Basis of preparation                                                            
With effect from 31 July 2004 (`the transition date"), the Group has adopted    
the International Financial Reporting Standards (`IFRS") making use of certain  
exemptions provided for under IFRS 1 (First time adoption of IFRS). These       
interim results are prepared in accordance with IAS 34 (Interim Financial       
Reporting) and the South African Companies Act, 1973.                           
The Group"s auditors, IAPA Johannesburg, Chartered Accountants (SA), have       
reviewed the financial information for the period to 31 January 2006.           
Effect of the first time adoption of IFRS                                       
In accordance with the first time adoption of IFRS (per IFRS 1), the Group has  
prepared an opening balance sheet at 31 July 2004 (`the transition date balance 
sheet"). Changes to the transition date balance sheet are recorded through the  
statement of changes in ordinary shareholders" interest.                        
As reported last year, the effect of implementing IAS 17 (Leases) was not       
considered material and no adjustment was made. IAS 17 is now applied to all    
new leases entered into after 31 July 2005 and the effect of this application   
is shown separately in the results.                                             
IAS 16 (Property plant and equipment) requires that the useful life and         
residual values of all assets be reassessed at each balance sheet date. Under   
SA GAAP the useful life and residual value of an asset were determined on       
recognition of the asset and depreciated accordingly.                           
IAS 38 (Intangible assets) requires that the useful life of intangible assets   
be reassessed at each balance sheet date. Under SA GAAP the useful life of an   
asset were determined on recognition of the intangible asset and amortised      
accordingly.                                                                    
IFRS 2 (Share-based payments) requires that a company expense the cost of share 
options granted to employees.                                                   
The effect of applying the above statements has been accounted for, where       
appropriate, as follows:                                                        
# via the statement of changes in ordinary shareholders" interest               
# by restating the prior year comparatives and opening retained earnings        
# by correctly reporting them in this year"s Income statement                   
The following exemptions have been applied in preparing the results:            
Share-based payments                                                            
The Group has elected not to apply the provisions of IFRS 2 to share-based      
awards granted either on or before 7 November 2002 or that had not vested by 1  
January 2005 (the effective date of IFRS 2).                                    
Cumulative foreign currency translation differences                             
The Group has elected to reset the cumulative foreign currency translation      
differences on foreign operations to zero at the transition date. From that     
date on, all foreign currency translation differences on foreign operation will 
be recognised directly to equity.                                               
Business combinations                                                           
The Group has elected not to apply the requirements of IFRS 3 (Business         
Combinations) retrospectively to acquisitions prior to the transition date. As  
a result, the goodwill, net of amortisation, at the transition date becomes the 
carrying value of that goodwill thereafter.                                     
Financial Results                                                               
The board is satisfied with the performance for the period under review. Revenue
growth has been achieved substantially from organic growth as there were no     
acquisitions in the last 18 months. The operating margin improvement is         
attributable to the continued focus on the operations efficiency, the           
centralising of our facilities and the implementation of a shared services      
model. During the year we have invested in new infrastructure, facilities and   
technology, as well as in new business initiatives that are yet to reach        
maturity.                                                                       
Future Plans                                                                    
EOH has achieved critical mass and is considered a leader in the consulting,    
technology and outsourcing space. EOH"s position as a major player in this arena
has been further enhanced with business being won across all spheres of         
operations. The wide range of solutions offered to various industries in both   
the public and private sector, in conjunction with a well proven business model,
strong management and financial strength, bode well for its future growth.      
EOH sees the strong market conditions, specifically those in the technology     
field, continuing with EOH well positioned to capitalize on these. EOH"s growth 
strategy remains focused on organic growth, supplemented by strategic           
acquisitions.                                                                   
Transformation                                                                  
The Mthombo Trust is now fully operational. With the implementation of the PDI  
employee ownership trust, EOH now has 25.1% black ownership. 38% of EOH         
employees are PDI"s, so is 40% of our board.                                    
In addition to this, EOH is making progress in our 7-point strategy of equity   
ownership, management and control, employment equity, skills development,       
preferential procurement, enterprise development and corporate social           
investment.                                                                     
We see transformation as an ongoing process to which all our people are         
committed to and involved in.                                                   
Dividends                                                                       
It is the Group"s practice to declare dividends at the end of the financial     
year. A dividend of 11.5 cents per share was paid to shareholders recorded in   
the books of EOH at the close of business on Friday, 28 October 2005.
