Notes
1. Shares in issue less shares repurchased by a wholly owned subsidiary company
and share incentive company.
2. Trademarks - In accordance with IFRS 1 - First Time Adoption of
International Financial Reporting Standards, Appendix B2(b), trademarks
previously written off against reserves have been reinstated with a
resultant increase in equity. In accordance with IAS 38 - Intangible Assets,
trademarks have been assessed to have indefinite useful lives and
accordingly have not been amortised, but are subject to an annual impairment
review.
3. Property, plant and equipment - In terms of IFRS 1, the group has elected to
measure certain items of property, plant and equipment at the date of
transition to IFRS at its fair value and use that fair value as its deemed
cost at that date. This exemption was applied to land and buildings owned at
the transition date while residual values of 50% were assigned to all the
buildings. This has resulted in a lower depreciation charge on properties,
and a reversal of accumulated depreciation.
4. Deferred taxation - Deferred taxation has been adjusted to account for the
effect of the IFRS adjustments set out in notes 2 and 3.
5. Foreign currency translation - IAS 21 - The Effects of Changes in Foreign
Exchange Rates, requires the translation of foreign subsidiary companies with
a different functional currency (i.e. other than Rand) than its parent to
translate all their assets and liabilities at year end spot rates.
Foreign exchange differences arising on translation are no longer recognised
in the income statement, but are now recognised directly in a separate
component of equity (foreign currency translation reserve or "FCTR").
The group has elected the exemption available in IFRS 1, to set its FCTR
to zero at the transition date i.e. 1 July 2004.
6. Share-based payments - IFRS 2 - Share-based Payments, requires that the
fair value of equity settled share-based payments be determined at grant date
and that the expense be charged to the income statement over the vesting
period net of related taxes.
7. Deferred taxation - An adjustment was required to account for the taxation
benefit derived from the Spur management share incentive scheme.
GROUP ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND CONVERSION TO IFRS
The Spur Corporation Board of Directors has adopted International Financial
Reporting Standards (IFRS) for the year ended 30 June 2006. The financial
statements for the year ended 30 June 2006 will be the company"s first
financial statements prepared in compliance with IFRS and hence IFRS 1 - First
Time Adoption of IFRS has been applied in preparing these financial statements.
The company has adopted all applicable IFRS issued or revised up to 30 June
2006. These results have been reviewed by KPMG Inc., and their unqualified
review opinion is available for inspection at the company"s registered office.
In terms of IFRS 1, the group has restated its opening reserves and the
consolidated balance sheet as at 1 July 2004 as well as the consolidated income
statement and cash flow statement for the year ending 30 June 2005. For further
details on this see notes 2 - 7.
FINANCIAL AND OPERATIONAL REVIEW
Spur Corporation has continued to capitalise on buoyant trading conditions to
further entrench its position in the family sit-down restaurant market
in South Africa. Financial performance was boosted by improved second half
results, with the group experiencing a record number of restaurant openings and
upgrades of existing restaurants.
Restaurant turnover, which reflects in the franchise fee income received from
franchisees, increased by 17.7% and passed the R2 billion mark for the first
time. The turnover of existing restaurants, excluding new outlets opened during
the year, was 10.7% higher than the previous year.
Group revenue declined by 8.9% to R182.7 million (2005: R200.6 million) as a
result of the lower wholesale and distribution sales following the outsourcing
of the national distribution of restaurant supplies from the group"s central
kitchens to an independent distributor. The outsourcing of this function is
already proving beneficial to the group and will have a positive effect on
profitability and operating margins in the long term.
Operating profit grew by 17.2% to R77.4 million (2005: R66.1 million),
benefiting from disciplined cost control and restaurant revenue growth.
Headline earnings increased by 15.4% to R58.0 million (2005: R50.2 million).
Headline earnings per share rose by 18.9% to 65.76 cents (2005: 55.32 cents)
while diluted headline earnings per share increased by 17.7% to 65.10 cents
(2005: 55.32 cents).
The group has grown its base to 321 outlets across its three brands locally and
internationally following the addition of 34 restaurants during the financial
year. These comprise 15 Spur Steak Ranches, 9 Panarottis Pizza Pasta and 10
John Dory"s Fish & Grill outlets. Sixteen restaurants were revamped and this
has resulted in strong revenue growth in all these businesses.
A summary of the restaurant base at 30 June 2006 is as follows:
Franchise brand South Africa International Total
Spur Steak Ranches 215 24 239
Panarottis Pizza Pasta 57 8 65
John Dory"s Fish & Grill 17 - 17
Total 289 32 321
Black economic empowerment remains a priority and Spur Corporation has
facilitated funding of R30 million from the Industrial Development Corporation
to finance black franchisees.
PROSPECTS
While the low interest rate environment has contributed to strong turnover
growth in recent years, the interest rate increases in June and August,
together with further anticipated hikes in the year ahead, are likely to result
in a slowdown in discretionary consumer spending. This creates an opportunity
for the group to make further market share gains across the three franchise
brands as consumers become more price sensitive and value-for-money conscious.
The continued expansion of our restaurant footprint will bolster revenue
growth.
CAPITAL DISTRIBUTION
In accordance with a general authority given to the directors at the annual
general meeting held on 2 December 2005, shareholders are advised that the
board of directors of the company has declared a capital distribution of R22.0
million payable to the company"s shareholders, in lieu of dividends, to be
written off against the share premium account, which amount equates to 25 cents
per ordinary share ("the distribution").
The distribution will be paid on Monday, 9 October 2006, to those shareholders
of the company who are recorded in the company"s register on Friday, 6 October
2006 ("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, 29 September 2006.
The shares will commence trading ex the distribution on Monday, 2 October 2006.
Share certificates may not be dematerialised or rematerialised between Monday,
2 October and Friday, 6 October 2006 both days inclusive.
