The group achieved another year of strong revenue growth of 30% (2010:          
29%). This was achieved by solid growth across our existing platforms and       
the first effects of looklocal revenues.                                        
Current year profits have been negatively impacted by the fraudulent            
activities of the previous Financial Director, the write-off of                 
irrecoverable receivables, an increase in the provision for doubtful debts      
and the initial costs relating to launching looklocal. The Group has            
initiated a criminal charge against the previous Financial Director. The        
earnings enhancing benefit of looklocal  is only expected to be evident         
following the completion of the initial roll-out plan towards the end of        
the financial year ending 31 March 2012. looklocal  is an important             
strategic initiative for the group.                                             
Investment income increased significantly reflecting the benefit of the         
issue of 30.8 million shares for R20.9 million cash in August 2010.             
The aforegoing has resulted in a net loss of R3.76 million for the year         
(2010: net profit R1.63 million), representing a loss of 3.94 cents per         
share (2010: 2.15 cents profit per share).                                      
While the group`s operating cash flow for the year reflects the trading         
loss reported, the group had in excess of R24 million in cash reserves and      
highly liquid investments at year-end and remains debt free.                    
Operating results                                                               
Another year of circa 30% revenue growth confirms that our strategy over        
the last 18 months of extending and deepening our various web and broadcast     
platforms is producing the desired financial result.                            
During the year we concluded an arrangement with the Caxton group in terms      
of which Moneyweb will build, manage and operate a portfolio of                 
geographically focused (hyper-local) community websites, under the              
looklocal brand. By year-end, 29 looklocal sites had gone live and we           
expect to complete the initial roll-out by 31 March 2012. Subsequent to         
year end we have launched our first iPad application for Mineweb, which is      
available for download on the Apple iTunes store. Plans are well advanced       
for additional applications, both on the Apple and Android platforms.           
Prospects                                                                       
We will continue to increase our focus by looking to drive additional           
revenues across our flagship platforms. Our decision post year end to           
discontinue Mineweb`s joint venture arrangements with Infomine will allow       
us to pursue revenue opportunities from which we were previously precluded.     
Furthermore, as indicated above, we anticipate increasing contributions         
from both looklocal and the roll-out of our Apps strategy as these gain         
traction.                                                                       
Post balance sheet events                                                       
There are no other material events subsequent to the year-end that have not     
been reflected in the reviewed financial results for the year ended 31          
March 2011 or that require further disclosure.
