Tetrad Holdings limited recorded an after-tax loss in the first six months ending March 31 weighed down by a $564 778 loss by Tetrad Investment Bank.
Revenues during the period under review increased by 63% to $4,6 million from $2,8 million last year for the half- year ended March 31, despite renewed mild-inflationary pressures emanating from the strengthening of the South African rand and fuel price increases.
Total assets for the group stood at $100 million up from $70 million last year.
The group’s after-tax loss was $306 356 compared to a loss after taxation of $431 196 during the same period last year.
In a statement accompanying the group’s financial results, Tetrad said: “Economic stability remained anchored on the continued use of multi-currencies, a liberalised-economic environment and fiscal prudence exercised by the government.
“Most macro-economic indicators remained relatively conducive for business during the period under review despite the liquidity challenges.”
Other subsidiaries of TSF Management Company, Tetrad properties, Tetrad Hail Insurance and Multi-ridge finance posted profits during the period. The company said the gold fund has so far exceeded the $1 million mark and is expected to grow further this year.
Tetrad Holdings runs the gold fund through its subsidiary TSF Management company.
