Notes to the reviewed condensed group interim financial statements
1. CORPORATE BACKGROUND
Exxaro, a public company incorporated in South Africa, is a diversified resources group with interests in
the coal (controlled and non-controlled), energy (controlled) and ferrous (controlled and non-controlled)
markets. These reviewed condensed group interim financial statements as at and for the
six-month
period ended 30 June 2023 (interim financial statements) comprise the company and its subsidiaries
(together referred to as the group) and the group’s interest in associates and joint ventures.
2. BASIS OF PREPARATION
2.1 Statement of compliance
The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with and contain the information required by IFRS (as issued by the IASB), IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting, Financial Pronouncements (as issued by the Financial Reporting Standards Council), the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides (as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee), the requirements of the Companies Act and the JSE Listings Requirements.
The interim financial statements have been prepared under the supervision of Mr PA Koppeschaar CA(SA), SAICA registration number: 00038621.
The interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the group annual financial
statements as at and for the year ended
31 December 2022, which have been prepared in accordance
with IFRS. The interim financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for
financial instruments, share-based payments and biological assets, which are measured at fair value.
The interim financial statements of the Exxaro group were authorised for issue by the board of directors on 15 August 2023.
2.2 Judgements and estimates
Management made judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The significant judgements and the key source of estimation uncertainty were similar to those applied to the group annual financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2022.
3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND OTHER COMPLIANCE MATTERS
The accounting policies applied are in terms of IFRS and are consistent with those of the previous
financial year. The policy for recognising and measuring income taxes in the interim reporting period is
consistent with that applied in the previous interim reporting period as described in
3.1 below. A number
of new or amended standards became effective for the current reporting period. The group did not have
to make any significant changes to its accounting policies nor make retrospective adjustments as a
result of adopting these standards.
3.1 Income tax
Income tax expense is recognised based on management’s estimate of the weighted average effective annual tax rate expected for the full financial year. The estimated weighted average effective annual tax rate used for the six-month period ended 30 June 2023 is 19.6%, compared to 17.9% for the six-month period ended 30 June 2022.
The main reconciling items, between the current standard tax rate of 27% and the effective tax rate,
result from the share of income of
equity-accounted investments and dividend income (-8.9%).
3.2 Impact of new, amended or revised standards issued but not yet effective
New accounting standards, amendments to accounting standards and interpretations issued, that are
relevant to the group, but not yet effective on
30 June 2023, have not been early adopted, except for the
amendment to IAS 1 Presentation of financial statements relating to non-current liabilities with
covenants. The group continuously evaluates the impact of these standards and amendments.

20.1 Fair value hierarchy
The table below analyses recurring fair value measurements for financial assets and financial liabilities. These fair value measurements are categorised into different levels in the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs to the valuation techniques used. The different levels are defined as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the group can access at the measurement date.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable.
Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

Transfers
The group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the transfer has occurred. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 nor between Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.
Valuation process applied
The fair value computations of investments are performed by the group's corporate finance department, reporting to the finance director, on a six-monthly basis. The valuation reports are discussed with the chief operating decision maker and the audit committee in accordance with the group's reporting governance.
Current derivative financial instruments
Level 2 fair values for simple over-the-counter derivative financial instruments are based on market quotes. These quotes are assessed for reasonability by discounting estimated future cash flows using the market rate for similar instruments at measurement date.
Environmental rehabilitation funds, portfolio investments and deposit facilities
Level 2 fair values for debt instruments held in the environmental rehabilitation funds, portfolio investments and deposit facilities are based on quotes provided by the financial institutions at which the funds are invested at measurement date.
Interest rate swaps
Level 2 fair values for interest rate swaps are based on valuations provided by the financial institutions with whom the swaps have been entered into, and take into account credit risk. The valuations are assessed for reasonability by discounting the estimated future cash flows based on observable ZAR swap curves.
Valuation techniques used in the determination of fair values within Level 3 of the hierarchy
Chifeng is classified within a Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as there is no quoted market price or observable price available for this investment. This unlisted investment is valued as the present value of the estimated future cash flows, using a DCF model. The valuation technique is consistent to that used in previous reporting periods.
20.2 Hedge accounting: Cash flow hedges
The following tables detail the financial position and performance of the interest rate swaps outstanding at the end of the reporting period and their related hedged items.
