CONDENSED UNREVIEWED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED 30 JUNE 2025

             million in the prior corresponding period.

      •      Net foreign exchange gains of R1 324 million due to the strengthening of the Rand

 2.       RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED INTERIM FINANCIAL RESULTS

          Shareholders are advised that the Company has restated its previously published
          condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the period ended 30 June
          2024.

          The restatement arises from an error identified in the measurement of the mine
          closure and rehabilitation provision in that, an inflation-linked bond yield was
          incorrectly applied in discounting the estimated future rehabilitation cash flows,
          whereas a fixed-rate bond yield should have been used.

          Management acknowledges that the impact of this restatement is below the
          materiality threshold; however, the adjustment has been made in the interest of
          prudence.

          Full details of the restatement are included in Note 20 of the interim financial
          statements released on SENS and available on the Company's website.


 3.       OUTLOOK

          Following the cyber-attack which had a significant impact on the availability of
          Groups' financial reporting systems, an independent firm was engaged to recover
          lost data, and an interim accounting software solution was implemented.

          Furthermore, the Group undertook a re-audit of the 2024 annual financial statements
          to address the external auditor's disclaimers, the re audit process is nearing
          completion, with no material differences identified to date. This progress supports the
          Group's continued commitment to strengthen the integrity and reliability of its financial
          reporting.

          In the interest of further enhancing internal controls, the Board has approved the
          implementation of SAP S/4 Hana ERP system, with the project on track for go-live at
          the beginning of June 2026.

          The Group remains on schedule to publish the audited annual financial statements
          for the year ended 31 December 2025, by no later than 30 April 2026 in accordance
          with original audit plan. Upon completion of the audit, the Group will proceed with the
          necessary steps to apply for the lifting of the suspension of trading in its shares.

          In light of the restatement, the Board has advised management to regularly attend
          IFRS refresher training to further strengthen financial reporting expertise going
          forward.
