|

|
|
|
|
| The current year’s tax rate was increased by the non-deductibility of the BEE transaction expense. Both comparative periods rates were reduced by the dividend received from NSN in lieu of commission income, while the rate for the full year to September 2009 was further reduced mainly by the abnormal item being taxed at the CGT rate. |

| *Reunert holds an option to sell its investment in Nokia Siemens Networks SA (Pty) Limited (NSN) to the other shareholders of NSN and the other shareholders of NSN may call on Reunert to sell its shares in NSN. During the prior year R12,5 million of compensation, as defined in the agreement with the Nokia Siemens Networks Group (NSN group), was received in respect of a country, sales to which ceased qualifying for commission. In terms of the agreement any compensation received reduces the minimum and maximum prices of the options. |
|
| The minimum price of the put option is R793,5 million (March 2009: R806,0 million, September 2009: R793,5 million) and the maximum price of the call option is R947,5 million (March 2009: R960,0 million,September 2009: R947,5 million). The first time a sale may take place in terms of the agreement is 31 December 2010. |
|
| A valuation of the option was performed at 31 March 2010, as a result of which no adjustment was necessary to the value at 30 September 2009. |
|
| ** The fair value of the investment is the present value of the amount specified in the shareholders’ agreement with NSN group, together with discounted cash flows of estimated future commissions. |

| BEE transactions |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| With effect from 1 October 2009 the group disposed of 20% of its interest in Reutech Limited to an accredited BEE partner for R100,0 million. This transaction gave rise to an expense of R34,0 million in terms of IFRS 2 – Share Based Payment.
BEE transactions where the significant risks and rewards of ownership in respect of their equity interests have not passed to the BEE partners, have not been recognised as minority interests under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).
Had the minority interest been recognised, the effect would be the following: |
|
| – Net economic interest in current period profit that is attributable to BEE partners |
|
5,5 |
|
|
2,4 |
|
10,0 |
|
| – Balance sheet interest that is economically attributable to BEE partners |

| Note 12 |
| Basis of preparation |
| These condensed group interim financial statements have been prepared in terms of IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting as well as in compliance with the Companies Act of South Africa (Act 61 of 1973) as amended and the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited. |
| The group’s accounting policies, as per the audited annual financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2009, have been consistently applied, with the exception of the adoption of the revised IAS 1 – Presentation of Financial Statements and IFRS 8 – Operating Segments (refer to the condensed segmental analysis). The effect of IAS 1 has been the inclusion of the statement of comprehensive income and the consequent reduction in the amount of disclosure in the statement of changes in equity. |
| These accounting policies comply with IFRS. |
| Note 13 |
| Unconsolidated subsidiary |
| The financial results of Cafca Limited, a subsidiary incorporated in Zimbabwe, have not been consolidated in the group results as the directors believe there is a lack of control as defined in IAS 27 – Consolidated and Separate Financial Statements and the amounts involved are not material to the group’s results. |
| Note 14 |
| Related party transactions |
| The group entered into various transactions with related parties which occurred in the ordinary course of business and under terms that are no more favourable than those arranged with independent third parties. |
| Note 15 |
| Events after balance sheet date |
| No events occurred after the balance sheet date that require additional disclosure or adjustment. |
