2 COMMENTARY The Company reported a loss for the year under review of R668.1 million compared to a profit of R277.8 million in the prior year. The significant contributor to this reduction in earnings was the downward revaluation of investments, the effect of which can be found in both fair value adjustments and equity accounted losses of associates and joint ventures. This was compounded by poor results from operating subsidiary Lion of Africa Insurance Company. Total assets decreased to R7.7 billion from R7.9 billion at 31 December Intrinsic Net Asset Value decreased to R4.2 billion from R4.9 billion at 31 December Brimstone Portfolio SUBSIDIARIES Sea Harvest (58.44%) Sea Harvest delivered a solid financial performance for the year with operating profit before interest increasing by 10% to R121.6 million, and EBITDA up 9% to R205 million. Revenue was 1% higher than prior year despite a 5% reduction in catch volumes. Fishing conditions were very challenging especially in the second half of the year. Prices for hake remained strong, in addition to a 10% volume growth in the export market where demand was high. Sea Harvest continued with its capital investment programme by converting an existing trawler to a freezer trawler as well as upgrading its fresh fish plant. In the last two years over R200 million has been invested in vessels and plant upgrades. In December 2015, Sea Harvest acquired a 19.9% stake in Mareterram Limited, a vertically integrated agri-business which listed on the ASX in Australia thereby securing its route to this critical market and providing a platform for future international growth. Lion of Africa Holdings (100%) Lion of Africa s poor performance continued during the year under review, reporting a loss from operations of R179 million (2014: loss of R180 million). This loss is directly attributable to the following factors: A significant decrease in premium income due to: the credit rating downgrade adversely affecting the amount of corporate business written; the discontinuation of personal lines business; and the introduction of stricter underwriting parameters which have been introduced to reduce claims going forward. Large claims and one-off charges incurred. A new management team has been put in place. In addition to the remedial action already commenced during the year, management has developed a focused strategy to return the company to profitability over the next few years. Brimstone introduced R200 million in capital during the year under review in order to maintain statutory solvency while the turnaround strategy is taking effect. The investment is carried at R40 million (2014: R20 million) in the books of Brimstone. House of Monatic (100%) Revenue increased by 17% to R214 million while net profit increased to R6.4 million. Most of this increase is attributable to the growth of the corporate and retail business. Another three retail stores were opened during the year with two more planned in R6 million of new plant and machinery was acquired during the year funded by way of the DTI capital subsidy to improve productivity and quality. Employment levels remained stable throughout the year. 2

Fair value of the Group s financial assets and financial liabilities that are measured on a fair value basis on a recurring basis.

Prior to the completion of the transaction with Old Mutual plc, Old Mutual plc controlled Brimstone Mtha UK SPV Limited and therefore, even though Brimstone owned 67% of the company, it was not permitted to consolidate the company. Old Mutual plc s control was removed on 1 May 2015 following Brimstone and its partner s fulfilment of their obligations in terms of the contract. Before the settlement of the obligations in terms of the contract, Brimstone accounted for its share of the investment as an option. On settlement, Brimstone converted its option asset into an investment in a subsidiary. No goodwill arose on conversion to an investment in a subsidiary. The non-controlling interest of 33% is measured at its proportionate share of the aquiree s identifiable net assets. 16
