 The results have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS).

+   Restated due to change in accounting policy relating to deferred stripping. See note on accounting policies.

§   During the quarter, 36 666 ounces of the Loulo forward sales were rolled out longer-dated. Although the revenue was received at the spot price, because we have changed the initial delivery date, these contracts are now deemed speculative. This gives rise to a non-cash charge to the income statement calculated as the difference between the spot price and the strike price of the contract.
