1.  Overview                                                                    
1.1  As previously advised to shareholders, our investments are being realised  
in an orderly manner to ensure acceptable exit values. A number of options have 
been explored with regard to individual investments, namely:                    
-  The settlement of our dispute with MGX Holdings Limited regarding our        
interest in EC Hold Limited.                                                    
-  A small investment, Supergalv (Pty) Limited, was sold during the year.       
-  The investment held in Sportal Asia Limited was realised.                    
-  Progress has been slow in regard to the realisation of other investments due 
to the depressed investment climate for small technology businesses.            
1.2  The proceeds of realisations will be utilised to reduce borrowings.        
1.3  In the light of the continued depressed technology markets, a further R33,2
million has been provided against certain investments.                          
1.4  The investments in Absolute Systems, Coresource and Intelleca Voice and    
Mobile continue to make progress.                                               
2.  Accounting                                                                  
2.1  These summarised financial statements are prepared in accordance with the  
Group"s accounting policies which comply in all material respects with South    
African Statements of Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, in particular     
Accounting Statement AC 133, and are consistent with those policies applied in  
the previous financial year.                                                    
2.2  The directors" valuations of the investments are comprehensively reviewed  
every six months in accordance with the Group"s accounting policies whereby     
investments are valued at cost for the first two reporting periods during which 
they are held (with provision being made for any permanent impairment of value) 
and thereafter they are revalued to fair value.                                 
2.3  No taxation has been provided for, as the Group has accumulated tax losses.
3.  Dividends                                                                   
    No dividend was declared or paid during the year under review.              
4.  Report of the independent auditors                                          
    The annual financial statements have been audited by the Group"s auditors,  
Fisher Hoffman PKF (Jhb) Inc. Their audit has been performed in accordance with 
the requirements of The South African Institute of Chartered Accountants and a  
copy of their audit report is available for inspection at the registered office 
of the company.                                                                 
5.  GENERAL                                                                     
    The Board continues to address the realisation of our investments. Attention
is drawn to the cautionary announcement published on 26 September 2003 and      
shareholders will be kept informed of developments.                             
By order of the board
