SA Post Office Performance for Quarter 4 As at 31 March 2018

Performance Overview The financial results are preliminary for the 2017/18 financial year and would be considered final once the Auditor General Year-end audit is completed. SAPO continues to operate in a highly constrained financial climate which restricts revenue retention and growth. The headcount is 18 119 as at 31 March 2018 and decreased by 175 employees during Quarter 4. Critical positions have been prioritized whilst other recruitment has been put on hold. The DTT Project has seen an uptick in results with the total STB registrations processed. A total of 686 150 qualifying applicants have been registered to date and 356 402 STB kits have been issued up to 31 March 2018. Postbank is in engagements with the Department of Telecommunication and Postal services (DTPS) regarding the critical legislative change requirements in the Banks Act and finalisation of the Bank Controlling Company (BCC) structure. SAPO and SASSA integrated project team are fully operational and the project is on track. 10 KPIs (34.5%) of the performance measures were achieved during Q4 due to program/project implementation delays. The preliminary performance for the year shows an achievement of 17 of the 37 KPI’s performing at 45.9%, and will be finalized once the audit is completed. SA Post Office - Restricted

Performance Overview - Financial Although a net profit of R121m was planned for Q4, the revenue shortfall remains a key contributor for the net loss of R72m posted for Q4 in the current year. Revenue missed the target by R193m. Overall revenue retention and growth remains a challenge with a decline of 2% from the prior year and R510m (29%) performance below the budget for Q4 in the current year. Cost containment has yielded positive results with a decline in expenditure of 8% from the prior year and R284m (18%) performance below the budget. Although some of the expenditure reduction is due to deferment of spending. The SAPO Group posted a net loss of R1 062bn for the preliminary period ended 31 March 2018, which is R 84m higher compared to R978m net loss in the previous year. The loss is attributed to revenues performing R1 945bn below the year target. The revenue shortfall has increased the monthly deficit to meet operational expenses which placed additional pressure on the constrained cash position of the organisation. SAPO has secured a term loan facility of R400m, of which part of the funds have been utilised to pay critical suppliers to sustain operations.

Performance measures SA Post Office - Restricted Theme 1: Revenue Growth (SAPO Group) Goal KPI Ref Key Performance Indicator Q4 Target Performance Q4 Actual Variance Target Achieved/Not achieved Reasons for Variance Planned actions going forward Total Revenue 1.1 Achievement of CP targeted revenue from 2016/17FY baseline revenue R1.756bn R1.246bn -R510m Not Achieved The main reasons for not achieving the target are the continued loss of customers and volumes and the delayed implementation of the planned revenue initiatives. Performance against Base revenue has been mostly affected by a decline in mail revenues. Although this was anticipate, the extent of the decline has been reduced by continued customer engagements. A much focused and aggressive plan needs to be executed as was also highlighted in the Strategic Turnaround Plan, which will help achieve the development of additional revenue streams. These revenue streams will help mitigate against the decline in mail revenues and related services. Management of portfolios and accountability at individual level for all sales personnel. Ensure revenue recovery strategies are implemented and tracked. Overall performance and consequence management to drive accountability.

Continued engagements with customers to customise solution e.g. Home choice solution. Partnership strategies for growth will be implemented in the coming financial year. Appointment of permanent Key Account Managers in vacant positions and the appointment of Senior Manager in the corporate sales environment Revenue Protection 1.8 Revenue Leakage recovered (Including from Reserved Market) R25m R4.3m -R20.7m The variance has been contributed by customer’s improving the bulk lodgements in mail posted that decreases the non-conformance. Bulk of the revenue recovery target however relates to the engagements with ICASA to better police the reserved market. SAPO is waiting for an official communication from ICASA with regards to the date of the hearing at the Complaints and Compliance Committee (CCC). New Revenue - Government business 1.9 No. of New Business Segments 1 -1 There has been discussions with a few government entities, however no contractual agreements have been concluded as yet.

The current budget was prepared using the FRA curve rates as there was an expectation that the interest rates would continue with the increasing trend, however this has not happened in the current month thus the decrease in the interest income when compared to the target. To optimise return on Postbank investments by ensuring fruitful investment deals are made. Postbank expect that the current partnerships will assist in increasing the investments thus increasing the interest earned. Postbank Growth Case Revenue 1.11 Achieve Non-Interest Revenue target from 2016/17FY Baseline Revenue R57m R45.9m -R11m The main reason for the underperformance in the base revenue is due to the following: Dropping trend in our transactions due to a non-compelling Customer Value Proposition (CVP) and Seasonal trends that show normally show a decrease in transactional income during this period. Initiatives to be undertaken in FY2019 are expected to increase non-interest revenue: • Increase Government business : Mzansi Y2 • New products; SASSA free tax account saving and investment. • New channels: Internet and mobile banking, ATM and POS devices. Postbank is currently revisiting its consumer value proposition with the aim of increasing customer base and maximising returns. SAPO has currently appointed GCIS to assist with the current marketing requirements and still hopes to appointment the Digital, Media, Creative and PR Agency that will assist in increasing brand awareness and improve consumer behaviour.

Hence the upgrade was cancelled. • EBDN (Electronic Bulk Delivery System) – this was linked to the SAP ERP upgrade. This upgrade will continue in the new financial year, once funding is allocated and skilled resources are employed. • IPMS (International Parcel Management System – Funding required • T&T (Project to upgrade existing or replace with IPS) - Funding required • Upgrade to Windows 10 on Desktop – was put on hold due to resource constraints SAPO is working to obtain funding to settle outstanding debts with service providers. Key dependencies are funding and skilled resources.

A proposal was adopted in the 2016/17 financial year, whereby about 30 Quality and Oversight inspectors were used within the Internal Audit Unit and under its control on a secondment basis. The project period was split up into 2 X 6 months focus areas with the first 6 months concentrating on the performance of fully fledged financial audits at the branches and the next 6 months concentrating on following up on the management corrective action plans on the audit issues identified. It was purposefully designed in this way to measure the improvement levels, post audit. This process provided Internal Audit with the opportunity to be able to re-focus certain experienced Retail Branch Inspectors to provide independent and objective assurance to the Retail Business Unit as well as to OPSCO, EXCO and the Board. 3.6 Implementation of MIS - N/A   SA Post Office - Restricted

The overall availability of machines is recorded at 53,8% and the position has declined, primarily due to the lack of funding for continued procurement of spare parts and the negative impact of non-payment of suppliers. Although the board approved the fleet proposal the contract has not yet been signed, impacting on efficiencies and effectiveness. Challenges are still being experienced with bicycles as a key resource for the delivery on the last mile. The international business environment is still challenged to a large extend primarily due to the high inflow of volumes and operational processes which are not aligned adequately to meet the demand. Challenges are experienced on the inbound parcels process in terms of performance and actions are underway to streamline the business processes further. The procurement process on forklifts are still in process. The signing of the redeployment framework and the shift framework between management and CWU can be seen as huge step forward, in order to execute on the operational initiatives and actions plans. Consultations with organized labour and implementation to continue in the first quarter of 2018/19. The installation of Fibre at JIMC has been completed and it is foreseen that the configuration will be concluded soon. The business case for the improvement of security, related to CCTV monitoring for JIMC and access control for various major processing centres, including JIMC, will be resubmitted for approval in the new financial year. It is envisaged that the proposal will gain traction in the new financial year, considering challenges with funding. 3.8 % Uptime for ATM and POS Transactions 98% 97.55% -0.45% The bank industry SLA for the 4th quarter was no achieved for both ATM and Debit card transactions. This is due to the following: • Database was done from the 04-05/02/2018; • Network connectivity - 16/02/2018 and • Power failure at 7 church and the generator did not kick in - 19/02/2018. • Postilion and UBS servers had to be restarted 5-6/03/2018; • DBA created table space with privileges which cause some tables not to be accessible 29/03/2018 • Slow network response 30/03/2018. • Dysfunctional port that was utilized on AA1 server (Postilion):31/03/2018.   SA Post Office - Restricted

Capacitate critical positions 4.4 % of Critical Vacancies Filled 100% by 31 March 2018 68 Branch Manager & 582 Teller positions Due to the financial constraints in the organisation a decision was taken to only fill the executive vacancies and place all other critical vacancies on hold. Once the financial situation improves priority will be given to critical positions identified within the organisation. Currently employees within IT/Finance /Project Management with these skills have been identified within the company and are being seconded to these areas. Further to that development opportunities have been advertised within these areas and the intention is to attract and place employees that have these qualifications or busy studying towards it, on a development programme in these areas. The filling of the four Postbank Executive positions are in process. Due to the SASSA project the Retail vacancies (Branch Manager and Teller) have been identified as critical and are in the process of being filled.

Buy-in to the Corporate Plan, organisational objectives and targets. Culture of not taking Performance Management seriously. Only management level’s performance is measured. Lack of financial compensation for high performers. Lack of consequence management. Planned actions going forward are the follow-up on performance reviews with line managers, ongoing communication on reasons to do performance management, and follow-up with managers to start managing. The key issues however are the engagement of employees when formulating strategy goals, lack of finances to reward good performance, and the lack of accountability and responsibility of managers. Enforcement of Performance Management 4.7 % of Non-Performing employees leaving the Organisation after due process 0% -100% This process that has not been implemented within SAPO yet, because of the culture within SAPO and the process that has to be followed before the process can be implemented. Managers have been encouraged to follow up on employees who are performing below acceptable standards, discuss the development plans for corrective action. Enforcement of the process should yield tangible results in the new financial year.

As audits are continuing, more of the same problems are identified and which will likely continue until adequate investment can be made regarding the latter. There is no systemic breakdown in the control framework of the SAPO – but rather, that such control framework is generally adequate, but that on a number of levels it remains ineffective. This can be attributed to, and this is not an exhaustive list of reasons: Staff vacancies at critical points in the various processes; poor skills and competencies at tactical level; inadequate management and supervision responsibilities. A back to basic project has started within the Finance/Accountings unit (with some good results), and should also be launched across many of the other key functional processes. This strategy is being formulated by Management to drive this aspiration of control improvement. This will receive ongoing focus in the new financial year by Management and oversight bodies.   5.2 % of Medium and Low risk Quality & Operations Audit Findings resolved within 30 days (Governance) 80% -80% SA Post Office - Restricted
