All subsidiary companies/entities are wholly-owned with the exception of The Link Investment Trust (“Link”) and Kalahari Medical Distributors (Proprietary) Limited (“Kalahari”).
Clicks Group Limited has a 56% interest in Link and 90% in Kalahari.
The loan to Link is interest free, unsecured and is repayable in annual instalments, not exceeding 10% of the underlying profit of the entity.
The loan and investment in Link were impaired in prior years as the carrying value of the loan and investment exceeded the present value of management’s best estimate of likely future cash flows discounted at the group’s risk adjusted pre-tax weighted average cost of capital. All other loans are interest free, unsecured and an unconditional right to defer payment for 12 months exists.
* Values less than R1 000.
