Strategic overview and business transformation

• Strategy refresh emphasizes diversification, simplification, performance excellence, and disciplined capital allocation for long-term value creation in a dynamic macro environment.

• Four strategic priorities: portfolio simplification, performance excellence, resource optimization, and embedding sustainability, with growth anchored in returns.

• South Africa remains the foundation, with 80% of business and a world-class, long-life PGM asset base, driving core earnings and value.

• Market outlook: Gold prices supported by inflation and central bank reserves; PGM and chrome prices have a positive medium-term outlook.

• Capital allocation is prioritized towards brownfields projects within existing assets, seen as offering the best returns.

PGM operations and chrome strategy

• PGM portfolio is among the most flexible and valuable globally, with 70 km of contiguous strike and reserves supporting 32–45 years of production at Rustenburg and Marikana.

• Brownfields projects (Siphumelele, Thembelani, East 4, Kopaneng, East 3, Saffy, Bathopele) are prioritized for low-risk, high-return growth, leveraging existing infrastructure and targeting ~1.5Moz underground production.

• K4 shaft project is 77% complete, targeting steady-state by 2033 with a 48-year economic life and NPV of R17.6bn.

• Chrome is a growing value driver, with production expected to rise from 1 million tons in 2016 to over 4.5 million tons, contributing 8% of SA PGM revenue in 2025 and targeting a top-5 global position.

• Chrome management agreement with Glencore provides flexibility and early value realization, with new projects excluded from legacy contracts.

Gold operations and transition

• Gold assets remain cash generative but are in decline; focus is shifting to shallower, higher-margin, lower-risk operations like Burnstone and DRDGOLD.

• Burnstone project, with a projected NPV of R19.2bn and IRR of 36.1%, is positioned as a key future growth asset, pending board approval.

• DRDGOLD continues to deliver strong returns through surface retreatment, with Vision 2028 targeting 3Mtpm throughput and 200,000oz annual gold output by 2028.

• Legacy deep-level gold assets (Driefontein, Kloof, Beatrix) extended to 2036, still generating value but facing natural depletion.

• Capital allocation to gold is weighed against PGM opportunities, with a focus on maximizing returns and maintaining portfolio balance.
