COMMENTS
INTRODUCTION
The directors of OneLogix present the unaudited interim results for the six-
month period ended 30 November 2003 ("the interim period"). The unaudited
interim results have been prepared in accordance with South African Statements
of Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. The accounting policies used in the
preparation of these results are consistent with those used in the audited
annual financial statements for the year ended 31 May 2003.
In line with the trading statement issued on 27 November 2003 the interim
results have exceeded expectations, with a substantial increase in earnings and
headline earnings per share compared with the previous corresponding interim
period ("the previous interim period").
The balance sheet has been significantly improved by the R10,0 million proceeds
from the rights issue successfully completed on 26 May 2003, together with the
cash generated by the group"s businesses.
The disposal of GoLogix Distribution and the closure of GoLogix Courier, as
previously announced, have been substantially finalised. Commitments and
undertakings on behalf of the group to these divisions have been further reduced
during the interim period to R0,4 million from the original exposure of
approximately R22,0 million.
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Vehicle Delivery Services ("VDS"), GoLogix Media Express and PostNet continue to
dominate their respective market niches of cross-border auto logistics, express
distribution of print material and business service solutions. VDS continued to
perform above expectations and secured an extended foothold in the local market.
GoLogix Media Express continues to offer efficient service in a highly cost-
conscious environment while PostNet completed a rigorous review of its business
proposition and a subsequent restructuring in order to sustain its market
dominance going forward.
FINANCIAL RESULTS
The group"s financial results for the interim period reflect revenue of
R38,0 million, 25% up on the previous interim period. EBITDA of R10,2 million
also increased by 25% and operating income rose by 27% to R8,4 million.
Strong trading and continued focus on working capital management resulted in
cash generated from operations of R13,5 million. The group reduced its interest-
bearing debt and vendor obligations by R6,6 million, and ended the year with
R9,5 million cash on hand. This, together with a reduction in lending rates, has
reduced net interest paid by R1,8 million compared with the previous interim
period.
The R0,4 million after-tax profit from discontinuing operations relates mainly
to commissions received from the sale of the GoLogix Courier customer-base and
the recouping of certain GoLogix Courier bad debts previously provided for on
the closure of the division.
PROSPECTS
While a greater portion of revenue is traditionally realised in the first half
of the financial year, prospects for an improvement of the group"s annual
financial results are good. Management will maintain focus on expanding the
efficiencies and growth opportunities of the group"s businesses.
PEOPLE
OneLogix thanks its management, employees, PostNet franchisees and business
partners. The group also thanks its customers, business advisors and
shareholders for their ongoing support.
DIVIDEND
In line with group policy no dividend has been declared for the interim period.
FURTHER CAUTIONARY
Shareholders are referred to the cautionary announcement of 26 November 2003 and
are advised to continue to exercise caution in their dealings in OneLogix
shares. The group expects to make a further announcement in this regard in the
next 14 days.
By order of the Board.
