Two new stores were opened during this quarter, two stores
closed (trading in close proximity to other existing stores)
and nine stores were refurbished resulting in the number of
stores trading at the end of the financial year remaining at
191.
Despite the competitive trading environment, gross profit
margins continued to edge higher during the fourth quarter and
are at levels higher than those experienced during the first
half. Selling price inflation was around 3% at the end of June
2012 when compared to June 2011.

Prospects
Management expects trading conditions to remain competitive
into the first quarter of the new financial year. Store
development activity is expected to deliver one new store,
four refits and at least two relocations in the first quarter
of the new financial year.
