 million (R 10,829 million before IFRS

The company generated gross profits of R                                       
 41, 596 million at margins of 36, 8% and                                       
 operating margins in line with forecasts of                                    
 12,2 %. The period was characterized by                                        
below average petrochemical company spend                                      
 resulting in turnover being 15% below                                          
 budget. However, due to the variability of                                     
 our infrastructural overhead, increasingly                                     
vigilant cost containment and a superior                                       
 performance from our engineering unit, we                                      
 managed to preserve margins.                                                   
 FINANCIAL REVIEW                                                               
With effect 1 March 2006, the Group                                            
 reversed into the Elexir Technology                                            
 Holdings Limited shell and raised R 43, 95                                     
 million to fund acquisitions and working                                       
capital. The prior year comparatives                                           
 therefore serve no purpose and have been                                       
 inserted for illustrative purposes only.                                       
 During the course of the period, the                                           
company repurchased 4,657 million shares                                       
 equivalent to 2,37% of the total issued                                        
 share capital at an average price of 62                                        
 cents per share. These shares are currently                                    
being held as treasury shares. The Board"s                                     
 view is that the company"s share price is                                      
 intrinsically undervalued and it will                                          
 continue to repurchase shares in the open                                      
market at undervalued share price levels.                                      
 In addition, the Board has identified many                                     
 shareholders holding less than 100 shares                                      
 due to the reverse listing. In order to                                        
strengthen the company"s equity base and                                       
 reduce the price to volume volatility in                                       
 the share, the company will shortly embark                                     
 on an odd lot offer.                                                           
On an operational level, the company has                                       
 performed in line with budgetary                                               
 expectations. Historically, the company"s                                      
 trading cycles have been cyclical with an                                      
emphasis on increased profitability in the                                     
 second part of the year.                                                       
 INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS                                    
 ("IFRS") ADJUSTMENTS                                                           
Due to the recent acquisitions made by the                                     
 company, it"s after tax earnings have been                                     
 materially impacted by the amortization of                                     
 specific intangibles and the unwinding of                                      
discounts arising on deferred purchase                                         
 considerations still due to vendors. It is                                     
 estimated that the impact of these                                             
 adjustments will amount to approximately R                                     
4 million on an after tax basis for the                                        
 year ended 28 February 2007. The impact of                                     
 these adjustments were not reflected in our                                    
 income projections disclosed in our Revised                                    
Listing Particulars document issued on 10                                      
 March 2006.                                                                    
 PROSPECTS                                                                      
 The company"s prospects for the remainder                                      
of the year look positive and it is                                            
 confident in closing several major                                             
 contracts in the second half of the                                            
 financial year which should enable the                                         
group to maintain current profitability                                        
 levels.                                                                        
 The company remains confident of achieving                                     
 its forecast HEPS of 11,66 cents per share                                     
for the year to 28 February 2007, however,                                     
 as indicated above this would be before the                                    
 IFRS adjustments relating to the                                               
 amortisation of specific intangibles and                                       
deemed interest on the deferred purchase                                       
 considerations. The HEPS for the year to 28                                    
 February 2007 after these IFRS adjustments                                     
 would therefore be 9.82 cents per share.
