A. OTHER INTANGIBLES          
  The trademark impaired relates to the following brand:          
  Reportable segment Brand        
  Prescription Prelone 3 149   –  
  Volumes and pricing for this product are under pressure and consequently forecast profitibility has been reduced.          
B. INVENTORIES          
  Reportable segment Category        
  Prescription ARV’s –   (8 375)  
  Due to the high inventory levels in the market at the end of 2014, the probability of sales of certain products became remote, particularly when coupled with a short-term expiry date. Following the sale of a portion of these products in the prior year, part of the provision was reversed.          
C. OTHER          
  Reportable segment Asset        
  Southern Africa Other financial assets – Black Managers Share Trust (BMT) 4 135   6 336  
  Southern Africa Other debtors 1 354   –  
      5 489   6 336  
 

As a result of the on-distribution of dividend income, in the accounts of the corporate beneficiaries of the BMT share option scheme, the cost of the capital contributions exceeded the terminal amount at both reporting years. This required an impairment of this asset.

The Bophelo Trust’s investment in Ad-Izinyosi was higher than its 20% share of the assets, leading to R1.4 million impairment of the investment in the Bophelo accounts.
