AUDITED RESULTS for 12 months TO 30 JUNE 2002
REVIEW
The past 18 months has been a difficult period for everyone associated with
Genbel South Africa. It has been a period of intense retrospection and a time
for tough decision-making.
As shareholders, you know that the directors have devoted considerable energy
and time examining various restructuring alternatives. The objective of the
exercise was to narrow the persistent discount at which Genbel has traded to its
net asset value over the past few years as well as to find an acceptable
solution to the "double taxation" on investment trusts, a problem that arose
with the introduction of Capital Gains Tax ("CGT") in 2001.
A solution has been found in the cash offer by way of a scheme of arrangement
that has been secured from Genbel Securities Limited ("Gensec") which proposal
is detailed in the circular to shareholders. The High Court of South Africa has
granted Genbel leave to convene a meeting of its shareholders to consider the
scheme and we hope that shareholders will make an effort to attend the meeting.
The scheme meeting is to take place on 13August 2002.
GENBEL'S PERFORMANCE
Genbel's net asset value ("NAV") declined by 20.5% to 1624 cents per share for
the 12 months under review, while its historical benchmark, the JSE Financial
and Industrial Index ("FINDI") declined by 9.0% for almost the same period.
The underperformance of Genbel's NAV relative to the FINDI can largely be
ascribed to Genbel's continued exposure to the
Telecommunication-Media-Technology ("TMT"), retail and financial sectors. The
Genbel share price of 1510 cents on 30 June 2002 reflected a 7% discount to net
asset value. Genbel's net asset value reached the highest value for the period
of 2 054 cents a share on 2July 2001 and a lowest value of 1572cents on 28March
2002. The Genbel share price fluctuated between a high of 1780 cents a share and
a low of 1340cents per share.
DIVIDEND
No dividend has been declared for the period.
Financial effects of the scheme
The table reflects the financial effects of the scheme on Genbel shareholders as
at 16 July 2002. It has been based on a formula using the market value of
Genbel, the Genbel NAV and the pro forma cash consideration.
Genbel NAV (cents per share) 1 577
Market value (cents per share) 1 410
Discount to Genbel NAV (%) (10.6)
Pro forma cash consideration (cents per share) 1 527
Discount to Genbel NAV (%) (3.2)
Premium to market value (%) 8.3
The financial effects as reflected above have been prepared for illustrative
purposes only. The final cash consideration will be calculated in terms of the
formula contained in the scheme circular and shareholders will be informed of
the final cash consideration in terms of the formula by means of an announcement
in the press.
