2. Share capital
During the year under review 347 680 redeemable cumulative
participating preference shares were converted into ordinary shares on the
basis of 1 ordinary share for 1 preference share. This conversion was
approved by shareholders at the annual general meeting held on 24 October
2001.
At the annual general meeting held on 24 October 2001, shareholders
approved the cash issue of 380 000 shares at a price of R1,70 per share.
Due to unforeseen circumstances the issue was not implemented during the
year under review. It remains the intention of the directors to increase
the issued share capital by way of a cash issue. Shareholders will be
provided with the appropriate information on publication of the annual
financial statements.
3. Loan payable
In anticipation of the increase in share capital referred to above,
Messina Investments Ltd, a substantial shareholder advanced an amount of
R560 978 to the company to enable it to increase its portfolio of listed
investments. The loan is unsecured and interest free. No terms of
repayment have been fixed but it is anticipated that the funds will be
repaid within one year.
4. Deferred tax
With the introduction of Capital Gains Tax on 1 October 2002, the
directors have provided for deferred tax on the capital profit earned on its
listed investments in the period ended 31 March 2002.
5. Income statement
The income before taxation is significantly lower than in the prior
year due to a significantly lower revaluation surplus. In this regard
shareholders` attention is drawn to note 7 below.
6. Dividend
The directors do not recommend the payment of a dividend.
7. The directors` valuation of the unlisted investment in Willoughby`s
Consolidated Plc has not been revised. The directors are continuing to
closely monitor the operations of that company both in Zimbabwe and in the
United Kingdom where the company owns substantial property interests.
8. The financial statements have been prepared in terms of Generally
Accepted Accounting Practice. The accounting policies applied are
consistent with those applied in the comparative period.
9. Audit review
These preliminary financial statements have been reviewed by the
company`s auditors, Light and Livingstone (Chartered Accountants (S.A.)),
who have issued an unqualified report thereon. Their report is available
for inspection at the registered office of the company.
