Both listed and unlisted investments are designated at fair value through profit or loss ("FVTPL"). During the year, investment properties were revalued by external independent valuers. Revaluations are performed annually and independent valuers are used in alternate years. 2. Fair value adjustments and impairments Reviewed 31 Dec 2010

3. Business acquisitions On 22 June 2010, Vunani increased its holding in Peregrine iQ (Proprietary) Limited (subsequently renamed Vunani Fund Managers) from 11% to 51% for R20.6m. This purchase price was settled partly through the issue of 137 million Vunani Limited shares at a value of 10c each, with the balance payable in cash. The fair value of Vunani’s previous 11% investment in Peregrine iQ (Proprietary) Limited of R12.3m was added to the cost of the investment in the subsidiary at acquisition date, resulting in the total cost of Vunani’s 51% investment in the subsidiary being R32.9m. The acquisition resulted in goodwill of R27.4m, intangible assets of R2.9m and related deferred taxation of R0.8m. R5.2m of the acquisition date net asset value of Peregrine iQ (Proprietary) Limited was allocated to the non-controlling interests. Since acquisition, an after tax loss of R0.6m has been included in Vunani’s profit or loss. R0.3m of this loss is attributable to noncontrolling shareholders’ interests. If the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of the year, after tax loss of R0.5 would have been included in Vunani’s profit or loss. R0.3m of this loss would be attributable to non-controlling shareholders’ interests. Peregrine iQ (Proprietary) Limited’s name was subsequently changed to Vunani Fund Managers (Proprietary) Limited (“VFM”). On 1 December 2010, Vunani acquired 100% of the shares in Kagiso Securities Limited (“KSL”) at nominal value. The purchase price was settled in cash. The acquisition resulted in a bargain purchase of R11.1 million, which has been included in profit or loss. No post acquisition profits or losses have been recognised in Vunani’s results. If the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of the year, after tax loss of R7.7m would have been included in Vunani’s profit or loss.

Our asset management business was enhanced through the acquisition of the Peregrine iQ business (renamed Vunani Fund Managers) and Vunani now has management and operating control of its asset management businesses, with a strong institutional and private wealth product and service offering. Revenue in 2010 was R 21 million, up R 8,8 million on 2009. The division incurred an attributable loss of R 16,1 million after adjusting for R 30,7 million impairments on our minority interests in Edge Holding Company (Proprietary) Limited and Vunani Private Equity Partners (Proprietary) Limited. Following the conclusion of negotiations to dispose of Vunani’s interest in these entities, the investments in these companies have been disclosed as “assets held for sale” in the balance sheet. The upshot is that Vunani will no longer have any debt associated with these investments. The investment banking and corporate advisory businesses did very well in tough market conditions, contributing over R20 million to the revenue line, up R13,4 million on the previous year; the bulk of which was earned in the second half of 2010. But for R20 million of goodwill impairments associated with the rationalisation of the corporate finance and treasury operations, and bad debts written off, the business would have been profitable. The platform is sound and the team has been consistently ranked in the top 10 of the deal makers rating for sponsor activities and was ranked the 6th most active M&A Advisor in the market in 2010. The securities broking business had a relatively good trading year despite a slow period during the months in which the 2010 FIFA Soccer World Cup was hosted. There was also a fair amount of volatility as the equity markets grappled with sovereign debt challenges in Greece and other European Union countries. Management is pleased that in spite of these challenges the securities broking division generated total income of R 38,7 million (2009: R 29 million) and attributable profit of R 4 million (2009: R 10,5 million loss). The highlight for the securities division was the acquisition of Kagiso Securities which bolstered our equity research offering and equity, bonds and money market dealing capability and enabled Vunani to create R 11,1 million from arbitrage in the deal. The properties business was the biggest contributor to the group, contributing revenues of R 125,4 million (2009: R 112,1 million) and attributable profits of R 86,6 million, (2009: R 27,7 million loss). The business is spilt into development and property investments divisions. The developments business was relatively quiet with only two significant projects taking place, undertaken in partnership with other developers, both of which are at an advanced stage. Development activities contributed R 15,6 million (2009: R 3,4 million) of the attributable profit whilst property investments delivered revenue of R 121,1 million and R 71,1 million (2009: R 30,6 million loss) of the profits, net of finance costs of R 98,3 million (2009: R 84,2 million). In addition to the profits there was a fair value adjustment of R 116,6 million associated with the investment properties increasing the fair value of the investment property portfolio to R 918,8 million as at 31 December 2010. Debt associated with the investment portfolio is R 641,2 million. Cash flows from the portfolio are more than adequate to service the debt. The investments business comprises investments in both publicly listed and unlisted companies. These investments have historically been highly geared; the expectation being that gearing will be serviced from dividends and redeemed from capital profits. This has not gone according to plan and management have been reviewing existing investments; taking advantage to dispose of those investments which are not meeting the designated criteria and to redeem associated debt in the process. This will continue in the foreseeable future whilst management looks to restructure the investment portfolio. Management believes the bulk of the investment write-down has taken place with R 23,9 million of the fair value write-down in 2010 being attributable to the investment portfolio. Investment income associated with the portfolio amounted to R 11,9 million (2009: R11,7 million) whilst attributable finance costs were R 64,4 million (2009: R 107,4 million). The restructuring of the group debt necessitated some renegotiation of funding arrangements with its major bankers. The principal arrangement was the provision of secured guarantees to these funders in return for the restructuring of the debt. In terms of IAS 39 it is a requirement that these guarantees be fair valued and as a result a fair value charge of R 65 million was made to the income statement to reflect the fair valuing of these guarantees, with the corresponding amount being reflected in liabilities. These charges will reverse as the assets are disposed of and the debt is repaid. The group generated R 1,5 million of positive cash flow during the year (2009: R 33,8 million negative).
Management’s focus is on building the core businesses whilst reducing the legacy interest burden on the balance sheet. The current year’s results reflect management’s determination to achieve (228) this goal. In order to accomplish this, certain facilities with lenders will need to be renegotiated 32 before their October 2011 moratorium date.

- Profit on disposal
The board is proud to report that Vunani’s commitment has paid off with revenue increasing by R 70,78 million on the corresponding figure in 2009; operating profits of R66,3 million compared to R 1,7 million last year and income from investments and associate companies of R 66,8 million (2009: R 38 million). Notwithstanding the R 35 million reduction in finance costs compared to 2009, these costs remain uncomfortably high. Accordingly, management has engaged in further restructuring of the balance sheet and operations which has resulted in the disposal of investments such as Vunani’s interest in JHI, and the rationalisation of some operating divisions. Whilst the restructuring has resulted in impairments of goodwill and fair value adjustments of R 29,7 million in the 2010 financial year, management believes this was necessary to eliminate loss making activities and non-performing investments and will benefit the group going forward. Vunani believes that the existing business platform is now positioned correctly to start fulfilling its ambitions.

FINANCIAL RESULTS Revenue increased by 57% to R 195.8 million (2009: R 125 million), on the back of increased asset management fees and fee income from new advisory mandates. Despite operating expenses having increased by 12% compared to 2009, operating businesses succeeded in generating an operating profit of R 66.4 million (2009: R 1.8 million). This increase reflects management’s focus on the operational businesses within the group and the drive to increase profitability. At R12.7 million (2009: R 16.8 million), investment income was 24% lower than the comparable 2009 figure, reflecting lower dividend income, partly as a result of disposals. However this was more than compensated by increased performance by associate companies. Income from associates of R54.1 million (2009: R21.1 million) was 157% higher than the corresponding period in 2009.

VUNΛNI RESULTS 2010
REVIEWED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2010 FINANCIAL RESULTS (continued)
CORPORATE INFORMATION
The fair value adjustments and impairment charge of R 29,7 million (2009: income of R1.1 million) arose out of the impairment of goodwill and investments held for sale totalling R57.4 million and other favourable fair value adjustments totalling R27.8 million. The decision to dispose of the group’s investment in Edge Holdings (Proprietary) Limited and Vunani Private Equity Partners (Proprietary) Limited resulted in an impairment of the carrying value of the investments. The remaining goodwill relating to the acquisition of the Vunani Corporate Finance and Vunani Treasury Resources businesses in 2008 was also impaired. Other favourble fair value adjustments totalling R27,8 million was the net result of favourable fair value adjustments relating to property investments and negative fair value adjustments relating to investment holdings and the related guarantees provided to lenders.
EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS
A significant area of benefit has been in the reduction of net finance costs, where the repayment of debt and lower interest rates have reduced finance charges from R193,4 million to R158,3 million, an 18% reduction. Changes in IAS 12 Income Taxes relating to the rate at which deferred taxation assets on the revaluation of buildings forming part of investment properties is recognised, resulted in a retrospective restatement of prior years amounting to a favourable cumulative restatement of R18,5 million.
