REVIEW OF OPERATIONS AND INTERIM GROUP RESULTS                                  
The results for the period under review were unsatisfactory and disappointing.  
The adverse gross margin of R10,9m is mainly attributable to an unfavourable    
stock variance, disruptions in production and consequent excessive overtime due 
to strike actions, the costs of new pattern testing as noted below and a        
national shortage of bentonite (a key input in the castings process).           
The protracted strike occurred at a critical stage of supply of new products to 
new customers. The need to meet the company`s obligation for reliable delivery  
and quality necessitated extended overtime amounting to R6,2m.                  
The stock take at 30 September 2011 revealed an unexpected adverse stock        
variance of 500 tons of produced goods to a value of R5,4m. Management, together
with the internal auditors are investigating the reasons and causes of the      
variance, including the possibility of theft.                                   
During the period under review, 106 new patterns compared to a norm of 3 to 4   
per month were requested, made and delivered, highlighting the success of the   
drive to broaden the product and customer base. New patterns demand extensive   
management time and testing on the production line, representing an investment  
for the future viability of the business. The research and development costs and
the cost of lost time for normal production as a result of this process amount  
to some R7,4m.                                                                  
Prospects/The future of Guestro                                                 
Despite the setbacks described above, the board continues to believe that,      
amongst the options available to the company, the strategy adopted to           
reconfigure the product and customer base holds the greatest prospect for       
preserving value for shareholders in the medium term. The turn-around, which    
envisages a broader customer base, requiring quality products, capable of       
efficient manufacture at high utilisation of existing capacity, is underway and 
is closely monitored.                                                           
Net asset value as at 30 September 2011                                         
The net asset value per share as at 30 September 2011 at 233 cents per share is 
82 cents lower than the 315 cents per share as at 31 March 2011.                
The net asset value is mainly attributable to cash, Guestro Castings, the Benoni
Property, Corporate Head Office less the historical employee benefit            
liabilities.                                                                    
The net asset value at 30 September 2011 can be summarised as follows:          
Benoni property                  R40, 6 million  or 120 cents per share         
Casting business                 R32, 2 million  or 95 cents per share          
Cash                             R43, 8 million  or 129 cents per share         
Less:                                                                           
Net employee fund liabilities    R23, 4 million  or -69 cents per share         
Other net corporate liabilities  R14, 1 million  or -42 cents per share         
Total net asset value            R79, 1 million                                 
The net asset value does not consider the possible impact of Secondary Tax on   
Companies (STC). Due to the assessed tax losses and capital losses within the   
relevant corporate entities, the Group is not expected to pay Income Tax or     
Capital Gains Tax in the foreseeable future.                                    
Segmental reporting                                                             
The primary segment during the period was general engineering.  In terms of the 
geographical segment, general engineering is considered to be a South African   
operation.  Due to the fact that the whole business is considered as one        
segment, no segmental reporting has been provided.                              
Subsequent events                                                               
There have been no matters which are material to the financial affairs of the   
Company or the Group that have occurred between the balance sheet date and the  
date of the approval of the interim results.                                    
Basis of preparation                                                            
The results for the six months ended 30 September 2011 have been prepared in    
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), IAS 34 -    
Interim Financial Reporting, the AC 500 Standards, the Companies Act and the    
Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited. The accounting policies are consistent
with those applied in the prior comparative period.

September 2011, was supervised by BD Bhikha, the Financial Director.

Mr BP Wood, the Financial Director, resigned from the Board effective 30 June   
2011 in order to take up a position in his home town of Port Elizabeth. Mr BD   
Bhikha was appointed as Financial Director in an interim position effective 29  
August 2011.
