FOREWORD BY THE DEPUTY DIRECTOR-GENERAL (DDG: IC&G) OF the dtic

The CAV is intended to be a specialised industrial development tool focussing on advanced manufacturing. Its mandate is that of an industrial park and will be central in promoting South Africa as a global player in the aerospace, defence and advanced manufacturing industry value chains. Despite numerous challenges, the CAV has managed to achieve several milestones which include: the completion of the gate house and perimeter wall; an additional tenant is occupying the ITCT2 building; and have capacitated the board leading to improved governance. In the coming year, the focus will be given in attaining the Special Power of Attorney and construction of selected infrastructure. This process is critical in pursuing the CAV dream and to secure private Capital Funding to service the needs of interested tenants.

the dtic, through the Industrial Competitiveness and Growth Division, will continue to devote increased resource and policy support to strengthen the development of a self-sustainable CAV project. In this context, the dtic, will regularly review and update its support of the CAV project to take account of new developments and evolving trends in the domestic and global developments including industrial landscape, as well as inputs from our stakeholders and partners. It is my expectation that the experienced CAV board and management team will continue to make 2022/23 another year of great achievements. It is also my expectations that they will continue to facilitate the implementation of the CAV project, attracting additional tenants into the CAV.

FOREWORD BY THE CHAIRPERSON OF THE CAV BOARD I am pleased to report that CAV’s project is growing from strength to strength towards realisation of a goal to have a fully established Industrial Park. During the 2021/22 financial year the CAV team continued with critical development processes to initiate the township establishment programme. I am proud to say CAV continues to have good working relations with National Government Departments, Gauteng Provincial Government Departments and Government Entities. The National Government Departments that CAV interacted with during the year under review were the dtic as the shareholder, The Department of Public Works & Infrastructure (DPWI) and the Department of Water & Sanitation (DWS). The engagements with DPWI related to CAV obtaining a Power of Attorney (PoA) from DPWI as the landowners. The PoA from DPWI is a requirement for township proclamation processes. There were Technical Reports submitted to DWS and relate to the General Authorisation (GA) to approve the installation of the bulk water pipeline. In addition, the DWS pending approval is on the already submitted Technical Report for Water Use Licence Application (WULA) and this relates to the installation of the bulk sewer pipeline for CAV. The Gauteng MEC for the Department of Economic Development (GDED) was also engaged towards the realisation of the incorporation of CAV into GGDA. The Gauteng Department of Agriculture & Rural Development (GDARD) was also engaged by CAV within the year under review. Based on these engagements, GDARD therefore approved the submitted Environmental Authorisation Technical Report for Bulk Water Services. The other report for Bulk Sewer services should be approved by GDARD within the first quarter of the next Financial Year. CAV also engaged Rand Water an entity of DWS, and this resulted in Rand Water approving a Wayleave extension that will allow CAV to install a new bulk water pipe above the existing bulk pipeline of Rand Water. There were also engagements with the Council for Geoscience (CGS) an entity of the Department of Mineral Resources & Energy (DMRE). CGS is responsible for the approval of the conditions of construction site. CGS gave CAV a Record of Decisions (RoD) of approving the submitted technical

report for the construction of the Aerosud Gatehouse. The strategic outlook for the CAV future activities can be captured as follow: • • • •

Completion of the Township Establishment processes; Initiation of the external utility services and infrastructure works for water, stormwater, roads and sanitation; Start the construction of a Shared SMME MultiTenant Facility. Start the construction of the first tenant occupied manufacturing facilities.

My sincere appreciation goes to the stakeholders that make up the CAV project - the National, Provincial and Local Government and the aerospace and defence industries and its associations. A word of thanks is extended to all the contracted consultants and partners that have worked tirelessly to take this initiative forward. I would like to extend my gratitude to the CAV Board, the Audit & Risk Committee, and the Human Resources and Remuneration Committee (RemCo) as well as the Internal and External Auditors for their assurance in supporting the CAV Board in discharging its duties towards exercising its oversight role. It is indeed an honour to serve as a member of the Board in conjunction with committed board members I also extend my gratitude, on behalf of the CAV Board, to the CAV employees for their continued performance, dedication and support while the CAV’s mandate was executed over the past year despite the challenges that were faced. With the continued commitment of all the mentioned stakeholders and interested parties, CAV will be taken into full scale development as the next phase of project marks the preparation of the land to cater for tenant requirements.

CENTURION AEROSPACE VILLAGE NPC | ANNUAL REPORT 2021/22


EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR’S REPORT The Centurion Aerospace Village (CAV) continued to make steady progress during the past year on several construction activities in our quest to support growth of the Aerospace, Defence and Advanced Manufacturing Sectors. Several construction and non-construction related activities support the CAV to deliver on our mandate to establish an Industrial Park to support the growth and integration of local manufacturing into global supply chains. Our construction activities for Landside Development Phase are still ongoing. This phase will service tenants without a direct need to an airstrip and that offer products or services used in the manufacture of aircraft or defence related equipment, components and sub-assemblies. The minimum internal Bulk Earth Works and Infrastructure (BEWI) to support the future construction of manufacturing facilities in phase 1a and b has already been completed, with the remainder of the BEWI programme still to follow in future Financial Years. The minimum infrastructure includes internal water reticulation, storm water channelling, electrical works and the first section of road infrastructure. External utility services works are underway and applications for various environmental approvals such as Water Use License approvals and Basic Assessment and General Authorisations for bulk and bulk sewer were submitted. The Gauteng Department of Agriculture & Rural Development (GDARD) approved the Technical Report for water services. The Technical report for sewer services was being assessed by GDARD at the end of the Financial Year under review. The Department of Water and Sanitation was still busy with the assessments for the already submitted Technical Report for General Authorisation (water services study) and the Technical Report for Water Use Licence Application (WULA) (a sewer services study). CAV’s Management has and will continue to interact with Government Departments that are stakeholders to the park development. These Departments are Department of Public Works & Infrastructure (DPWI), Department of Employment & Labour (DOEL), Department of Water & Sanitation (DWS) and the Gauteng Department of Agriculture & Rural development (GDARD). The CAV liaison with City of Tshwane (CoT) is an ongoing process as they approve: (1) drawings for the current and future buildings, (2) issue wayleave approvals for all bulk external utility services, (3) issue Section 82

CENTURION AEROSPACE VILLAGE NPC | ANNUAL REPORT 2021/22

Certificate for all utility services being connected to the internal services and finally issue building occupancy certificates for all structures within the park. CAV will continue liaising with the following Government Entities as they form part of approval processes towards park development; Council for Geoscience (CGS), South African National Roads Agency (SANRAL) and Rand Water (RW). During the 2021/22 financial year, the following approvals were obtained towards the landside development: • • • • • • • • •

The drawings approvals for construction of Gatehouse 1 (Aerosud gatehouse) from CoT, The drawings approvals for construction of Park Perimeter Fence from CoT; The final occupation certificate has been obtained for both Gatehouse 1 and Perimeter Fence development from the CoT; The Basic Assessment approvals for external sanitation services from GDARD; The Water Use License (WUA) approvals for external sanitation services from DWS; The environmental assessment approvals for external water services from GDARD; The Water Use License (WUA) approvals for external water services from DWS; The wayleave approval for water and sanitation services from CoT; and The wayleave approval for water and sanitation services from Rand Water.

During the current financial year, the strategic focus will be to obtain the required power of attorney from the DPWI towards completing the township establishment process, and subsequently complete all external utility services to obtain a Section 82 certificate, which would then lead to CoT issuing an occupation certificate for the existing ATCC building. The next two financial years, the intention is to construct new facilities/ buildings in an approved municipal township, i.e., construction of Mini-Factories, SMME facilities and incubation centre. The focus is on finalising the external water and sanitation services implementation processes and seeking necessary approvals to implement the external streets and stormwater services, which would then pave the way for the finalisation of Section 82 Certificate. The 7


Contractor for the construction of external water and sanitation services was appointed in October 2018, and price negotiations are underway to complete the water and sanitation services. The construction of these services was delayed by the COVID-19 outbreak and delays in the Roads and Stormwater Department of the City of Tshwane approving the pipe crossing of the R21. The following processes are underway or are being initiated in finalising necessary approvals for external street and stormwater services: • • •

•

The environmental consultants have been appointed to conduct the studies for General Authorisation/Water Use License from DWS; The environmental consultants have been appointed to conduct the studies for Basic Assessment approval from GDARD; A new Traffic Impact Assessment is being initiated and will be used as an addendum to the already submitted comprehensive TIA to CoT for the street and stormwater drawings approvals; A revised bulk services report to be submitted to the CoT in finalising the updated Bulk Services Agreement (BSA) for external street and stormwater services. The revised BSA would determine the number of intersections to be upgraded because of CAV development. This is required as a result of recent developments such as the Castle Gate Shopping Centre in the area.

Non-construction related activities included continuous engagements with Gauteng Provincial Government and more specifically, to the Department of Economic Development (GDED) in relation to the proposed incorporation of CAV into the GGDA. This request was made to support the entity to secure Capital Funding that is required to address the attraction and retention of interested investors. The Inter-Governmental Relations (IGR) will undoubtedly strengthen support for investment as it will allow the CAV to access the suite of incentives that is available under the dtic, and in addition with a view on accessing SEZ incentives.

(CoT) Municipality continues as CoT assists the CAV to unlock critical development approvals and processes that facilitated the occupation of the new tenants in our existing building. The CAV will continue to forge strong partnerships with all the relevant role-players and departments at the National, Provincial and Local levels of Government as well as with the Aerospace and Defence industry as this will facilitate the development of the CAV’s future phases to support the medium to long-term stability of the local aerospace industry. The CAV’s future phases consist of an Airside Development Phase for tenants that require direct access to an airstrip as well as tenants offering Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) services and an in addition to the Landside Development Phase, the CAV has identified land adjacent to its current development that could serve the long-term needs should the industry require more land for expansion purposes. In conclusion, I would like to thank each member of the CAV for their hard work and dedication. For belief in our mission and unwavering support towards our cause. I also thank our executive authority, the CAV Board of Directors and our value industry partners for their patience, extremely valuable advice, oversight, support and guidance. The organisation is steadily progressing into a development that will see the Landside Development Phase of the CAV ready to support construction of new facilities in the coming year.

2.6.1. The Company & its Development The CAV is an initiative of the Department of Trade and Industry and Competition (the dtic). It was incorporated as a company not for gain in 2006 in terms of section 21 of the Companies Act, Act 61 of 1973, which now is a Non-Profit Company in terms of the new Companies Act, Act 71 of 2008. This Industrial Park is aimed at strengthening the supply chain by bringing aerospace, defence and other advanced manufacturing industry suppliers into proximity with one another and to co-locate them next to tier 1 supplier companies and anchor partners. The CAV is being developed on State-owned land provided by the Department of Public Works (DPWI) for which a Head Lease Agreement was signed between the dtic and DPWI with agreed terms and conditions. The CAV was designed to unlock the growth potential of the aerospace and defence sectors in order to contribute to the above objectives in a meaningful way, amongst others, the following: •

• 16

The local (national) aerospace and defence Industry will benefit from the development of the CAV that will contribute to the industry remaining internationally competitive. Local Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM)

•

The Small, Medium and Micro-sized Enterprise (SMME) sector will likewise benefit from a numerous opportunity that will be identified for further development.

The project consists of two areas namely: •

Landside Development (Short, Medium and Longer term): Phase 1 CAV Landside is envisaged to house firms who do not require runway access that specifically conduct design and manufacturing operations; and

•

Airside Development (Longer Term): Phase 2 CAV Airside is envisaged to house industry sub-tier firms who require runway access that specifically do upgrades, aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) and aircraft refurbishments.

Both Phases of developments are planned to be implemented over multiple reporting periods. Both developments are to be made possible by the application of sourced funding that would be supportive of the industrial policy of the dtic, and will accordingly be aligned with the following key elements thereof: CENTURION AEROSPACE VILLAGE NPC | ANNUAL REPORT 2021/22

3.3. Capital Development The development planning, construction and operations of the CAV are conducted within the prescribed statutory prescripts provided by the relevant levels of government.

4. SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS 4.1. The Aerospace and Defence Industry: Global Context Global and African Aerospace and Defence (A&D) Industry trends1 are of significant importance for the South African aerospace and defence industry and will influence the strategic outlook for CAV as it opens up new opportunities to provide support to the South African Aerospace and Defence sectors. The key findings of the report reveal that:

3.1. Institutional Arrangements

•

The commercial aircraft order backlog is at its peak of more than 14,000 with approximately 38,000 aircraft expected to be produced globally over the next 20 years. Manufacturers are ramping up production to accommodate growing aircraft demand and as OEMs increase production rates, suppliers are at risk to fail in ramping up production.

•

Geopolitical tensions are continuing to intensify and demand for military equipment is on the uptick, driving defence spending across the globe.

•

Changes in international trade agreements are likely to disrupt the global supply chains and increase costs. OEMs are seeking new solutions to develop international best-of-breed suppliers. Many of the latest breakthroughs and the most adaptable advances in new technologies are driven by and available not

CAV is a Non-Profit Company in terms of the Companies Act, Act 71 of 2008. It applies the governance principles encapsulated in the King Report on Corporate Governance in South Africa, (“King IV”) and continues to further entrench the recommended practices in its governance structures, systems, processes and procedures.

3.2. Corporate Governance The CAV strives to balance the pursuit and achievement of business objectives and compliance with the principles of good governance. In determining good corporate governance and business practices, the Board is guided by: •

Companies Act, 71 of 2008 and supporting Regulations, 1

CENTURION AEROSPACE VILLAGE NPC | ANNUAL REPORT 2021/22

The Public Finance Management Act, No. 1 of 1999 (PFMA) and supporting Treasury Regulations; and King IV report on corporate governance.

from A&D companies, but from the innovation clusters that are expanding their influence in virtually every large global seat of power. •

Mergers and Acquisitions (M&A) activity remains strong as pressure on suppliers to reduce costs and increase production rates continues.

•

Though A&D industry growth is primarily led by the United States, few other regions including China, France, India, Japan, the Middle East, and the UK, will be contributing to the industry’s performance in the near term. Africa is predicted by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) to become one of the fastest growing aviation regions in the next 20 years with an annual expansion rate of nearly 5%.2 Other regional A&D trends include3: China’s defence industry spend projected to grow by 9%-10% in the future; France intends to increase military spending by 5% per annum; India has a demand for more than 2000 singleaisle aircraft; Japanese air traffic projected to grow sluggishly by 3,2% per annum; Middle East air traffic projected to grow by 5,2% creating a demand for almost 3,000 new wide-body aircraft; in the United Kingdom Brexit is expected to disrupt supply chains and the country’s aviation industry would seek new trade agreements with supplying countries.

to date, supports around 6.9 million jobs and USD 80 billion in economic activities. Commercial airlines, in particular, can capitalize and attain a significant market share in this vast market by taking advantage of the booming leisure and business travel and tourism. In 2018, the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) declared Africa as the second-fastest growing tourism region next to Asia-Pacific.

Challenges in the African Aerospace Industry: •

4.2. Aerospace and Defence Industry: African context Over4 the recent years, opportunities in the dynamic African aviation industry is steadily rising, thanks to the continent’s growing political stability and tourism potentials. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has predicted that Africa will become one of the fastest growing aviation communities in the world over the next 20 years at a yearly increase of almost 5%. The continent continues to strengthen its aviation industry as it is considered one of the key drivers of Africa’s future economic development. Today, Africa accounts for around 3% of the global air transport sector, running 731 airports and 419 airlines. Aviation, 2

While5 it is evident that aviation in Africa has the potential to fuel economic growth, several barriers exist. Weak infrastructure, high ticket prices, poor connectivity and lack of liberalisation rank amongst the many challenges. Safety and security. Safety is the most pressing challenge facing the aviation industry. Airport infrastructure in most African countries is outdated and not built to serve the growing volume of passengers or cargo. Airlines and airports are often managed by government entities or regulatory bodies and foreign investment is discouraged. Modernising infrastructure and operations require investment and expertise, ideally from public-private partnerships. Africa needs to open its doors for private capital investment. Regulation and government actions: Despite growing awareness of the role that the aviation industry could play in the development of the continent, this industry is still not a priority of Africa governments. Liberalisation will bring strong outcomes – new routes, more frequent flights, better connections and lower fares. These improvements will increase the number of passengers, which will have both direct and indirect positive effects on trade, business travel and tourism. In turn, this has impacts for the broader economy, generating more tourism revenues, jobs and productivity. They will enhance the GDP of African countries and uplift the welfare of ordinary Africans. According to an IATA survey, if just 12 key African countries opened their markets and increased connectivity, an extra 155,000 jobs and USD 1.3 billion in annual GDP would be created in those countries. A study by InterVISTAS Consulting shows that in South Africa, liberalisation could yield an estimated 15,000 new jobs and generate USD 284 million contribution to national GDP’s. https://oecd-development-matters.org/2018/10/29/ unlocking-africas-aviation-potential/

In the African A&D industry, the Leonardo and Airbus are challenging the Hercules tactical airlift supremacy in Africa and making their presence felt in North Africa. Chinese military equipment is growing in Africa with two thirds of African countries operating some Chinese equipment. USA, Russia and Israel as well as Europe are the other key players in the African A&D industry.

4.3. Aerospace and Defence Industry: South African context

•

A case for South African MRO:The growing African aerospace industry raises the question on whether the airline operators can continue to afford spending their maintenance budgets abroad while establishing their own MRO facilities is prohibitively expensive. It is evident from the above evidence that Africa embodies great potential in the establishment of aircraft MRO and a number of international operators are moving in to fullfil the continents needs by investing in facilities and skills development: •

• • •

•

Nigeria’s Aero Contractors is engaged with the Nigerian government to attract private sector partners in a build-operate-transfer (BOT) MRO facility in Nigeria, Ghana is proceeding with a US$400 million MRO project in Kumasi, ST Engineering (Singapore) has announced contracts with national airline customers in Ivory Coast, Senegal and Mauritania, Estonia-based MRO is expanding in Africa through Direct Maintenance (Dutch) with bases in Kenya, Zambia, Zanzibar, Tanzania and Kenya, and Kenya MRO is supported by most West African countries for the maintenance of their Boeing 737 and Embraer aircraft. Kenya Airways does line maintenance in a growing number of other African airports.

•

In terms of technologies, Additive Manufacturing (AM) is seen as having great application in MRO. This disruptive technology, also known as 3D printing, holds promise as a cost-effective way to reproduce legacy spares, reduce inventory and manufacture parts in situ. Lufthansa Technik has already embraced the technology and set up a facility in Hamburg to expand its MRO competence and experience in this technology.

These trends highlight some immediate opportunities for the South African A&D industry such as: •

Commercial Aerospace movements in South Africa: •

Solenta Aviation is moving into freight conversions with Swiss specialist IPR conversions. Solenta is looking at establishing a freight conversion facility in Johannesburg,

CENTURION AEROSPACE VILLAGE NPC | ANNUAL REPORT 2021/22

Canadian airframer, Bombardier, plans to get closer to its customers in SA by relocating is Q Series regional support to Airways Park, close to OR Tambo International Airport, Lufthansa Technik (LHT) is the first foreign MRO provider to set up shop in South Africa to support the Comair fleet. LHT has set-up bases in Johannesburg and Cape Town in 2019 with plans for further expansion to other national airports, and The Paramount Group is active in the South African A&D industry and is engaged with the Saudi Arabian Military Industries (SAMI) to develop technologies and capabilities across land, sea and air-based based platforms and systems integration. SAA Technical has all but collapsed as a maintenance organisation. Some of this failure may be attributed to the recent significant dropp in air traffic movements caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. This decline provides opportunities for the development of a replacement capacity, potentially located at CAV.

The opportunity for South Africa to become a supplier country to the world A&D OEMs. The South African A&D industry is ranked 40th in a geographic assessment of manufacturing attractiveness by PwC6, above countries such as Turkey (41st), Saudi Arabia (45th) and Brazil (53rd). The attractiveness of South Africa as an investment destination for A&D players opens https://www.pwc.com/us/en/industrial-products/ publications/assets/pwc-aerospace-manufacturingattractiveness-rankings-2019.pdf

the opportunity to attract international OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers to CAV, •

•

•

The increased demand for air traffic in Africa increases the demand for MRO and maintenance of aircraft at a suitable destination on the continent. South Africa is ideally positioned with its good infrastructure and skills base to provide such a service to several African airlines. The strategic plan of CAV is therefore also focussed on the establishment of supporting infrastructure (runway access) to MRO companies wishing to establish in South Africa, The increased use of digital technologies, such as blockchain and Additive Manufacturing, artificial intelligence, virtual reality and other visualisation technologies creates an opportunity for CAV to reach out to high technology start-ups and create an enabling environment for these companies to engage with the OEM suppliers and MRO companies in the local and international A&D industries, and The introduction of new technologies in manufacturing (e.g. AM) and digitalisation (e.g. VR and autonomous platforms, cyber security etc.) could be an opportunity for CAV to establish the high tech industrial park to support the industry by providing support for high bandwidth communication using broadband fibre optic network, incubation centres for high technology start-ups and conference and training facilities geared to support high tech entrepreneurs and engineers, IT specialists and material scientists.

Industrial Participation strategy of the dtic, are the major aerospace OEMs, •

The OEMs are all attempting to reduce costs and to simplify their supply chain logistics through outsourcing functions that are niche and do not have an economic justification to retain them to the SMMEs. The SMME-type companies could successfully establish direct supply to these OEMs by physical positioning themselves closer to the OEMs and share supply chain logistics, thus rationalising the establishment of an industrial park such as the CAV,

•

The aerospace industry is characterised by the necessity for most stringent regulatory controls, mainly because of safety standards. Global supply requires of supplier’s major investment in quality and process approvals and specialist training. The costs of such approvals sometimes act as a barrier for smaller companies operating in isolation,

•

The aerospace industry is exceedingly dependent upon specialized competencies. These competencies are strongly dependent upon track record and established experience base. It is not realistic to base a strategy upon new entrants to immediately acquire the core competency necessary for participation in the higher tiers of supply. Core competency is historically presently vested in a few existing companies, not all of which can presently be considered B-BBEE-compliant, hence the need to support and create such SMMEs and B-BBEE compliant companies to achieve broadening economic participation and equity in the sector,

•

The industry is competing in the international arena and for it to be able to make inroads in this global industry, the local industry requires an Industrial Park Development of scale that should be able to allow a supplier competing in the local industry to market itself as an international role player,

•

Further to the above challenges, the limited government stewardship in the South African industry is currently perceived to be the biggest issue by aerospace

Challenges of the South African Aerospace and Defence Industry

The previously mentioned Aerospace Industry Sector Development Plan (the AISDP) is characterised by specific challenges that will be addressed in the formulation of a future strategy for the CAV. The development of CAV Landside and Airside facilities and services will allow CAV to capitalise on some challenges that are mentioned below: •

20

The SA market for aerospace services is too limited to offer marketable justification for the existence of a SA industry, and the industry must thus position itself for global participation. The most accessible clients, and those that are best accessed through the

CENTURION AEROSPACE VILLAGE NPC | ANNUAL REPORT 2021/22


industry players, followed by sporadic demand. Accordingly, government should strengthen its participation in supporting the aerospace industry by various means, including leveraging on Public Procurement and other methods of funding. In this regard, the Joint Aerospace Steering Committee (JASC) has been established to coordinate the aerospace industry for collective gain, •

The aerospace industry also requires a significant investment in terms of machinery plant and equipment. For South Africa to be able to deepen its manufacturing capabilities and move into knowledge-intensive value chain, a tremendous amount of industry upgrading will be necessary. The various governmental incentive schemes such as the Industrial Policy Action Plan (IPAP), the Black Industrialist Program, Invest SA, the Aerospace Industry Support Initiative (AISI) as well as, financing opportunities offered by agencies such as Industrial Development Corporation (IDC) and National Empowerment Fund (NEF) at national, provincial and local government levels are very handy in strengthening and upgrading the technological and industrial manufacturing capabilities,

•

Slow progress within the made toward transformation. The sector is not representative of the South African population and the new B-BBEE codes require a more aggressive approach to Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment,

•

High barriers to entry for new entrants into the market due to various reasons such as access to funding, high complexity vs. low volume-based sector, sector in South Africa is relatively small, etc., and

•

Finally, there is an insufficient pipeline of incubated sub-tier supplier companies and skilled personnel to absorb current knowledge and experience, and an insufficient intra-governmental co-ordination for industryspecific and structured support.

The limited availability of funding for the development of infrastructure, bulk services and facilities at CAV needs to be evaluated and challenged for the CAV

CENTURION AEROSPACE VILLAGE NPC | ANNUAL REPORT 2021/22

Landside and Airside Developments to succeed in contributing to the selected sectors of the economy meeting the mentioned challenges.

4.4. The Aerospace and Defence Industry: Clusters and Industrial Parks Cluster type developments in South Africa include the development of Industrial Development Zones (IDZs), e.g. Coega and East London IDZ as established IDZs, as well as the new generation IDZs at Saldanha in the Western Cape, Dube Trade Port in Kwa-Zulu Natal (KZN) and the Maluti-A-Phofung (MAP) IDZ in the Eastern Free State. The IDZs are expected to migrate to Special Economic Zones (SEZs). The Aerotropolis (Aerospace + Metropolis) type developments that are being undertaken at Ekurhuleni (around the OR Tambo Airport) and the Dube Trade Port seek to leverage off the combined and synergistic economic and demographic developments in an area. The development of industrial parks across a variety of industries and areas have taken place to attract investors, tenants and users of facilities and to leverage off local and foreign investment, availability of shared services and phased development of infrastructure and utility services. Benchmarked industrial park type developments are the Automotive Supplier Park in Rosslyn (Northern part of the City of Tshwane’s geographical Area) and the Nelson Mandela Bay Logistics Park at Uitenhage (near Port Elizabeth in the Eastern Cape). A cursory glance at experiences both locally and internationally indicate that there is more scope of commercial sustainability of cluster and industrial park developments if projects of this nature are operated outside of government administration structures albeit with government initiation and even funding of the process, at least initially with infrastructure and services’ development funding. The following examples of global industrial parks of cluster concept developments with comparable mandates and similar goals were identified as follow: •

Hi-Tech Industrial Parks with a similar focus on the Aerospace, Defence and Advanced Manufacturing Sectors: − Aeropolis, Aerospace Technology Park of 21

Hamburg Aviation.

These clusters are often structures in support of infrastructure developments and operate autonomously as in the case of Piemonte and Lazio.

Both these Industrial Parks were developed by the military with a strong focus on supporting the strengthening of military supply chains – both are good supporting developments in support of the CAV’s future Airside Development Phase.

Internal Audit’s Responsibilities The internal auditor performed its duties according to an Internal Audit Charter (IAC), Annual Audit Plan and Strategy which was approved in the 2021/22 financial year. The Internal Audit function operates under the direction of the Audit and Risk Committee, which approve the scope of the work to be performed. The Internal Audit reports were presented to the Audit & Risk Committee.

Recruitment

Figure 6: HR Functional Areas

The recruitment and selection of employees can contribute towards the longevity of any business. Finding a good fit when it comes to recruiting talent is one of the most important aspects of HR. The CAV aims to attract, recruit and retain people who are capable of effectively dealing with and responding to rapidly changing circumstances and whose values and beliefs match our own. We have a policy of hiring and promoting the best person for the job, based on proven performance and potential assessment.. Although the CAV regularly attract new employees from outside the organisation to bring in new expertise and experience when required, we continue to focus on developing our own employees 44

to fill roles internally. Our on boarding process further ensures that new recruits settle in their positions quickly and commence their contribution to the organisation’s performance in the shortest time possible.

Training and Development Having a trained workforce means employees are learning new skills that can improve production, reduce costs, reduce mistakes, build confidence and create a better working environment. In consultation with employees and their line manager, the Human CENTURION AEROSPACE VILLAGE NPC | ANNUAL REPORT 2021/22


Resource department provides a variety of training and development opportunities aimed at building employee capacity to deliver and meet strategic objectives. The performance management system is used to assess training needs to ensure that staff attain the right training relevant to their jobs.

Performance Management At CAV, we see employee development as a shared responsibility. It is our aim to have a well-embedded and standardised process for managing and evaluating performance. At the beginning of every financial year, employees engaged with their managers to set themselves individual goals linked to business objectives. This is to ensure that each employee is responsible for delivering according to the CAV’s business plan. Besides regular business and performance reviews, employees also get together with their managers on a regular basis for a constructive, future-focused conversation in which they receive feedback and coaching.

Compensation and Benefits Compensation plays an integral role in the successful delivery of CAV’s strategic objectives. Attracting and retaining talent is central to the CAV’s compensation strategy. The process of compensation and benefits ensures that the organisation is remunerating its employees competitively in accordance with market trend. As the organization seeks to align compensation to evolving external and internal expectations, reward structures are reviewed annually and adjusted as required.

HR Compliance

is fundamental to our roles as a corporate citizen in the business world and being a trusted HR partner. We strive to avoid compliance breaches to laws and regulations. When developing new business models or concepts, our Legal department is consulted to ensure compliance. Upon joining our company, our employees receive a copy of and training in the business principles and acknowledge that they will comply with them. Periodic refresher training on core values, business principles, and relevant compliance policies is also in place.

Employee Wellness CAV recognises that the pace and pressures of today’s corporate environment is such that employees do need wellness support on occasion to cope. CAV has the wellness of employees at heart, and in support of this caring organisational culture and in terms of the employee wellness policy, a service provider has been contracted to assist employees with a wide range of personal and work-related problems.

Plans for the Future HR plays an instrumental role in securing the future success of the CAV. The function is guided by its long-term vision of working in partnership to create an environment where employees can thrive and are enabled to deliver sustainable organisational performance. In doing so the HR department seek to further enhance its human capital to support the organisation; to strengthen its role as a control function for the organisation’s human capital risks; and to continuously build the capabilities of managers and staff.

Promoting best practices and raising awareness of relevant laws and policies is an ongoing process within the CAV. Adherence to laws and regulations

2. CAV – A CONCENTRATION OF SUB-TIER INDUSTRY SUPPLIERS Since its inception in 2006/07 the CAV, as a Supplier Park Development, was intended to provide manufacturing, maintenance, repairs and overhaul (MRO) capability infrastructure for ‘anchor tenants’ as well as a range of large to small enterprises, sub-tier CENTURION AEROSPACE VILLAGE NPC | ANNUAL REPORT 2021/22

suppliers to the Aerospace Industry (later the Defence Industry was added to this). This includes the earlier stated vision for CAV to support the following: 47


•

•

Phase 1: CAV Landside Development CAV Landside was envisaged to house industry sub-tier suppliers who specifically would conduct design and manufacturing operations, but do not require runway access and could be extended to developments below; and Phase 2: CAV Airside Development CAV Airside was envisaged to house industry sub-tier suppliers who required airside runway access to specifically conduct upgrades, aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) and aircraft refurbishment activities and could be expanded to other airports and selected local developments. There was an earlier understanding between the dtic, DPWI and the Waterkloof Air Force Base for accessing parts of the existing Airforce Base land for this purpose.

•

Phase 3: East Campus Development Phase 3, the East Campus, a portion of DPWI land, immediately to the east of CAV Landside and next to the R21 roadway was envisaged to (e.g.) house office buildings, conference facilities and possibly the head office complex of a corporate business entity.

Initially Landside and Airside developments were planned to be implemented in phases. Both developments were to be made possible by the application of sourced funding that would be supportive of the industrial policy of the dtci, and would accordingly be aligned with the following key elements thereof: • • • • •

Planning, development and operation of the Landside and Airside Developments of the CAV as an Aerospace and Defence Supplier Park, Generally directed towards B-BBEE and Human Resource Development, Focusing on the encouragement of new small and medium (SMME) sized entrants with the establishment of Multi-Tenant SMME Facilities, Contributing to skills development; and Directed towards innovation, technology development and support for associated infrastructure development.

improved processes, increased productivity, and cost competitiveness of local manufacturers. These services are not exhaustive and include: • • • • • •

The Town Planners continued planning for the Section 101 Certificate for all utility bulk services agreements signed as a result of progress made. The CAV appointed Conveyancers proceeded to run the process of opening the township register. The CAV operations and technical team is preparing to construct the gatehouses for both the CAV and Aerosud and the Geotechnical Engineers had to conduct soil reclassification assessments resulting from changes in the regulations of the Council for Geo-Science (CGS). The Geotechnical Engineers completed the drilling process and submitted to CGS for approval of the recommendations of type of foundations to be constructed. Environmental Control Officer (ECO) was appointed during the period under review. As per statutory requirements Safety Agents, registered with South African Council for Project and Construction Management Professions (“SACPCMP”), were appointed to monitor compliance regarding issues of construction safety, health, risk and quality (“SHRQ”). The technical team is led by the Principal Agent, the rest of the team comprises of electrical, mechanical’ structural engineers, architects and quantity surveyors.

4.2. Project delivery During the financial year under review physical project delivery performance was as follows: •

•

External Bulk Roads (Streets) & Storm water: − The start of construction work relies on CoT approving the drawings for van Ryneveld & Van der Spuy Road intersection upgrades. − In addition to upgrades to for van Ryneveld & Van der Spuy Road intersection, CAV intends to upgrade the following road intersections in 2021/22FY; van Reyneveld Avenue & Jim Verster Avenue (Intersection Upgrades) and van Reyneveld & Theron Street (Signal Timing). The upgrades to Boeing Street & Solomon Mahlangu Drive may be implemented in 2022/23FY. − Jodan Konstruksie (Pty) Ltd, the appointed contractor may only occupy site upon approval of the drawings and Wayleaves by CoT for upgrading van Ryneveld & Van der Spuy Road intersection.

•

Minimum Internal Bulk Earth Works and Infrastructure Services (minimum BEWI): − The minimum BEWI project as implemented by Jodan Rekopane JV (“JRJV”) reached practical completion. The next phase of the BEWI will entail the construction of the Aerosud gatehouse. At the end of Q4, JRJV was still pricing the BoQ for Aerosud gatehouse upgrades. The commencement of construction for the Aerosud gatehouse may be in Q1:2021/22FY.

External Bulk Water & Sanitation (Sewer) Services: By the end of the financial year, the sewer services, environmental management consultants had implemented the following: −

−

−

−

The Water Use Licence Application (WULA) process done through the Department of Water & Sanitation (DWS) was ongoing at the end of the financial year. The Environmental Authorisation (EA) process done through the Gauteng Department of Agriculture & Rural Development (GDARD) was ongoing at the end of the financial year. GDARD approved the EA for water and at the end of 2020/21FY, the Technical Report for sewer services was yet to be approved. The WULA requirement was unforeseen and emanated from CoT Bridge Management Department’s instruction of not installing the pipe through affixing along the culvert (bridge) which was as per drawings approved by the CoT Water & Sanitation Department. It was initially projected that the EA & WULA approval processes that takes up to 12 months may be concluded by October 2020. The WULA process may now be completed by Q3 of 2021/22FY. Jodan Konstruksie (Pty) Ltd, the appointed contractor may only resume work on site upon completion of WULA and EA as well as CoT approving the Wayleaves that include WULA/EA.

5. OVERVIEW OF PAST DEVELOPMENT ACTIONS 5.1. Infrastructure, Services’ and Facility Development Meetings were held with the CoT’s town planning department during October 2020 to solicit support for the extension of time on the township establishment approach, and resulted in CAV getting extension till November 2021 (this is an additional year) 50

The initial Section 7(6) lapsed in April 2020 and CoT is yet to respond to the request for extension made before the deadline as well as on follow-up correspondence. CoT Roads & Storm-water Department has delayed the preparation of the addendum to the sewer &

CENTURION AEROSPACE VILLAGE NPC | ANNUAL REPORT 2021/22


stormwater bulk services agreement since July 2020. The addendum relates to upgrades to the 7 road intersections being in a phased approach, whereby Van Ryneveld & Van der Spuy Road intersection will be upgraded within the next financial year. Most of these delays can be subscribed due to the Covid 19 pandemic as officials were unavailable. The following items as requested by CAV from CoT are still pending: • •

Extension of the Section 7 (6) approval that allows CAV to temporarily occupy the ATCC Building; Approval of the drawings for Van Ryneveld & Van der Spuy Road intersection upgrades.

CAV’s Management has and will continue to interact with Government Departments that are stakeholders to the park development. These Departments are Department of Public Works & Infrastructure (DPWI), Department of Employment & Labour (DOEL), Department of Water & Sanitation (DWS) and the Gauteng Department of Agriculture & Rural development (GDARD). The CAV liaison with City of Tshwane (CoT) is an ongoing process as they approve: (1) drawings for the current and future buildings, (2) issue wayleave approvals for all bulk external utility services, (3) issue Section 82 Certificate for all utility services being connected to the internal services and finally issue building occupancy certificates for all structures within the park. CAV will continue liaising with the following Government Entities as they form part of approval processes towards park development; Council for Geoscience (CGS), South African National Roads Agency (SANRAL) and Rand Water (RW). During the 2021/22 financial year, the following approvals were obtained towards the landside development: • • • • • •

The drawings approvals for construction of Gatehouse 1 (Aerosud gatehouse) from CoT, The drawings approvals for construction of Park Perimeter Fence from CoT; The final occupation certificate has been obtained for both Gatehouse 1 and Perimeter Fence development from the CoT; The Basic Assessment approvals for external sanitation services from GDARD; The Water Use License (WUA) approvals for external sanitation services from DWS; The environmental assessment approvals for external water services from GDARD;

CENTURION AEROSPACE VILLAGE NPC | ANNUAL REPORT 2021/22

• • •

The Water Use License (WUA) approvals for external water services from DWS; The wayleave approval for water and sanitation services from CoT; and The wayleave approval for water and sanitation services from Rand Water.

During the current financial year, the strategic focus will be to obtain the required power of attorney from the DPWI towards completing the township establishment process, and subsequently complete all external utility services to obtain a Section 82 certificate, which would then lead to CoT issuing an occupation certificate for the existing ATCC building. The next two financial years, the intention is to construct new facilities/ buildings in an approved municipal township, i.e., construction of Mini-Factories, SMME facilities and incubation centre. The focus is on finalising the external water and sanitation services implementation processes and seeking necessary approvals to implement the external streets and stormwater services, which would then pave the way for the finalisation of Section 82 Certificate. The Contractor for the construction of external water and sanitation services was appointed in October 2018, and price negotiations are underway to complete the water and sanitation services. The construction of these services was delayed by the COVID-19 outbreak and delays in the Roads and Stormwater Department of the City of Tshwane approving the pipe crossing of the R21. The following processes are underway or are being initiated in finalising necessary approvals for external street and stormwater services: • • •

•

The environmental consultants have been appointed to conduct the studies for General Authorisation/Water Use License from DWS; The environmental consultants have been appointed to conduct the studies for Basic Assessment approval from GDARD; A new Traffic Impact Assessment is being initiated and will be used as an addendum to the already submitted comprehensive TIA to CoT for the street and stormwater drawings approvals; A revised bulk services report to be submitted to the CoT in finalising the updated Bulk Services Agreement (BSA) for external street and stormwater services. The revised BSA would determine the number of intersections to be upgraded because of CAV development. This 51


is required as a result of recent developments such as the Castle Gate Shopping Centre in the area.

5.2. Interaction with Interested Parties Since its inception, the CAV has succeeded in attracting the interest of a number of strong industry players to consider the CAV as an investment location to relocate or expand their footprints in Gauteng and to be part of the Industrial Park Development. This renewed interest is as a direct result of increased marketing and business development activities combined with bulk earth works and infrastructure activities taking place on the Landside Development site. Several Letters-of-Intent (LOI’s) were signed with industry partners interested to explore the CAV as a potential investment destination.

During the coming year the engagements towards incorporation of the CAV into the GGDA will continue. This process is critical to support the CAV to secure Capital Funding to service the growing needs of interested tenant.

5.3. Strategic Partnership and interested tenants The tenant appetite for setting up space at CAV must be resuscitated once the power of attorney has been obtained from the DPWI. During the year, CAV will continue engaging with various strategic stakeholders in determining the legal status of the entity. CAV will also pursue other avenues for example the tripartite agreement between National Government, Provincial Government, and Local Government towards forming a new company status for CAV.

6. THE CAV AS A VIABLE BUSINESS 6.1.Creating a Commercially Viable Entity The objectives are to successfully build and operate an Industrial Park and to secure aerospace, defence and advanced manufacturing tenants in order to become self-sustainable and profitable. The capital funding for the provision of internal bulk earthworks infrastructure and external utility services development, as well as operational funding for the management of the CAV is being provided for by the dtic. To achieve its complete vision and to further develop tenant and building-owner facilities, as well as general and specialised support services funding will be sourced through a combination of private and public funding.

The social impact of investment in infrastructure development and the upgrading of facilities once companies move to the CAV will be significant. Importantly, there will be an increase in the pool of skilled people in the community and larger income per capita, with spin-off benefits for the national, provincial and local economy. The CAV’s Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE) agenda complements its social responsibility initiatives by fostering an environment, including incubation facilities and services, within which businesses from previously disadvantaged communities can develop and prosper.

6.2. Creating a Responsible South African Company By attracting fixed domestic and international investment, the development of the CAV will lead to the contribution of job creation and sustainability in the aerospace and defence industry. This will achieve significant macro-economic benefits nationally, provincially for Gauteng and locally for the City of Tshwane. 52

CENTURION AEROSPACE VILLAGE NPC | ANNUAL REPORT 2021/22


7. FUTURE OUTLOOK The CAV, as a typical cluster development, needs to attract aerospace and advanced manufacturing suppliers to reach a “critical mass”. The CAV would need to ensure further investment in production buildings over and above the dtic budget. It would need to finalise the utility and support services that will be required for the development of tenant facilities within the CAV. Cluster programmes that were identified for the CAV includes; 1) Central Shared Logistics Centre; 2) Incubation Centre and Programme; 3) Skills Development and Training Centre and 4) a Shared SMME Multi-Tenant Facility.

The intention is to solidify the CAV as an Advanced Manufacturing Cluster and Industrial Park Development as the entity conclude on all of its township establishment processes including the finalisation of bulk earth works, infrastructure and utility services that are required to start full scale development. The future outlook is that the CAV will be ready to address the needs of its tenants in order to create an environment that is considered an ideal place in which to do business and to work. A challenge would be to transition the CAV from a virtual organisation to a more conventional operational structure with an implementation mind-set that will require additional capital funding to address the needs of its potential tenants.

8. IMPLEMENTATION PLAN The past financial year saw a renewed increase in interest from role players from both the Aerospace and Defence industry in the CAV project. The CAV will continue to create awareness of the project in the market. An increase in awareness will undoubtedly lead to an increase in potential tenants interested to locate within the CAV. The biggest constraint for the CAV is access to Capital Funding. It is the intention that the CAV request Capital Funding to service the current tenant requirements for which Letters-of-Intent (LOI) were received. These projects can only materialise if capital funding is made available to so that LOI’s can be migrated to full-blown pre-lease and lease agreements.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

ACCOUNTING POLICIES 1. PRESENTATION OF ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The annual financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and the Companies Act, 71 of 2008, of South Africa. The annual financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for the statement of cash flows which is prepared on a cash basis, and other financial assets which is measured according to its fair value and incorporate the principal accounting policies set out below. The amounts are presented in South African Rands. 1.1. SIGNIFICANT JUDGEMENT AND SOURCES OF UNCERTAINTY In preparing the annual financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts represented in the annual financial statements and related disclosures. Use of available information and the application of judgement is inherent in the formation of estimates. Actual results in the future could differ from these estimates which may be material to the annual financial statements. Trade receivables The company assesses its trade receivables for impairment at the end of each reporting period. In determining whether an impairment loss should be recorded in surplus or deficit, the company makes judgements as to whether there is observable data indicating a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows from a financial asset. Fair value estimation The carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the company for similar financial instruments.

and individual assets have been determined based on the higher of value-in-use calculations and fair values less costs to sell. These calculations require the use of estimates and assumptions. It is reasonably possible that the assumption may change which may then impact our estimations and may then require a material adjustment to the carrying value of tangible assets. Expected future cash flows used to determine the value in use of tangible assets are inherently uncertain and could materially change over time. The company reviews and tests the carrying value of assets when events or changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Assets are grouped at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of cash flows of other assets and liabilities. If there are indications that impairment may have occurred, estimates are prepared of expected future cash flows for each group of assets. Useful lives and residual values The residual values and useful lives of property, plant and equipment are based on management estimates. 1.2. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT The cost of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised as an asset when: • it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to the entity; and • the cost of the item can be measured reliably. Property, plant and equipment is initially measured at cost. Property, plant and equipment is carried at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. Property, plant and equipment are depreciated on the straight-line basis over their expected useful lives to their estimated residual value.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

ACCOUNTING POLICIES are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists and where the carrying values exceed the estimated recoverable amount, the asset or cash-generating units are written down to their recoverable amount. Impairment losses and reversal of impairment losses are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. Gains and losses on disposal of property, plant and equipment are determined by reference to their carrying amount and are taken into account in determining operating surplus. The useful lives of items of property, plant and equipment have been assessed as follows: Item

Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. Intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any impairment losses. The amortisation period and the amortisation method for intangible assets are reviewed every period-end. Amortisation is provided to write down the intangible assets, on a straight-line basis, to their residual values as follows: Item Computer software

1.4. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Classification The company classifies financial assets and financial liabilities into the following categories: • Loans and receivables • Financial liabilities measured at amortised cost • Financial assets measured at fair value through surplus and deficit. Initial recognition and measurement

The residual value, useful life and depreciation method of each asset are reviewed at the end of each reporting period. If the expectations differ from previous estimates, the change is accounted for as a change in accounting estimate. The depreciation charge for each period is recognised in surplus or deficit unless it is included in the carrying amount of another asset. An intangible asset is recognised when: • It is probable that the expected future economic benefits that are attributable to the asset will flow to the entity; and • the cost of the asset can be measured reliably. An intangible asset is an identifiable non-monetary asset without physical substance.

66

Financial instruments are recognised initially when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instruments. The company classifies financial instruments, or their component parts, on initial recognition as a financial asset, a financial liability or an equity instrument in accordance with the substance of the contractual arrangement. For financial instruments which are not at fair value through surplus or deficit, transaction costs are included in the initial measurement of the instrument. Transaction costs on financial instruments at fair value through surplus or deficit are recognised in surplus or deficit.

CENTURION AEROSPACE VILLAGE NPC Registration Number: 2000/006996/08

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

ACCOUNTING POLICIES Financial Assets Financial assets are initially measured at fair value plus direct transaction costs. Financial assets at fair value through surplus or deficit are subsequently measured at fair value with gains for losses being recognised in surplus or deficit. Other financial assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method. Financial Liabilities Financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value plus direct transaction costs. Financial liabilities that are designated on initial recognition as financial liabilities at fair value through surplus or deficit are subsequently measure at fair value, with changes in fair value being recognised in surplus or deficit. Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective interest method. Trade and other receivables Trade and other receivables are initially measured at fair value and are subsequently measured at amortised cost. Trade and other payables Trade payables are initially measured at fair value and are subsequently measured at the amortised cost of the legal or constructive obligations. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and demand deposits, and other short term highly liquid investments that that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. These are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost. 1.5. LEASES Finance leases are leases whereby substantially all the

CENTURION AEROSPACE VILLAGE NPC | ANNUAL REPORT 2021/22

risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the lessee. Assets acquired in terms of finance leases are capitalised and depreciated over the shorter of the useful life of the asset and the lease term, with a corresponding liability raised on the Statement of Financial Position. The asset and liability are recognised at the commencement date at the lower of the fair value of the leased asset and the present value of minimum lease payments, calculated using the interest rate implicit in the lease at the inception of the lease. Any initial direct costs incurred are added to the amount recognised as an asset. Related finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the period of the lease using the effective interest method. Leases, where the lessor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset, are classified as operating leases. Operating lease expense and income with fixed escalation clauses (net of any incentives received from the lessor or incentives given to the lessee) are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The resulting difference arising from the straight-line basis and contractual cash flows is recognised as an operating lease obligation or asset. Contingent rental escalations, such as those relating to turnover, are expensed in which the escalations are determined. 1.6. PROVISION AND CONTINGENCIES Provisions are recognised when: • the company has a present obligation as a result of a past event; • it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation; and • a reliable estimate can be made of the obligation. The amount of a provision is the present value of the expenditure expected to be required to settle the obligation. Contingent assets and contingent liabilities are not recognised. Contingencies are disclosed in note 17. Provisions are not recognised for any future operating losses. 1.7. GOVERNMENT GRANTS Government grants are recognised when there is reasonable assurance that:

67


CENTURION AEROSPACE VILLAGE NPC Registration Number: 2000/006996/08

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

ACCOUNTING POLICIES • the company will comply with the conditions attached to them; and • the grants will be received. Government grants are recognised as income over the periods necessary to match them with the related costs that they are intended to compensate. Government grants received for the acquisition of assets are capitalised as deferred income and recognised in the statement of comprehensive income over the useful life of the relevant asset. 1.8. REVENUE Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the revenue can be reliably measured. The following specific recognition criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised. Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the buyer. When the outcome of a transaction involving the rendering of services can be estimated reliably, revenue associated with the transaction is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction at the end of the reporting period. The outcome of a transaction can be estimated reliably when all the following conditions are satisfied: • the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; • it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the company; • the stage of completion of the transaction at the end of the reporting period can be measured reliably; and • the costs incurred for the transaction and the costs to complete the transaction can be measured reliably. Revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents the amounts receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, net of trade discounts and volume rebates, and value added tax. Interest is recognised, in surplus or deficit, using the 68

time apportionment method, unless it is required to be capitalised in terms of a grant funding agreement. 1.9. EMPLOYEE BENEFITS The cost of short-term employee benefits, (those payable within 12-months after the service is rendered, such as paid vacation leave and sick leave, bonuses, and nonmonetary benefits such as medical care), are recognised in the period in which the service is rendered and are not discounted. The expected cost of compensated absences is recognised as an expense as the employees render services that increase their entitlement or, in the case of non-accumulating absences, when the absence occurs. Performance bonus The performance bonus is based on performance ratings and other factors including the performance of the entity, and its consequent ability to make bonus payments without infringing the requirements of prudent good governance. The expected cost of bonus payment is recognised as an expense when there is a legal or constructive obligation to make such payments as a result of past performance. The costs of providing employee benefits are recognised in surplus or deficit. 1.10. STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS The statement of cash flows is prepared using the direct method. 1.11. FRUITLESS AND WASTEFUL EXPENDITURE Fruitless and wasteful expenditure means expenditure which was made in vain and would have been avoided had reasonable care been exercised. All expenditure relating to fruitless and wasteful expenditure is recognised as an expense in the Statement of Financial performance in the year that the expenditure was incurred. The expenditure is classified in accordance with the nature of the expense, and where recovered, it is subsequently accounted for as revenue in the statement of Financial Performance.

Under the new definition, accounting estimates are “monetary amounts in financial statements that are subject to measurement uncertainty”. The requirements for recognising the effect ofchange in accounting prospectively remain unchanged

5. LONG-TERM DEPOSITS Aerosud Holdings Pty Ltd City of Tshwane deposits Lombard insurance

Four bulk service agreements were signed with City of Tshwane for the below mentioned services for the proposed Pierre van Ryneveld X33 Township: a) Electrical Services; b) Water Services; c) Sewer/ sanitation Services; and d) Streets/roads and Stormwater Services. The agreements stipulate the pre-proclamation requirements under which the above services were to be supplied to the proposed township, including the following: • Bulk contributions towards the cost of External Services; and • Provision of Performance or Maintenance guarantees. In line with the above requirements, performance and maintenance guarantees were sourced from Lombard Insurance and submitted to the City of Tshwane Metropolitan Municipality. The long-term deposit was paid to the City of Tshwane for wayleave security deposit in line with the statutory requirements stipulated in Clause 9,2 of the Provincial Gazettee dated 19 February 2019. The provision of Wayleave refundable security deposit payments and submission of performance and maintenance guarantees to City of Tshwane were a mandatory requirement in obtaining a Section 101 certificate The issuing of the Section 101 certificate allows the developer to undertake site construction works, including Bulk Earthworks and Infrastructure (BEWI), utility services and specific facilities (such as tenant buildings). CAV has received the Section 101 certificate from the Municipality and are in the process of submitting the same to the Deeds Office. The submission of Section 101 certificate would pave the way for a Section 103 certificate for township proclamation being issued by the Deeds Office. Once the Section 103 certificate is issued, the guarantee and the Way leave deposit can be claimed within 12-months of retention period. A deposit was made to Aerosud Holdings Pty Ltd for the temporary utility services as the mentioned services are temporarily connected to Aerosud utility services. The amount would be claimed back once the Section 82 certificate, and occupation certificate for ATCC building are obtained from the City of Tshwane.

Credit quality of trade and other receivables The maximum exposure to credit risk at the reporting date is the fair value of each class of debtors mentioned above. Exposure to credit risk Trade receivables inherently expose the company to credit risk, being the risk that the company will incur financial loss if customers fail to make payments as they fall due. There have been no significant changes in the credit risk management policies and processes since the prior reporting period. Trade receivables consist mainly of rental income from tenants and utility expense recovery in line with the memorandum of agreement signed with the current tenants. A loss allowance is recognised for trade receivables, in accordance with IFRS 9: Financial Instruments, and is monitored at the end of each reporting period. In addition to the loss allowance, trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery, for example, when a debtor has been placed under liquidation. Trade receivables which have been written off are not subject to enforcement activities. The company applies the simplified approach for expected credit losses prescribed by IFRS 9, which permits the use of lifetime expected credit loss provision for all trade receivables. The company’s historical credit loss experience does not show significantly different loss patterns for different customer segments. Trade and other receivables past due but no loss allowances recognised Trade and other receivables which are less than 3-months past due are considered for loss allowances or ECL’s. As on 31 March 2022, a previously impaired amount of R86,993 was taken out of the accounts receivable as the amount was not recoverable. Less than 30 days Between 31 and 60 days and above

Credit quality of cash at bank and short-term deposits, excluding cash in hand The credit quality of cash at bank and short-term deposits, excluding cash on hand that are neither past due nor impaired can be assessed by reference to historical information about counterpart default rates. None of the financial institutions with which bank balances are held defaulted in prior periods and as a result a credit rating of high are ascribed to the financial institutions. The company’s maximum exposure to credit risk as a result of the bank balances held is limited to the carrying value of these balances as detailed above. However, to mitigate the risk of loss, the company only transacts with highly reputable financial institutions. 8.

16. TAXATION Major components of the tax expenses No provision has been made for taxation as the company is exempt from income tax under section 10 (i) (f) of the Income Tax Act. 17. CONTINGENT LIABILITY In terms of a premature termination of the agreement relating to the delivering of bulk earthworks and infrastructure development, the company has a possible obligation to pay the counterparty for damages arising from such a termination of the agreement. The possible obligation will only be confirmed by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events which is not wholly within the control of the company. The uncertain future events relate to the limitation to project funding restrictions presently in place and if a contract instruction can be given, with the view to re-establishing site and commencing with the work The possible liability would be calculated based on loss of income, loss of profits, direct cost incurred related to resources, plant and general expenses. There is no possibility of any reimbursement once the company has settled the obligation. For more information, refer note 18. 18. CAPITAL COMMITMENT A contract for the CAV landside Bulk Earth Works and Infrastructure (BEWI) Phase 1a was awarded to Jodan Rekopane JV in 2010/11 financial year for an original sum of R60,574,278 (Excl VAT). An amount of R10,453,398 (Excl VAT) was then disbursed in line with the contract. However, the contract was put on hold in 2011. An amount of R1, 950,459 was subsequently impaired.

23. CHANGE IN ESTIMATES In terms of the requirements of IAS 16, the depreciation methods, estimated remaining useful lives and residual values are reviewed at least annually. The assessment of useful life required judgement based on previous experience with similar assets or classes of assets. Management used its judgement on the depreciation methods and useful lives. The following factors were considered in this regard: • Expected physical wear and tear • Obsolescence • Legal or other limits on the use of the assets Management estimated the useful lives of computer equipment to be between 2 - 3 years due to the high-end specification and durability of the computer equipment. 24.

25. COVID-19 IMPACT ON GOING CONCERN WITHOUT MATERIAL UNCERTAINTIES COVID-19 is not expected to have a significant impact on the entity. Management has determined that there is no material uncertainty that casts doubt on the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. It expects that COVID-19 might have some marginal impact, though not significant, for example, in relation to expected future performance, or the effects on some tenants relocating or starting a new business in CAV. 26. RISK MANAGEMENT Financial risk management The company’s approach to risk management is based on risk governance structures, risk management policies, risk identification, measurement, reporting, monitoring, and continuous assessment. The company is exposed to various financial risks due to the nature and diversity of its activities and the use of various financial instruments. These risks include: • Interest rate risk • Liquidity risk • Credit risk Information about the company’s exposure to each of the above risks, its objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing these risks are included in this note. Further quantitative disclosures are included throughout the annual financial statements. The Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the company’s risk management framework. Interest rate risk Interest rate risk arises due to adverse movements in domestic and foreign interest rates. The Company invested its funds in an interest-bearing account. The company does not depend on the interest for its liquidity. Its income and operating cash flows are substantially independent of changes in market interest rates. Cash flow interest rate risk

At 31 March 2022, if interest rates on Rand-denominated borrowings had been 1% higher/lower with all other variables held constant, surplus for the year would have been R709,670 (2021: R672,076) lower/higher, mainly as a result of higher/lower interest income on floating rate borrowings. Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the company is unable to meet its payment obligations when they fall due and to replace funds when they are withdrawn, the failure of which may be the failure to meet obligations as they fall due. Funding risk arises when the necessary liquidity to fund liquid asset positions, such as building infrastructure facilities and buildings for the park, cannot be obtained at the expected terms and when required. The objective of the Company’s liquidity and funding management is to ensure that all foreseeable operational, capital expansion and loan commitment expenditure can be met under both normal and stressed conditions. The company has adopted an overall statement of financial position approach, which consolidates all sources and uses of liquidity, while aiming to maintain a balance between liquidity, profitability and interest rate considerations. The company’s risk to liquidity is a result of the funds available to cover future commitments. The company manages liquidity risk through an on-going review of future commitments and credit facilities. Cash flow forecasts are prepared, and adequate utilised borrowing facilities are monitored. Exposure to liquidity risk The following are the contractual maturities of financial liabilities, including interest payments and excluding the impact of netting agreements: Contractual undiscounted cash flows At 31 March 2022 Trade and other payables Total Contractual undiscounted cash flows At 31 March 2021 Trade and other payables Total

26. RISK ASSESSMENT (CONTINUED) Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the company should any of the customers or counterparties (including government) to a financial instrument fail to meet their contractual obligations. This risk arises principally from the entity’s receivables from customers (loans receivable, trade and sundry receivables) The company only deposits its cash surpluses with major banks with high credit standing and limits exposure to any one counter party. The Board of Directors has an established policy for the management of credit risk arising on receivables from customers. Under this policy the creditworthiness of potential and existing customers is assessed prior to contracting with new or existing customers. On-going credit evaluation of the company is performed. The granting of credit is approved by the directors. At year end, the company did not consider there to be any significant concentration of credit risk which has not been adequately provided for. Credit exposure and concentration of credit risk The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure at the reporting date.
