NOTES
1. The loss on disposal of property, plant and equipment relates to the
assets of an associate company that were scrapped as part of the relocation
of an outlet owned by the associate to new trading premises.
2. Foreign exchange differences arising on the translation of foreign
entities from their functional currencies to the group`s reporting currency
were reallocated in the condensed cash flow statement for the year ended 30
June 2008 to accord with the allocation basis applied to such foreign
exchange differences in the current year. The directors have determined that
this allocation basis results in a more accurate reflection of true cash flow
movements.
3. Shares in issue less shares repurchased by a wholly owned subsidiary
company and the share incentive special purpose entity.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
KPMG Inc., the group`s independent auditor has reviewed the provisional
financial statements contained in this provisional report, and has expressed
an unmodified conclusion on the provisional financial statements. The review
report is available for inspection at the company`s registered office. These
provisional financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2009 have been
prepared in accordance with accounting policies that comply with
International
Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") and IAS 34 - Interim Financial
Reporting, and have been consistently applied with those adopted for the year
ended 30 June 2008, excluding items mentioned in note 2.
FINANCIAL AND OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE
Spur Corporation has again demonstrated the strength of its brands as the
group posted a 10.5% growth in revenue to R326.8 million (2008: R295.8
million) in the most difficult trading conditions experienced in many years.
The restaurant industry continued to face pressure from reduced consumer
spending and high food price inflation. While lower disposable income levels
resulted in reduced frequency of visits to restaurants, the brands`
value-for-money offering sustained customer loyalty and ensured continuous
revenue growth during the year under review. This is reflected in the 8.6%
growth in restaurant turnover in the Spur Steak Ranches brand. Panarottis
Pizza Pasta turnover grew by 4.4% and John Dory`s Fish & Grill by 18.2%.
International restaurant turnover for existing business increased by 3.1%,
with company-owned restaurants (retail outlets) increasing turnover by 11.5%.
Franchise fee income in Spur increased by 8.7% to R112.1 million, Panarottis
by 3.8% to R9.9 million and John Dory`s by 18.1% to R6.6 million.
International franchise fee income increased by 2.4% to R13.4 million.
Operating profit for the period increased by 14.2% to R97.7 million (2008:
R85.5 million). Worldwide recessionary trading conditions led to the group
impairing the assets and goodwill of two of its retail outlets in Australia,
where the impact of the recession in our industry has been more pronounced.
The impact on operating profit is R10.0 million. Headline earnings increased
10.5% to R74.5 million (2008: R67.4 million), with diluted headline earnings
per share growing 12.3% to 83.12 cents (2008: 73.99 cents).
RESTAURANT EXPANSION
Ten new Spurs and one John Dory`s restaurant were opened in South Africa
during the year, while 16 Spur, nine Panarottis and three John Dory`s
restaurants were refurbished or relocated to improved trading locations.
Internationally, new Spur restaurants were opened in Derby in the United
Kingdom and Nairobi, Kenya.
At year end the group had 347 restaurants across its three brands.
Spur has developed a signature store concept for high profile locations, with
the first outlet in this format being the revamped restaurant in the V&A
Waterfront in Cape Town, and new outlets in Bryanston and the Bloemfontein
Waterfront. A further signature store will be opened at the Cape Town
International Airport in late 2009. Further enhancements to the
Panarottis`decor and design are being added, while the roll-out of sushi
belts and decor upgrades in John Dory`s is proving successful.
A summary of the group`s restaurant base at 30 June 2009 is as follows:
Franchise brand South Africa International Total
Spur Steak Ranches 240 29 269
Panarottis Pizza Pasta 50 6 56
John Dory`s Fish & Grill 22 - 22
Total 312 35 347
PROSPECTS
The group plans to open at least 18 new restaurants in the year ahead. This
includes 15 franchised restaurants in South Africa, a new Spur retail outlets
in Aberdeen(Scotland), and two franchised outlets in Perth (Australia) and
Dubai (United Arab Emirates). Opportunities for new restaurants are being
evaluated in several locations in Africa and the United Kingdom to further
expand the group`s footprint.
Substantial increases in electricity costs and higher wage demands will place
pressure on franchisee profitability. Strategies aimed at enhancing
franchisee success and entrenching our brands` positions in the market
include the ongoing improvement in procurement and distribution efficiencies,
customer focused menu engineering, enhancing operational standards and
training, and persuasive marketing.
The recessionary trading conditions are expected to remain a challenge in the
year ahead. However, management believes the group is well placed to continue
to withstand the impact of the current economic climate.
