COMMENTS BY DIRECTORS
Comments on the following matters are required by ASX or, in relation
to the half yearly statement, by AASB 1029: Half-Year Accounts and
Consolidated Accounts. The comments do not take the place of the
directors' report and statement (as required by the Corporations Law)
and may be incorporated into the directors' report and statement. For
both half yearly and preliminary final reports, if there are no
comments in a section, state NIL. If there is insufficient space to
comment, attach notes to this report.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTS PREPARATION
If this report is a half yearly report, it is a general purpose
financial report prepared in accordance with the listing rules and
AASB 1029: Half-Year Accounts and Consolidated Accounts. It should be
read in conjunction with the last annual report and any announcements
to the market made by the entity during the period. [Delete if
inapplicable.]
Material factors affecting the revenues and expenses of the economic
entity for the current period
Refer report.
A description of each event since the end of the current period which
has had a material effect and is not related to matters already
reported, with financial effect quantified (if possible)
In the Lemvest Ltd half yearly stock exchange release the purchase
and sale on favourable terms of the assets and business of A1
Security & Electrical Ltd was reported. This purchase and sale will
generate profit in the second half which will partly offset the bad
debt incurred when A1 was placed in receivership, as well as provide
sound, ongoing business for Lemvest Ltd's Malaysian subsidiary
Lemtronics Sdn Bhd.
Franking credits available (amount): $1,208,677
Prospects for paying fully or partly franked dividends for at least
the next year
The Company had a franking surplus of $1,208,677 (at 36%) at
31/12/1997 after taking into account dividends declared for the half
year. The adjusted balance in accordance with AASB 1034 for the Group
was a surplus of $7,031,688. It is anticipated that future dividends
will remain fully franked.
Changes in accounting policies since the last annual report are
disclosed as follows.
In accordance with the Accounting Standard AASB 1034, the redeemable
preference shares have been reclassified as a liability and the
dividend thereon treated as an interest expense. This has had the
effect of reducing the operating profit by $293,000 this year.
Previous corresponding period figures were not amended in accordance
with the standard, however for comparative purposes the prior year
figures need adjusting.
