DISTRIBUTION OF NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING AND SUMMARISED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS; CHANGE STATEMENT
Shareholders of the Company (“Shareholders”) are hereby advised that the Company’s
summarised audited consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended 31 March
2018 (“Summarised Financial Statements”) incorporating the notice of the annual general
meeting of the Company (“AGM”) (“Abridged Report”) was dispatched to Shareholders
today, 30 July 2018.
The following reports will also be available on the Company’s website, www.hplr.co.za, as
from today, 30 July 2018:
1. the Abridged Report, incorporating the Summarised Financial Statements
(http://www.hplr.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/HPLR-2018-NOTICE-OF-AGM.pdf);
2. the Company’s full integrated annual report (http://www.hplr.co.za/wp-
content/uploads/2018/07/HPLR-2018-INTEGRATED-ANNUAL-REPORT.pdf); and
3. the full audited consolidated annual financial statements of HPLR for the year ended
31 March 2018 (“Annual Financial Statements”) (http://www.hplr.co.za/wp-
content/uploads/2018/07/HPLR-2018-ANNUAL-FINANCIAL-STATEMENTS.pdf).
The Summarised Financial Statements and the Annual Financial Statements contain no
modifications to the reviewed provisional condensed consolidated results (“Provisional
Financial Statements”) which were published on SENS on 23 May 2018, save for the below
adjustments arising from:
1. a reclassification between provisions and trade and other payables;
2. a re-allocation between certain line items forming part of the cash flow statement; and
3. a reclassification of a portion of dividends from retained income to share capital.
The above adjustments had no impact on the Company’s previously reported financial
position, profitability or cash and cash equivalents available at either the beginning or the end
of the year. The adjustments are set out in more detail below.
In line with the requirements of IAS 19, leave pay accrual has been reclassified from
provisions to trade and other payables resulting in a decrease in provisions of R22.1m (2017:
R19.5m) and an increase in trade and other payables by R22.1m (2017: R19.5m) in the
Summarised Financial Statements and Annual Financial Statements when compared to the
Provisional Financial Statements. This adjustment has had no impact on current liabilities
reflected in the statement of financial position.
The Summarised Financial Statements and Annual Financial Statements include corrections
between funding raised, funding repaid and property, plant and equipment additions reflected
in the cash flow statement. These corrections relate to reclassifications and the net effect of
these cash flows remains unchanged from the net effect reflected in the Provisional Financial
Statements. Cash outflows from property, plant and equipment additions decreased by
R155.9m (2017: R170.4m) and cash outflows from net funding repaid increased by R155.9m
(2017: 170.4m).
Additional reclassifications were made to the cash flow statement between line items within
cash flows from operating activities, resulting in:
• cash generated by operations decreasing by R8.7m (2017: R1.0m);
• cash flows from investment income increasing by R6.2m (2017: R0); and
• cash flows from changes in working capital increasing by R2.5m (2017: R1.0m).
These reclassifications have had a total nil effect to the cash flows from operating activities
reflected in the Provisional Financial Statements.
In addition to the above, a reclassification was made between cash flows from operating
activities and cash flows from financing activities. Cash flows from operating activities, as
reflected in the Summarised Financial Statements and Annual Financial Statements,
increased by R649.8m (2017: R0) and cash flows from financing activities decreased by
R649.8m (2017: R0) when compared to the Provisional Financial Statements. The change is
due to:
• the reclassification of R649.8m dividends as distribution to shareholders and reflected
as cash flows from financing activities in the Summarised Financial Statements and
Annual Financial Statements. This reclassification was to reflect this distribution to
shareholders as a distribution from share capital and not from retained income as
reflected in the Company’s pre-listing statement dated 15 March 2018.
It is noted that the net cash movement in the cash flow statement remains unchanged from
the Provisional Financial Statements previously published.
