Highlights  
Discontinued and held-for-sale operations
The assets of AFGRI Seed were re-valued to fair value during the first quarter of 2009 and transferred to “non-current assets and assets of a disposal group held-for-sale”. The negotiations have now been concluded and a sales transaction, at approximately the fair value, concluded after year-end.

During 2008 a total of four operations were sold or discontinued. Losses from the finalisation of these sales or closures are also included in the current year’s discontinued operations.

The Financial Services investment in Deposita Systems (Pty) Limited continues to be classified as “non-current assets and assets of a disposal group held-for-sale”, together with the 11 retail branches in the Lowveld disposed of subsequent to year-end.
