30 June 2011.                                                                   
The interim financial statements have been prepared under                       
the supervision of the group financial director, Mr. Gary                       
Driver.                                                                         
COMMENTARY                                                                      
Financial performance                                                           
Revenue decreased from R213.8 million, for the six months                       
ended 31 December 2010("the comparative period"), to R209.3                     
million, for the six months ended 31 December 2011 ("the current period"),      
mainly as a result of trading volume decline in  O-line Support Systems         
(Pty) Limited ("O-line Support Systems") of 11.06%.  Armco Superlite (Pty)      
Limited ("Armco") experienced a trading volume increase of 5.13% and O-Line     
Holdings (Mocambique) Limitada ("O-line Mocambique") also experienced a         
trading volume increase. This represents a net 2.11% decrease in revenue for    
the current period compared to the comparative period. Gross profit             
decreased from R66.3 million in the comparative period to R65.9m over the       
current period.                                                                 
O-line Support Systems and Armco Superlite achieved gross                       
profit margins for the current period of 32.5% and 28.6%                        
respectively, while O-line Mocambique achieved a gross                          
profit margin of 14% for the current period, excessive transportation costs     
impacting negatively on their gross margin. The Group`s operating profit for    
the current period decreased by 17.6%, from R27.2 million in the comparative    
period to R22.4 million in the current period, whilst operating expenses        
increased by 11.1% from R39.7 million to R44.1 million. Finance costs           
decreased from R2.7 million in the comparative period to R2.2 million in the    
current period, this is mainly attributable to the decrease in borrowings as    
Group debt has been settled.                                                    
Cash and cash equivalents have increased from R35.2 million in the              
comparative period to R44.6 million in the current period.                      
The Group will continue to utilise its available cash to                        
finance operations, for expansion and to settle debt. The                       
Group also experienced the following decreases / increases,                     
compared to the comparative period:                                             
                                                                                
    *    Borrowings reflect a net decrease of R6.6 million from R50.8           
         million to R44.2 million, this is in line with repayments in terms     
of loan agreements entered into by the Group. A new medium term        
         loan of R8 million was drawn down to purchase the property for the     
         Randfontein galvanising facility;                                      
                                                                                
*    Trade and other payables increased by R22.8 million to R49.5           
         million, a substantial portion of the increase being attributable      
         to advance payments received by Armco;                                 
                                                                                
*    Trade and other receivables decreased by R8.6 million to R44.8         
         million following the overall downward trend in sales volumes for      
         the period and better debtors collections;                             
                                                                                
*    Cash generated from operations increased from R1.6 million to          
         R40.5 million mainly as a result of a decreased cash investment in     
         working capital as reflected in the decrease in trade receivables      
         and an increase in trade payables and inventory at the current         
period end compared to the corresponding period. While the timing      
         of the period end resulted in a negative impact on trade payables      
         and receivables, working capital management remains a key area of      
         focus for the Group;                                                   

    *    Inventory also increased from R72.6 million to R87.4 million to        
         support the increase in trading activities at Armco and O-line         
         Mocambique; and                                                        

    *    Capital expenditure increased from R2.1 million in the comparative     
         period to R11 million mainly as a result of the acquisition of the     
         Randfontein property for the new galvanising facility.                 
Operational Performance and Prospects                                           
Operational performance of the Group pertaining to the                          
period were heavily subdued as a result of diminishing                          
margins relating to continuous increases in Power, Gas and                      
labour. Further aggravation came in the form of the Metal                       
Workers Union strikes forcing the Group to evacuate                             
manufacturing premises for a period due to the violence and                     
intimidation. O-line Support Systems was severely affected                      
due to the extended time lines of materials flow from order                     
to expediting resulting in increased inventory levels.                          
Armco`s ability of quick recovery helped lessen the affect                      
and fared well in providing a fair set of results.  The                         
first quarter resulted in some divisional losses relating                       
to the above, this left the Group with a mere three months                      
of proper operations considering taking into play December                      
is construction close down. In order to manage the deficit                      
the Group will focus around savings and efficiencies                            
through the reduction of overtime and downsizing of the                         
work force, although this will not allow for total recovery                     
it will assist in reducing operating costs of which in turn                     
will provide for some relief. Looking ahead to the third                        
and fourth quarters both Armco and O-line will continue the                     
strategic approach of cost saving through mechanisations                        
and will focus on the start of supply of goods and services                     
to the Kusile Power Stations accompanied by the future
