(a)The 2025 figure primarily relates to fully depreciated assets derecognised at Hidden Valley, and right-of-use assets at
various operations. The 2024 figure primarily relates to fully depreciated assets derecognised at the Hidden Valley,
Tshepong North, Moab Khotsong and Doornkop operations.
(b)Included in additions for 2025 is an amount of R64 million (2024: R84 million) for capitalised depreciation associated with
stripping activities at the Hidden Valley operations.
(c)Refer to note 8 for the total loss on scrapping recognised. Both the 2024 and 2025 amounts primarily relates to the
Tshepong North and Kusasalethu operations.
(d)Refer to note 24 for details on the adjustment to the rehabilitation asset.
(e)During the 2025 year an amount of R1 108 million (2024: R761 million) was transferred to mining assets at Hidden Valley.
This related to ongoing mining development costs. During the 2025 year the Doornkop 207 Level and Kareerand Tailings
Storage Facility projects were completed and amounts of R643 million and R1 661 million, respectively, were transferred
to mining assets.

Currently the assets classified as undeveloped properties are the Wafi-Golpu Project, Target North and the Eva Copper Project.
For further details regarding the permitting process and other developments of the Wafi-Golpu Project, refer to note 20. For
further details regarding the Eva Copper Project, please refer to the mining assets under construction section above. No further
developments have occurred post the impairment in the 2024 year for Target North.

Disclosure of Gold Price, Silver Price, Exchange Rates and Gold Resource Value Assumptions During the years under review, the group calculated the recoverable amounts (generally fair value less costs to sell) of CGUs for
which indicators of impairment were identified (refer to note 5). These recoverable amounts are based on updated life-of-mine
plans and the following relevant assumptions:

Disclosure of Sensitivity Analysis - Impairment of Assets Sensitivity analysis – impairment of assets
Commodity prices
One of the most significant assumptions that influence the LOM plans and therefore impairment assessments is the expected
commodity prices. Management determined a 10.8% decrease (2024: 11.9%) and 29.1% increase (2024: 11.9% ) in gold price
assumptions as reasonably possible changes. In 2025, management determined a reasonably possible change in gold prices
based on determining reasonably possible adjusted long-term US$ gold price assumptions using the standard deviation of
market analysts' forecasted long-term US$ gold price assumptions. These reasonably possible adjusted long-term US$ gold
price forecasts was then compared to Harmony's long-term US$ gold price assumption. In 2024, management determined a
reasonably possible change in gold price assumptions based on the standard deviation of market analysts' forecasted long-term
gold price assumptions.
The 29.1% increase in the gold price assumptions would have resulted in no impairments being recorded. A 10.8% decrease in
the gold price assumptions (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 impairments being recorded as at 30 June 2025:

Production profile
In addition to the expected commodity prices in 2025, the production profiles of Target 1 and Tshepong South have also been
assessed as sensitive assumptions that influences the LOM plans, and therefore the impairment assessments of these CGUs.
For Target 1, the recoverable amount was determined as R4 212 million as at 30 June 2025. Management determined that
should the production profile of Target 1 decrease by 8.6% (with all other variables held constant), this would result in the
recoverable amount being equal to the post-tax carrying amount of R2 065 million as at 30 June 2025.
For Tshepong South, the recoverable amount was determined as R3 314 million as at 30 June 2025. Management determined
that should the production profile of Tshepong South decrease by 5.3% (with all other variables held constant), this would result
in the recoverable amount being equal to the post-tax carrying amount of R2 343 million as at 30 June 2025.
The production profiles of the other CGUs tested for impairment are not considered to be sensitive assumptions. This is based
on the fact that a 15.0% decrease in these production profiles (with all other variables held constant) would not result in any
impairments being recognised.
