MESSAGE FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
OVERVIEW
The many successes achieved in FY22 are attributable to the embodiment of the five Harmony values by our people each and every day. Our culture of achievement and a philosophy of creating shared value is encapsulated in the three words: 'Mining with Purpose'.
Harmony ended the financial year on the front foot, confident and with good momentum. The strong fourth quarter has carried through into the new financial year and I am confident we will again deliver on our strategic objective of safe, profitable ounces in financial year 2023 (FY23).
We met our revised annual production guidance despite numerous macro and operational challenges throughout FY22. Our AISC was marginally higher than guided. We have also taken a major step forward on our decarbonisation journey, with the construction of our first 30 megawatts (MW) of renewable solar generation capacity now underway through an independent power producer (IPP).
We have reshaped our portfolio through effective capital allocation. The result is a higher-quality portfolio with production now diversified across three core business areas, namely:
•South African underground
•South African surface
•International operations
Improving safety, delivering meaningful returns, active cost management and growing our ounces are key focus areas. Our brownfield and greenfield pipeline of projects, coupled with value-accretive mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and responsible allocation of capital towards environmental, social and governance (ESG) focussed initiatives will ensure continued value-creation for our shareholders and other stakeholders for years to come.
SAFETY AND RESPONSIBLE STEWARDSHIP
Safety is our number one priority and the cornerstone of decision-making at Harmony. Achieving our objective of zero loss-of-life is a non-negotiable and we believe it is achievable.
Safety will always take precedent over production. This was evident in our decision on the responsible closure of Bambanani at the end of this financial year. As the mine reached the end of its life, seismicity increased beyond an acceptable level. Therefore, the decision was taken to permanently close the mine having extracted 84% of the pillar. We bid farewell to a stalwart in South African mining, but are pleased that the highly-skilled Bambanani crews have been redeployed within Harmony. We extend our gratitude to all those who were involved at Bambanani over the past 50 years.
Our comprehensive safety initiatives and robust risk management framework are starting to yield results. We have achieved some extraordinary safety milestones as a company and indeed as an industry. Traditional high-risk agencies such as falls of ground and rail-bound equipment both demonstrated significant improvements. Harmony had zero fall-of-ground loss-of-life incidents in the second half of the financial year and we are also seeing an increase in white-flag (accident-free) days.
We have also seen our lost-time injury frequency rate (LTIFR) trend below six per 1 million hours worked for three consecutive quarters – another first for Harmony. The LTIFR for FY22 ended at 5.90 per million hours worked compared to 6.46 per million hours worked in FY21.
The roll-out of various initiatives such as the standardisation of process maps, the implementation of Syncromine (an optical character recognition system which converts paper checklists into real-time digitised data), manless box-holes, missing persons’ locators and 'wiring the mine' trials at Mponeng, will drive further improvements in safety.
Other key safety initiatives implemented in FY22 include:
•Stopes and development areas being equipped with permanent steel netting and bolting
•Introduction and adoption of additional fall-of-ground leading practices including entry examination and ensuring working areas are safe
•Introduction and adoption of a trigger action response plan (TARP) which consists of a set of documented and known workplace hazards that need to be continuously checked
•Adoption of good ledging practices at all underground operations
Our safety journey, however, requires each one of us to remain vigilant and alert to our surroundings while not being afraid to exercise our right to refuse entry to a place of work if deemed unsafe.
Regrettably, our year-on-year loss-of-life injury frequency rate regressed from 0.11 in FY21 to 0.13 in FY22. Eight of the 13 lives lost occurred at Kusasalethu in FY22. We have engaged the unions and mine management to ensure everyone is fully committed to prioritising and improving safety at the mine. Dedicated training for the engineering departments, alongside other safety initiatives, has been implemented to ensure we never have a repeat of the tragedy experienced this financial year.
We pay our respects and extend our deepest condolences to the families, friends and colleagues of the following colleagues who lost their lives in mine- and engineering-related incidents in FY22:
Thembile Simon Mabala (driller, Tshepong South), Pule Jan Mokhatsi (stope team member, Moab Khotsong), Richard Mohapi (rock drill operator, Mponeng), Thobela Gwangxu (winch operator, Kusasalethu), Mbongeni Zulu (stope team member, Kusasalethu), Sicelo Tshovana (artisan, Doornkop), Andile Michael Mafilika (stope team leader, Kusasalethu), Makoae Cosma Makhang (tramming team leader, Doornkop), Sifiso Gumede (engineering assistant, Kusasalethu), Emmanuel Dhlamini (engineering assistant, Kusasalethu), Joao Nhantumbo (engineering assistant, Kusasalethu), Lemohang Lerata (engineering assistant, Kusasalethu) and Linda Mgudzi (development team leader, Kusasalethu).
With the Covid-19 pandemic seemingly behind us, we encourage our people and host communities to remain cautious and responsible. Covid-19 has been integrated in our standard operating procedures and is prioritised alongside our other healthcare initiatives, particularly those relating to occupational and lifestyle diseases at our medical hubs and clinics, ensuring the wellbeing of our people. We have introduced a new electronic health system providing a more holistic view of our employees' health status. This electronic system incorporates occupational health, primary health, injury on duty and chronic disease on the same platform, eliminating manual processes. The system has been fully implemented at all operations, providing a more timeous, effective and holistic clinical management solution.
Sustainability
Our embedded sustainable development strategy has again resulted in our inclusion in the FTSE4Good Index where we continue to outperform the gold sub-sector and basic metals sector averages. Our FTSE Russell ESG rating improved from a 3.4 to a 4, placing Harmony in the top 9% in the sub-sector within their coverage universe.
Sustainalytics' rating for Harmony improved to 37.6 in FY22 from 40.2 (lower score is better) in FY21, demonstrating strong management of risk exposures.
We have again been included in the Bloomberg Gender-Equality Index for a fourth consecutive year, demonstrating gender diversity at all levels.
Harmony achieved an 'A' score for CDP Water Management while MSCI maintained Harmony at a ‘B’ rating on the back of our strong governance framework.
It is evident from these external recognitions and continual improvements in our ratings that we are committed to a greener and more equitable future, creating and sharing value for and with all our stakeholders.
Renewable energy and power
As part of our journey to be net-carbon zero by 2045, construction has commenced on Phase 1 of our renewable energy solar programme.
4 Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited | FY22 Results for the year ended 30 June 2022
This phase is being constructed by our IPP partners and consists of three 10 MW (30MW) solar plants in the Free State province. We have a 15-year purchase power agreement (PPA) in place. Since 2016, we have saved over R1 350 million (US$89 million) in energy efficiency and demand side management initiatives.
Phase 2 of our renewable energy programme will be largely self-funded using the proceeds of the R1.5 billion green loan and will deliver an additional 137MW of renewable energy by FY25. In addition to these two phases, we have a pipeline of renewable and alternative energy projects in various stages of development. We are open to working with the government to provide further solutions towards further alleviating the energy crisis and feeding excess energy back into the grid.
MEANINGFUL RETURNS
Long-term value creation is contingent on effective capital allocation. As we continue to grow and diversify production, capital expenditure must remain disciplined, focussed and affordable. We are paying a final dividend alongside our growth aspirations and continue to optimise our existing operations and asset mix. We are reallocating capital towards those projects and operations that will deliver the highest possible returns while lowering the overall risk profile of Harmony. Not only will we prioritise investment in our high-grade assets, we will achieve a more balanced production split across the three core business areas previously mentioned, and ensure all of our mines are safe and profitable.
We have therefore taken the tough decision to restructure Tshepong Operations. Going forward, Tshepong Operations will be reported on separately as Tshepong North and Tshepong South. The Tshepong North sub-75 project has been suspended and the life-of-mine reduced from 19 years to seven years. This restructuring will create a smaller but immediately profitable operation going forward. The capital which was earmarked for Tshepong North will be reallocated to projects delivering higher returns. This was not an easy decision but it was necessary to ensure we continue to mine sustainably and profitably. R650 million (US$40 million) in capital will be moved to projects such as Zaaiplaats and the Kareerand expansion project.
Group revenue for the period increased by 2% to R42 645 million (US$2 804 million) from R41 733 million (US$2 710 million) in FY21 mainly as a result of a R497 million (US$33 million) hedge gain and a full year's production from Mponeng and related assets in FY22 compared to only nine months in FY21.
The average gold price received, including hedging, increased by 5% to R894 218/kg (US$1 829/oz) from R851 045/kg (US$1 719/oz) in FY21.
Group gold production for the period decreased 3% year on year to 46 236kg (1 486 517oz) from 47 755kg (1 535 352oz) mainly as a result of safety-related stoppages, mining constraints and supply chain disruptions at our operations in South Africa. In Papua New Guinea, production was severely impacted by the overland conveyor belt failure at Hidden Valley and geotechnical instability impacting Stage 6 of the pit.
Group AISC of R835 891/kg (US$1 709/oz) was slightly higher than our amended guidance range for FY22 which was between R795 000/kg and R835 000/kg (US$1 626/oz and US$1 708/oz).
Group capital expenditure for FY22 increased by 21% to R6 192 million (US$407 million) from R5 103 million (US$331 million) in FY21 but was R1 837 million (US$121 million) below what had been planned. The underspend in FY22 was mainly as a result of the late start of the Zaaiplaats and Kareerand projects. The Zaaiplaats delay was mainly due to the pending finalisation of the detailed study outcome. The Kareerand project capital spend was postponed due to regulatory approvals that were delayed.
Operating free cash of R2 905 million (US$191 million) was generated, net of capital, for the reporting period (FY21: R6 528 million (US$424 million)). Pre-capital operating cash flow decreased by 26% to R7 164 million (US$471 million) from R9 741 million (US$633 million) in FY21. Cash utilised for investing activities decreased 27% to R6 200 million (US$408 million) from R8 464 million (US$531 million) due to the acquisition of Mponeng and related assets in FY21. We anticipate that we will repay the Mponeng and related assets in the coming financial year.
We again remind our stakeholders that we are in a high-capital investment cycle. This impacted free cash in FY22 and will continue into FY23 as we invest in our high-grade assets and surface retreatment business to create long-term value.
South African underground
Harmony will continue to invest in its high-grade underground assets in its quest to deliver superior returns and improved cash flow generation. We have grouped our underground assets based on grade and life-of-mine. Major capital allocation for our underground assets is prioritised based on grade and returns.
Underground assets have been grouped as follows:
•High-grade, long-life assets: Moab Khotsong and Mponeng
•Short- to medium-life assets with a focus on free-cash generation: Tshepong North, Tshepong South, Doornkop, Joel, Target 1, Kusasalethu and Masimong
South African underground production decreased 2% year on year to 34 326kg (1 103 605oz) from 34 978kg (1 124 563oz). Mining-related constraints as a result of adverse ground conditions and seismicity contributed to lower grades and volumes. Joel returned to profitability in the fourth quarter of FY22, post the completion of the decline project and the successful implementation of the turnaround strategy.
Total underground capital expenditure increased by 25% to R4 395 million (US$289 million) from R3 508 million (US$228 million) in FY21. Non-sustaining or major capital increased 47% to R901 million (US$59 million) from R613 million (US$40 million). The Zaaiplaats project at Moab Khotsong is underway while our other major underground projects at Doornkop and Target 1 are ongoing.
Ongoing development capital was 21% higher at R2 595 million (US$171 million) from R2 142 million (US$139 million) in FY21.
There will be an approximate R400 million (US$25 million) reduction in sustaining capital and R250 million (US$15 million) reduction in major capital at Tshepong North going forward.
Underground ore milled increased by 2% to 6.4 million tonnes (Mt) from 6.3Mt in FY21.
Average underground grade decreased by 3% to 5.37g/t from 5.51g/t due to adverse ground conditions at Moab Khotsong and the impact of seismicity at some high-grade panels at Mponeng. Excellent development grades have been obtained from all operations, specifically Mponeng and Moab Khotsong, which is very encouraging for future grade profiles of the South African underground operations. At all operations, development grades are higher or in line with reserve grades.
Development metres increased by 9% to 46 705 metres in FY22 from 42 871 metres in FY21. Reef metres remained flat year on year at 9 590 metres. Capital development increased 55% to 6 696 metres from 4 315 metres in FY21 due to our key projects at Target 1, Doornkop and Moab Khotsong.
Cash operating costs per unit increased by 14% to R731 460/kg (US$1 496/oz) from R640 569/kg (US$1 294/oz) in FY21. AISC increased to R855 321/kg (US$1 749/oz) from R749 971/kg (US$1 515/oz) mainly as a result of the lower production.
Production profit decreased by 16% to R6 139 million (US$404 million) from R7 349 million (US$477 million) in FY21. Operating free cash was 58% lower at R1 570 million (US$103 million) from R3 730 million (US$242 million) due to higher capital expenditure and lower production.
South African surface
Production from our surface sources increased by 1% to 8 203kg (263 730oz) in FY22 from 8 088kg (260 034oz) in FY21. Mine Waste Solutions benefited from a 7% increase in recovered grades to 0.124g/t from 0.116g/t. However, volumes were impacted by cyanide and water supply constraints in the fourth quarter of FY22. The increase in production year on year was due to an additional three months' production in FY22 compared to only nine months in FY21. Kalgold's production was impacted by lower grades due to shale dilution, heavy rainfall and power outages throughout the year.
Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited | FY22 Results for the year ended 30 June 2022 5
Average surface source grades decreased by 5% to 0.19g/t from 0.20g/t due to a decrease in grades at the dumps.
Cash operating costs for South African surface sources increased by 9% to R623 136/kg (US$1 274/oz) in FY22 from R569 369/kg (US$1 150/oz) in FY21.
AISC for South African surface sources increased by 7% to R680 841/kg (US$1 392/oz) from R636 015/kg (US$1 285/oz) in FY21.
Total South African surface capital expenditure increased by 64% to R547 million (US$36 million) from R334 million (US$22 million) in FY21 and is expected to remain elevated for the next two years.
International
Year on year Hidden Valley’s FY22 gold production declined by 21% to 3 707kg (119 182oz) from 4 689kg (150 755oz) in FY21. Silver production also declined by 12% to 55 687kg (1 790 378oz) from 63 482kg (2 040 994oz).
Gold and silver production were negatively impacted by the overland conveyor belt failure in January 2022. The overland conveyor belt has since been repaired and we have implemented additional controls to reduce the risk of this happening again.
Recovered gold grade declined 16% to 1.15g/t from 1.37g/t while the recovered silver grade declined to 17.24g/t from 18.56g/t. This was due to limited access to high-grade ore from the Stage 6 pit and processing of lower grade stockpiles while the overland conveyor belt was being repaired.
Production profit in FY22 was 55% lower at R1 036 million (US$68 million) from R2 309 million (US$150 million) in FY21. Operating free cash flow was a negative R46 million (US$3 million) compared to a positive R1 117 million (US$72 million) in FY21 due to the above-mentioned challenges. Hidden Valley has returned to profitability in the fourth quarter of FY22 post the completion of the overland conveyor belt repairs.
Hidden Valley's total cash operating costs increased by 31% to R2 193 million (US$144 million) from R1 670 million (US$108 million) due to lower silver sales and higher diesel, reagents and explosives costs. Excluding silver sales and the non-cash unwind of run-of-mine stockpiles, cash costs only increased 3% to R3 118 million (US$205 million) from R3 039 million (US$197 million) in FY21.
Per unit total cash operating costs increased by 66% to R591 551/kg (US$1 210/oz) from R356 233/kg (US$719/oz) in FY21.
AISC for FY22 increased by 49% to R1 007 986/kg (US$2 067/oz) from R677 659/kg (US$1 383/oz) due to the lower production. We expect the AISC at Hidden Valley to normalise during FY23.
MANAGING COSTS
Higher-grade ore bodies provide better margins. Managing our costs is linked to meeting our production plans. It is for these reasons that we are investing in our high-grade mines and our surface operations to further drive margins and mitigate against higher inflation.
Total cash operating costs for FY22 increased by 13% to R32 413 million (US$2 131 million) from R28 681 million (US$1 862 million) in FY21. Excluding Unisel (which was closed in FY21) and Mponeng and related assets, stringent cost controls ensured that cash costs increased by 8% in line with our planning parameters. Labour, contractors and electricity accounted for 77% of our South African cash operating costs. The primary driver of the overall increase in costs was higher electricity costs which increased by 13% while labour costs increased between 6 and 8%. Consumables such as diesel, chemicals and steel also contributed towards the increase. Mponeng and related assets contributed an additional R1 671 million (US$110 million) in costs, an increase of 33% year on year, due to a full year's costs in FY22 compared to only nine months in FY21.
Care and maintenance costs increased by 90% in FY22 to R273 million (US$18 million) from R144 million (US$9 million) in FY21 as a result of the closure of the Vaal River surface operations and the Kopanang gold plant at the end of FY21.
Covid-19 related costs were R477 million (US$31 million) in FY22 compared to R579 million (US$38 million) in FY21. Since the beginning of the pandemic, Covid-19 has cost Harmony over R1 200 million (US$78 million) in direct expenses. We expect these costs to fall substantially going forward.
Per unit total cash operating costs for Harmony increased 17% to R701 024/kg (US$1 434/oz) compared to R600 592/kg (US$1 213/oz) in FY21 due to the lower production.
INVESTING IN GROWTH
The various brownfield projects announced in FY21 are now all underway. The Target 1 recapitalisation project is expected to be complete by the end of this calendar year and the Doornkop 207/212 project is also on track.
We continue with various exploration projects to address production gaps, replace ounces and increase life-of-mine. In South Africa, brownfield exploration continues at Mponeng, Joel, Doornkop and Kalgold. We are also making good progress at our Target North exploration project.
In Papua New Guinea, brownfield exploration is focussed on developing new satellite resource areas through the Kerimenge deposit near Hidden Valley. The Kerimenge deposit is located approximately 8 kilometres west of the Hamata processing plant and has an inferred resource of 16.4Mt at 1.07g/t for 565 000 ounces of gold.
The Tier 1 Wafi-Golpu copper-gold project continues as we work with Newcrest Mining Limited (our joint venture partner), to progress the Special Mining Lease permitting process. With the general elections in Papua New Guinea now complete, we expect negotiations to resume.
As part of our objective of growing our ounces through value-accretive acquisitions, opportunities will be assessed and considered provided they are affordable and meet our investment criteria for value creation.
KEY FINANCIAL RESULTS
Impairment of assets
An impairment loss of R4 433 million (US$273 million) was recognised for FY22. R3 622 million (US$223 million) was recognised against Tshepong Operations, where the restructuring resulted in two separate cash-generating units (CGU) being tested for impairment purposes. The impairments are mainly due to the increase in costs for both production and capital expenditure, as well as certain reserves at Tshepong North being reclassified from reserves in the life-of-mine plan to the resource base. This resulted in discounting having a more significant impact on the valuation of the operation. Moab Khotsong recognised impairment charges of R522 million (US$32 million) primarily as a result of increased production costs and additional capital costs for the Zaaiplaats project. Kusasalethu and Bambanani recognised impairment charges of R289 million (US$18 million) following updates made to their life-of-mine plans due to safety considerations.
R333 million (US$21 million) of the impairment charges attributable to Moab Khotsong and Bambanani were recognised against goodwill.
Also refer to note 7 in the financial statements for more details.
Foreign exchange gains and losses included in the operating profit/loss
A foreign exchange translation loss of R327 million (US$21 million) was recognised in FY22 compared to a R670 million gain (US$44 million) in FY21. This is predominantly a result of the weakening of the rand and the impact this had on US dollar loan balances. The rand weakened against the US dollar evidenced by a closing exchange rate of R16.27/US$1 at 30 June 2022 compared to R14.27/US$1 a year earlier.
Taxation
Total taxation for the group decreased from an expense of R1 258 million (US$81 million) in FY21 to a credit of R46 million (US$3 million) in FY22.
Current tax decreased by 44% to R307 million (US$20 million) from R544 million (US$35 million) mainly due to the decrease in production profits and the resultant lower taxable income.
6 Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited | FY22 Results for the year ended 30 June 2022
Deferred tax moved from an expense of R714 million (US$46 million) in FY21 to a credit of R353 million (US$23 million) in FY22. This was mainly as a result of the change in life-of-mine plans, which affected the deferred tax rates, resulting in a decrease year on year for the majority of the South African companies. Changes in temporary differences, including those caused by impairments, also contributed to the change. Refer to note 5 in the financial statements.
Net profit/loss
Harmony’s financial performance in FY22 reflects a net loss of R1 012 million (US$48 million) compared to a net profit of R5 124 million (US$326 million) in FY21.
Basic earnings per share declined more than 100% from 842 SA cents per share (54 US cents) in FY21 to a loss of 172 SA cents per share (8 US cents).
Headline earnings per share decreased 49% to 499 SA cents (33 US cents) for FY22 from 987 SA cents (64 US cents) for FY21.
Refer to note 6 in the financial statements.
Net debt
As at 30 June 2022, net debt increased by R215 million (US$9 million) to R757 million (US$47 million). This was mainly attributable to a lower cash position due to the increased capital expenditure and lower production.
Liquidity
During the last quarter of FY22, we refinanced our funding facilities which now include new sustainability-linked and green loan facilities through a syndicate of banks. The facility comprises of the following components:
•US$300 million sustainability-linked Revolving Credit Facility (RCF)
•US$100 million sustainability-linked term loan
•R2.5 billion sustainability-linked RCF
•R1.5 billion green loan
The Rand RCF, US$ RCF and US$ term loan are linked to certain sustainability-linked key performances indicators (ESG KPIs), which will be measured annually for the next three financial years and will result in changes to interest rate margins. The ESG KPIs against which we will be measured are greenhouse gas emissions, renewable energy as a percentage of total energy consumed at our South African operations and potable water consumed. Refer to note 10 for detail.
Headroom of R8 202 million (US$504 million) is available through cash and available facilities and will be used to help Harmony achieve its strategic and growth objectives.
Derivatives and hedging
Harmony continues to enjoy favourable commodity and foreign exchange pricing on the unhedged portion of its exposure, while locking in higher prices as part of its derivative programme. For FY22, we reported a net gain on derivatives (including realised and unrealised) of R53 million (US$3 million) compared to a net gain of R1 022 million (US$66 million) in FY21. This figure excludes gains and losses from hedge-accounted gold derivatives, which are accounted for in revenue. The decrease in the gain is primarily a consequence of the reduction in open positions of the foreign exchange derivatives at 30 June 2022 as compared to 30 June 2021, as well as the spot rate at the reporting dates relative to the floor and cap rates.
Revenue includes a realised hedging gain of R497 million (US$33 million) in FY22 compared to the R2 296 million (US$149 million) realised loss in FY21 relating to the realised effective portion of hedge-accounted gold derivatives.
Derivatives recorded a net realised cash inflow of R695 million (US$46 million) in FY22 as compared to an outflow of R2 544 million (US$165 million) in FY21.
The derivative programme stood at a net positive value of R645 million (US$40 million) as at 30 June 2022 mainly due to the locked-in forward price of gold hedges exceeding the spot rate, yielding a positive valuation of the outstanding contracts.
Refer to notes 3 and 8 in the financial statements for details on the derivative programme.
Final dividend
In line with our existing dividend policy, and following on the payment of an interim dividend in April 2022, we are pleased to announce that Harmony has declared a final dividend of 22 SA cents (1.3 US cents) per share on the back of the operating free cash generated throughout the financial year. The board has taken a decision to declare a dividend on the basis of consistency and adjusting for major capital and once-off items.
This, in addition to the interim dividend paid, translates to a full year dividend yield of approximately 1.1% based on our recent share price.
The decision to pay a dividend is made on the basis that it will be sustainable and will not inhibit future expansion opportunities. When declaring a dividend, the board of directors takes the following into account: the dividend will be 20% of net free cash subject to future major capital expenditure, net debt to EBITDA not being greater than 1.0x, solvency and liquidity requirements in line with the South Africa Companies Act and current banking covenants.
APPOINTMENT OF FUTURE EXTERNAL AUDITOR
On 1 July 2022, we announced that we intend on appointing Ernst & Young Incorporated (EY) as the external auditor with effect from the financial year commencing 1 July 2023, being the 2024 financial year. The appointment will be subject to shareholder approval at the next annual general meeting to be held on 29 November 2022. This is in accordance with the mandatory audit firm rotation rule issued by the Independent Regulatory Board for Auditors.
FY23 GROUP PRODUCTION AND COST GUIDANCE
Production guidance for FY23 is estimated to be between 1.4 million ounces (Moz) and 1.5Moz at an all-in sustaining cost of below R900 000/kg. Underground recovered grade is planned to be between 5.45g/t to 5.60g/t. This guidance was determined with reference to the life-of-mine plans of the group’s operations. Refer to note 7 of the financial statements for the long-term assumptions used as part of the annual budgeting process. The above guidance is subject to forward-looking statements.
CONCLUSION
Thank you to all our shareholders and stakeholders for the ongoing support, which has enabled Harmony to achieve its goals.
While the solid platform we have built has placed Harmony in a strong position to deliver operationally, our journey is not yet complete. Creating further value for all our stakeholders requires constant evaluation of our assets and an understanding of where we can generate the best returns over the life-of-mine. Our portfolio will continue to evolve as we strive to produce safe, profitable ounces and further our efforts to diversify production across the three core business areas.
We have a clear strategy to invest in projects that will generate the best possible returns, ensuring we meet our long-term objectives. It is for this reason we have dedicated significant resources towards improving the safety and operational performance throughout all our operations.
Harmony is in the business of converting resources into shared value. Sustainability is at the centre of all strategic decisions. Delivering meaningful returns to our shareholders while at the same time effecting positive change and maintaining the trust of all of our stakeholders is what we call 'Mining with Purpose'.

SUMMARY UPDATE OF HARMONY’S MINERAL RESOURCES AND MINERAL RESERVES
Harmony’s statement of Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves as at 30 June 2022 is produced in accordance with the South African Code for the Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (SAMREC). It should be noted that the Mineral Resources are reported inclusive of the Mineral Reserves. In our Form 20-F the Mineral Resources are reported exclusive of reserves. United States investors are urged to consider the disclosure in this regard in our Form 20-F which will be available on our website at www.harmony.co.za/invest/annual-reports on 31 October 2022.
This report provides a summary of the update, while the detailed statement of the Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves will be published in the Integrated Annual Report on 25 October 2022, which will be available at www.harmony.co.za/invest. Refer to the website (www.harmony.co.za) for the updated reserves and resources tables as at 30 June 2022.
INTRODUCTION
Harmony’s strategy is to produce safe, profitable ounces and increase margins. This includes delivering safely on our operational plans, reducing costs and improving productivity. Harmony’s growth journey entails acquiring quality assets. In FY17, Harmony invested in the life-of-mine extension at Hidden Valley and in FY18 acquired and integrated the higher-grade Moab Khotsong operations. In FY21, Harmony acquired the remainder of the AngloGold Ashanti South African assets – Mponeng and related assets.
HARMONY – TOTAL
The company’s attributable gold and gold equivalent Mineral Resources are declared as 132.6Moz as at 30 June 2022, a 6% decrease year on year from the 141.2Moz declared as at 30 June 2021. The total gold contained in the Mineral Resources at the South African operations represents 71% of the company total, with the Papua New Guinea operations representing 29% of Harmony’s total gold and gold equivalent Mineral Resources as at 30 June 2022.
Harmony’s attributable gold and gold equivalent Mineral Reserves amount to 39.8Moz, a 6% decrease from the 42.45Moz declared at 30 June 2021. The gold reserve ounces in South Africa represent 54%, while the Papua New Guinea gold and gold equivalent ounces represent 46% of Harmony’s total Mineral Reserves as at 30 June 2022.
South Africa
South African underground operations
The company’s Mineral Resources at the South African underground operations as at 30 June 2022 are 80.1Moz (249.4Mt at 9.99g/t), a decrease of 5% year on year from the 83.96Moz (262.1Mt at 9.96g/t) declared as at 30 June 2021. This decrease is mainly due to a reduction in Mineral Resources at the Kusasalethu and Moab Khotsong operations.
The company’s Mineral Reserves at the South African underground operations as at 30 June 2022 are 11.1Moz (54.0Mt at 6.40g/t), a decrease of 22% year on year from the 14.3Moz (70.46Mt at 6.31g/t) declared as at 30 June 2021. The decrease in ounces is mainly due to the Mineral Reserves reduction at the Tshepong Operations and Bambanani as a result of the reduction of the life-of-mine of the respective operations.
South African surface operations, including Kalgold
The company’s Mineral Resources at the South African surface operations as at 30 June 2022 are 14.52Moz (1 622.5Mt at 0.28g/t), a decrease of 9% mainly due to the reduction of Mineral Resources from the Vaal River tailings.
The company’s Mineral Reserves after normal depletion at the South African surface operations as at 30 June 2022 are 10.4Moz (1 230.7Mt at 0.26g/t), the Mineral Reserves remained constant year on year.
Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea operations
The company’s attributable gold and gold equivalent Mineral Resources at the Papua New Guinea operations as at 30 June 2022 are 37.9Moz, a decrease of 8% year on year from the 41.3Moz declared as at 30 June 2021. This decrease is mainly due to the imminent sale of the Kili Teke project, with the gold and gold equivalent resources of 3.5Moz being treated as held for sale.
The company’s gold and gold equivalent Mineral Reserves at the Papua New Guinea operations as at 30 June 2022 are 18.2Moz, an increase of 3% year on year from the 17.7Moz declared as at 30 June 2021. The increase is mainly due to the increase in equivalent gold ounces at Golpu.
| | |
ASSUMPTIONS |
In converting the Mineral Resources to Mineral Reserves, the following commodity prices and exchange rates were applied: |
•A gold price of US$1 546/oz |
•An exchange rate of R15.35/US$1 |
•The above parameters resulted in a Rand/kg gold price of R763 000/kg for the South African assets |
•The Hidden Valley mine and the Wafi-Golpu project used commodity prices of US$1 546/oz Au, US$22.35/oz Ag and US$3.30/lb Cu at an exchange rate of AUD1.37 per US$ |
•Gold equivalent ounces are calculated assuming US$1 546/oz Au, US$3.30/lb Cu and US$22.35/oz Ag, and assuming a 100% recovery for all metals |

* Represents Harmony’s equity portion of 50%
** In instances where individual deposits may contain multiple valuable commodities with a reasonable expectation of being recovered (for example gold and copper in a single deposit), Harmony computes a gold equivalent to more easily assess the value of the deposit against gold-only mines. Harmony does this by calculating the value of each of the deposits' commodities, then dividing the product by the price of gold. For example, the gold equivalent ounces for the copper portion of a deposit would be calculated as follows: (copper pounds x copper price per pound)/gold price per ounce. All gold equivalent calculations are done using metal prices and parameters as stipulated above

EXPLORATION
Our exploration strategy is to predominantly pursue brownfields exploration targets close to existing infrastructure. This will drive short- to medium-term organic ore reserve replacement and growth to support our current strategy of increasing quality ounces and to mitigate the risk of a depleting ore reserve base.
Key workstreams underpinning the FY22 exploration programme include:
•brownfield exploration at Hidden Valley, Kerimenge and Kalgold to optimise existing open pit operations and extend mine life
•brownfield exploration at our underground operations in South Africa
•greenfield exploration at Target North
•reviewing exploration opportunities as part of our new business strategy
A detailed report of the Exploration Results will be provided as part of the suite of annual reports to be published on 25 October 2022.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022 (RAND)
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of accounting
The condensed consolidated financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2022 have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the JSE Limited Listings Requirements for provisional reports and the requirements of the Companies Act no. 71 of 2008 of South Africa. The Listings Requirements require provisional reports to be prepared in accordance with the framework concepts and the measurement and recognition requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee and Financial Pronouncements as issued by the Financial Reporting Standards Council and to also, as a minimum, contain the information required by IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The accounting policies applied in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements are in terms of IFRS and are consistent with those applied in the previous consolidated annual financial statements. There were no new standards, amendments to standards or interpretations that became effective that had a material impact on the group's results or financial position.
The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
During the year ended 30 June 2022, Mine Waste Solutions (MWS) was identified as a separate reportable segment as a result of it exceeding the quantitative threshold of 10% of total reported profit as set out in IFRS 8 Operating Segments. This resulted in MWS's segment information being disaggregated from the All other surface operations segment. In accordance with the requirements of IFRS, the June 2021 comparative information has been re-presented in the segment report.
Note 16 includes the revised figures for certain prescribed officers' shares held at 30 June 2021.
2. IMPACT OF CHANGES IN GLOBAL OPERATING AND ECONOMIC ENVIRONMENT
Covid-19
In South Africa, the national lockdown that began on 27 March 2020 to curb the spread of the Coronavirus (Covid-19) came to an end during April 2022. This led to the discontinuance of all Covid-19 regulations which had been put in place. In Papua New Guinea, where the Hidden Valley operation is located, significant decreases in positive cases have been experienced for the 2022 calendar year. In prior years, the group had been able to carry out its operations in Papua New Guinea during the state of emergency which had been imposed by the government.
The virus will still be prevalent in normal day-to-day living. However, unlike before, a significant percentage of the population has been vaccinated against Covid-19. This puts Harmony in a favourable position to manage Covid-19 as part of normal day-to-day activities and as a result management does not expect there to be any further disruptions.
Cost and inflationary pressures
During the second half of the 2022 financial year, Harmony experienced heightened input costs driven by inflationary pressures related to global supply chain constraints due to the Covid-19 pandemic, which was then further exacerbated by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The effect has been especially pronounced on certain key items such as oil (directly affecting diesel supply and cost), steel and certain chemical reagents used by the treatment plants. These cost pressures had an impact on, among others, the FY23 budget and life-of-mine planning process, determination of deferred tax rates for the group’s mining entities and impairment assessments performed for the group’s cash generating units. Refer to notes 5 and 7 respectively for further disclosure.
Discount rates
In recent months, central banks globally have been increasing interest rates as a measure of combating rising inflation. In the current financial year, the US Federal Reserve has increased interest rates by 150 basis points, while the South African Reserve Bank (SARB) has raised the repurchase interest rate by 125 basis points for the same period. This contributed to increased bond yields realised in the market, which results in increased risk-free rates being used for discounting of the provision for environmental rehabilitation and the determination of cost of equity as used for purposes of impairment assessments. Refer to note 7 and 9 respectively for further disclosure.
Commodity prices and exchange rates
Gold traded within a range of US$1 726/oz and US$2 052/oz (2021: US$1 681/oz and US$2 063/oz) during the current financial year, reaffirming its safe haven status with investors during times of global uncertainty and market volatility. These uncertainties have also resulted in increased volatility in the R/US$ and R/A$ exchange rates. The currencies traded in ranges of R14.15/US$1 to R16.30/US$1 (2021: R13.43/US$1 to R17.68/US$1) and R10.43/A$1 to R11.63/A$1 (2021: R10.41/A$1 to R12.66/A$1) respectively during the current financial year. Management believes this volatility could be a reflection of growing concern in market sentiment fears surrounding recessions in key economies and current and/or further geopolitical tensions.
As part of the underlying assumptions used in valuing certain line items, management used a consensus of market analysts’ forecasts in determining short-, medium- and long-term commodity prices and exchange rates. These economic assumptions are used in certain fair value calculations. Based on the consensus forecasts used, a marked increase was seen in US$ gold price and R/US$ exchange rate assumptions applied. Refer to note 7 for disclosed assumptions.

| | Year ended |
Figures in million | | 30 June 2022 (Reviewed) | 30 June 2021 (Audited) |
Revenue from contracts with customers | | 41 677 | | 43 632 | |

Hedging gain/(loss)4 | | 497 | | (2 296) | |
Total revenue5 | | 42 645 | | 41 733 | |
1 The decrease in gold revenue during the 2022 financial year is mainly due to the decrease in gold production by 3% to 46 236kg from 47 755kg in the prior year. The decrease is a result of mining constraints at Doornkop, Moab Khotsong and Tshepong Operations resulting in lower grade recovered, the seismic issues experienced at Bambanani as well as the geotechnical instability affecting Stage 6 and a conveyor belt failure at Hidden Valley. In addition, the average gold spot price received decreased by 1.8% from R899 563/kg in the 2021 year to R883 453/kg. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in production at Mponeng and Mine Waste Solutions as they contributed for the full year compared to nine months in the prior year.
2 Silver is derived from the Hidden Valley mine in Papua New Guinea. Uranium is derived from the Moab Khotsong operation.
3 Relates to the recognition of non-cash consideration recognised as part of revenue for the streaming arrangement. Refer to note 12 for further information.
4 Relates to the realised effective portion of the hedge-accounted gold derivatives.The average gold spot price traded during the 2022 financial year was R896 712/kg (2021: R915 736/kg) compared to the average forward price of matured contracts of R940 536/kg (2021: R731 971/kg) . Refer to note 8 for further information.

1 Production costs increased during the 2022 year, mainly due to inflationary pressures on costs including labour, electricity and consumable stores costs (refer to note 2) as well as the inclusion of the Mponeng operations and related assets for a full financial year.
2 The royalty expense decreased significantly during the 2022 year due to lower production profits, which also impacted on the rates at which royalties are calculated.
3 During the 2022 year impairments of R4 433 million were recognised for the property, plant and equipment of Tshepong Operations, Moab Khotsong, Bambanani and Kusasalethu as well as the goodwill of Bambanani and Moab Khotsong. Refer to note 7 for further details.
4 The care and maintenance costs increased during the 2022 year due to the closure of the Vaal River surface operations and the Kopanang gold plant, which were closed at the end of the previous financial year.
5 Employment termination and restructuring costs decreased during the 2022 year, due to the lower number of employees taking up voluntary severance packages year on year.

5. TAXATION
Current taxation
The movement in foreign exchange translation from gains in 2021 to losses in 2022 and a decline in mining taxable income resulted in the decrease in the current tax expense during the 2022 financial year.
Deferred taxation
The movement in the net deferred tax liability is mainly attributable to a decrease in net taxable temporary differences as well as in deferred tax rates for the majority of the group's South African mining companies. The amount recognised at 30 June 2022 is as follows:
| | | | | | | | |

Figures in million | 30 June 2022 (Reviewed) | 30 June 2021 (Audited) |

Deferred tax asset per balance sheet (c) | (203) | | (272) | |
Deferred tax liability per balance sheet | 1 586 | | 2 178 | |
(a) The main contributors to the decreases were:
•Freegold (Harmony) Pty Ltd's deferred tax rate decreased, resulting in a R372 million decrease, which together with the impact of R266 million on the impairment recognised resulted in a R619 million decrease overall
•Harmony Moab Khotsong Operations (Pty) Ltd's deferred tax rate decreased, causing a R102 million decrease in the deferred tax liability. This was offset by the increased capital expenditure, which includes the Zaaiplaats project, resulting in a net decrease of R51 million
•Randfontein Estates Ltd utilised its unredeemed capital expenditure balance during 2022 and that combined with the R44 million impact of a higher deferred tax rate, resulted in a R117 million increase in the net deferred tax liability
•Golden Core Trade and Invest (Pty) Ltd, which acquired the Mponeng operation and the West Wits closure business utilised a portion of its unredeemed capital allowance and an increase in its asset value combined with the R37 million impact of a higher deferred tax rate, resulted in a R98 million increase for 2022
•Chemwes (Pty) Ltd (Chemwes Company) utilised a portion of its unredeemed capital expenditure balance and the Franco-Nevada liability decreased (refer note 12), resulting in a decrease of R74 million in its deferred tax asset
(b) The movement in the net derivative position (refer to note 8) resulted in a decrease of R170 million in the net deferred tax liability.
(c) As at 30 June 2022 a deferred tax asset was recognised in Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited (Harmony Company) and Chemwes Company. The deferred tax asset for Harmony Company remained stable at R179 million, while Chemwes Company decreased from R97 million to R24 million. A deferred tax asset continues to be recognised for both companies as it is probable that sufficient future taxable profits will be available against which the remaining deductible temporary differences existing at the reporting date can be utilised.
As part of the determination of the deferred tax rates for the South African entities mentioned above, consideration was given to the amended corporate income tax rate of 27% from 28% as well as the change in the mining tax rate from 34% to 33% for the 2023 financial year. The annual limitation of assessed loss utilisation to 80% of taxable income was incorporated in the calculation. The changes were considered to be substantively enacted at 30 June 2022 and would affect forecast tax estimations or cash flows. They were also taken into account in the determination of recoverable amounts for impairment purposes. Refer to note 7.

7. PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
Impairment of property, plant and equipment (including goodwill)
Management performed an assessment for indicators of impairment as well as indicators of reversal of previously recorded impairment losses at 30 June 2022. Due to the net asset value (before any impairments recognised) exceeding the market capitalisation of Harmony as at 30 June 2022, as well as increased operating costs, the recoverable amounts for all cash-generating units (CGUs) were calculated. The recoverable amounts for these assets were determined on a fair value less cost to sell basis using assumptions in the discounted cash flow models and attributable resource values. These are fair value measurements classified as level 3.
Estimates and judgements
The recoverable amount of mining assets is determined utilising real discounted future cash flows or resource multiples in the case of undeveloped properties and certain resource bases. During this year's planning and testing, commodity price and exchange rate assumptions as per the table below were used. In determining the commodity prices and resource values to be used, management assesses the short-, medium- and long-term views of several reputable institutions on commodity prices and based on this, derives the commodity prices and resource values. The long-term price was determined as part of the annual budgeting process and is used in the life-of-mine plans and is also the cut-off price for calculating reserves included in the declaration of resources and reserves in terms of the South African Code for the Reporting of Exploration Results, Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves (SAMREC). The resource multiple values have remained consistent with the prior year, as no new market transactions have taken place in the South African gold mining industry that would provide more recent information compared to prior year information.
Post-tax real discount rates ranging between 10.2% and 13.1% (2021: 9.4% and 12.0%), depending on the asset, were used to determine the recoverable amounts for the South African operations. Hidden Valley made use of a post-tax real discount rate of 11.4% (2021: 10.3%). | | | | | | | | | | | |

Results of impairment and assessment
Based on the impairment tests performed, the following impairments of property, plant and equipment and goodwill were recorded for the 2022 financial year:

| Year ended |
Figures in million | 30 June 2022 (Reviewed) | 30 June 2021 (Audited) |

Bambanani (d) | 144 | | 187 |
Target 3 | — | | 178 |
Total impairment | 4 433 | | 1 124 |
(a) The Tshepong Operations were disaggregated into two separate cash generating units (CGU) being the Tshepong North CGU and the Tshepong South (also known as the Phakisa section) CGU, for impairment testing at 30 June 2022. This is due to the decision taken during the FY23 budget process to reinvest in the two individual operations to maximise individual profitability following the change to Tshepong North's life-of-mine with the sub-75 decline project being halted. Based on the forward-looking nature of the impairment assessment, a separate impairment calculation was prepared for each of the CGUs. The disaggregation of CGUs did not have an impact on reportable segments in terms of IFRS 8 Operating Segments as disclosed in the segment report, since information reported to the chief operating decision maker for the 2022 financial year was still for the combined Tshepong Operations. Going forward however, Tshepong North and Tshepong South will be disclosed as separate reportable segments. A total impairment of R3 622 million was recognised on these CGUs, which is made up of the following:
–An impairment of R2 296 million on property, plant and equipment of Tshepong North was recognised at 30 June 2022. This was mainly as a result of increased cost both for production and capital expenditure and the increased post-tax discount rate of 11.7% (2021: 10.1% for Tshepong Operations). The recoverable amount was also affected by the reclassification of production for the sub-75 level from reserves in the life-of-mine plan to the resource base, which is subject to a higher discount rate of 13.7% (2021: 12.0%). The post-tax recoverable amount was determined to be R1 938 million
–An impairment of R1 326 million on property, plant and equipment of Tshepong South was recognised at 30 June 2022. The individual life-of-mine plan included additional capital to address flexibility constraints at the operation. Costs also increased significantly as a result of inflationary pressures. The changes affected the discounted cash flows used to determine the recoverable amount of the operation. The post-tax recoverable amount, after the impact of a higher discount rate of 11.7% (2021: 10.1% for Tshepong Operations), was determined to be R1 645 million
The impairment for 2021 mainly resulted from a reduction in planned gold production resulting from lower grade and change in the timing of cash flows.
(b) An impairment of R522 million on property, plant and equipment and goodwill of Moab Khotsong was recognised at 30 June 2022, of which R302 million related to goodwill. The updated life-of-mine plan included an increase in working and capital costs as a result of inflationary pressures. The updated life-of-mine plan also includes additional capital expenditure which relates to the Zaaiplaats project after finalisation of its detailed design plan during the current financial year. This impacted the discounted cash flows used to determine the recoverable amount of the operation. The recoverable amount was further impacted by an increased post-tax discount rate of 10.4% (2021: 9.4%) which resulted in the post-tax recoverable amount decreasing to R3 748 million.
(c) The impairment of property, plant and equipment on Kusasalethu was mainly as a result of the reduction in tonnes combined with a decrease in grade over the remainder of the operation's life, leading to a decrease in planned gold production. The reduction is due to an updated plan to mitigate safety risks that exist at the operation. These changes reduced the recoverable amount to R806 million and an impairment of R145 million was recognised.
(d) During the December 2021 period, impairments of R144 million were recognised for property, plant and equipment and goodwill of Bambanani. The impairment of goodwill and assets on Bambanani was as a result of a change in the life-of-mine plan, moving the closure of the mine to June 2022 rather than June 2024 as planned during FY21. This was as a result of increased seismicity at the operation and the related risk increasing as pillars were mined out. The post-tax recoverable amount of R36 million, at December 2021, was derived from the expected cash flows as per the life-of-mine plans. The recoverable amount of the operation is now Rnil, as the operation was closed during June 2022.
Where CGUs had previously been impaired, management considered whether the impairment loss (or the contributors to the previously recognised impairment loss) no longer exists or might have decreased. Management considered general and specific factors for each CGU and concluded that although overall the gold price environment had improved from the time that the impairment losses had been recognised, the specific circumstances that led to the original impairments had not reversed. Furthermore, the service potential of the asset has not increased. Management therefore resolved it to be appropriate for no reversal of previously recognised impairment losses to be recorded for the year ended 30 June 2022.

Impairment of property, plant and equipment (including goodwill) continued
Results of impairment and assessment continued
One of the most significant assumptions that influence the life-of-mine plans, and therefore impairment assessments, is the expected commodity prices. Management determined a reasonably possible long-term change of 10% in gold prices based on the standard deviation of both Harmony's long-term gold price assumption over the past five financial years and market analysts' forecasted long-term gold price assumptions. A 10% increase/decrease (pre-impairment and scrapping recognised) in the gold price and resource values used (with all other variables held constant and not taking any actions, such as stopping capital projects, into account) would have resulted in the following post-tax impairment being recorded (including the impairments recorded in the current period) as at 30 June 2022:

1 The carrying amounts of these CGUs include goodwill and any impairment losses are allocated first to goodwill and then to the identifiable assets.
As a result of the significant increase in discount rates experienced during the current financial year, management opted to assess the sensitivity of a reasonably possible change in discount rates on impairments of assets for all CGUs. Management assessed an increase/decrease of 50 basis points to be a reasonably possible change, based on the standard deviation of the group's base weighted average cost of capital rate over the past five financial years. This change was factored into the individual CGUs' discount rates and did not result in a material impact on the impairment that would have been recognised for any CGUs.
Papua New Guinea
Costs related to stripping activities for the period ended 30 June 2022 amounted to R1 096 million (2021: R1 047 million) with Hidden Valley accounting for R922 million (2021: R871 million) of these costs. The increase was predominantly driven by the Hidden Valley Stage 7 cutback. Primary stripping activities commenced in July 2020 and the main ore body was reached in November 2021. Until that time, stripping costs were capitalised in full due to significant levels of waste being removed with incidental ore being mined.
In addition to the above, the foreign exchange translation movement on property, plant and equipment for the region was an increase of R819 million (2021: R1 079 million decrease) for the year ended 30 June 2022.

9. PROVISION FOR ENVIRONMENTAL REHABILITATION
The increase in the provision for environmental rehabilitation during the 2022 financial year of R351 million is mainly due to a reduction of the life of certain operations, which impacted the discounting of the provision (R185 million). Also contributing is the weakening Rand/AUS$ exchange rate which impacted the translation of the balance year on year for South-east Asia (R101 million). The remaining increase relates to the increase of discount rates. Refer to note 2 for a discussion thereof.

Refinancing of facilities
During May 2022, Harmony refinanced its existing R2 billion and US$400 million facility with the following facilities held with a syndicate of local and international lenders:
•R2.5 billion revolving credit facility (Rand RCF)
•$100 million term facility (US$ term loan)
•$300 million revolving credit facility (US$ RCF)
•R1.5 billion green loan (Green loan)
The Green loan can only be used for renewable energy projects.
The Rand RCF, US$ RCF and US$ term loan are linked to certain sustainability-linked key performance indicators (ESG KPIs), which will be measured annually for the next three financial years and will result in changes to interest rate margins. The adjustments to interest rate margins for each financial year's ESG performance would impact the following financial year. The respective ESG KPIs are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
KPI | Unit of Measurement | Scope | Sustainability performance targets |
| | | FY23 | FY24 | FY25 |
Greenhouse gas emissions | ‘000 tonnes of Scope 1 and Scope 2 CO2e emissions | All operations | 4 485 | 4 279 | 4 074 |
Renewable energy | Renewable energy consumption as % of total electricity consumed | SA operations | 2 | % | 8 | % | 20 | % |
Water consumption | Potable water consumed (Mℓ) | SA operations | 20 453 | 19 833 | 19 436 |
Depending on Harmony's performance in relation to these ESG KPIs, the potential change in interest rate margin is as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | |
Cumulative benefit/penalty for each financial year (basis points) | FY23 | FY24 | FY25 |
KPI | | | |
Greenhouse gas emissions | 1 | | 2 | | 3 | |
Renewable energy | 1 | | 2 | | 3 | |
Water consumption | 1 | 2 | 3 |
The new debt covenant tests for both the Rand and the US$ facilities are as follows:
•The group's interest cover ratio shall be more than five times (EBITDA1/ Total Interest paid);
•Leverage2 shall not be more than 2.5 times.
1 Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) as defined in the agreement also excludes unusual items such as impairment and restructuring cost.
2 Leverage is defined as total net debt to EBITDA.
During the refinancing process, the tangible net worth to total net debt ratio that was relevant to the previous facilities has been removed as a debt covenant while the interest cover and leverage ratios remained unchanged.
The cash flows from the refinancing process were directed by Harmony and are therefore reflected in the cash flow statement. The transaction costs of R172 million are included as part of the interest paid line in the cash flow statement.

•Westpac fleet loan: R94 million repayment
•US$400 million facility – sustainability linked: US$200 million (R3 057 million) draw down
Loan covenants tests were performed for both the old and new loan facilities for the 2022 and 2021 financial years and no breaches were noted. For the 2022 financial year, the group's interest cover ratio was 43.4 times (2021: 42.8 times) while the group's leverage was 0.1 (2021: 0.1). As mentioned above, the tangible net worth to total net debt ratio was removed as a loan covenant during the current financial year (2021: 57.8). Management believes that it is very likely that the covenant requirements will be met in the foreseeable future given the current earnings and interest levels.

11. CONTINGENT CONSIDERATION LIABILITY
Consideration for the acquisition of Mponeng and its related assets included contingent consideration subject to the following criteria:
•US$260 per ounce payable on all underground production from the Mponeng, Savuka and Tau Tona mines in excess of 250 000 ounces per year for six years commencing 1 January 2021
•US$20 per ounce payable on underground production from the Mponeng, Savuka and Tau Tona mines sourced from levels developed in the future below the current infrastructure
As at 30 June 2022, the contingent consideration liability was valued at R356 million (2021: R417 million) by using the discounted cash flows valuation method, discounted at a post-tax real rate of 10.2% (2021:10.3%). Other assumptions applied in the valuation are the forecast Rand/US dollar exchange rate and life-of-mine plan of the Mponeng operation. Refer to note 7 for R/US$ exchange rates used in the valuation as at 30 June 2022. The remeasurement of the liability of R61 million is included in other operating expenses and relates primarily to a change in the production profile, as included in the life-of-mine plan of the Mponeng operation. The fair value calculated for the contingent consideration is level 3 in the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs. The contingent consideration attributable to the below infrastructure ounces of gold was valued at Rnil at 30 June 2022 (2021: Rnil).

13. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES
Foreign exchange risk
Harmony's revenues are sensitive to the R/US$ exchange rate as all revenues are generated by gold sales denominated in US$. A weakening of the Rand will increase the reported revenue total; conversely a strengthening will decrease it.
Harmony maintains a foreign currency derivative programme to manage foreign exchange risk. The limit currently set by the Board is 25% of the group's foreign exchange risk exposure for a period of 24 months. The audit and risk committee reviews the details of the programme quarterly. Refer to note 8 and the fair value determination section below for further detail on these contracts.
The Rand weakened during the 2022 year from R14.27/US$1 on 30 June 2021 to close at R16.27/US$1 on 30 June 2022. The volatility in the exchange rate is driven by global economic factors. Refer to note 2 for a discussion on some of the factors and their impact. The weakening negatively impacted on the derivative valuations as well as the translation of the US$ debt facilities at 30 June 2022. Refer to note 10 for detail.
During the 2022 year the Rand weakened from a closing rate of R10.72/A$1 on 30 June 2021 to R11.25/A$1 on 30 June 2022. This impacted on the translation of balances from Australian dollar to Rand on consolidation as well as the average rate at which income statement items were translated at. These changes resulted in a foreign exchange movement translation gain of R742 million for the 2022 year.
Commodity price sensitivity
The profitability of the group’s operations, and the cash flows generated by those operations, are mainly affected by changes in the market price of gold, and in the case of Hidden Valley, silver as well. Harmony entered into derivative contracts to manage the variability in cash flows from the group’s production, in order to create cash certainty and protect the group against lower commodity prices. The general limit for gold hedging currently set by the Board is 20% for a 24-month period. The limit set by the Board is 50% of silver exposure over a 24-month period. The audit and risk committee reviews the details of the programme quarterly. Refer to note 8 and the fair value determination section below for further detail on these contracts.
Interest rate risk
During the 2022 year the US Federal Reserve increased the fund rate by 150 basis points. Similarly the SARB increased the repo rate by 125 basis points causing the higher interest rates to have a non-favourable impact on the group's cost of debt. This was offset by lower debt balances. The SOFR (Secured Overnight Financing Rate) has been used for the refinanced US$ borrowings, as opposed to LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate) which was used for the historic borrowings. This due to LIBOR being phased out. During the refinancing process, the group was able to secure slightly improved margins on its facilities. Even though it can be expected that the increase in the repo rate will result in a higher cost of debt as financial institutions will increase their lending rates, the group has not entered into interest rate swap agreements. The audit and risk committee reviews the group's risk exposure quarterly.

13. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES continued
Credit risk
Financial instruments which are subject to credit risk are restricted cash and investments, derivative financial instruments and cash and cash equivalents, all of which are invested with financial institutions that meet the group's policy requirements for credit quality, as well as trade and other receivables (excluding non-financial instruments). In assessing the creditworthiness of local institutions, management uses the national scale long-term ratings.
At 30 June 2022, the rating of major SA banks remained unchanged at AA+, which is in line with the group's credit risk policy. An assessment of the expected credit losses (ECLs) for the financial assets measured at amortised costs at 30 June 2022 resulted in an immaterial amount for each instrument. The credit rating of the group's Australian counterparts remained unchanged at A+ resulting in the assessed ECL remaining immaterial.
Management will continue to review the underlying strength of the economies we operate in as well as the creditworthiness of the financial institutions and make any changes deemed necessary to safeguard the assets and reduce the credit risk.
Capital risk management
The weakening of the Rand has resulted in foreign exchange translation losses on foreign borrowings, being the major contributor to the group's increased net debt compared to 30 June 2021. It remains the group's objective to adhere to a conservative approach to debt and maintain low levels of gearing.
Net debt is as follows:

Fair value determination
The fair value levels of hierarchy are as follows:
| | | | | |
Level 1: | Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets |
Level 2: | Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset, either directly or indirectly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is derived from prices) |
Level 3: | Inputs for the asset that are not based on observable market data (that is unobservable inputs) |

(a) The majority of the balance relates to the equity investment in Rand Mutual Assurance. The fair value of the investment was estimated with reference to an independent valuation. A combination of the "Embedded Valuation" and "Net Asset Value" techniques were applied to revalue the investment as at 30 June 2022. In evaluating the group's share of the business, common practice marketability and minority discounts as well as additional specific risk discounts were applied. There are no inputs to the valuation that a reasonably possible change would result in a material change in the fair value of the investment.
(b) The majority of the level 2 valued assets are directly derived from the Top 40 index on the JSE, and are discounted at market interest rates. This relates to equity-linked deposits in the group's environmental rehabilitation trust funds. The level 1 valued assets comprise of listed equity securities designated as fair value through other comprehensive income instruments. The remaining balance of the environmental trust funds is carried at amortised cost and therefore not disclosed here.

13. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES continued
(c) The mark-to-market remeasurement of the derivative contracts was determined as follows:
•Foreign exchange contracts comprise of zero cost collars and FECs: The zero cost collars were valued using a Black-Scholes valuation technique derived from spot Rand/US$ exchange rate inputs, implied volatilities on the Rand/US$ exchange rate, Rand/US$ inter-bank interest rates and discounted at a market interest rate (zero-coupon interest rate curve). The value of the FECs is derived from the forward Rand/US$ exchange rate and discounted at a market interest rate (zero coupon interest rate curve)
•Rand gold contracts (forward sale contracts): spot Rand/US$ exchange rate, Rand and dollar interest rates (forward points), spot US$ gold price, differential between the US interest rate and gold lease interest rate which is discounted at a market interest rate
•US$ gold contracts (forward sale contracts): spot US$ gold price, differential between the US interest rate and gold lease interest rate and discounted at a market interest rate
•Silver contracts (zero cost collars): a Black-Scholes valuation technique, derived from spot US$ silver price, strike price, implied volatilities, time to maturity and interest rates and discounted at a market interest rate investments
(d) At 30 June 2022, the fair value movement was calculated using a discounted cash flow model, taking into account forecasted dividend payments over the estimated repayment period of the loan at a rate of 9.3% (2021: 7.9%). A 99 basis point change in the discount rate, which would represent a reasonably possible change based on expected movements in lending rates, would not cause a material change in the fair value of the loan. The loan balance forms part of other non-current assets in the balance sheet.
(e) The contingent consideration liability related to the Mponeng operation (refer to note 11) was determined using the expected gold production profile for Mponeng at a post-tax real rate of 10.2% (2021: 10.3%). Should the expected gold production profile increase by 7.6% or decrease by 7.6%, the contingent consideration liability would increase by R251 million (2021: R208 million at 7%) or decrease by R189 million (June 2021: R183 million at 7%), respectively. This represents reasonably expected changes which were determined based on the standard deviation of previous years' production of the Mponeng operation. No other reasonably expected changes in key unobservable inputs would have caused a material change in the fair value of the liability.
The carrying values (less any impairment allowance) of short-term financial instruments are assumed to approximate their fair values. This includes restricted cash and investments carried at amortised cost. The fair values of borrowings are not materially different to their carrying amounts since the interest payable on those borrowings is at floating interest rates. The fair value of borrowings is based on discounted cash flows using a current borrowing rate. The determination of the fair values are level 3 in the fair value hierarchy due to the use of unobservable inputs, including own credit risk.
14. ADDITIONAL CASH FLOW DISCLOSURES
Cash generated by operations decreased year on year primarily due to the higher production costs incurred and the trade and other payables outflow in comparison to an inflow in 2021, as a result of the inclusion of the results of the Mponeng operations. Refer to note 4 for further detail.
The decrease was offset by the increase in revenue and gains on derivatives as well as the trade and other receivables inflow. Refer to note 3 and 8 for further detail.
