COMMENTS                                                                        
The operational problems and poor financial structures within the original      
group of companies listed as Y3K, have proved to be more problematic and        
intractable than anticipated at the time of the change to present               
management. The ongoing and substantial costs of restructuring and disposals    
are reflected in the net loss for the year of R2,2 million. The above           
results have been prepared in compliance with South African Statements of       
Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. The results have been reviewed by       
the company`s auditors, Grant Thornton Kessel Feinstein and a copy of the       
report is available for inspection at the company`s registered office.          
Current management continues to be fully committed to achieving a turnaround    
despite the difficulties within both the company and the general trading        
environment. Prospects for a return to stable and sustainable profitability     
are becoming evident at last, with the group trading profitably since April     
2002. The improvement in the group`s trading performance has helped to          
restore the confidence of its clients, principals and staff.                    
The cost of the disposal of Lanlink to its management during the year is        
reflected as an exceptional item. Micro-Angelo, a point-of-sale systems         
developer, was reacquired during the year, as the original purchasers were      
unable to meet their commitments. This is reflected as an intangible asset      
in the balance sheet. Sales of this Windows-based product are expected to       
show satisfactory returns.                                                      
In addition to its existing range of security products and services, Y3K was    
recently awarded the distribution rights for Microdata, Mimesweeper and the     
E-Eye product ranges.                                                           
The group is dependent on its bankers and suppliers to provide ongoing          
finance for its business activities for the foreseeable future. If continued    
finance is not made available, then the group may not be sustainable as a       
going concern for the foreseeable future. In this case, the realisable          
values of the assets may be less than the values reflected in the balance       
sheet.                                                                          
Y3K is now in a position to provide top quality digital information security    
products and services to meet the growing demand in this sector. With its       
extended product range and focused new management, Y3K is expected to           
achieve a trading profit for the year. Once the stability of the group`s        
earnings prospects is established, strategies will be implemented to grow       
the company at above average rates, on the basis of a conservative and well-    
focused expansion plan.
