EBITDA has been calculated excluding exceptional charges relating to fair value
adjustments and impairments for 2014 and the comparatives.

accounted for using the equity method following adoption of IFRS 11 as
discussed under note 3.

BASIS OF PREPARATION
The Groups financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards, (IFRS)
and the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee, (IFRIC) applicable to companies reporting under IFRS, the
Zimbabwe Companies Act (Chapter 24:03) and the relevant Statutory Instruments (SI) SI 33/99 and SI 62/96 and the Zimbabwe
Stock Exchange Listing Rules. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by
the revaluation of biological assets, property and equipment and non-current assets held for sale.
AUDIT OPINION
3.
The independent auditor has expressed an unqualified opinion on these financial statements, and it is available for inspection at the
Company Secretarys office.
African Sun Limited adopted IFRS 11, Joint arrangements on 1 October 2013. IFRS 11, Joint Arrangements focuses on the rights and
obligations of the parties to the arrangement rather than its legal form. There are two types of joint arrangements: joint operations
and joint ventures. Joint operations arise where the investors have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities of an
arrangement. A joint operator accounts for its share of the assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Joint ventures arise where the
investors have rights to the net assets of the arrangement; joint ventures are accounted for under the equity method. Proportional
consolidation of joint ventures is no longer permitted.

In terms of IAS 28 (revised), Investment in Associates, entities with significant influence over an investee are required to account for
their investments in an associate using the equity method. Before the adoption of IFRS 11, Joint Arrangements, the Group used to
account for WASHL using the proportional consolidation method. The new standard has been applied retrospectively, to show the
impact of accounting for WASHL using the equity method in terms of IAS 28 (revised), Investment in Associates.

For the purposes of the statement of cashflows, finance costs paid were
computed as follows;
The cash security on long-term loan of US$369 453 (2013: US$552 668) has been deducted from cash and bank balances to
determine cash and cash equivalents as the use of the cash is restrictive in nature and is not available within a 90 day period. The
cash is held in an offshore account as security for a foreign loan which has an outstanding balance of US$4.31 million. The
amount equates to 8% of the outstanding loan. Cash from this restricted account is available only to the extent that the balance is
more than 8% of the loan outstanding.
African Sun Limited owns 16.54% (2013: 28.54%) of the shares in Dawn
Properties Limited. The investment was classified as non-current assets held for
sale following the approval to dispose by the shareholders on 21 March 2014.
Lease rentals relate to the leases of 8 hotels rented from Dawn. All leases with
Dawn are at arms length.

The first half of our financial year is relatively slower than the second half. This has been the trend for the past 4 years, with the first
half contributing between 44% and 48% of the full year revenue. The second half dominates because it is the beginning of our
international markets peak season as well as an increase in corporate and conferencing business.

The Groups EBITDA grew positively by 70% in the period under review, consolidating a discernible growth trend averaging 5% per
annum since 2012. This attribute of resilience defied a generally receding operating environment. The EBITDA growth trend has
demonstrated the Groups inherent value creation capacity. The Group repaid loans amounting to US$6.8 million resulting in a 46%
decrease in the the net current liabilities position to US$5.75 million down from US$10.72 million reported last year. Looking ahead,
the domestic market is envisaged to remain depressed, exerting further pressure on rates and margins, but we anticipate that this
will be ameliorated by:
a forecasted growth in foreign arrivals;
growth in the contribution of the recently opened hotel in Ghana;
further efforts to reduce costs of sales and operating costs; and
further debt restructuring and reduction.
Based on the aforementioned, the Directors have assessed the ability of the Group to continue operating as a going concern and are
of the view that the preparation of these financial statements on a going concern basis is appropriate. The appropriateness of the
going concern basis is premised on:
the steady improvement in operating performance recorded over the last three years; a trend that is expected to
continue in the future; and
the consummation of the recapitalisation and debt reduction initiatives, anticipated by the end of the next financial
year.
The key recapitalisation and debt reduction initiatives being pursued are outlined below:
(i) disposal of 16.54% Linked Units in Dawn Properties: the disposal is expected to raise US$5.8 million, which will be used to repay
short-term loans. Part of the disposal was effected on the Zimbabwe Stock Exchange on 17 December 2014 with a total value of
US$1 million. The rest of the disposal expected to be completed by 30 March 2015.
(ii) disposal of fixed property: the disposal is expected to raise US$4 million, which will be used to repay part of the short-term loans.
Negotiations on the ground show that the disposal is likely to go through before 30 September 2015.
(iii) sale of time share weeks The Group has opted for a timeshare weeks resale by early maturing imminently expiring time share
weeks that range between 3 and 6 years to expiry. The total proceeds from this disposal are expected to be at least US$2.9 million
and will be used to reduce borrowings.
(iv) cost reduction after achieving a significant saving of US$1.8 million in costs during the financial year ended 30 September 2014,
the Group is targeting further savings through implementation of various cost cutting initiatives.

Weighted average number of shares for diluted earnings are calculated by adjusting the weighted average number of ordinary
shares with the potentially dilutive ordinary shares. As at 30 September 2014, there were 32 926 655 potential dilutive share
options (2013: 32 926 655) which, were granted on 4 July 2013. For the share options, a calculation is done to determine the
number of shares that could have been acquired at fair value (determined as the average annual market share price of the
companys shares) based on the monetary value of the subscription rights attached to outstanding share options. The number of
shares determined using the described method is compared with the number of shares that would have been issued assuming
the exercise of the share options.

The Group recognised its investment in the associate at the beginning of the earliest period presented (1 October 2012), as the total
of the carrying amounts of the assets and liabilities previously proportionately consolidated by the Group. As at 30 September 2014,
the investment was in a net liabilities position, hence a nil carrying amount in the books of the Group.
