The accounting policies applied by the Group in these condensed consolidated    
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.

Stimulus has 1,236,800 preference shares in issue, which shares are listed on   
the Namibian Stock Exchange. The ordinary shares of Stimulus are not listed on  
any Exchange.                                                                   
COMMENTARY: REVIEW OF RESULTS                                                   
Stimulus owns a majority stake in the Joe`s Beerhouse Group of Companies,       
which results are incorporated in the Stimulus Group Financial Statements. In   
order to provide users with a better understanding of Stimulus` results         
pertaining to its private equity investments, the company`s unconsolidated      
results, cashflows and financial position are presented in addition to those    
of the Group.                                                                   
Our forecasts that our retail-focused investments would see muted growth in     
the year under review due to a belated slump in consumer demand proved correct  
in a few of our underlying investments. The overall portfolio however           
continued to show resilience with a portfolio growth of 7.67%.                  
The Board`s focus during the past year was on restructuring the portfolio and   
implementing early exit strategies for certain investments. Stimulus            
accordingly exited from two investments namely, Westair Maintenance (Pty) Ltd   
and One Africa Television (Pty) Ltd. The proceeds from these exit transactions  
will be distributed in the form of a dividend to preference shareholders as     
further detailed below. The cost and fair value of Stimulus` total portfolio    
investment subsequent to these transactions are as follows:                     
Cost - N$         Fair value - N$         
Equity investments in and loans to                                              
private Namibian companies                                                      
                                                                121,440,657

The fair value calculations are based on conservative valuations of the         
underlying unlisted equity investments using the discounted cash flow method    
of valuation, and where necessary, discounting factors have been adjusted to    
take into account the current economic environment.                             
The holders of Stimulus` listed preference shares are entitled to 80% of all    
cash returns realised in the company provided that the preference               
shareholders earn at least the prescribed hurdle rate on their subscription     
value. To date, even though the unrealised returns comfortably exceed the       
hurdle rate of return, the realised returns of the portfolio are below the      
hurdle rate and as such all current realised returns are distributed to the     
preference shareholders. Based on the most recent director valuations of the    
portfolio, the net asset value as at 28 February 2011 ascribable to each        
preference share is 10,267 cents per share. Following the payment of the        
dividend detailed below, this value will reduce to 9,051 cents per share.       
RISK MANAGEMENT AND REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT                                      
Risk management is a key ingredient in the successful management of the         
portfolio and we will continue to review and update our post deal risk          
management processes on an ongoing basis.                                       
The promulgation of the new Companies Act and the Competition Commission        
have both changed the legislative environment in which private equity           
companies operate. The continued uncertainty regarding Regulation 28 of the     
Pensions Fund Act makes it difficult to raise capital in the Namibian           
market. This has been exacerbated by the release of the Draft Regulation 29.    
We believe that the unique experience of Stimulus as the oldest private         
equity fund in Namibia will stand us in good stead in our continued             
deliberations, together with other industry players, with Namfisa in the        
formulation of a workable and sensible regulation which does not undermine      
the unlisted asset class that regulation 28 purports to stimulate.              
PROSPECTS                                                                       
The 2011 calendar year commenced on a positive note and we expect value         
growth in all our investment companies for the 2012 financial year.             
Maintaining a positive growth rate will remain a key focus point going          
forward. The portfolio further remains well positioned through its              
participation in various market leaders in Namibia.                             
Stimulus is now in its seventh year of operation and represents a well
