1The carrying value of cash and other short-term investments is considered to reflect its fair value.
2Determined with a discounted cash flow model using market related interest rates.
3The fair value of these instruments approximates their carrying value, due to their short-term nature.
4Based on quoted market price for the same instrument. The ZAR bonds have been classified as a level 2 fair value measurement due to the relatively low level of liquidity in the local debt market.
5Determined using discounted cash flows modelling forecasted earnings, capital expenditure and debt cash flows of the underlying business, based on the forecasted assumptions of inflation, exchange rates, commodity prices and an appropriate WACC for the region.
6Presented as part of Other long-term investments in the Statement of financial position.
7Carrying value includes interest and unamortised loan costs.
8The fair value of the amortised cost component of the US$ Convertible Bond is based on the quoted price of the instrument after separating the fair value of the derivative component.
9Recognised under IFRS 16.

*

Contractual cash flows include interest payments.

**

The Long-term debt maturity analysis was revised to allocate the US$750 million convertible bond contractual cash flows to the earliest maturity period presented to reflect the counterparty call option which is exercisable at any time. Refer to note 1.1. An amount of R9,4 billion is included in the Contractual cash flows and within one year categories above. The prevailing conversion price at 1 July 2023, the date of the presumed conversion, was US$19,8595. Bondholders would realise a loss when exercising their conversion rights at this date given that the average share price traded significantly lower than the conversion price, and conversion at this date is therefore considered unlikely. Previously, the maturity analysis was presented on the basis that the convertible bond is repaid in accordance with its maturity date of November 2027. The amounts previously included in the maturity analysis relating to the convertible bond were as follows: R17,0 billion under Contractual cash flows, R0,6 billion under Within one year, R1,3 billion under One to three years and R15,1 billion under Three to five years.
