remaining 26% non-controlling interest  
in Export Credit Exchange (Pty) Ltd for R2 324 000 in cash. This transaction did
not result in a change in control and must be accounted for as an equity        
transaction as per IAS 27 (Revised). Under the previous IAS 27 this would have  
resulted in additional goodwill being recognised.                               
On 1 December 2009 the Group increased its shareholding in NMT from 17% to 83%. 
The book and fair values of the net assets acquired in the NMT business         
combination on the date control was obtained, 1 December 2009, were as follows: 
                                            NMT

The subsidiary was acquired with the intention to re-sell and accordingly met   
the criteria to be consolidated on the basis of recording the fair value of the 
assets and liabilities of the held for sale disposal group as a single          
investment during the previous year.                                            
Accordingly the subsidiary was disclosed as a non-current asset held for sale as
at 28 February 2010.                                                            
The proposed sale did not materialise and the subsidiary has subsequently been  
consolidated on the full method as prescribed in IAS 27 from 1 March 2010.      
The resulting business combination gave rise to negative goodwill of R104 704   
which has already been taken into account in the prior year financial results   
when the non-current asset held for sale was adjusted to its fair value.        
The Group believes that NMT`s information technology services offers significant
opportunities for growth. NMT provides a suite of financial service and payment 
platforms for the retail, banking and third-party payment sectors.              
The following net assets were fully consolidated into the Group                 
on 1 March 2010:

On 1 September 2010, the Group acquired a 100% interest in Kagiso Treasury      
Solutions (Pty) Ltd ("Kagiso") for R4 792 539. Kagiso offers treasury management
and advisory services to corporate clients.                                     
The purchase price was partly settled in cash of R3 582 987. The balance of the 
purchase price is payable when a critical contract has been secured by Kagiso.  
This contingent consideration has been valued by Group management using         
statistical probabilities and is included in the purchase price allocation      
below.                                                                          
Goodwill of R3 471 557 arose on the transaction which relates to the future     
synergies that will result from the business combination.                       
The Group believes that the Kagiso business combination will enhance the growth 
of the global trade business pillar through cost synergies.                     
The book and fair values of the net assets acquired in the business combination 
are as follows:

Given the uncertainty in the rate of recovery of the global economy, management 
deemed it appropriate, as at the interim reporting date, to re-assess the       
assumptions that were used in the impairment testing done of goodwill. The      
impairment losses that arose and were reported in the interim results were      
ascertained by value-in-use calculations and pertain to the following cash-     
generating units:

Further impairment tests were done at year end using pre-tax discount rates that
generally range between 28% and 32%. No further impairments were considered     
necessary.                                                                      
In performing these value-in-use calculations management estimated average long-
term growth rates based on historical trends, taking into account inherent      
industry risk and specific management knowledge.                                
Adjustments were made for the current prolonged market conditions.              
The period over which the projected cash flows were forecasted is five years.   
A reconciliation of the Group`s goodwill is provided below:
