Financial results
Salungano Group's performance during the first half of FY2026 improved significantly from the
comparative period as the Moabsvelden mine's ROM production increased by 44% to 2.3 million tonnes
and Vanggatfontein restarted and produced 0.8 million tonnes.
The Group continued to operate with only the Moabsvelden Eskom contract, with the Vanggatfontein
Colliery continuing to supply Eskom through rectification into the Neosho contract. Vanggatfontein
Colliery was subsequently awarded its own Eskom contract in October 2025. Rectification tonnes
increased to 2.0 million tonnes (HY25: 1.4 million tonnes).
Total sales volumes increased 34% to 4.2 million tonnes (HY25: 3.2 million tonnes) resulting in a 39%
increase in revenue to R3.0 billion (HY25: R2.2 billion). Gross profit increased to R422 million (HY25:
R300 million) as a result of higher production and sales at a gross profit margin of 13.9% (HY25: 13.8%).
The Group made an operating profit of R328 million compared to R183 million in the comparative period.
EBITDA of R511 million was achieved against a comparative EBITDA of R272
million.
Financed costs amounted to R133 million (HY25: R129 million) which is the interest costs on interest-
bearing borrowings and the unwinding of the discount on the rehabilitation obligations.
The improvement in operational performance resulted in a headline profit of 38.48 cents per share
(HY25: 21.56 cents).
