• REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES– OPERATING RESULTS

• The company's net deficit amounted to R974,718 (2012: R 5,437,427) for the year ended 31 March 2013.

– REVIEW OF OPERATIONS• Total income received for the year (in the form of government funding,

interest receivable and sundry income) amounted to R40,839,051 (2012 R35,675,895). These funds are recognised on a systematic basis over the periods necessary to match the grants with the related costs which they are intended to compensate. Operational expenditure amounted to R41 813 769 (2012: R41,113,322) for the period.

• The deficits is due to increased Direct and Overhead costs such as property rental costs, property rates and taxes which could not be supplemented by the baseline allocation. NEMISA received an additional income in a form of projects such as the National Digital Repository (NDR) and the Community Radio. Although this is income minimal, it assists in supplementing the deficit.
