FINANCIAL REVIEW                                                                
Indequity`s results for the 6 months ending 31 March 2012 reflect a continuance 
of the earnings growth experienced over the last 4 years with profit before tax 
increasing by 13% on the excellent results reported for the same period of the  
prior financial year. The results display Indequity`s effective utilisation of  
capital resources with a pre-tax return on capital of 40%.                      
Taking into consideration the difficult economic conditions that persisted and  
claim costs still under pressure throughout the short-term insurance industry,  
Indequity is pleased to report an 8% increase in underwriting profit and a 10%  
increase in gross written premium year on year. This growth is testament to     
Indequity`s disciplined underwriting approach. Indequity`s claims costs as a    
percentage of net written premium remained stable on 49% compared to the        
industry average of approximately 61%.                                          
Profit after tax increased by 7% from R1,7 million for the same period of the   
prior financial year to R1,8 million. The lower increase in profit after tax    
compared to profit before tax, is due to a higher effective tax rate for the    
current period.                                                                 
The continued improvement and growth of Indequity over this period resulted in  
an increase in cash and cash equivalents from R16,0 million at 30 September 2011
to R19,0 million at 31 March 2012, an increase of R3,0 million.                 
PROSPECTS                                                                       
Management remains optimistic about the prospects for the second half of the    
year, but is cautious given increasing competition in the industry as well as   
the inherent uncertainty of any insurance business. The company will continue   
its efforts to optimise profitability with a focus on building a superior       
quality business, building on successes of the past and improving efficiencies. 
Indequity is well positioned to face current challenges with its unique product 
and a quality existing business.
