NO CHANGE STATEMENT, AVAILABILITY OF AFS AND GUARANTORS’ AFS AND NOTICE OF AGM
No change statement
With regard to the audited results of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2021, shareholders and
noteholders are advised that the Company’s summarised annual financial statements, which forms part of
the notice of annual general meeting, have been distributed to shareholders today, 29 April 2022, and
contains no modifications to the audited results which were published on SENS on 2 March 2022. We further
confirm that there have been no changes to the auditor’s report which was referenced in the Company’s
audited results announcement and made available at the Company’s registered office on the same date as
the release of the audited results.
Annual financial statements
The Group annual financial statements are available at https://www.ftp.aeciworld-online.com/pdf/IR-
annual-results/AECI2021fullafs.pdf and are also available for inspection at the Company’s registered office.
Noteholders should note that the annual financial statements for each of the guarantors (namely AECI Mining
Limited (AECI Mining), AECI Mauritius Ltd, Chemical Services Limited and Much Asphalt Proprietary Limited
(Much Asphalt)) to the Company’s Domestic Medium Term Note Programme for the year ended 31 December
2021 (Guarantors’ AFS) will be available for inspection at the Company’s registered office from today.
Noteholders are further advised that the audit report on the annual financial statements for the year ended
31 December 2021 of each of the guarantors was unqualified, with no modifications applicable.
In addition, the Company wishes to advise noteholders of the following restatements:
1) Restatements to the previously published audited annual financial statements for the years ended
31 March 2020 and 31 March 2019 of AECI Mining: The statements of financial position were restated
due to the current loans from subsidiaries R319 million (2020: R301 million) being incorrectly
classified as non-current in prior periods. IAS 1 allows a loan to be classified as non-current if the
Company has the unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability after the reporting period.
As the terms of these loans are repayable on demand, the requirement was not met and it was
therefore concluded that the classification was incorrect in prior periods. The restatement did not
have any cash flow impact. The balance of the same loans as at 31 December 2019 was loans from
subsidiaries of R281 million.
2) Restatements to the previously published audited annual financial statements for the year ended 31
March 2020 of Much Asphalt: The statement of cash flows was restated as a result of the
reclassification of the settlement of loan from financing activities to investing activities due to an
error in the classification in the prior year. The effect of the restatement is an increase of R40,6 million
in investing activities and a decrease of R40,6 million in financing activities in the prior period. The
restatement does not have an impact on the total cash movement for year in the prior period.
Shareholders and noteholders are referred to the annual financial statements of AECI Mining and
Much Asphalt for full details of the restatements.
