Anglo American Interim Results for the Six Months ended 30 June 2025 and Notice of Dividend
Copper and iron ore lead strong operational and cost performance
• Portfolio simplification: successful demerger of Valterra Platinum unlocked significant value for shareholders;
steelmaking coal and nickel sales agreed; and De Beers in process
• Strong production and cost performance: EBITDA margins of 48% in copper and 44% in premium iron ore
• Underlying EBITDA* of $3.0 billion from continuing operations, reflecting challenging rough diamond trading
conditions
• On track to deliver committed $1.8 billion of cost savings: $1.3 billion realised by the end of June 2025
• Strong cash conversion* at 108%, with further reductions in working capital delivered
• Net debt* of $10.8 billion, prior to receipt of majority of portfolio simplification proceeds
• $0.1 billion interim dividend, equal to $0.07 per share, consistent with our 40% payout policy, reflecting negative
earnings from discontinued operations and lack of contribution from De Beers
• Basic headline earnings per share of $0.23 compared to $0.73 in the prior comparative year
Note: Continuing operations includes Anglo American's future portfolio and De Beers, per accounting requirements; discontinued operations
includes the Platinum, Steelmaking Coal and Nickel businesses.
Duncan Wanblad, CEO of Anglo American, said: "We are delivering on our strategy, transforming Anglo American
into a higher margin, more cash generative and more valuable mining company. By focusing on our exceptional
copper, premium iron ore and crop nutrients resource endowments, each with significant value-accretive growth
options, we are unlocking material value for our shareholders by delivering the see-through value of our portfolio, in
which we expect copper to account for more than 60% of EBITDA.
"Safety is our number one value and always our first priority. We continue to make progress towards our goal of zero
harm, with a further major improvement in the first half on what was our lowest-ever injury rate in 2024. I am, though,
sorry to report the loss of two colleagues following accidents in Brazil and Zimbabwe. We are unconditional in our
commitment to safety and we extend our heartfelt condolences to their families, friends and colleagues.
"I am delighted that the first half saw our continued strong operational and cost performance in copper and iron ore,
coupled with further momentum towards our committed $1.8 billion of cost savings. Group underlying EBITDA of
$3.0 billion from continuing operations reflects this focus on cost discipline, despite the challenging rough diamond
market conditions. While 2025 is very much a year of transition, we maintained a strong EBITDA margin for our go-
forward business at 43% (consistent with the prior period, on a pro forma basis(1)), compared with our current overall
margin position of 32% from continuing operations (2024: 37%).
"We have made further good progress towards our simplified portfolio. In May, we completed the demerger of the
majority of our interest in Valterra Platinum to our shareholders and we expect to monetise our residual 19.9%
interest – currently valued at $2.6 billion – responsibly over time. We are also continuing to progress the agreed
steelmaking coal and nickel business sale transactions. We expect a material strengthening of our balance sheet
flexibility upon receipt of proceeds from these transactions. The work to separate De Beers is well under way, with
action taken to strengthen cash flow as we position De Beers for long-term success and value realisation.
"Our clear and decisive actions are transforming Anglo American into a highly attractive and differentiated value
proposition for the long term, offering strong cash generation to support sustainable shareholder returns combined
with the capabilities and longstanding relationship networks to deliver our full value and growth potential."

2. Dividend Tax will be withheld from the amount of the gross dividend of 125.01720 Rand cents per ordinary share paid to South African shareholders at the rate

Anglo American plc had a total of 1,178,050,272 ordinary shares in issue as at Wednesday, 30 July 2025. In South Africa the dividend will be distributed by
Anglo American South Africa Proprietary Limited, a South African company with tax registration number 9030010608, or one of its South African subsidiaries, in
