RESULTS ANALYSIS
Phumelela continues to adapt and invest in securing its future
The period under review was characterised by solid progress in all business areas and
ongoing initiatives to secure a sustainable financial future by diversifying and
internationalising. Betting on sports other than horseracing and international income
underpinned a pleasing overall result.

Total income grew by 19% to R786,5 million with local income growing by 18% to
R659,7 million and international income growing by 29% to R126,7 million.

Local net betting income grew by 18% to R497,2 mllion and other local income grew by 6%
to R119,6 million. Other operating income from international operations grew by 26% to
R132,2 million. Net income, after investment income of R0,5 million, was 17% higher at
R749,5 million. 

Including international and local equity accounted profits of R43,4 million, which was up 
by 119%, group pre-tax profit increased by 27% to R75,2 million.

Net attributable income and headline earnings increased by 31% to R65,0 million, assisted
by a positive fair value adjustment and a slightly lower effective tax rate. 

Adjusted headline earnings increased by 19% to R64,5 million. The adjusted result excludes
the legal and consulting fees associated with combatting piracy of the group's intellectual
property and the mark to market adjustment for the investment held in Automatic 
Systems Limited ("ASL").

In order to fulfill obligations in respect of shares exercisable in terms of the executive
option schemes, the company previously repurchased shares and so the weighted average
number of shares in issue was 1.13% lower. Consequently, earnings per share grew 
marginally more than total earnings.

Earnings per share increased by 32%, headline earnings per share increased by 33%, and
adjusted headline earnings per share increased by 21%.

This pleasing result is against a backdrop of a weak domestic economy and a weakening in
the Rand. Against the British pound, the Rand averaged R21.54 for the period compared with
R17.75, which is an 18% weakening that resulted in more Rand recognised on translation of
foreign currency. The group benefitted from a foreign exchange gain of R9,6 million. 

Income and profitability accelerated across the retail footprint. International operations
performed significantly better in both foreign currency terms and in Rand and are on a 
firm footing for further growth on the back of a world-class South African thoroughbred
horseracing export product. 

Pre-tax profits from tote betting on sports other than horseracing, from the Group's fixed
odds business and limited pay-out machines grew by 34% in the period to R128 million.
Despite this enormous achievement, the local operations incurred a loss this period of 
R7 million. 

Phumelela has been calling for a fairer funding dispensation for the sport of thoroughbred 
horseracing. The losses incurred in the Group's traditional business of staging
horseracing and conducting tote betting thereon also give financial context to the
necessary legal fight against flagrant piracy of the group's intellectual property by
certain bookmakers. 

SOUTH AFRICA OPERATIONS
Fixed odds operations performed strongly and returned materially increased profits. 
Net fixed odds betting income on horseracing, sports other than horseracing, and numbers
betting all showed significant growth. Money wagered on fixed odds increased by 46%.

Fixed odds betting on numbers continue to experience exceptional growth and doubled 
during the period. Fixed odds betting on sports other than horseracing remains popular,
and grew by 29%. 

Net betting income from local tote and fixed odds operations grew by 18% and other income
from local operations grew by 6%. The increase in tote betting income was due entirely to
tote betting on sports other than horseracing, which now comprises a 33% share of total 
tote bets. 

Total operating expenses in the local tote and fixed odds operations grew by 21% and
reflects the growth in the expanded retail footprint, IFRS 2 share-based payment charges
for options expected to vest by year end, incentive bonus payments and legal and
consulting fees associated with combatting piracy abuse of the group's intellectual 
property by bookmakers and related legal matters. 

Like-for-like normalised expenses in the local tote operations grew by 8%. Across 
both tote and fixed odds operations like-for-like expenses grew by 15%, largely a 
reflection of investment in retail. Day to day operating expenses in the local 
operations remain tightly controlled. 

Prize monies increased by 3% in accordance with the agreement with the Racing Association.

The 26% investment in Interbet positively affected equity accounted income and investment
returns. 

Civil and criminal lawsuits have been filed and will be filed against all local bookmakers
who are unlawfully displaying Tellytrack. As at reporting date, 232 bookmakers have
subscribed to Tellytrack. 

INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS
Phumelela's 50% investment in Premier Gateway International (PGI), located on the Isle of
Man, together with the export of live broadcast of South African horseracing to six
continents, contributed positively for the period. The combined pre-tax profit contribution
of R77,5 million comprises 106% of group pre-tax profit before the ASL fair value
adjustment compared with 91% in 2015.

International demand for South African horseracing content and betting thereon remained
buoyant with the result that net income from international operations increased by 26% to
R132 million.

Operating expenses increased by 44% to R95,5 million. More than half of the expense
comprises intellectual property rights fees and the remainder normal running costs.

The mark to market gain on ASL of R2 million compared to a loss last year. The group's
investment in ASL is a held for sale. 

FINANCIAL POSITION 
Despite increases in costs associated with staging thoroughbred horseracing in South
Africa, Phumelela continues to invest in the sport and ensuring that there is a sound
basis for exporting excellent content globally. Furthermore, as investments in
complementary activities yield improving returns the cash flow and financial position of
the group is bolstered. 

Cash generated from operating activities was R58,1 million and benefitted from reduced
working capital of R9 million. 

Capital expenditure, including stay in business and expansion, was R37,6 million compared
to R31,2 million last year. 

Dividends paid to equity shareholders amounted to R44,7 million.

Total assets are R864 million, which includes property, plant and equipment at a carrying
value of R453 million, goodwill and intangibles valued at R64 million, and equity accounted
investees valued at R56 million. 

Attributable equity amounts to R474 million and represents net asset value per share of
636,17 cents. 

Net debt is a negligible R4,9 million and represents a debt to equity ratio of 1%.

The group has adequate banking facilities and reserve borrowing capacity.

SHARE CAPITAL 
There was no movement in authorised or issued share capital during the period.

INVESTMENTS
In September 2015 the Group concluded an agreement to acquire a 51% shareholding in Afribet
(Pty) Limited, a retail bookmaking concern licensed in the Eastern Cape. The Eastern Cape
Gambling and Betting Board granted approval on 14 December 2015 and suspensive conditions
were fulfilled post the half year end.

On 9 December 2015 Phumelela announced that the Company had agreed with Supabets SA
Holdings (Pty) Ltd ("Supabets") and its controlling shareholder, the Anastassopoulos
Family Investments Holding Company (Pty) Ltd ("AF"), to acquire 50% of the shares in
Supabets. Supabets is one of the leading and fastest growing sports betting and gaming
groups in Africa with a specific focus in the high growth fixed odds sports betting
market. Founded in 2008, Supabets has grown substantially in a relatively short time and
has captured a meaningful share of the South African sports betting market through its
unique product offering, high customer service standards, strategically located retail
network and strong brand recognition. This investment is subject to the fulfillment of
certain conditions precedent including, inter alia, regulatory approvals, Supabets and
AF restructuring and the completion of a due diligence investigation. The group expects
implementation in the latter half of the calendar year.

CONDENSED SEGMENTAL ANALYSIS
The group stages horseracing events in South Africa, offers betting opportunities on 
South African and international sports, and exports televisual horseracing content
internationally. Reporting disclosure corresponds to management reporting lines.

REPORTING ENTITY
Phumelela Gaming and Leisure Limited is a company domiciled in South Africa. The condensed
consolidated interim financial statements as at 31 January 2016 comprise of the Company
and its subsidiaries and the Group's interests in equity accounted investees and a joint
operation. 

STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE AND PRESENTATION 
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the six months ended
31 January 2016 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 - Interim Financial
Reporting, the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices
Committee and Financial Reporting Pronouncements as issued by the Financial Reporting
Standards Council, the Listing Requirements of the JSE Limited and the requirements of
the South African Companies Act. The financial information does not include all the
information required for full annual financial statements and should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Group as at and for 
the year ended 31 July 2015. 

The condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in South African Rand
rounded to the nearest thousand, which is the Company's functional and Group's
presentation currency. They are prepared on the historical cost basis, except for certain
financial instruments that are recognised at fair value.

The accounting policies applied in the presentation of the condensed consolidated
financial statements are in terms of IFRS and consistent with those applied for the year
ended 31 July 2015, except for new standards and interpretations that became effective on
1 August 2015 and deemed applicable to the Group. The adoption of these standards and
interpretations had no impact on the results for the period nor has it required the
restatement of any prior year figures. The amounts disclosed are not audited or reviewed
by the auditors, except if indicated otherwise.

The Board endorses the recommendations set out in King III and supports the Code of
Corporate Practices and Conduct set out therein.

Mr B. McLoughlin C.A. (S.A.) Chief Financial Officer was responsible for supervising the
preparation of this interim report. 

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS 
There are no significant subsequent events that have an impact on the financial
information at 31 January 2016.

CORPORATE INTERESTS
Phumelela is a respondent in consolidated complaints lodged by the Gauteng Off-Course
Bookmakers' Association ("GOBA"), the KwaZulu-Natal Bookmakers' Society ("the KZNBS"),
and various individual bookmakers with the Competition Commission during 2014 and 2015
regarding, inter alia, alleged excessive pricing and abuse of a dominant position. The
complaints are being investigated by the Competition Commission and Phumelela has
submitted extensive information and documents to the Competition Commission to assist it
with its investigation.

Phumelela has lodged a counter complaint with the Competition Commission in relation to
certain bookmakers having engaged in a concerted practice by co-operating with one another
regarding the determination of a uniform price at which they will agree to receive the
Tellytrack service. The conduct of these bookmakers constitutes the fixing of a purchase
price in contravention of the Competition Act. The complaint has been referred to the
Cartels Division of the Competition Commission and is under investigation.

On 4 March 2015 the KZNBS lodged a complaint with the Independent Communications Authority
of South Africa (ICASA). The complaint consists of two parts, the first against the joint
parties of Tellytrack, Phumelela, Gold Circle and Kenilworth Racing and the second against
Telemedia (Pty) Ltd, for alleged contraventions of the Electronic Communications Act
pertaining to the provision of commercial broadcast services without the correct licenses.
The complaints are being investigated by ICASA and the parties are assisting with its 
investigation.

On 14 December 2015 Phumelela announced a landmark agreement with Arena Racing Company
("ARC") which ensures that South African horseracing will continue to be available for
display in betting shops in the UK and Ireland until at least the end of 2022. From 
1 June 2016 until the end of 2022 Phumelela has licensed ARC to supply and distribute
audio-visual coverage, including data, of all South African race meetings to all licensed
betting offices in the UK and Ireland. ARC will also continue to distribute South African
racing to online betting operators in the UK via the At The Races streaming platform 
Sports Media Stream.

On 9 March 2016 Cabinet approved the National Gambling Policy Review Document which will
form the basis of a National Gambling Amendments Act that will be open for broader public
comment upon publication. Whilst a number of Phumelela's concerns have been favourably
addressed including the bookmakers' "open bet" and the right to be compensated for the use
of the Group's intellectual property, a few pressing issues remain, the most notable being:
- Operators in the business of taking bets or wagers should be prevented from collecting
  bets on the lottery results or conducting sports pools in terms of a licence issued
  under gambling legislations across the country. Bets on lottery results and sports
  pools must only be authorised in terms of the lottery legislation; or
- Operators must be required to contribute a reasonable percentage from their gross
  gambling revenue into the National Lotteries Distribution Trust Fund ("NLDTF") as shall
  be prescribed by the Minister after consulting Council.

Implementation of the policy in respect of Tote bets on sports other than horseracing
would put the Tote operators at a competitive disadvantage to bookmakers and the National
Lottery and could potentially have a detrimental effect on Phumelela, horseracing and
betting taxes earned by each of the provinces. Phumelela offered Tote bets on sports other
than horseracing prior to the introduction of the National Lottery and has done so with
approval from the provincial gambling boards ever since. Phumelela believes that the
removal of its right to offer Tote bets on sports other than horseracing would be
unconstitutional and has engaged Government in this regard.

LITIGATION 
Phumelela is a respondent in an application:
- in the High Court of South Africa, Gauteng Division, Johannesburg instituted by,
  inter alia, the KZNBS to enforce the order made by the Gauteng Gambling Board on 
  9 October 2014 and secure access to the Tellytrack service pending the outcome of the
  proceedings before the Gauteng Gambling Board and Phumelela's review application;
- instituted by the KZNBS and GOBA in the High Court of South Africa, Gauteng Division,
  Pretoria. The applicants seek an order interdicting Phumelela from offering totalisator
  betting on sports other than horseracing. The parties have filed answering affidavits
  and the matter may be set down by the applicants.

Phumelela is a defendant in an action instituted by the KZNBS in the High Court of South
Africa, Gauteng Division, Pretoria in which the KZNBS is claiming damages from Phumelela
pursuant to the alleged infringement by Phumelela of the copyright vesting in the fixed
betting odds supplied by the KZNBS distributed by the Bookmaking Odds and Distribution
System ("BODDS"). Phumelela lodged exception to the particulars of claim lodged by the
KZNBS on, inter alia, the ground that it was vague and embarrassing. On 25 August 2015
Judge Potterill ordered that the exception be upheld with costs. The plaintiff subsequently
amended its particulars of claim. However, Phumelela again took exception thereto on the
aforementioned grounds. The plaintiff must either cure the deficiencies in its particulars
of claim or Phumelela will set the exception down for hearing.

Phumelela is the appellant in an appeal against the dismissal of its application to review
and set aside a decision made by the Gauteng Gambling Board on 9 October 2014.

The outcome of the relevant actions noted above, and under Corporate Interests, remains
uncertain and may have an impact on future earnings.

RELATED PARTIES 
There have been no significant changes in related party relationships since the previous year. 

Other than in the normal course of business, there have been no significant transactions 
during the period with equity accounted investees, joint operations and other related parties.

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
Phumelela is an AAA level two broadly-based black economic empowerment contributor.
Phumelela was ranked eighth on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange in the most recent top 100
Most Empowered Companies ranked by Empowerdex.

The Group recognises that it has a responsibility to the broader community to act in a
socially responsible manner, for the benefit of all South Africans. Contributions to
selected training, sports and community service related projects continue. The Group has
adopted appropriate BEE and employment equity, training and procurement policies.

DIRECTORS
Other than the appointment of Mr. Brian Finch as a director of the Company effective from 
8 October 2015, there were no changes to the composition of the Board during the period
under review.

PROSPECTS 
The landmark agreement with ARC is effective 1 June 2016. A positive contribution in the
final two months of this financial year is expected and will contribute meaningfully to
group earnings thereafter.

The group's investment in Afribet is not expected to contribute to profits in this financial
year, but is expected to do so in the medium and long term. 

The Group's substantial investment in growing Betting World's footprint is yielding results
with returns expected to continue.

Interbet will contribute positively for a full year in 2016 compared with nine months
in 2015. 

With a strong balance sheet, there is substantial headroom for investment in new growth
vectors.

Phumelela management are vigorously pursuing diversification and expansion opportunities
locally and abroad, as evidenced recently by the investment in Interbet and Afribet and 
the proposed investment in Supabets and are further expanding visual broadcasts and Tote 
betting in existing as well as new markets.

The group has had a successful first half and is targeting real growth in earnings per
share for the remainder of the financial year.

Any forward looking statements of forecasts contained in these results have not been
reviewed or reported on by the group's auditors.

CASH DIVIDEND TO SHAREHOLDERS
Notice is hereby given that the Board has declared an interim gross cash dividend from
income reserves of 34 cents per share (28,90 cents per share net of dividend withholding
tax at a rate of 15%) payable to shareholders recorded in the register on Friday, 
20 May 2016. The issued share capital at the declaration date is 77 101 885 ordinary
shares. Shareholders are advised that the last date to trade "cum distribution" will be
Friday 13 May 2016. As from commencement of business on Monday 16 May 2016 all trading in
Phumelela shares will be "ex dividend". Payment will be made on Monday 23 May 2016. Share
certificates may not be dematerialised or rematerialised between Monday 16 May 2016 and
Friday 20 May 2016, both days inclusive. The Company's tax reference number is 
9171/393/84/7.
