1
    Primarily comprises a release to the income statement relating to
    the disposal of the group’s 60% controlling interest in Standard
    Bank Plc (SB Plc) on 1 February 2015.
2
    Included in earnings attributable to ordinary shareholders is
    approximately R3.1 billion of earnings excluded from headline
    earnings, the majority of which relates to the disposal of the
    group’s 60% controlling interest in SB Plc. This primarily
    comprises the release of R4.1 billion of the group’s FCTR to the
    income statement, which relates to historical foreign currency
    translation gains recognised on SB Plc’s net asset value, less the
    recognition of the remaining unrecognised loss on the disposal.
3
    Primarily comprises the ordinary dividends declared in March 2015.
4
    The reduction of the negative empowerment reserve is primarily due
    to the repayment of funding by Tutuwa participants following the
    expiry of the lock-in period on 31 December 2014.
