Going concern assumption The board of directors (board) has made an assessment of the ability of Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd (Eskom) and the group to continue as a going concern in the foreseeable future. The board reviewed the group’s performance for the period ended 30 September 2015 and the cash flow forecast for the Multi-Year Price Determination (MYPD) 3 period ending 31 March 2018. Eskom submitted the Regulatory Clearing Account (RCA) adjustment application for year 1 of MYPD 3 (2014 financial year) and is preparing for the application for year 2 of MYPD 3 (2015 financial year). The board continues to critically examine the group’s activities and costs in order to balance its cash flow requirements. There is a focus through the Business Productivity Programme (BPP) to identify cost saving and efficiency opportunities together with a pursuit of alternative funding options. The board resolved that Eskom’s financial sustainability, liquidity and status as a going concern will not be compromised in support of operational sustainability and balancing supply and demand and has not approved any generating capital expenditure beyond the Kusile project. In assessing the ability to raise funds, the current economic climate as well as Eskom’s and the sovereign’s credit ratings have been taken into account. Based on the above, the board is satisfied that Eskom and the group have access to adequate resources and facilities to be able to continue operations for the foreseeable future. Accordingly the board has continued to adopt the going-concern basis in preparing the interim financial statements. In the opinion of the board, based on the information available to date, the condensed group interim financial statements fairly present the financial position of the group at 30 September 2015 and the results of the operations and cash flow information for the six months then ended. The condensed group interim financial statements have been approved by the board and signed on its behalf by: B Ngubane B Molefe A Singh Chairman Group chief executive Chief financial officer 18 November 2015 18 November 2015 18 November 2015 2 Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd Independent auditors’ review report on the condensed group interim financial statements to the Minister of Public Enterprises Introduction We have reviewed the accompanying condensed group interim financial statements of Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd set out on pages 4 to 23, which comprise the condensed group statement of financial position as at 30 September 2015, the condensed group income statement, statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the six months then ended and selected explanatory notes. The board’s responsibility for the financial statements The board is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these condensed group interim financial statements in accordance with the recognition and measurement requirements of IFRS, the presentation and disclosure requirements of IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, the requirements of the Companies Act and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of interim financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors’ responsibility for the financial statements Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these condensed group interim financial statements based on our review. Scope of review We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review of the condensed group interim financial statements consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters which might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion. Conclusion Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed group interim financial statements of Eskom for the six months ended 30 September 2015, are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the recognition and measurement requirements of IFRS, the presentation and disclosure requirements of IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and the requirements of the Companies Act.

Reviewed condensed group interim financial statements | 30 September 2015 7 Selected notes to the condensed group interim financial statements for the six months ended 30 September 2015 1. General information Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd (Eskom), a state-owned company and holding company of the group, is incorporated and domiciled in the Republic of South Africa. Eskom is a vertically integrated operation that generates, transmits and distributes electricity to industrial, mining, commercial, agricultural, redistributor (municipalities), and residential customers and to international customers in southern Africa. 2. Basis of preparation The reviewed condensed group interim financial statements of Eskom as at and for the six months ended 30 September 2015 comprise the company, its subsidiaries, joint ventures, associates and structured entities (together, the group). The reviewed condensed group interim financial statements do not include all of the information required for full financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd 31 March 2015 group annual financial statements. The annual financial statements of the group as at and for the year ended 31 March 2015 are available for inspection at the company’s registered office and on the Eskom website at www.eskom.co.za. The condensed group interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with the recognition and measurement requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), the presentation and disclosure requirements of IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, and in the manner required by the Companies Act. The condensed group interim financial statements are prepared on the historical-cost basis except for the following items which are measured at fair value: • investment in securities • derivatives held for risk management • financial trading assets • financial trading liabilities • embedded derivatives • non-current assets and liabilities held-for-sale The board’s assessment of the ability of Eskom and the group to continue as a going concern in the foreseeable future included: • a review of the group’s performance for the six months ended 30 September 2015 • a review of the cash flow forecasts for the MYPD 3 period ending 31 March 2018. These forecasts take into account Eskom’s regulatory options available, its ability to raise funds, the current and anticipated future economic climate and the credit rating of Eskom and the sovereign. The board continues to critically examine the group’s activities and costs in order to balance its cash flow requirements. There is a focus through the BPP to identify cost saving and efficiency opportunities together with a pursuit of alternative funding options. The board has resolved that Eskom’s financial sustainability, liquidity and status as a going concern will not be compromised in support of operational sustainability and balancing supply and demand and has not approved any generating capital expenditure beyond the Kusile project. Based on the above, the directors are satisfied that Eskom and the group have access to adequate resources and facilities to be able to continue operations for the foreseeable future. Accordingly the board has continued to adopt the going-concern basis in preparing the interim financial statements. 3. Significant accounting policies The accounting policies applied by the group in these condensed group interim financial statements are consistent with those applied in the audited financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 March 2015 except for the new or revised statements and interpretations adopted during the six months ended 30 September 2015. The impact of these changes has been assessed to be immaterial for the group. The nature of these changes is as follows: Annual improvements 2012 (effective 1 July 2014) The improvements amend standards from the 2010–2012 reporting cycle. The changes affect IFRS 2 Share based payments, IFRS 3 Business combinations, IFRS 8 Operating segments, IFRS 13 Fair value measurement, IAS 16 Property, plant and equipment and IAS 24 Related party disclosures. Annual improvements 2013 (effective 1 July 2014) The improvements amend standards from the 2011–2013 reporting cycle. The changes affect IFRS 1 First time adoptions of IFRSs, IFRS 3 Business combinations, IFRS 13 Fair value measurement and IAS 40 Investment property. Amendment to IAS 19 Employee benefits regarding employee or third party contributions to defined benefit plans (effective 1 July 2014) The amendment applies to contributions from employees or third parties to defined benefit plans and clarifies the treatment of such contributions. The objective of the amendment is to simplify the accounting for contributions that are independent of the number of years of employee service. 8 Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd 4. Critical accounting estimates and judgements Estimates and judgements are evaluated continually and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The group makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The significant estimates and judgements made by management in applying the accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were substantially the same as those applied to the financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 March 2015 except for embedded derivatives and coal-related obligations as detailed below. Embedded derivatives The forward electricity price used to value the embedded derivatives at 30 September 2015 is based on the NERSA MYPD 3 tariff increase of 8% for the period 2016/17 and 2017/18, whereafter a forecast return on the regulatory asset base is used until maturity. Another key estimate in the valuation of embedded derivatives includes the forecast United States (US) production price index (PPI) which is based on an internal model which simulates US PPI using other observable market prices such as the South African consumer price index and ZAR/USD forward exchange rates. The contracted electricity price used to value embedded derivatives is based on a combination of the factors in the table below over the contracted period. Forecast sales volumes are based on the most likely future sales volumes based on past trends and taking into account future production plans in consultation with industry specific experts and key customer executives. The fair value of embedded derivatives takes into account the inherent uncertainty relating to the future cash flows of embedded derivatives, such as liquidity, model risk and other economic factors. The following valuation assumptions for the future electricity price curve discussed above for the valuation of embedded derivatives were used and are regarded as the best estimates by management: Period ended 30 September 2015 (reviewed) Input Unit 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 Aluminium USD per ton 1 551 1 588 1 655 1 725 1 796 1 864 Volatility Year-on-year (ratio) 0.19 0.19 0.19 0.19 0.19 0.19 Rand interest rate Continuous actual/365 days (%) 6.06 7.26 7.06 7.38 7.62 7.83 Dollar interest rate Annual actual/365 days (%) 0.24 0.97 0.75 0.99 1.21 1.40 United States PPI Year-on-year (%) (5.30) 2.18 2.01 1.51 2.23 2.36 Rand/USD USD per rand 13.87 14.31 15.25 16.26 17.35 19.76 Period ended 31 March 2015 (audited) Input Unit 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 Aluminium USD per ton 1 792 1 826 1 883 1 940 1 985 2 035 Volatility Year-on-year (ratio) 0.19 0.19 0.19 0.19 0.19 0.19 Rand interest rate Continuous actual/365 days (%) 5.61 7.16 6.70 6.93 7.09 7.24 Dollar interest rate Annual actual/365 days (%) 0.09 0.92 0.81 1.13 1.38 1.57 United States PPI Year-on-year (%) (4.98) 2.11 1.87 2.01 1.90 2.33 Rand/USD USD per rand 12.50 12.50 14.29 14.29 14.29 16.67 Period ended 30 September 2014 (reviewed) Input Unit 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 Aluminium USD per ton 1 930 2 003 2 042 2 086 2 134 2 189 Volatility Year-on-year (ratio) 0.19 0.19 0.19 0.19 0.19 0.19 Rand interest rate Continuous actual/365 days (%) 5.79 7.12 6.91 7.20 7.46 7.68 Dollar interest rate Annual actual/365 days (%) 0.17 0.73 0.82 1.31 1.69 1.96 United States PPI Year-on-year (%) 2.60 2.31 2.23 2.01 2.61 1.89 Rand/USD USD per rand 11.11 12.50 12.50 14.29 14.29 14.29 Coal-related obligations The discount rate used for these provisions was 7.6% (31 March 2015: 4.7%; 30 September 2014: 5.0%) for the group and company.

Issuances, repurchases and repayments of debt securities and borrowings and share capital 6.1 Debt securities and borrowings The nature of the group’s issuances, repurchases and repayments of debt securities and borrowings are consistent with those reported previously, except for the conversion of the subordinated loan from the shareholder to equity that resulted in the derecognition of the liability portion of the compound instrument. The debt raised and repaid by the group is disclosed in the statement of cash flows. 6.2 Share capital Eskom converted its existing authorised share capital to no par value shares and increased the number of authorised shares from 1 000 to 100 billion ordinary shares. During the period the shareholder approved the conversion of the subordinated loan from the shareholder to share capital. The conversion resulted in the derecognition of the equity portion of the compound instrument and the issue of 60 billion shares to the shareholder. Eskom also received R10 billion of the government equity injection of R23 billion during the period for which 10 billion shares were issued to government.

Significant events and transactions 8.1 Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment increased by R28 billion (after depreciation) during the six months ended 30 September 2015. The increase relates mainly to the costs incurred on the capital expansion programme. 8.2 Derivatives held for risk management Derivatives held for risk management increased by R18 billion during the six months ended 30 September 2015. This increase is largely due to the deterioration of the rand against the euro and United States dollar and new cross currency swaps taken out to hedge foreign debt securities and borrowings. 8.3 Changes in board and executive committee The acting appointments of the chairman (B Ngubane), group chief executive (B Molefe) and chief financial officer (A Singh) were made permanent effective from 25 September 2015. 9. Seasonality of interim results The sale of electricity is subject to seasonal fluctuations where revenue is normally higher during the first six months of the financial year (winter months) as compared to the summer months, both in terms of tariff energy charges and peak demand. 12 Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd Reviewed Reviewed Audited six months six months year ended ended ended 30 September 30 September 31 March 2015 2014 2015 Rm Rm Rm 10.

Income tax Income tax for the interim period is recognised based on management’s best estimate of the weighted average annual income tax rate expected for the full financial year which is applied to the pre-tax income of the interim period. The 9.7% difference between the effective and standard tax rate is mainly due to the reversal of the deferred tax associated with the derecognition of the subordinated loan from the shareholder. 15. Fair value classification and measurement 15.1 Accounting classification and fair value Valuation processes The group has a controlled framework with respect to the measurement of fair values. The framework includes a valuation team that reports to the chief financial officer, and has overall responsibility for all significant fair value measurements. The valuation team regularly reviews significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments. If third party information, such as broker quotes or pricing services, is used to measure fair value, then the valuation team assesses and documents the evidence obtained from the third parties to support their conclusion that such valuations meet the requirements of IFRS, including the level in the fair value hierarchy that the resulting fair value estimate should be classified to. Principal markets The group is involved in various principal markets because of the unique funding activities undertaken. The fair value is determined by each participant in the different principal markets. The principal markets are: • capital and money markets • development financing institutions • export credit agencies Reviewed condensed group interim financial statements | 30 September 2015 13 Selected notes to the condensed group interim financial statements (continued) for the six months ended 30 September 2015 15.

The fair values of these financial instruments approximate their carrying amounts. The effect of discounting is not expected to be material. 16 Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd 15.2 Fair value hierarchy There has been no change in the valuation technique applied. The hierarchy levels are defined as follows: Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (as prices) or indirectly (derived from prices). Level 3: Inputs for the financial asset or financial liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). The group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the transfer has occurred. Eskom’s policy for determining when transfers between levels in the hierarchy have occurred includes monitoring of the following factors: • Changes in market and trading activity (eg significant increases/decreases in activity) • Changes in inputs used in valuation techniques (eg inputs becoming/ceasing to be observable in the market) There were no transfers between level 1, 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the six months ended 30 September 2015 nor in the comparative periods presented. The valuation techniques used are as follows: Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the reporting date. A market is regarded as active when it is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the group is the current bid price and for financial liabilities the current ask price is used. Instruments included in level 1 comprise listed investments classified as trading securities or available-for-sale. Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable Level 2 fair values for debt securities and borrowings are determined using a discounted cash flow technique, which uses expected cash flows and a market-related discount rate. Level 2 fair values for simple over-the-counter derivative financial instruments are based on broker quotes. These quotes are tested for reasonableness by discounting expected future cash flows using a market interest rate for a similar instrument at the measurement date. Fair values reflect the credit risk of the instruments and include adjustments for the credit risk of the group entity and counterparty where appropriate. The fair values are obtained from listed bond yields or using a discounted cash flow model for unlisted instruments. The future cash flows are discounted using a zero curve, which is adjusted to reflect the credit value adjustment (CVA) and debit value adjustment (DVA) that are constructed from money market and swap rates. Eskom applies a non-contingent bilateral CVA/ DVA approach in the valuation of cross-currency swaps. Level 3: Inputs not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs) Level 3 items are fair valued using unobservable inputs.

The forecast cash flow is determined and then discounted at the relevant interest rate curve. The net present value of the cash flows is then converted to the reporting currency at the spot rand/USD exchange rate. The fair value of the embedded derivative is adjusted, where applicable, to take into account the inherent uncertainty relating to the future cash flows of embedded derivatives such as liquidity, model risk and other economic factors. The important assumptions are obtained either with reference to the contractual provisions of the relevant contracts or from independent market sources where appropriate. These assumptions are: • spot and forward commodity prices • spot and forward rand/USD exchange rates • spot and forward interest rates • forecast sales volumes • spot and forward consumer and foreign production prices indices • liquidity, model risk and other economic factors 20 Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd Embedded derivatives that are not separated are effectively accounted for as part of the hybrid instrument. Non-option based derivatives are separated on terms that result in a fair value at the date of inception of zero. Option-based derivatives are separated on the terms stated in the contracts and will not necessarily have a fair value equal to zero at the initial recognition of the embedded derivative resulting in day-one gains or losses. These day-one gains or losses are recognised over the period of the agreement. The fair value will depend on the strike price at inception. The only significant unobservable input is the US PPI. Sensitivity analysis The approximate change in the value of embedded derivatives if one of the inputs is changed is disclosed below. The analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant and the possible impact on profit or loss is: Reviewed Audited Reviewed 30 September 2015 31 March 2015 30 September 2014 increase decrease increase decrease increase decrease Unit change Rm Rm Rm Rm Rm Rm Aluminium price 1% 97 (97) 104 (104) 112 (112) Rand interest rate 100 basis points 573 (615) 659 (709) 747 (807) Dollar interest rate 100 basis points (395) 410 (436) 451 (502) 520 Electricity tariffs 1% (400) 392 (568) 553 (708) 684 United States PPI 1% 162 (161) 152 (153) 187 (189) Rand/USD 1% 120 (116) 127 (123) 134 (139) 15.3 Day-one gain/(loss) The group recognises a day-one gain/(loss) on initial recognition of cross-currency, credit default and interest rate swaps held as hedging instruments where applicable.

Restatement of comparatives At 31 March 2015 the following restatements were made in the financial statements and as a result the September 2014 income statement and cash flows were restated accordingly. Reclassification of revenue and other income The main business activity of the Eskom group is the generation, transmission and distribution of electricity. The business activities of the subsidiaries while different are to support the electricity business. To improve the relevance of information presented the revenue earned by subsidiaries has been presented as other income (excluding EFC) and finance income (EFC) to only reflect revenue from the main business activity as revenue. Other income has been reallocated as it is more appropriate to present it with the related expenses. Reclassification of statements of cash flows An overall review of the nature and classification of cash flows in the statements of cash flows was undertaken to better reflect the nature of cash flow items. This was considered relevant as a consequence of the group’s changing operational environment and circumstances, including the material increases in debt financing and capital investment. This resulted in revised classifications for some cash flow streams which better reflect their nature. Cash flow classification is dependent upon the specific circumstances of the entity for which they are being presented at a point in time and as such is reviewed where the circumstances of the entity change. The revised classifications provide the user with a better reflection of the source and destination of cash balances acquired and used within the business. The impact of the restatements for the period ended 30 September 2014 is as follows: Previously Adjustments Restated reported Rm Rm Rm Income statement Continuing operations Revenue 81 898 (580) 81 318 Other income 452 190 642 Primary energy (38 065) – (38 065) Employee benefit expense (13 176) – (13 176) Depreciation and amortisation expense (6 672) – (6 672) Net impairment loss (855) – (855) Other expenses (7 841) – (7 841) Profit before net fair value gain and net finance cost 15 741 (390) 15 351 Net fair value gain on financial instruments 761 – 761 Profit before net finance cost 16 502 (390) 16 112 Net finance cost (3 539) 390 (3 149) Finance income 1 157 390 1 547 Finance cost (4 696) – (4 696) Share of profit of equity-accounted investees after tax 33 – 33 Profit before tax 12 996 – 12 996 Income tax (3 675) – (3 675) Profit for the period from continuing operations 9 321 – 9 321 Discontinued operations Loss for the period from discontinued operations (34) – (34) Profit for the period 9 287 – 9 287 22 Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd Previously Adjustments Restated reported Rm Rm Rm Cash flow statement Cash flows from operating activities Profit before tax 12 996 – 12 996 Adjustment for non-cash items 14 081 (348) 13 733 Changes in working capital (7 729) 1 037 (6 692) Cash generated from operations 19 348 689 20 037 Net cash flows from financial trading assets 2 273 (2 273) – Net cash flows used in financial trading liabilities (3 005) 3 005 – Net cash flows (used in)/from derivatives held for risk management (345) 505 160 Net cash flows used in non-current assets held-for-sale (64) 64 – Interest received – 276 276 Interest paid – (4) (4) Income taxes paid (101) – (101) Net cash from operating activities 18 106 2 262 20 368 Cash flows used in investing activities Proceeds from disposal of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets 50 – 50 Acquisitions of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets (24 193) – (24 193) Expenditure on future fuel supplies (1 256) – (1 256) Net cash flows used in investment in securities and financial trading assets – (1 118) (1 118) Increase in payments made in advance – (579) (579) Expenditure incurred on provisions – (447) (447) Net cash flows from derivatives held for risk management – 493 493 Interest received – 466 466 Other cash flows from investing activities 115 (29) 86 Net cash used in investing activities (25 284) (1 214) (26 498) Cash flows from financing activities Debt securities and borrowings raised 13 369 – 13 369 Payments made in advance to secure balances raised – (88) (88) Debt securities and borrowings repaid (8 445) 364 (8 081) Net cash flows from/(used in) derivatives held for risk management – 54 54 Decrease in finance lease payables (6) – (6) Decrease in investment in securities and financial trading assets and liabilities 1 111 386 1 497 Interest received 1 204 (352) 852 Interest paid (6 795) (1 427) (8 222) Net cash from/(used in) financing activities 438 (1 063) (625) Net decrease in cash and cash equivalents (6 740) (15) (6 755) Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of the period 19 676 – 19 676 Foreign currency translation 17 – 17 Effect of movements in exchange rates on cash held – 15 15 Cash and cash equivalents at end of the period 12 953 – 12 953 Reviewed condensed group interim financial statements | 30 September 2015 23 Selected notes to the condensed group interim financial statements (continued) for the six months ended 30 September 2015 18. Pro-forma revaluation of property, plant and equipment (not reviewed) The group currently accounts for its property, plant and equipment using the cost model under IAS 16 Property, plant and equipment. The cost model requires that property, plant and equipment should be measured at cost (including borrowing cost capitalised in respect of qualifying assets), less accumulated depreciation and impairment. However, the cost model does not reflect the true economic value of the group’s property, plant and equipment and the basis on which Eskom’s tariff is calculated by NERSA. Therefore, a summary has been provided below reflecting what the impact on the condensed group interim financial statements would be if the group’s property, plant and equipment was measured using the depreciated replacement cost (DRC) model. Borrowing costs were not included in the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment when determining the increase or decrease in the revaluation surplus and have therefore been expensed. The fair values determined using the DRC model were reviewed for a possible impairment loss in order to determine whether or not the net future cash inflows related to the use of property, plant and equipment are less than the calculated fair value of property, plant and equipment. The fair values disclosed below are net of the adjustment of R186 billion (March 2015: R206 billion; September 2014: R219 billion) made for the tariff shortfall. This shortfall is expected to be eliminated once the electricity price determined in terms of the regulatory methodology, which is based on the depreciated replacement values, is fully phased in by NERSA. 30 September 2015 31 March 2015 30 September 2014 Historical Adjustments After Historical Adjustments After Historical Adjustments After cost revaluation cost revaluation cost revaluation Rm Rm Rm Rm Rm Rm Rm Rm Rm Condensed group statement of financial position Assets 618 121 239 322 857 443 562 884 221 513 784 397 534 334 209 395 743 729 Property, plant and equipment 483 747 195 005 678 752 455 977 181 551 637 528 429 488 173 169 602 657 Deferred tax 129 44 317 44 446 230 39 962 40 192 74 36 226 36 300 Other assets 134 245 – 134 245 106 677 – 106 677 104 772 – 104 772 Equity and liabilities 618 121 239 322 857 443 562 884 221 513 784 397 534 334 209 395 743 729 Total equity 175 717 140 404 316 121 122 247 130 717 252 964 128 412 124 682 253 094 Deferred tax 24 164 98 918 123 082 20 131 90 796 110 927 22 529 84 713 107 242 Other liabilities 418 240 – 418 240 420 506 – 420 506 383 393 – 383 393 24 Eskom Holdings SOC Ltd Six months ended Year ended Six months ended 30 September 2015 31 March 2015 30 September 2014 Historical Adjustments After Historical Adjustments After Historical Adjustments After cost revaluation cost revaluation cost revaluation Rm Rm Rm Rm Rm Rm Rm Rm Rm Condensed group income statement Profit before depreciation and amortisation expense, net impairment loss and other expenses 33 772 – 33 772 44 738 – 44 738 31 480 – 31 480 Depreciation and amortisation expense (7 609) (5 010) (12 619) (14 115) (10 119) (24 234) (6 672) (5 953) (12 625) Net impairment loss (122) – (122) (3 766) 1 149 (2 617) (855) 128 (727) Other expenses (8 723) (187) (8 910) (15 771) (102) (15 873) (7 841) (30) (7 871) Profit/(loss) before net finance cost 17 318 (5 197) 12 121 11 086 (9 072) 2 014 16 112 (5 855) 10 257 Net finance cost (3 498) (10 354) (13 852) (6 109) (17 389) (23 498) (3 149) (8 284) (11 433) Share of profit of equity-accounted investees 28 – 28 49 – 49 33 – 33 Profit/(loss) before tax 13 848 (15 551) (1 703) 5 026 (26 461) (21 435) 12 996 (14 139) (1 143) Income tax (2 539) 4 354 1 815 (1 366) 7 409 6 043 (3 675) 3 959 284 Profit/(loss) for the period from continuing operations 11 309 (11 197) 112 3 660 (19 052) (15 392) 9 321 (10 180) (859) Loss for the period from discontinued operations – – – (42) – (42) (34) – (34) Profit/(loss) for the period 11 309 (11 197) 112 3 618 (19 052) (15 434) 9 287 (10 180) (893) Reviewed condensed group interim financial statements | 30 September 2015 25
