The advantages we have are our strong market position and combined knowledge of how toturn a business around by bringing operational excellence and customers back to the brand.We expect to see good gains in sales and profitability as we continue to implement a largenumberofsignificantchangestodrivegrowthacrossallthreeofourbusinesses.

One significant highlight for the year was the renewal of our KFC franchise agreements ninemonths early with Yum. This has given us certainty as to the ongoing rights to our biggestearningsstreamandconsiderablymorecomfortinpursuingourassettransformationstrategyintheKFCbrand.

fINANcIALS

Net profit after tax (excluding non-trading items) for the year ended 28 February 2007 was$6.5million,adecreaseof47%overtheprioryear.Thiswaslargelyduetothemajorfalloffinsalesandthe increasingpressureonPizzaHutmargins inNewZealandandoperating lossesfromPizzaHutVictoria.

Non-tradingitemstotalling$14.4million(pre-tax),primarilycomprisingthecostsandwritedownsofthePizzaHutVictoriaexit,meantareportedaftertaxlossfortheyearof$3.6million.

This is the company’s first annual report to shareholders to be completed under the newInternationalFinancialReportingStandards(IFRS).Fulldetailsarecontainedintheaccounts.One effect of the adoption has been that the company no longer amortises goodwill in itsaccounts, but completes an annual impairment test on the carrying value of its total assets.Following a detailed review of trading and the impact of our previously announced policy ofprogressivelyclosingredroofrestaurants,directorshaveresolvedtotakeanimpairmentchargetothePizzaHutNewZealandbusinessof$1.5million.
