1    Financial and operational overview                                         
In the circular to shareholders, dated 24 August 2004, the board of directors   
made a two-year profit forecast of R2.95 million, which is for the full         
financial year ending 30 June 2006.  Forecast profits were not achieved due     
to various factors including:                                                   
*    Unexpected rainfall patterns were experienced during January up to end     
of April 2006.  An extended winter period was experienced and as a         
     result sales for the second six months of the financial year were down     
     40% compared to the first six months;                                      
*    Certain assets were impaired;                                              
*    Debt which was previously expected to be collected, has been written       
     off;                                                                       
*    The gross profit margin for the financial year decreased from 28% to       
     22%, due to price increases on imported raw materials of which the         
prices are rand dollar exchange sensitive.  The gross profit percentage    
     for the first six months did not reflect all overhead costs;               
*    Continuous increases in fuel prices and massive increases in the price     
     of plastic packaging (+/- 30 %), have made it difficult to keep sales      
prices of finished goods to the final consumer base in line;               
*    Unfavorable supermarket contracts; and                                     
*    Working capital has been financed out of new debt.                         
2    Prospects                                                                  
Milkworx Ltd acquired a national contract with a multinational organisation,    
which is expected to grow by 10% on a year to year basis.  Further              
negotiations are underway to secure further contracts.                          
The board, during the period increased the fleet and acquired an additional     
freezer room to satisfy increased demands in the summer periods.  The board     
of directors believes that this capital expenditure will enhance effective      
distribution and lead to potentially increased profits in the long term.        
Further cost cutting exercises will be implemented on an ongoing basis, which   
will decrease the losses.                                                       
The board is in the process of canceling unfavorable contracts with certain     
clients and supermarkets.                                                       
The board of directors is of the opinion that the above will lead to improved   
performance in the next financial year.
