African Statements of Generally Accepted Accounting Practice and the accounting

FINANCIAL AND OPERATING REVIEW
During the past financial year we again experienced buoyant trading conditions.
While the first six months, which includes the festive season, is traditionally
our stronger trading period, we are particularly pleased with our performance
in the latter half of the year under review.
Spur prides itself on being a South African restaurant chain, which has becomean
icon for all South Africans. The growth of the country`s middle class, with
its increased spending power, has been a positive development for our economy,
and the group`s value-based offering is finding increasing support from this
rapidly growing sector of the consumer market.
Turnover for the year advanced by 11% to R200.6 million (2004: R181.0 million).
This includes the impact of the decreased wholesale and distribution sales that
resulted from the decision taken during the year to outsource the national
distribution of our central kitchen products. The outsourcing of this function
will ensure consistency and quality of delivery to our outlets nationally.
It is significant to note that our core franchise royalty income advanced by
19%. As we benchmark our performance on the growth in turnover of our existing
stores, it is encouraging that same store turnover was 13% ahead of last year,
which is substantially higher than menu inflation of 4.5%.
Operating profit, boosted by unrealised foreign exchange gains of R2.5 million,
increased by 37% to R68.5 million. Headline earnings of R51.1 million (2004:
R37.2 million) increased by 37%, while headline earnings per share of 56.3
cents were 42% ahead of 2004 (2004: 39.7 cents), in line with the trading
statement issued on 24 August 2005.
The group has grown its store base to 287 across its three brands locally and
internationally:
Franchise brand South Africa International Total
Spur Steak Ranches 200 24 224
Panarottis Pizza Pasta 48 8 56
John Dory`s Fish & Grill 7 - 7
Total 255 32 287
PROSPECTS
Indications are that the Consumer Price Index and interest rates are likely to
remain steady for the year ahead. These factors are expected to provide a
favourable trading environment for the year ahead and the board and management
are confident of continued solid growth.
CAPITAL DISTRIBUTION
In accordance with a general authority given to the directors at the annual
general meeting held on 25 November 2004, shareholders are advised that the
board of directors of the company has declared a capital distribution of R17,6
million payable to the company`s shareholders in lieu of dividends, to be
written off against the share premium account, which equates to 20 cents per
ordinary share (`the distribution`)
The distribution will be paid on Monday, 10 October 2005, to those shareholders
of the company who are recorded in the company`s register on Friday, 7 October
2005 (`the record date`).
The last day to trade (cum the distribution) in the company`s shares for
purposes of entitlement to the distribution, will be Friday, 30 September 2005.
The shares will commence trading ex the distribution on Monday, 3 October 2005.
Share certificates may not be dematerialised or rematerialised between Monday,
3 October 2005 and Friday, 7 October 2005, both days inclusive.
