growth of the last few years.

secured financing activities having exceeded                                    
expectations, in the past year.  This is                                        
illustrated in graphs 1 and 3.

The African Dawn Group has realised earnings in

ended 28 February 2007.                                                         
During the financial year the group has                                         
broadened its capital base by raising R44,3                                     
million through share issues for cash.                                          
An increase in borrowings will enable the group
