The group’s reportable segments are operating segments that are differentiated by the activities that each undertakes and the products they manufacture and market (referred to as business segments). The group evaluates the performance of its reportable segments based on earnings before interest and tax (EBIT). The operating model structure reflects how the results are reported to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM). The CODM for Sasol are the Joint Presidents and Chief Executive Officers. Operating business units Mining Mining is responsible for securing coal feedstock for the Southern African value chain, mainly for gasification, but also to generate electricity and steam. Coal is sold for gasification and utility purposes to Secunda Synfuels, for utility purposes to Sasolburg Operations; and to third parties in the export market. Mining sells coal under both long- and short-term contracts at a price determinable from the agreements. Turnover is recognised upon delivery of the coal to the customer, which, in accordance with the related contract terms is the point at which the control passes to the customer. Prices are fixed or determinable and collectability is probable. The date of delivery related to Mining is determined in accordance with the contractual agreements entered into with customers. These are summarised as follows: Delivery terms Control passes to the customer Free on Board At the point in time when the coal is loaded onto the vessel at Richards Bay Coal Terminal; the customer is responsible for shipping and handling costs. The related costs of sales are recognised in the same period as the supply of the coal and include any shipping and handling costs incurred. All inter-segment sales are conducted at market related prices. Exploration and Production International Exploration and Production International (E&PI) develops and manages the group’s upstream interests in oil and gas exploration and production in Mozambique, South Africa, Canada and Gabon. E&PI sells Mozambican gas under long-term contracts to both Sasol and external customers, condensate on short-term contracts and Canadian gas into the market at spot prices. Oil is sold to customers under annual contracts. Turnover is recognised upon delivery to the customer, which, in accordance with the related contract terms is the point at which control passes to the customer. Prices are determinable from the agreements and on the open market. Delivery terms Control passes to the customer On-delivery At the point in time when the: Gas reaches the inlet coupling of the customer’s pipeline. Condensate is loaded onto the customer’s truck. These are the points when the customer controls the gas or condensate, or directs the use of it. The customer is responsible for transportation and handling costs. Strategic business units Performance Chemicals Performance Chemicals markets commodity and differentiated performance chemicals. The key product lines are organics, waxes and advanced materials. These are produced in various Sasol production facilities around the world. Base Chemicals Base Chemicals markets commodity chemicals based on the group’s upstream Fischer-Tropsch, ethylene, propylene and ammonia value chains. The key product lines are polymers, solvents and ammonia-based explosives and fertilisers. These are produced in various Sasol production facilities around the world. The Base and Performance Chemicals businesses sell the majority of their products under contracts at prices determinable from such agreements. Turnover is recognised upon delivery which, in accordance with the related contract terms, is the point at which control transfer to the customer. Prices are determinable and collectability is probable. The point of delivery is determined in accordance with the contractual agreements entered into with customers which are as follows: Delivery terms Control passes to the customer: Ex-tank sales At the point in time when products are loaded into the customer’s vehicle or unloaded from the seller’s storage tanks. Ex-works At the point in time when products are loaded into the customer’s vehicle or unloaded at the seller’s premises. Carriage Paid To (CPT); Cost Insurance Freight (CIF); Carriage and Insurance Paid (CIP); and Cost Freight Railage (CFR) Products — CPT: At the point in time when the product is delivered to a specified location or main carrier. Products — CIF, CIP and CFR: At the point in time when the products are loaded into the transport vehicle. Carriage, freight and insurance: Over the period of transporting the products to the customer’s nominated place — where the seller is responsible for carriage, freight and insurance costs, which are included in the contract. Free on Board At the point in time when products are loaded into the transport vehicle; the customer is responsible for shipping and handling costs. Delivered at Place At the point in time when products are delivered to and signed for by the customer. Consignment Sales As and when products are consumed by the customer. Energy Energy is responsible for the sales and marketing of liquid fuels, pipeline gas and electricity. In South Africa, Energy sells approximately nine billion liters of liquid fuels annually, blended from fuel components produced by the Secunda Synfuels operations, crude oil refined at Natref, as well as some products purchased from other refiners. Energy markets approximately 55 billion standard cubic feet (bscf) of natural and methane-rich gas a year. Energy sells liquid fuel products under both short- and long-term agreements for both retail sales and commercial sales, including sales to other oil companies. The prices for retail sales are regulated and fixed by South African law. For commercial sales and sales to other oil companies, the prices are fixed and determinable according to the specific contract, with periodic price adjustments. Turnover for the supply of fuel is based on measurement through a flow-meter into customers’ tanks. Turnover is derived from the sale of goods produced by the operating facilities and is recognised when, in accordance with the related contract terms, control passes to the customer. Prices are fixed or determinable and collectability is probable. Shipping and handling costs are included in turnover when billed to customers in conjunction with the sale of the products. Turnover is also derived from the rendering of engineering services to external partners in joint ventures upon the proof of completion of the service. Gas is sold under long-term contracts at a price determinable from the supply agreements in accordance with the pricing methodology used by the National Energy Regulator of South Africa (NERSA). Gas analysis and tests of the specifications and content are performed prior to delivery. Turnover is recognised under the following arrangements: Service/good Delivery terms Control passes to the customer: Sale of fuel On-delivery At the point in time when the fuel is delivered onto the rail tank car, road tank truck or into the customer pipeline. Free Carrier At the point in time when the goods are unloaded to the port of shipment; Sasol is not responsible for the freight and insurance. Carriage Paid To Products: At the point in time when the product is delivered to a specified location or main carrier. Sale of gas On-delivery At the point in time when the gas has reached the inlet coupling of the customer’s pipeline. Sale of electricity On-delivery At the point in time when the electricity passes through the supply points to the customer’s transmission line. The Energy business also develops, implements and manages the group’s international business ventures based on Sasol’s proprietary gas-to-liquids (GTL) technology. Sasol holds 49% in ORYX GTL in Qatar, and an indirect 10% share in Escravos GTL in Nigeria. Group Functions Group Functions includes head office and centralised treasury operations. |

Statement of compliance | 1 Statement of compliance The consolidated financial statements are prepared in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and Interpretations of those standards, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee, Financial Reporting Pronouncements as issued by the Financial Reporting Standards Council, the JSE Listings Requirements and the South African Companies Act, 2008. The consolidated financial statements were approved for issue by the Board of Directors on 28 October 2019 and will be presented to shareholders at the Annual General Meeting on 27 November 2019. Basis of preparation of financial results The consolidated financial statements are prepared using the historic cost convention except that, certain items, including derivative instruments, liabilities for cash-settled share-based payment schemes, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and financial assets designated at fair value through other comprehensive income, are stated at fair value. The consolidated financial results are presented in rand, which is Sasol Limited’s functional and presentation currency, rounded to the nearest million. The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis. The comparative figures are reclassified or restated as necessary to afford a proper and more meaningful comparison of results as set out in the affected notes to the financial statements. Certain additional disclosure has been provided in respect of the current year, as described on page 163 “Pro-forma financial information”. To the extent practicable, comparative information has also been provided. Accounting policies The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are in terms of IFRS and are consistent with those applied in the consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2018, except for the adoption of IFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’, IFRS 15 ‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers’ and an amendment to IAS 23 ‘Borrowing Costs’ with effect from 1 July 2018. Both IFRS 9 and IFRS 15 were adopted using the modified transition approach, where the comparative financial information is not restated as permitted by the standard. The amendment to IAS 23 is applied prospectively. These accounting policies are consistently applied throughout the group. Accounting standards, interpretations and amendments to published accounting standards IFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’ IFRS 9 provides a single classification and measurement approach for financial assets that reflects the business model in which they are managed and their cash flow characteristics. The group’s financial assets are classified as measured at amortised cost, fair value through profit or loss, or fair value through other comprehensive income. The group elected to recognise the fair value gains and losses on its current equity investments through other comprehensive income as they are held for long-term strategic purpose. Due to the limited unlisted investments held, this change in measurement basis from amortised cost to fair value had an insignificant effect on Sasol’s accounting, and therefore no transition adjustment is presented. For financial liabilities the existing classification and measurement requirements of IAS 39 will remain the same. Impairments of financial assets classified as measured at amortised cost are recognised on an expected loss basis which incorporates forward-looking information when assessing credit risk, with the expected losses recognised in profit or loss. The effect of the change was inconsequential due to the stringent debtor management policies currently applied by Sasol, and therefore no transition adjustment is presented. Refer to note 40 for the expected credit loss calculation. The adoption of IFRS 9 did not have a significant impact on the group’s accounting policies relating to financial assets and financial liabilities. The IFRS 9 hedge accounting requirements are not effective for the group until the International Accounting Standards Board’s macro hedging project is finalised. IFRS 15 ‘Revenue from contracts with customers’ Under IFRS 15, revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when a performance obligation is satisfied by transferring promised goods or services to customers. Goods or services are transferred when the customer obtains control of the goods or services. The transfer of control of Sasol’s energy and chemical products usually coincides with title passing to the customer and the customer taking physical possession, with the group’s performance obligations primarily satisfied at a point in time. Amounts of revenue recognised relating to performance obligations over time are not significant. The accounting for revenue under IFRS 15 therefore represents an inconsequential change from the group’s previous practice for recognising revenue from sales with customers, and therefore no transition adjustment is presented. An analysis of revenue from contracts with customers by product is presented on note 2. Amounts presented for comparative periods include revenues determined in accordance with the group’s previous accounting policies, but the differences are inconsequential. IAS 23 ‘Borrowing Costs’ The amendment to IAS 23 clarifies that if any specific borrowing remains outstanding after the related asset is ready for its intended use or sale, that borrowing becomes part of the funds that an entity borrows generally when calculating the capitalisation rate on general borrowings. Previously, if any specific borrowing remained outstanding after the related asset was ready for its intended use or sale, Sasol recognised the finance costs related to this borrowing in profit and loss. The adoption of the amendment has been applied prospectively from 1 July 2018 and had a material impact on the group’s earnings for the period as Sasol has a large number of projects to which borrowing costs are capitalised. The impact of applying the amendment for the period ended 30 June 2019 is: Results Adjustment Results Rm Rm Rm Non-current assets Property, plant, equipment and assets under construction 358 135 1 998 360 133 Income statement Finance costs (3 251 ) 1 998 (1 253 ) Accounting standards, interpretations and amendments not yet effective IFRS 16 ‘Leases’ (Effective for the group from 1 July 2019) IFRS 16 introduces a single lease accounting model and requires a lessee to recognise assets and liabilities for all leases with a term of more than 12 months, unless the underlying asset is of low value. A lessee is required to recognise a right of use asset representing its right to use the underlying leased asset and a lease liability representing its obligation to make lease payments. The finance charge to unwind the lease liability and depreciation of the leased asset are recognised in the income statement based on the implied interest rate and contract terms respectively. This standard does not apply to leases to explore for or use minerals, oils, natural gas and similar non-regenerative resources, including the intangible right to explore for those natural resources and rights to use the land in which those natural resources are contained. Previously, the group planned to adopt the standard from 1 July 2019 on a full retrospective basis and was in the process of completing this adoption method. However, with the new standard indirectly impacting the accounting of a number of other business areas, including the valuation of inventory and the value-in-use of cash generating units, the group decided from a cost/benefit perspective that it would be preferable to apply the modified retrospective approach as applied by almost all of our peers. This approach allow the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard to be recognised at the date of initial application, with no restatement of comparative financial information required. The identification and classification of leases and the analysis of the effect on the group’s consolidated financial statements have largely been completed. A new software program has been introduced to manage and measure leases going forward and the results from the solution, used to determine the impact disclosed below, is currently being assessed. Accounting policies and processes have been updated and the impact on key performance indicators and financial metrics have been quantified. The adoption of the standard will have a material effect on the group’s financial statements, significantly increasing the group’s recognised assets and liabilities. Upon adoption, the most significant impact will be the present value of the operating lease commitments as per note 37, which are not currently recognised on the statement of financial position and provides an indication of the magnitude of assets and liabilities that will be recognised on the statement of financial position on adoption. We expect an increase in the depreciation expense and also in cash flows from operating activities as the lease payments will be reflected as financing outflows in our cash flow statement. The discount rates applied on operating leases in determining the lease liabilities recognised are based on the incremental borrowing rates as appropriate for each lease considering factors such as the lessee country of operation, lease term, nature of asset and commencement date. Currently across the group, the incremental borrowing rates applicable to the significant portion of the undiscounted lease cash flows range from 8,2% – 11,5% (South Africa), 0,9% –3,6% (Eurasia) and 3,7% –5,6% (United States). Based on the group’s current assessment, the impact on 2020 is expected to be as follows: · Between R8,4 billion and R9,0 billion of additional lease liabilities would be recognised in the statement of financial position and a corresponding right-of-use asset of between R8,4 billion and R9,0 billion at 1 July 2019. · Net income before interest and tax would increase between zero and R0,4 billion and interest expense increased by between R0,3 billion and R0,6 billion, the net results having an immaterial impact on earnings. Depreciation would increase by between R1,4 billion and R1,7 billion. · The additional lease liabilities are expected to add approximately 5% on gearing. |

Group performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time and over time, however the group mainly satisfies its performance obligations at a point in time. Revenue recognised reflects the consideration that the group expects to be entitled to for each distinct performance obligation after deducting indirect taxes, rebates and trade discounts and consists primarily of the sale of oil, natural gas and chemical products, services rendered, license fees and royalties. The group allocates revenue based on stand-alone selling price. The group enters into exchange agreements with the same counterparties for the purchase and sale of inventory that are entered into in contemplation of one another. When the items exchanged are similar in nature, these transactions are combined and accounted for as a single exchange transaction. The exchange is recognised at the carrying amount of the inventory transferred. Revenue from arrangements that are not considered contracts with customers, mainly pertaining to franchise rentals, use of fuel tanks and fuel storage, is presented as revenue from other contracts. The period between the transfer of the goods and services to the customer and the payment by the customer does not exceed 12 months and the group does not adjust for time value of money. For further information on revenue recognition, refer to Segment information on pages 12 to 13. IAS 18 applicable to prior periods: Revenue is recognised at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable net of indirect taxes, rebates and trade discounts and consists primarily of the sale of products, services rendered, licence fees and royalties. Revenue is recognised when the following criteria are met: · evidence of an arrangement exists; · delivery has occurred or services have been rendered and the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the purchaser; · transaction costs can be reliably measured; · the selling price is fixed or determinable; and · collectability is reasonably assured. The timing of revenue recognition is as follows. Revenue from: · the sale of products is recognised when the group has substantially transferred all the risks and rewards of ownership and no longer retains continuing managerial involvement associated with ownership or effective control; · services rendered is based on the stage of completion of the transaction, based on the proportion that costs incurred to date bear to the total cost of the project; and · licence fees and royalties are recognised on an accrual basis. The group enters into exchange agreements with the same counterparties for the purchase and sale of inventory that are entered into in contemplation of one another. When the items exchanged are similar in nature, these transactions are combined and accounted for as a single exchange transaction. The exchange is recognised at the carrying amount of the inventory transferred. |

Recoverable amounts are estimated for individual assets or, where an individual asset cannot generate cash inflows independently, the recoverable amount is determined for the larger cash generating unit to which it belongs. Impairment calculations The recoverable amount of the assets assessed for impairment is determined based on the higher of the fair value less costs to sell or value-in-use calculations. Key assumptions relating to this valuation include the discount rate and cash flows. Future cash flows are estimated based on financial budgets covering a five year period and extrapolated over the useful life of the assets to reflect the long term plans for the group using the estimated growth rate for the specific business or project. Where reliable cash flow projections are available for a period longer than five years, those budgeted cash flows are used in the impairment calculation. The estimated future cash flows and discount rate are post-tax, based on the assessment of current risks applicable to the specific entity and country in which it operates. Discounting post-tax cash flows at a post-tax discount rate yields the same results as discount pre-tax cash flows at a pre-tax discount rate, assuming there are no significant temporary tax differences.

Areas of judgement: Management determines the expected performance of the assets based on past performance and its expectations of market developments. The weighted average growth rates used are consistent with the increase in the geographic segment long-term Producer Price Index. Estimations are based on a number of key assumptions such as volume, price and product mix which will create a basis for future growth and gross margin. These assumptions are set in relation to historic figures and external reports. If necessary, these cash flows are then adjusted to take into account any changes in assumptions or operating conditions that have been identified subsequent to the preparation of the budgets. The weighted average cost of capital rate (WACC) is derived from a pricing model. The variables used in the model are established on the basis of management judgement and current market conditions. Management judgement is also applied in estimating future cash flows and defining of cash-generating units. These values are sensitive to the cash flows projected for the periods for which detailed forecasts are not available and to the assumptions regarding the long-term sustainability of the cash flows thereafter. Determining as to whether, and by how much, cost incurred on a project is abnormal and needs to be scrapped involves judgement. The factors considered by management include the scale and complexity of the project, the technology being applied and guidance from experts in terms of what constitute abnormal wastage on the project.

The impairments were driven by an increase in capital cost for the Lake Charles Chemicals Project (LCCP) and lower US ethylene and global mono-ethylene glycol price assumptions as at 30 June 2019. The upstream ethane cracker is a corporate asset and the increase in its capital cost has an impact on the downstream derivative units. All cash generating units linked to the LCCP were assessed for impairment. Base Chemicals — Ammonia value chain In 2019, an impairment of R3,3 billion was recognised on our Ammonia value chain mainly as a result of lower international ammonia sales price assumptions in the short- to medium-term and increased gas feedstock prices in the longer term. Sasol Canada — Shale gas assets Our shale gas assets in Canada were impaired by a further R1,9 billion (CAD181 million) as at 30 June 2019 to a carrying value of R22 million (CAD2 million), impacted by the depressed Canadian gas price environment. This is aligned with the anticipated fair value. We remain committed to divest from these assets as part of our strategic portfolio optimisation. These assets were previously impaired (2018 – R2,8 billion (CAD281 million); 2016 – R9,9 billion (CAD880 million); 2015 – R1,3 billion (CAD133 million); 2014 – R5,3 billion (CAD540 million)), mainly due to the declining gas prices. Base Chemicals — Chlor Vinyls value chain In 2018, the full carrying value of our Chlor Vinyls value chain in South Africa was impaired by R5,2 billion due to the continued and sustained strengthening of the exchange rate outlook and the resulting impact on Base Chemicals margins. A structural change in the integrated ethylene value chain led to the extension of the useful life of the Chlor Vinyls CGU in Sasolburg from 2034 to 2050. Based on the sustained improvement in the impairment calculation due to the useful life extension, R949 million of the previous impairment recognised was reversed on 31 December 2018. Significant scrapping of assets Lake Charles Chemicals Project In 2019, we scrapped R682 million (US$48 million) of cost incurred on the LCCP, mainly relating to rework that was required on the Low Density Polyethylene compression motor that was damaged and a number of heat exchangers that had to be either repaired or replaced due to quality issues. Management considered the scale and complexity of the project, the technology being applied and input from experts to determine the cost incurred on the project which were scrapped. Significant impairments of assets in prior periods Sasol Petroleum Mozambique — PSA In 2018, an impairment of R1,1 billion (US$94 million) was recognised in respect of the PSA asset. The project was still in an early stage of development with the impairment largely driven by lower than expected oil volumes and weaker long-term macroeconomic assumptions. A discount rate of 13,23% (2017: 12,16%) was used which takes into account the project’s exposure to both South Africa and Mozambique operating and fiscal environment. Base Chemicals — Lake Charles Chemicals Project In 2016, following the announcement of the US$2 billion cost overrun on the LCCP, we recognised an impairment of R956 million (US$65 million) on the Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) unit. In 2017, following a detailed review of the plant economics and on evaluating the results of benchmarking of similar Sasol assets, the useful life of the asset was extended from 25 years to 50 years. Based on this, the previous impairment of R849 million (US$65 million) was reversed. US Phenolics In 2017 the US Phenolics assets were impaired by R527 million (US$38,4 million), in addition to R165 million (US$11,2 million) impaired in 2016. These impairments were largely driven by lower forecasted profit margins and lower volumes. Significant scrapping of assets in prior periods US Gas-To-Liquids (GTL) At 31 December 2017 we scrapped the remaining capitalised FEED costs relating to our US GTL assets of R1,1 billion (US$83 million), following our formal strategic decision not to pursue new GTL ventures in future. This is in addition to an impairment recognised in 2017 of R1,7 billion (US$130 million) based on the delay of the US GTL project and the uncertainty around the probability and timing of project execution. Sensitivity to changes in assumptions: Management has considered the sensitivity of the impairment calculations to various key assumptions such as crude oil and gas prices, commodity prices and exchange rates. These sensitivities have been taken into consideration in determining the required impairments and reversals of impairments. The following assets are particularly impacted by changes in key assumptions: Performance Chemicals — Tetramerization and EO/EG value chains The Tetramerization and EO/EG value chains are highly sensitive to changes in assumptions. A 5% change in the ethane price assumption could change the recoverable amount of these value chains by approximately R85 million (US$6 million) and R774 million (US$55 million), respectively. An increase in overall project cost of US$200 million would decrease the value of the Tetramerization CGU by R70 million (US$5 million) and the EO/EG CGU by R422 million (US$30 million). As the LCCP is nearing completion and with the upstream ethylene cracker having reached beneficial operation in August 2019, these value chains are not expected to incur significant additional capital costs. The pricing factors are outside of the control of management. We continue to monitor these assets, as well as the other derivative units within the LCCP complex for further impairments. Base Chemicals — Ammonia value chain The performance of this CGU is highly sensitive to changes in international Ammonia prices driven by changes in the global market conditions. A 5% increase in the ammonia price assumption could increase the recoverable amount of the CGU by approximately R1 138 million. A $1/GJ increase in gas feedstock prices in the long-term will decrease the recoverable amount by approximately R230 million. The pricing factors are outside of the control of management. Base Chemicals — Chlor Vinyls value chain The performance of this CGU is highly sensitive to the Rand/US$ exchange rate. A R0,50/US$ weakening in the exchange rate assumption could increase the recoverable amount of the CGU by approximately R872 million. The macro-economic factors are outside of the control of management. The Base Chemicals CGUs are also highly sensitive to variability in product prices driven by changes in the global market conditions. We continue to monitor these assets for signs of recovery indicating a reversal of impairment. Sasol Petroleum Mozambique — Production Sharing Agreement (PSA) The PSA is sensitive to changes in assumptions regarding capital, costs, gas prices and discount rates. A capital costs increase of 20% would decrease the recoverable amount by R1 183 million (US$84 million). A 10% increase in gas prices would increase the recoverable amount by approximately R141 – R521 million (US$10 – US$37 million). A 0,5% increase in the discount rate would decrease the recoverable amount by approximately R380 – R408 million (US$27 – US$29 million). Accounting policies: Remeasurement items are items of income and expense recognised in the income statement that are less closely aligned to the operating or trading activities of the reporting entity and includes the impairment of non-current assets, profit or loss on disposal of non-current assets including businesses and equity accounted investments, and scrapping of assets. The group’s non-financial assets, other than inventories and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable, to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. An impairment test is performed on all goodwill, intangible assets not yet in use and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives at each reporting date. The recoverable amount of an asset is defined as the amount that reflects the greater of the fair value less costs of disposal and value-in-use that can be attributed to an asset as a result of its ongoing use by the entity. Value-in-use is estimated using a discounted cash flow model. The future cash flows are adjusted for risks specific to the asset and is adjusted where applicable to take into account any specific risks relating to the country where the asset or cash-generating unit is located. The rate applied in each country is reassessed each year. The recoverable amount may be adjusted to take into account recent market transactions for a similar asset. Some assets are an integral part of the value chain but are not capable of generating independent cash flows because there is no active market for the product streams produced from these assets, or the market does not have the ability to absorb the product streams produced from these assets or it is not practically possible to access the market due to infrastructure constraints that would be costly to construct. Product streams produced by these assets form an input into another process and accordingly do not have an active market. These assets are classified as corporate assets in terms of IAS 36 when their output supports the production of multiple product streams that are ultimately sold into an active market. The group’s corporate assets are allocated to the relevant cash generating unit based on a cost or volume contribution metric. Costs incurred by the corporate asset are allocated to the appropriate cash generating unit at cost. If there is an indication that a corporate asset may be impaired, then the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the corporate asset belongs. In Southern Africa, the coal value chain starts with feedstock mined in Secunda and Sasolburg and continues along the integrated processes of the operating business units, ultimately resulting in fuels and chemicals-based product lines. Similarly, the gas value chain starts with the feedstock obtained in Mozambique and continues along the conversion processes in Secunda and Sasolburg, ultimately resulting in fuels and chemicals-based product lines. The groups of assets which support the different product lines, including corporate asset allocations, are considered to be separate cash-generating units. In the US, the ethylene value chain results in various chemicals-based product lines, sold into active markets. The assets which support the different chemicals-based product lines, including corporate asset allocations, are considered to be separate cash-generating units. In Europe, the identification of separate cash-generating units is based on the various product streams that have the ability to be sold into active markets by the European business units. Certain products are sometimes produced incidentally from the main conversion processes and can be sold into active markets. When this is the case, the assets that are directly attributable to the production of these products, are classified as separate cash-generating units. The cost of conversion of these products is compared against the revenue when assessing the asset for impairment. Exploration assets are tested for impairment when development of the property commences or whenever facts and circumstances indicate impairment. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the exploration assets carrying amount exceeds their recoverable amount. |

The downstream portion of the explosives business was classified as a disposal group held for sale at 30 June 2019, following approval to commence negotiations with a preferred partner, with the aim of creating a joint venture, managed and operated by the partner. The partial divestment and partnering is expected to be completed within the next 12 months. Base Chemicals — Investment in Sasol Huntsman GmbH & co KG On 26 July 2019 Sasol and Huntsman Corporation signed a definitive agreement for Sasol to dispose of our 50% equity interest in the Sasol-Huntsman maleic anhydride joint venture. The transaction closed on 30 September 2019 with a preliminary equity purchase price of EUR90,3 million received by Sasol. The final purchase price will be confirmed on verification of the closing accounts by the independent auditors. The group has classified its investment in Sasol Huntsman GmbH & co KG as held for sale at 30 June 2019. Performance Chemicals — Sasol Wilmar Alcohol Industries During May 2019 and based on the results of the recently concluded asset review, the Sasol Investment Committee approved the commencement of negotiations to sell Sasol’s share in Sasol Wilmar Alcohol Industries. A share purchase agreement was signed on 18 October 2019. The agreement is subject to Chinese authority approval. Accordingly, the group has classified its investment in Sasol Wilmar Alcohol Industries as held for sale and recorded an impairment on its portion of the assets, down to its fair value less costs to sell. Refer to note 9. Accounting policies: A non-current asset or disposal group (a business grouping of assets and their related liabilities) is designated as held for sale when its carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. The classification as held for sale of a non-current asset or disposal group occurs when it is available for immediate sale in its present condition and the sale is highly probable. A sale is considered highly probable if management is committed to a plan to sell the non-current asset or disposal group, an active divestiture programme has been initiated, the non-current asset or disposal group is marketed at a price reasonable to its fair value and the disposal will be completed within one year from classification. Where a disposal group held for sale will result in the loss of control or joint control of a subsidiary or joint operation, respectively, all the assets and liabilities of that subsidiary or joint operation are classified as held for sale, regardless of whether a non-controlling interest in the former subsidiary or an ongoing interest in the joint operation is to be retained after the sale. Where a disposal group held for sale will result in the loss of joint control of a joint venture or significant influence of an associate, the full investment is classified as held for sale. Equity accounting ceases from the date the joint venture or associate is classified as held for sale. Before classification of a non-current asset or disposal group as held for sale, it is reviewed for impairment. The impairment loss charged to the income statement is the excess of the carrying amount of the non-current asset over its expected fair value less costs to sell. No depreciation or amortisation is provided on non-current assets from the date they are classified as held for sale. |

In 2017, profits and a successful business turnaround strategy have resulted in the recognition of a previously unrecognised deferred tax asset of EUR25,4 million (R377,2 million). Additionally in 2017 R93 million of previously unrecognised tax assets were recognised after the approval of the Production Sharing Agreement (PSA) licence area’s Field Development Plan (FDP) in Mozambique. 2019 2018 2017 for the year ended 30 June Rm Rm Rm Regional analysis South Africa 5 285 3 994 7 013 Rest of Africa 1 465 Europe 1 276 1 649 United States of America (4 913 ) (1 032 ) ) Other Total operations 3 157 5 558 8 495 Contingent liability Sasol Oil As previously reported, the South African Revenue Service (SARS) issued revised assessments for Sasol Oil (Pty) Ltd (Sasol Oil) relating to a dispute around our international crude oil procurement activities for the 2005 to 2012 tax years. Sasol Oil raised a provision in its financial statements of R1,3 billion, including penalties and interest, which covers the 2005 to 2014 tax years in relation to these procurement activities. On 9 November 2018, the Supreme Court of Appeal (SCA) upheld an appeal filed by Sasol Oil (in respect of the 2005 to 2007 tax years) and set aside an earlier ruling by the Tax Court. On the basis of this judgement, Sasol Oil has reversed the provision of R1,3 billion. On 29 November 2018, SARS applied to the Constitutional Court (Con Court) for leave to appeal against the SCA decision. On 4 February 2019, the Con Court dismissed SARS’ application with costs, ruling that the matter falls outside the jurisdiction of the Con Court and, in any event, bears no reasonable prospect of success. In addition to the above litigation, the potential contingent liability relating to the ongoing dispute with SARS in relation to its revised assessments for the 2013 and 2014 tax years, based on different primary grounds of assessment regarding Sasol Oil’s crude oil procurement activity, amounts to R13,4 billion (including interest and penalties as at 30 June 2019). Sasol Oil disagrees with SARS’ assessment for the 2013 and 2014 periods and hence this tax dispute was the subject of an ongoing appeal with the Tax Court lodged by Sasol Oil. The impact of the SCA and Con Court judgements on the open years of assessment relating to 1999 to 2004 and 2008 to 2016 (open years), were fully considered by both parties. Consequently SARS and Sasol Oil has come to a mutual agreement resulting in the dispute between the parties being resolved for all the open years of assessment. As a result Sasol is no longer exposed to the contingent liability of R13,4 billion. Sasol Financing International Further, as reported previously, SARS conducted an audit over a number of years on Sasol Financing International Plc (SFI) which performs an off-shore treasury function for Sasol. The audit culminated in the issuance of revised assessments in respect of the 2002 to 2012 tax years and the dispute relates to the place of effective management of SFI. SFI has co-operated fully with SARS during the course of the audit relating to these assessments. The potential tax exposure of R2,4 billion (including interest and penalties as at 30 June 2019), which is disclosed as a contingent liability, was reduced from the R3,2 billion previously reported, due to the reduction of the penalties applied by SARS. SFI, in consultation with its tax and legal advisors, does not support the basis of these additional assessments for all the years of assessment. Accordingly, SFI lodged an objection and appeal in the Tax Court against the revised assessments. SFI and SARS has however come to a mutual agreement that the appeal and related Tax Court processes will be held in abeyance pending the outcome of the judicial review application noted below. In addition, Sasol has also launched a judicial review application against the SARS decision to register SFI as a South African taxpayer. SARS’ answering affidavit in this litigation was submitted on 8 February 2019 and SFI responded accordingly. The legal process is ongoing in this regard. Sasol is committed to compliance with tax laws and any disputes with tax authorities on the interpretation of tax laws and regulations will be addressed in a transparent and constructive manner. 2019 2018 2017 % % % Reconciliation of effective tax rate The table below shows the difference between the South African enacted tax rate (28%) compared to the effective tax rate in the income statement. Total income tax expense differs from the amount computed by applying the South African normal tax rate to profit before tax.

(2) This relates to the share based payment expense on the Sasol Khanyisa transaction. (3) Relates mainly to the impact of lower tax rate in the US on the increases in tax losses incurred during the year. (4) 2019 includes reversal of tax and interest pertaining to Sasol Oil and 2017, includes tax, interest and penalties. (5) Tax losses not recognised resulted mainly from the R1,9 billion (2018 – R2,8 billion) impairment of the Canadian shale gas asset and the Mozambique PSA impairment of R1,1 billion in 2018 for which no deferred tax asset was raised. Refer note 9. (6) 2018, includes profit on disposal of our investments in Petronas Chemicals LDPE Sdn Bhd and Petronas Chemicals Olefins Sdn Bhd.

Areas of judgement: Sasol companies are involved in tax litigation and tax disputes with various tax authorities in the normal course of business. A detailed assessment is performed regularly on each matter and a provision is recognised where appropriate. Although the outcome of these claims and disputes cannot be predicted with certainty, Sasol believes that open engagement and transparency will enable appropriate resolution thereof. A deferred tax asset is recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the deferred tax asset can be utilised. This includes the significant tax losses incurred at our US operations where we anticipate sufficient profits to be generated in future to utilise the deferred tax asset against. These losses do not expire. The provision of deferred tax assets and liabilities reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the expected recovery or settlement of the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. Unremitted earnings at end of year that would be subject to foreign dividend withholding tax and after tax effect if remitted Deferred tax liabilities are not recognised for the income tax effect that may arise on the remittance of unremitted earnings by foreign subsidiaries, joint operations and incorporated joint ventures.

Dividend withholding tax Dividend withholding tax is payable at a rate of 20% on dividends distributed to shareholders. Dividends paid to companies and certain other institutions and certain individuals are not subject to this withholding tax. This tax is not attributable to the company paying the dividend but is collected by the company and paid to the tax authorities on behalf of the shareholder. On receipt of a dividend, the company includes the dividend withholding tax in its computation of the income tax expense. 2019 2018 for the year ended 30 June Rm Rm Undistributed earnings at end of year subjected to dividend withholding tax withheld by the company on behalf of Sasol Limited shareholders 180 692 185 064 Maximum withholding tax payable by shareholders if distributed to individuals 36 138 37 013 Accounting policies: The income tax charge is determined based on net income before tax for the year and includes deferred tax and dividend withholding tax. The current tax charge is the tax payable on the taxable income for the financial year applying enacted or substantively enacted tax rates and includes any adjustments to tax payable in respect of prior years. Deferred tax is provided for using the liability method, on all temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for accounting purposes and the amounts used for tax purposes and on any tax losses. No deferred tax is provided on temporary differences relating to: · the initial recognition of goodwill; · the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of an asset or liability to the extent that neither accounting nor taxable profit is affected on acquisition; and · investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint arrangements to the extent that the temporary difference will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future and the control of the reversal of the temporary difference lies with the parent, investor, joint venturer or joint operator. The provision for deferred tax is calculated using enacted or substantively enacted tax rates at the reporting date that are expected to apply when the asset is realised or liability settled. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when the related income taxes are levied by the same taxation authority, there is a legally enforceable right to offset and there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis. |

Accounting policies: Debt, which constitutes a financial liability, includes short-term and long-term debt. Debt is initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred and is subsequently stated at amortised cost. Debt is classified as short-term unless the borrowing entity has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. Debt is derecognised when the obligation in the contract is discharged, cancelled or has expired. Premiums or discounts arising from the difference between the fair value of debt raised and the amount repayable at maturity date are charged to the income statement as finance expenses based on the effective interest rate method. A debt modification gain or loss is recognised immediately when a debt measured at amortised cost has been modified. |

During the year a misstatement was identified in the calculation of the LCCP capital cost estimate that was included in the capital commitment disclosure as at 30 June 2018. The misstatement related to the inaccurate estimation of the cost still to be incurred on the project. Accordingly, the capital commitments disclosure as at 30 June 2018 that were originally presented as R63 276 million has been revised by R6 651 million (US$484 million) to R69 927 million. Management concluded that the revision is not material to the financial statements. Accounting policies: Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Land is not depreciated. When plant and equipment comprises major components with different useful lives, these components are accounted for as separate items. Depreciation of mineral assets on producing oil and gas properties is based on the units-of-production method calculated using estimated proved developed reserves. Life-of-mine coal assets are depreciated using the units-of-production method and is based on proved and probable reserves assigned to that specific mine (accessible reserves) or complex which benefits from the utilisation of those assets. Other coal mining assets are depreciated on the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation of property acquisition costs, capitalised as part of mineral assets in property, plant and equipment, is based on the units-of-production method calculated using estimated proved reserves. Property, plant and equipment, other than mineral assets, is depreciated to its estimated residual value on a straight-line basis over its expected useful life. Areas of judgement: The depreciation methods, estimated remaining useful lives and residual values are reviewed at least annually. The estimation of the useful lives of property, plant and equipment is based on historic performance as well as expectations about future use and therefore requires a significant degree of judgement to be applied by management. The following depreciation rates apply in the group: Buildings and improvements 1 – 17%, units of production over life of related reserve base Retail convenience centres 3 – 5 % Plant 2 – 50 % Equipment 3 – 91 % Vehicles 5 – 33 % Mineral assets Units of production over life of related reserve base Life-of-mine coal assets Units of production over life of related reserve base |

Project-related performance guarantees With the settlement of the LCCP term loan the completion guarantees and sureties issued in respect of the Lake Charles Chemicals Project have been discharged. Accounting policies: Assets under construction Assets under construction are non-current assets, which includes land and expenditure capitalised for work in progress in respect of activities to develop, expand or enhance items of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and exploration assets. The cost of self-constructed assets includes expenditure on materials, direct labour and an allocated proportion of project overheads. Cost also includes the estimated costs of dismantling and removing the assets and site rehabilitation costs to the extent that they relate to the construction of the asset as well as gains or losses on qualifying cash flow hedges attributable to that asset. When regular major inspections are a condition of continuing to operate an item of property, plant and equipment, and plant shutdown costs will be incurred, an estimate of these shutdown costs are included in the carrying value of the asset at initial recognition. Land acquired, as well as costs capitalised for work in progress in respect of activities to develop, expand or enhance items of property, plant and equipment are classified as part of assets under construction. Finance expenses in respect of specific and general borrowings are capitalised against qualifying assets as part of assets under construction. Where funds are borrowed specifically for the purpose of acquiring or constructing a qualifying asset, the amount of finance expenses eligible for capitalisation on that asset is the actual finance expenses incurred on the borrowing during the period less any investment income on the temporary investment of those borrowings. Where funds are made available from general borrowings and used for the purpose of acquiring or constructing qualifying assets, the amount of finance expenses eligible for capitalisation is determined by applying a capitalisation rate to the expenditures on these assets. The capitalisation rate of 5,5% is calculated as the weighted average of the interest rates applicable to the borrowings of the group that are outstanding during the period, including borrowings made specifically for the purpose of obtaining qualifying assets once the specific qualifying asset is ready for its intended use. The amount of finance expenses capitalised will not exceed the amount of borrowing costs incurred. Exploration assets Exploration assets comprise capitalised expenditure relating to the exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources (coal, oil and gas). Mineral assets comprise capitalised expenditure relating to producing coal, oil and gas properties, including development costs and previously capitalised exploration assets. Oil and gas The successful efforts method is used to account for natural oil and gas exploration, evaluation and development activities. Property and licence acquisition costs as well as development cost, including expenditure incurred to drill and equip development wells on proved properties, are capitalised as part of assets under construction and transferred to mineral assets in property, plant and equipment when the assets begin producing. On completion of an exploratory well or exploratory-type stratigraphic test well, the entity will be able to determine if there are oil or gas resources. The classification of resources as proved reserves depends on whether development of the property is economically feasible and recoverable in the future, under existing economic and operating conditions, and if any major capital expenditure to develop the property as a result of sufficient quantities of additional proved reserves being identified is justifiable, approved and recoverable. The cost of exploratory wells, through which potential proved reserves may be or have been discovered and the associated exploration costs are capitalised as exploration and evaluation assets in assets under construction. These costs remain capitalised pending the evaluation of results and the determination of whether there are proved reserves. The following conditions must be met for these exploration costs to remain capitalised: · Sufficient progress is being made in assessing the oil and gas resources, including assessing the economic and operating viability with regards to developing the property. · It has been determined that sufficient oil and gas resources or reserves exist which are economically viable based on a range of technical and commercial considerations to justify the capital expenditure required for the completion of the well as a producing well, either individually or in conjunction with other wells. Progress in this regard is reassessed at each reporting date and is subject to technical, commercial and management review to ensure sufficient justification for the continued capitalisation of such qualifying exploration and evaluation expenditure as an exploration and evaluation asset as part of assets under construction. If both of the above conditions are not met or if information is obtained that raise substantial doubt about the economic or operating viability, the costs are charged to the income statement. Exploratory wells and exploratory-type stratigraphic test wells can remain suspended on the statement of financial position for several years while additional activity including studies, appraisal, drilling and/or seismic work on the potential oil and gas field is performed or while the optimum development plans and timing are established in the absence of impairment indicators. Coal mining Coal mining exploration and evaluation expenditure is charged to the income statement until completion of a final feasibility study supporting proved and probable coal reserves. Expenditure incurred subsequent to proved and probable coal reserves being identified is capitalised as exploration assets in assets under construction. Expenditure on producing mines or development properties is capitalised when excavation or drilling is incurred to extend reserves or further delineate existing proved and probable coal reserves. All development expenditure incurred after the commencement of production is capitalised to the extent that it gives rise to probable future economic benefits. A unit is considered to be produced once it has been removed from underground and taken to the surface, passed the bunker and has been transported by conveyor over the scale of the shaft head. The calculation is based on proved and probable reserves assigned to that specific mine (accessible reserves) or complex which benefits from the utilisation of those assets. Inaccessible reserves are excluded from the calculation. |

Inventory of R3 113 million (2018 — R1 348 million) is held at net realisable value. No inventories were encumbered at 30 June 2019, (2018 — R4 099 million). Accounting policies: Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes expenditure incurred in acquiring, manufacturing and transporting the inventory to its present location. Manufacturing costs include an allocated portion of production overheads which are directly attributable to the cost of manufacturing such inventory. The allocation is determined based on the greater of normal production capacity and actual production. The costs attributable to any inefficiencies in the production process are charged to the income statement as incurred. By-products are incidental to the manufacturing processes, are usually produced as a consequence of the main product stream, and are immaterial to the group. Revenue from sale of by-products is offset against the cost of the main products. Cost is determined as follows: Crude oil and other raw materials First-in-first-out valuation method (FIFO) Process, maintenance and other materials Weighted average purchase price Work-in-progress Manufacturing costs incurred Manufactured products including consignment inventory Manufacturing costs according to FIFO |

The environmental obligation includes estimated costs for the rehabilitation of coal mining, oil, gas and petrochemical sites. The amount provided is calculated based on currently available facts and applicable legislation. The total environmental provision at 30 June 2019 amounted to R18 742 million (2018 – R14 933 million). In line with the requirements of the legislation of South Africa, the utilisation of certain investments is restricted for mining rehabilitation purposes. These investments amounted to R667 million (2018 – R649 million). In addition, indemnities of R2 155 million (2018 – R2 066 million) are in place. The following risk-free rates were used to discount the estimated cash flows based on the underlying currency and time duration of the obligation. 2019 2018 for the year ended 30 June % % South Africa 6,9 to 8,7 7,3 to 9,2 Europe 0,0 to 0,7 0,0 to 1,5 United States of America 1,7 to 2,3 2,6 to 3,0 Canada 1,7 to 2,2 2,0 to 2,7 2019 2018 for the year ended 30 June Rm Rm A 1% point change in the discount rate would have the following effect on the long-term provisions recognised Increase in the discount rate (3 351 ) (2 726 ) amount capitalised to property, plant and equipment (1 930 ) (1 434 ) income recognised in income statement (1 421 ) (1 292 ) Decrease in the discount rate 4 540 3 786 amount capitalised to property, plant and equipment 2 622 2 058 expense recognised in income statement 1 918 1 728 |

The increase in discounted long-term provisions as a result of the passage of time is recognised as a finance expense in the income statement. Estimated long-term environmental provisions, comprising pollution control, rehabilitation and mine closure, are based on the group’s environmental policy taking into account current technological, environmental and regulatory requirements. The provision for rehabilitation is recognised as and when the environmental liability arises. To the extent that the obligations relate to the construction of an asset, they are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets. The effect of subsequent changes to assumptions in estimating an obligation for which the provision was recognised as part of the cost of the asset is adjusted against the asset. Any subsequent changes to an obligation which did not relate to the initial construction of a related asset are charged to the income statement. The estimated present value of future decommissioning costs, taking into account current environmental and regulatory requirements, is capitalised as part of property, plant and equipment, to the extent that they relate to the construction of the asset, and the related provisions are raised. These estimates are reviewed at least annually. Deferred tax is recognised on the temporary differences in relation to both the asset to which the obligation relates to and rehabilitation provision. Termination benefits are recognised as a liability at the earlier of the date of recognition of restructuring costs or when the group is demonstrably committed, without realistic possibility of withdrawal, to a formal detailed plan to either terminate employment before normal retirement date, or to provide termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy. In the case of an offer to encourage voluntary redundancy, the termination benefits are measured based on the number of employees expected to accept the offer. Benefits that are expected to be wholly settled more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period are discounted to their present value. Areas of judgement: The determination of long-term provisions, in particular environmental provisions, remains a key area where management’s judgement is required. Estimating the future cost of these obligations is complex and requires management to make estimates and judgements because most of the obligations will only be fulfilled in the future and contracts and laws are often not clear regarding what is required. The resulting provisions could also be influenced by changing technologies and political, environmental, safety, business and statutory considerations as well as the period in which it will be settled. It is envisaged that, based on the current information available, any additional liability in excess of the amounts provided will not have a material adverse effect on the group’s financial position, liquidity or cash flow. |

Generally, medical coverage provides for a specified percentage of most medical expenses, subject to pre-set rules and maximum amounts. Pension benefits are payable in the form of retirement, disability and surviving dependent pensions. The medical benefits are unfunded. The pension benefits in South Africa are funded. In the United States of America certain of our Pension Funds are funded. The pension benefits in Europe are unfunded. Accounting policies: The group operates or contributes to defined contribution pension plans and defined benefit pension plans for its employees in certain of the countries in which it operates. These plans are generally funded through payments to trustee-administered funds as determined by annual actuarial calculations. Defined contribution pension plans are plans under which the group pays fixed contributions into a separate legal entity and has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Contributions to defined contribution pension plans are charged to the income statement as an employee expense in the period in which the related services are rendered by the employee. The group’s net obligation in respect of defined benefit pension plans is actuarially calculated separately for each plan by deducting the fair value of plan assets from the gross obligation for post-retirement benefits. The gross obligation is determined by estimating the future benefit attributable to members in return for services rendered to date. This future benefit is discounted to determine its present value, using discount rates based on government bonds for South African obligations, and corporate bonds in Europe and the US, that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the group’s obligations and which are denominated in the currency in which the benefits are expected to be paid. Independent actuaries perform this calculation annually using the projected unit credit method. Defined contribution members employed before 2009 have an option to purchase a defined benefit pension with their member share. This option gives rise to actuarial risk, and as such, these members are accounted for as part of the defined benefit fund and are disclosed as such. Past service costs are charged to the income statement at the earlier of the following dates: · when the plan amendment or curtailment occurs; and · when the group recognises related restructuring costs or termination benefits. Actuarial gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes to actuarial assumptions, the return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the defined benefit liability/(asset)) and any changes in the effect of the asset ceiling (excluding amounts included in net interest on the defined benefit liability/(asset)) are remeasurements that are recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise. Where the plan assets exceed the gross obligation, the asset recognised is limited to the lower of the surplus in the defined benefit plan and the asset ceiling, determined using a discount rate based on government bonds. Surpluses and deficits in the various plans are not offset. The entitlement to healthcare benefits is usually based on the employee remaining in service up to retirement age and the completion of a minimum service period. The expected costs of these benefits are accrued on a systematic basis over the expected remaining period of employment, using the accounting methodology described in respect of defined benefit pension plans above. Independent actuaries perform the calculation of this obligation annually.

A change in the pension increase assumption will not have an effect on the above obligation. In South Africa the post-retirement benefit contributions are linked to medical aid inflation and based on a percentage of income or pension. Where pension increases differ from medical aid inflation, the difference will be need to be allowed for in a change in the percentage of income or pension charged. The are no automatic pension increase for the United states pension plan. The sensitivities may not be representative of the actual change in the post-retirement healthcare obligation, as it is unlikely that the changes would occur in isolation of one another, and some of the assumptions may be correlated. Healthcare cost inflation risk Healthcare cost inflation is CPI inflation plus two percentage points over the long term. An increase in healthcare cost inflation will increase the obligation of the plan. Discount rate risk The discount rate is derived from prevailing bond yields. A decrease in the discount rate will increase the obligation of the plan. Pension increase risk The South African healthcare plan is linked to pension benefits paid, which are to some extent linked to inflation. Accordingly, increased inflation levels represent a risk that could increase the cost of paying the funds committed to benefits. Other Changes in other assumptions used could also affect the measured liabilities. There is also a regulatory risk as well as foreign funds under the jurisdiction of other countries. To the extent that governments can change the regulatory frameworks, there may be a risk that minimum benefits or minimum pension increases may be instituted, increasing the associated cost for the fund. 33.2 Pension benefits South African operations Background In 1994, all members were given the choice to voluntarily transfer to the newly established defined contribution section of the pension fund and approximately 99% of contributing members chose to transfer to the defined contribution section. Defined benefit option for defined contribution members In terms of the rules of the fund, on retirement, employees employed before 1 January 2009 have an option to purchase a defined benefit pension with their member share. Should a member elect this option, the group is exposed to actuarial risk. In terms of IAS 19, the classification requirements stipulate that where an employer is exposed to any actuarial risk, the fund must be classified as a defined benefit plan. Fund assets The assets of the fund are held separately from those of the company in a trustee administered fund, registered in terms of the South African Pension Funds Act, 1956. Included in the fund assets at 31 March 2019 are 1 681 008 (2018 – 1 678 808) Sasol ordinary shares valued at R589 million (2018 – R844 million) at year-end purchased under terms of an approved investment strategy, and property valued at R1 561 million (2018 – R1 543 million) that is currently occupied by Sasol. Membership A significant number of employees are covered by union sponsored, collectively bargained, and in some cases, multi-employer defined contribution pension plans. Information from the administrators of these plans offering defined benefits is not sufficient to permit the company to determine its share, if any, of any unfunded vested benefits. Pension fund assets The assets of the pension funds are invested as follows: South Africa United States of America 2019 2018 2019 2018 at 30 June % % % % Equities resources industrials consumer discretionary consumer staples healthcare information technologies telecommunications financials (ex real estate) Fixed interest Direct property Listed property — — Cash and cash equivalents — — Third party managed assets — — Other — — Total The pension fund assets are measured at fair value at valuation date. The fair value of equity has been calculated by reference to quoted prices in an active market. The fair value of property and other assets has been determined by performing market valuations and using other valuation techniques at the end of each reporting period. Investment strategy The trustees target the plans’ asset allocation within the following ranges within each asset class: South Africa(1) United States of America Minimum Maximum Minimum Maximum Asset classes % % % % Equities local — foreign — Fixed interest — Property — Other — — (1) Members of the defined contribution scheme have a choice of four investment portfolios. The targeted allocation disclosed represents the moderate balanced investment portfolio which the majority of the members of the scheme have adopted. The total assets of the fund under these investment portfolios are R139 million, R52 080 million, R791 million and R1 034 million for the low risk portfolio, moderate balanced portfolio, aggressive balanced portfolio and money market portfolio, respectively. Defined benefit members’ funds are invested in the moderate balanced portfolio. The money market portfolio is restricted to active members from age 55. The trustees of the respective funds monitor investment performance and portfolio characteristics on a regular basis to ensure that managers are meeting expectations with respect to their investment approach. There are restrictions and controls placed on managers in this regard.

However, after retirement date, there is actuarial risk associated with the members as full defined benefit members. Based on the latest actuarial valuation of the fund and the approval of the trustees of the surplus allocation, the company has an unconditional entitlement to only the funds in the employer surplus account and the contribution reserve. The estimated surplus due to the company amounted to approximately R1 274 million (2018 – R1 498 million) and has been included in the pension asset recognised in the current year. Investment risk The actuarial valuation assumes certain asset returns on invested assets. If actual returns on plan assets are below the assumption, this may lead to a strain on the fund, which, over time, may lead to a plan deficit. In order to mitigate the concentration risk, the fund assets are invested across equity securities, property securities and debt securities. Given the long-term nature of the obligations, it is considered appropriate that investment is made in equities and real estate to improve the return generated by the fund. These may result in improved pension benefits to members. Pension increase risk Benefits in these plans are to some extent linked to inflation so increased inflation levels represent a risk that could increase the cost of paying the funds committed to benefits. This risk is mitigated as pension benefits are subject to affordability. Discount rate risk The discount rate is derived from prevailing bond yields. A decrease in the discount rate used will increase the obligation of the plan. Other Changes in other assumptions used could also affect the measured liabilities. There is also a regulatory risk as well as foreign funds under the jurisdiction of other countries. To the extent that governments can change the regulatory frameworks, there may be a risk that minimum benefits or minimum pension increases may be instituted, increasing the associated cost for the fund.

Sasol’s share price decreased by 30% over the financial year to a closing price on 30 June 2019 of R350,21. This together with the volatility in the share price has resulted in a R440 million credit being recognised in the current year. Sasol Share Appreciation Rights Scheme (closed since 2013) 2019 2018 Total rights granted Number Number Share Appreciation Rights 4 928 846 7 118 321 The Share Appreciation Rights scheme (SARs) allows eligible senior employees to earn a long-term incentive amount calculated with reference to the increase in the Sasol Limited share price between the offer date of the SARs to the exercise of such vested rights. No shares are issued in terms of this scheme, all rights have vested and all amounts payable in terms of the scheme are settled in cash. The offer price of these appreciation rights equals the closing market price of the underlying shares on the trading day immediately preceding the granting of the right. The fair value of the cash-settled liability is calculated at each reporting date. On resignation SARs may be exercised at the employee’s election before their last day of service. On death, the deceased’s estate has a period of 12 months to exercise these rights. On retrenchment or retirement, the employee has a period of 12 months to exercise these rights. It is group policy that employees should not deal in Sasol Limited securities (and this is extended to the Sasol SARs) for the periods from 1 January for half year-end and 1 July for year-end until two days after publication of the results and at any other time during which they have access to price sensitive information. 2019 2018 SARs with SARs with Total SARs with SARs with Total for the year ended 30 June Rm Rm Rm Rm Rm Rm Per statement of financial position 1 003 1 101 Total intrinsic value of rights vested, but not yet exercised 1 085 2019 2018 SARs with SARs SARs with SARs Binomial Binomial Binomial Binomial Model tree tree tree tree Risk-free interest rate (%) 6,64 – 6,96 6,88 – 7,09 6,88 – 7,63 Expected volatility (%) Expected dividend yield (%) Expected forfeiture rate (%) * * * * All SARs have vested and therefore no forfeiture is applied. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual term of the rights is based on the Rand swap curve in effect at the time of the valuation of the grant. The expected volatility in the value of the rights granted is determined using the historical volatility of the Sasol share price. The expected dividend yield of the rights granted is determined using expected dividend payments of the Sasol ordinary shares. The valuation of the share-based payment expense requires a significant degree of judgement to be applied by management. Accounting policies: The cash-settled schemes allow certain senior employees the right to participate in the performance of the Sasol Limited share price, in return for services rendered, through the payment of cash incentives which are based on the market price of the Sasol Limited share. All the rights have vested with a liability recognised at fair value, at each reporting date, in the statement of financial position until the date of settlement. Areas of judgement: Fair value is measured using the Binomial tree option pricing models where applicable. The expected life used in the models has been adjusted, based on management’s best estimate, for the effects of non-transferability, exercise restrictions and behavioural considerations such as volatility, dividend yield and maturity of the award. |

(2) IFRS2 expense was recognised immediately on date shares were granted to participants. Shares were not encumbered and could be traded immediately. (3) On 25 November 2016, the cash-settled LTI scheme was converted to an equity-settled share scheme. (4) The employee-related share-based payment expense in 2018 was R910 million. Accounting policies: To the extent that an entity grants shares or share options in a BEE transaction and the fair value of the cash and other assets received is less than the fair value of the shares or share options granted, such difference is charged to the income statement in the period in which the transaction becomes effective. Where the BEE transaction includes service conditions the difference will be charged to the income statement over the period of these service conditions. Trickle dividends paid to participants during the transaction term are taken into account in measuring the fair value of the award. As the funds to pay the trickle dividend are leaving the Company, a corresponding share of earnings will be allocated to the non controlling shareholders. There was one trickle dividend paid during the current year. 35.1 The Sasol Khanyisa share transaction Sasol Khanyisa was implemented effectively on 1 June 2018. Sasol Khanyisa has been designed to comply with the revised B-BBEE legislation in South Africa and seeks to ensure on-going and sustainable B-BBEE ownership credentials for Sasol Limited. Sasol Khanyisa contains a number of elements structured at both a Sasol Limited and at a subsidiary level, Sasol South Africa Limited (SSA) which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sasol Limited and houses the majority of the group’s South African operations. At the end of 10 years, or earlier if the underlying funding has been settled, the participants will exchange their SSA shareholding on a fair value-for-value basis for SOLBE1 shares to the extent of any value created during the transaction term. SOLBE1 shares can only be traded between Black Persons on the Empowerment Segment of the JSE. This transaction will therefore ensure evergreen B-BBEE ownership credentials for Sasol Limited. Remaining components of the transaction: Tier 1 — Khanyisa Employee Share Ownership Plan — Eligible Inzalo participants Former Inzalo Employee Scheme participants, who were still actively employed by Sasol during May 2018 were granted rights in SOL shares or SOLBE1 Shares, at no cost to them, to the value of R100 000, all of which will vest after a three year service period. Black employees were able to choose to receive the award in SOL or SOLBE1 shares, whilst employees who are not black people received an award in SOL shares, as SOLBE1 shares may only be held by qualifying black people. Employees will receive dividends on these shares throughout the 3 year vesting period. This award will be recognised on a straight line basis over the three year vesting period. An expense of R628 million was recognised in 2019 (2018 – R52 million). Sasol Khanyisa — SSA (Tier 2 and Khanyisa Public) The BEE participation in SSA comprises two groups of participants, being the external public participants (made up of Inzalo Groups, Inzalo Public and electing SOLBE1 shareholders) who participate via Khanyisa Public, and qualifying black employees who participate via the Khanyisa Employee Share Ownership plan (Khanyisa ESOP). Both Khanyisa Public and the Khanyisa ESOP have a beneficial interest, funded wholly by Sasol (vendor funding), in approximately 9,2% each in SSA. As dividends are declared by SSA, 97,5% of these will be utilised to repay the vendor funding, as well as the related financing cost, calculated at 75% of prime rate. 2,5% of dividends will be distributed to participants as a trickle dividend and accounted for as a non-controlling interest. At the end of the 10 year transaction term, or earlier, if the vendor funding is repaid, the net value in SSA shares will be exchanged for SOLBE1 shares on a fair value-for-value basis which will be distributed to participants. Any vendor funding not yet settled by the end of the transaction term will be settled using the SSA shares, and will reduce any distribution made to participants. Since any ultimate value created for participants will be granted in the form of SOLBE1 shares, the accounting for this transaction is similar to an option over Sasol shares granted for no consideration. Khanyisa ESOP (Tier 2) The employees have service conditions over the 10 year transaction term, and as such, the expense will be recognised over this period, with R324 million having been recognised in 2019 (2018 – R35 million). ESOP — Tier 1(1) ESOP — Tier 1(1) ESOP — Tier 2(1)(2)(3) Sasol Khanyisa for the year ended 30 June 2019 2019 2019 2019 Grant date Date 1 June 2018 1 June 2018 25 May 2018 1 June 2018 Class of shares SOL shares SOLBE1 shares Khanyisa shares Khanyisa shares Shares Number 2 082 520 2 396 048 26 503 642 26 503 642 Weighted average fair value on grant date Rand Total IFRS expense Rm 1 003 1 762 1 762 IFRS expense recognised for the year Rm — (1) The ESOP Tier 1 and 2 options outstanding have a weighted average remaining vesting period of 1,9 and 4,7 years. ESOP Tier 1 vests after 3 years and ESOP Tier 2 has a staggered vesting period, with portions vesting from 3 years, and then each year until the end of the transaction term, being 10 years. (2) The weighted average fair value price is derived from the Monte-Carlo option pricing model. The price will move closer to the strike price over the transaction period as certainty of dividends declared by SSA is expected to exceed outstanding vendor financing. (3) The estimated strike price value for Khanyisa Public and ESOP Tier 2 is R326,55 and represents the remaining vendor funding per share at 30 June 2019. The SSA Khanyisa share-based payment expense was calculated using an option pricing model reflective of the underlying characteristics of each part of the transaction. It was calculated using the following assumptions at grant date: Average fair value Sasol Khanyisa options granted 2018 Model Monte-Carlo Risk-free interest rate (%) Expected volatility (%) Expected dividend yield (%) 1,8 – 10,1 The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual term of the share rights is based on a zero-coupon Rand swap curve at the time of the grant. The expected volatility in the value of the share rights granted is determined using the historical volatility of the Sasol share price. The dividend yields of the share rights granted is determined using the expected term structure of dividend yields on the underlying equity value over the life of the transaction. The valuation of the share-based payment expense requires a significant degree of judgement to be applied by management. Areas of judgement: The measurement of the Khanyisa SSA share based payment is subject to estimation and judgment, as there are a number of variables affecting the Monte-Carlo option pricing model used in the calculation of the share based payment. The value of the share based payment is determined with reference to the extent the fair value of SSA and any dividends declared by SSA is expected to exceed any outstanding vendor financing at the end of the transaction period. · Equity value attributable to participants: The value attributable to the participants by virtue of their shareholding in SSA was calculated with reference to the expected future cash flows and budgets of the SSA Group. The underlying macroeconomic assumptions utilised for this valuation are based on latest forecast and estimates and include brent crude oil prices, US$/Rand exchange rates and pricing assumptions. · Forecasted dividend yield: The forecasted dividend yield of the SSA Group was calculated based on a benchmarked EBITDA multiple, and the available free cash flow anticipated over the term of the transaction of 10 years. · Other assumptions: Impacts of non-transferability and appropriate minority and liquidity discounts have also been taken into account. Discount rates applied incorporate the relevant debt and equity costs of the group, and are aligned to the WACC rates for the entity. · A zero-coupon Rand interest rate swap curve was constructed and utilised as an appropriate representation of a risk-free interest rate curve. · A Rand prime interest rate curve was estimated utilising the historical Rand Prime Index and the 3 month Johannesburg Interbank Agreed Rate. 35.2 Sasol Long-term Incentive Scheme During September 2009, the group introduced the Sasol Long-term Incentive scheme (LTI). The objective of the LTI scheme is to provide qualifying employees the opportunity of receiving an incentive linked to the value of Sasol Limited ordinary shares and to align the interest of employees with the interest of shareholders. The LTI scheme allows certain senior employees to earn a long-term incentive amount linked to certain Corporate Performance Targets (CPTs). Allocations of the LTI are linked to the performance of both the group and the individual. The employer companies make a cash contribution to an independent service provider to enable this ownership plan. On resignation, LTIs which have not yet vested will lapse. On death, retirement and retrenchment, the LTIs vest immediately, calculated to the extent that the CPTs are anticipated to be met, and are settled within 40 days from the date of termination. Accelerated vesting does not apply to top management. In November 2016, the scheme was converted from cash-settled to equity-settled. All the vesting conditions and all other terms and conditions of the scheme remain the same, including the standard vesting period of three years, with the exception of top management, who have a three and five year vesting period for 50% of the awards respectively. The maximum number of shares issued under the equity-settled LTI scheme may not exceed 32,5 million representing 5% of Sasol Limited’s issued share capital at the time of approval. Movements in the number of incentives outstanding Number of Weighted average Balance at 30 June 2017 6 198 589 LTIs granted 2 626 268 LTIs vested (1 868 963 ) Effect of CPTs and LTIs forfeited (159 406 ) Balance at 30 June 2018 6 796 488 LTIs granted 2 089 674 LTIs vested (1 600 899 ) Effect of CPTs and LTIs forfeited (665 666 ) Balance at 30 June 2019* 6 619 597 * The incentives outstanding as at 30 June 2019 have a weighted average remaining vesting period of 1,4 years.

The expected volatility in the value of the rights granted is determined using the historical volatility of the Sasol share price. The expected dividend yield of the rights granted is determined using expected dividend payments of the Sasol ordinary shares. The valuation of the share-based payment expense requires a significant degree of judgement to be applied by management. Accounting policies: The equity-settled schemes allow certain employees the right to receive ordinary shares in Sasol Limited after a prescribed period. Such equity-settled share-based payments are measured at fair value at the date of the grant. The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is charged as employee costs, with a corresponding increase in equity, on a straight-line basis over the period that the employees become unconditionally entitled to the shares, based on management’s estimate of the shares that will vest and adjusted for the effect of non-market-based vesting conditions. These equity-settled share-based payments are not subsequently revalued. 35.3 The Sasol Inzalo share transaction In September 2018 the Sasol Inzalo Public share transaction ended. Sasol repurchased 16 085 199 preferred ordinary shares from Sasol Inzalo Public Funding (RF) (Pty) Ltd at a purchase price for R542,11 per share. This repurchase enabled Sasol Inzalo Public Funding (RF) (Pty) Ltd to repay its external debt and declare a final distribution of R1,4 billion to participants. On 4 June 2018 the Sasol Inzalo Employee share transaction ended. Sasol repurchased 25 231 686 Sasol Limited (SOL) shares held by the Sasol Inzalo Employee and Management Trusts at a nominal value of R0,01 per share. Consequently the relevant vested participants in the Inzalo Employee Schemes received no distribution of SOL Shares. On 27 June 2018 the Sasol Inzalo Groups share transaction ended. Sasol repurchased 9 461 882 preferred ordinary shares from Sasol Inzalo Groups Funding (RF) (Pty) Ltd at a purchase price of R475,03 per share. This repurchase enabled Sasol Inzalo Groups Funding (RF) (Pty) Ltd to repay the external debt. No additional funds were available for distribution to Inzalo Groups participants. The Sasol Inzalo Foundation (renamed to the Sasol Foundation), remains as an unencumbered shareholder of 9 461 882 shares in Sasol Limited as the Board approved that the repurchase right would not be exercised, and there was no recovery of the financing owed to Sasol by the Foundation. The Sasol Foundation continues to be consolidated by the group, and these shares therefore remain accounted for as treasury shares. |

Contingent liabilities | 36 Contingent liabilities 36.1 Litigation Claimed compensation for lung diseases — Sasol Mining (Pty) Ltd On 2 April 2015, 22 plaintiffs (at that time 1 current and 21 former employees) instituted action against Sasol Mining (Pty) Ltd at the High Court in Gauteng, South Africa, for allegedly having contracted lung diseases while working at its collieries. The plaintiffs inter alia allege that they were exposed to harmful quantities of coal dust while working underground for Sasol Mining and that the company failed to comply with various sections of the Mine Health and Safety Act, 1996. All of which the plaintiffs allege, increased the risk for workers to contract coal dust related lung diseases. This lawsuit is not a class action but rather 22 individual cases, each of which will be judged on its own merits. The plaintiffs seek compensation for damages relating to past and future medical costs and loss of income amounting to R82,5 million in total plus interest. Two plaintiffs have since passed away and their claims have been formally withdrawn. The total amount of the claims is R67,2 million plus interest. Sasol Mining is defending the claim. The merits of each single claim are not clear yet. There is also some uncertainty as to whether some of the claims have prescribed. Therefore it is not possible at this stage to make an estimate of the likelihood that the plaintiffs will succeed with their claim and if successful, what the quantum of damages would be that the court will award. Therefore, no provision has been raised at 30 June 2019. Construction disputes — Fischer Tropsch Wax Expansion Project in Sasolburg (FTWEP) After the conclusion of construction of FTWEP at the Sasol One site in Sasolburg, a number of contractual claims have been instituted by some contractors who were involved in the construction and project management relating to this project. Certain of these claims have already been resolved, either through settlement between the parties or through the contractual dispute resolution process. The Fluor SA (Pty) matter is still on-going. Fluor SA (Pty) Ltd — FTWEP Fluor claimed a total amount of R485,7 million plus interest. This dispute turns on the nature and quantification of Fluor’s alleged entitlement to a change to the prices and completion dates for delayed access. In June 2015, Fluor referred the claim to adjudication. In September 2015, the adjudicator rejected Fluor’s entire claim. Thereafter, Fluor notified Sasol of its dissatisfaction with the outcome of the adjudication and Fluor’s intention to refer the matter to arbitration. The arbitration process commenced with Fluor filing its statement of claim during December 2016. Sasol filed two objections against the statement of claim which had the potential to dispose of the arbitration proceedings. The arbitrator, however, did not decide in favour of Sasol on the objection applications and dismissed the application with costs. The objections will still be raised as a special jurisdictional plea and will be filed with Sasol’s statement of defence during the arbitration process. Fluor subsequently amended its claim, inter alia, by reducing the amount claimed from R485,7 million to R448 million excluding interest. On the 12th of March 2019 Fluor filed and served a further amendment to its statement of claim and an amended expert report in terms of which a further reduction in the quantum is being claimed. Fluor now claims an amount of R383,8 million (alternatively the amount of R406,6 million based on an alternative assessment of its claim). The amendment by Fluor resulted in the arbitration being postponed as Sasol’s experts will be required to deal with the revised expert report and we will be required to file an amendment to our statement of defence. The hearing of the matter is now only anticipated to commence in March 2020. Sasol believes that Fluor’s original claim, including the amended claims are not justified. Accordingly, no provision was recognised at 30 June 2019. Wetback Contracts (Pty) Ltd — FTWEP The dispute regarding Wetback Contracts (Pty) Ltd was concluded during the year. Legal review of Sasol Gas National Energy Regulator of South Africa (NERSA) maximum price decision and NERSA gas transmission tariff application (March 2013) In October 2013, following the March 2013 decisions by NERSA (pursuant to the applications by Sasol Gas), seven of the customers of Sasol Gas (“customers”) brought a legal review application requesting the setting aside of the maximum price methodology used by NERSA in evaluating the maximum price application by Sasol Gas as well as maximum price decision and gas transmission tariff decision. The basis of the challenge to the NERSA price decision is the allegation that the methodology used by NERSA to determine its approval of the maximum gas prices was unreasonable and irrational. In October 2016 the High Court dismissed the review application The Applicants were subsequently granted consent to appeal this decision to the Supreme Court of Appeal (“SCA”). On 10 May 2018 the SCA upheld the appeal by the Applicants. NERSA and Sasol Gas each launched an application to the Constitutional Court (“CC”) to appeal the SCA decision. Leave to appeal was granted and the matter was heard on 26 February 2019. On 15 July 2019 the CC handed down its decision. The Court upheld the appeal on the ruling by the SCA relating to the transmission tariffs and accordingly the NERSA transmission tariff decision was confirmed. However, the court dismissed the remainder of the appeal. The Court found that NERSA, in applying the basket of alternatives approach to determine the Maximum Gas Price for Sasol Gas, was irrational as it did not take into account a required material fact for making a rational decision. NERSA’s decision to approve maximum gas prices and a trading margin for Sasol Gas for the period 26 March 2014 to 30 June 2017 was therefore reviewed and set aside. In terms of the court order NERSA will have to consider the overturned decisions anew and decide on the approval of a new maximum gas price for Sasol. In accordance with the rules of the regulator, NERSA will, in considering a new maximum gas price application by Sasol, follow a public participation process that will afford Sasol as well as the affected stakeholders and customers the opportunity to provide input into the decision to be made by NERSA. If the new maximum gas price approved by NERSA for the period of the overturned decision is lower than the actual price charged to customers, then a retrospective liability may arise for Sasol Gas as a result. It is not possible to determine at this time what the outcome of such a price decision by NERSA will be. Therefore, the likelihood of a future obligation cannot be determined currently and neither can an amount for such a possible obligation be reliably estimated. Therefore, no provision has been raised at 30 June 2019. Nhlapo and 941 others versus Sasol Mining (Pty) Ltd During 2009, the applicants in this matter were charged with participation in an unprotected sit-in, threatening and forcing others to participate in an unprotected strike and for assaulting or attempting to assault others during an unprotected strike and subsequently dismissed. The applicants are disputing their dismissal. On 19 September 2019, the Labour Court passed a judgement directing inter alia Sasol Mining to re-instate the employees and pay certain past benefits. Sasol Mining filed an application for leave to appeal the judgement on 10 October 2019. Once the latter has been obtained the appeal will be heard by the Labour Appeal Court. This date has not been set. Management has applied judgement and believe that there is no present obligation in terms of IAS 37. No provision has been raised at 30 June 2019. Other litigation and tax matters From time to time, Sasol companies are involved in other litigation and similar proceedings in the normal course of business. A detailed assessment is performed on each matter and a provision is recognised where appropriate. Although the outcome of these proceedings and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, the company does not believe that the outcome of any of these cases would have a material effect on the group’s financial results. 36.2 Competition matters Sasol continuously evaluates its compliance programmes and controls in general, including its competition law compliance programmes and controls. As a consequence of these compliance programmes and controls, including monitoring and review activities, Sasol has adopted appropriate remedial and/or mitigating steps, where necessary or advisable, lodged leniency applications and made disclosures on material findings as and when appropriate. These ongoing compliance activities have already revealed, and may still reveal, competition law contraventions or potential contraventions in respect of which we have taken, or will take, appropriate remedial and/or mitigating steps including lodging leniency applications. 36.3 Environmental orders Sasol’s environmental obligation accrued at 30 June 2019 was R18 742 million compared to R14 933 million at 30 June 2018. Included in this balance is an amount accrued of approximately R4 924 million in respect of the costs of remediation of soil and groundwater contamination and similar environmental costs. These costs relate to the following activities: site assessments, soil and groundwater clean-up and remediation, and on-going monitoring. Due to uncertainties regarding future costs the potential loss in excess of the amount accrued cannot be reasonably determined. Although Sasol has provided for known environmental obligations that are probable and reasonably estimable, the amount of additional future costs relating to remediation and rehabilitation may be material to results of operations in the period in which they are recognised. It is not expected that these environmental obligations will have a material effect on the financial position of the group. |

The Group Executive Committee (GEC) has the overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the group’s risk management framework. The GEC established the risk and safety, health and environment committee, which is responsible for providing the board with the assurance that significant business risks are systematically identified, assessed and reduced to acceptable levels. A comprehensive risk management process has been developed to continuously monitor and assess these risks. Based on the risk management process Sasol refined its hedging policy and the Sasol Limited Board appointed a subcommittee, the Hedging and Digital Committee that meets regularly to review and, if appropriate, approve the implementation of hedging strategies for the effective management of financial market related risks. The group has a central treasury function that manages the financial risks relating to the group’s operations. Capital allocation The group’s objectives when managing capital (which includes share capital, borrowings, working capital and cash and cash equivalents) is to maintain a flexible capital structure that reduces the cost of capital to an acceptable level of risk and to safeguard the group’s ability to continue as a going concern while taking advantage of strategic opportunities in order to grow shareholder value sustainably. The group manages the capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying assets. In order to maintain the capital structure, the group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to shareholders, return capital to shareholders, repurchase shares currently issued, issue new shares, issue new debt, issue new debt to replace existing debt with different characteristics and/or sell assets to reduce debt. The group monitors capital utilising a number of measures, including the gearing ratio. The group’s targeted gearing ratio has been lifted to 60% until 2021 and thereafter will be managed down to the long-term target of between 20% and 40%. Gearing takes into account the group’s substantial capital investment and susceptibility to external market factors such as crude oil prices, exchange rates and commodity chemical prices. The group’s gearing level for 2019 is 56,3% (2018 – 42,2%; 2017 – 26,4%). Financing risk Financing risk refers to the risk that financing of the group’s net debt requirements and refinancing of existing borrowings could become more difficult or more costly in the future. This risk can be decreased by managing the group within the targeted gearing ratio, maintaining an appropriate spread of maturity dates, and managing short-term borrowings within acceptable levels. The group’s target for long-term borrowings include an average time to maturity of at least two years, and an even spread of maturities. Credit rating To achieve and keep an optimal capital structure, the group aims to maintain a stable long-term investment grade credit rating, recognising that Sasol, like all South African domiciled entities, is constrained (but not necessarily capped) by the South African sovereign rating. In November 2017 S&P downgraded South Africa’s sovereign credit rating from BB+ investment grade to BB with a stable outlook. In December 2018, S&P affirmed Sasol’s rating at BBB-/A-3 with a stable outlook. In May 2019 Moody’s Investors Service affirmed Sasol Limited’s long-term issuer rating at Baa3, however changed the outlook from stable to negative. The national issuer scale rating changed from Aaa.za to Aa1.za. Risk profile Risk management and measurement relating to each of these risks is discussed under the headings below (sub-categorised into credit risk, liquidity risk, and market risk) which entails an analysis of the types of risk exposure, the way in which such exposure is managed and quantification of the level of exposure in the statement of financial position. Credit risk Credit risk, or the risk of financial loss due to counterparties not meeting their contractual obligations. Credit risk is deemed to be low when based on the forward available information it is highly probably that the customer will service its debt in accordance to the agreement throughout the period. How we manage the risk The risk is managed by the application of credit approvals, limits and monitoring procedures. Where appropriate, the group obtains security in the form of guarantees to mitigate risk. Counterparty credit limits are in place and are reviewed and approved by the respective subsidiary credit management committees. The central treasury function provides credit risk management for the group-wide exposure in respect of a diversified group of banks and other financial institutions. These are evaluated regularly for financial robustness especially in the current global economic environment. Management has evaluated treasury counterparty risk and does not expect any treasury counterparties to fail in meeting their obligations. The group maximum exposure is the outstanding carrying amount of the financial asset. For all financial assets measured at amortised cost, the group calculates the expected credit loss based on contractual payment terms of the asset. The contractual payment terms for receivables vary from 30 days to 120 days. The exposure to credit risk is influenced by the individual characteristics, the industry and geographical area of the counterparty with whom we have transacted. Financial assets at amortised cost are carefully monitored and reviewed on a regular basis for expected credit loss and impairment based on our credit risk policy. Expected credit loss is calculated as a function of probability of default, loss given default and exposure at default. The group allocate probability of default based on the external and internal information. The major portion of the financial assets at amortised cost consist of externally rated customers and the group uses the average of Moody’s, Fitch and S&P Corporate and Sovereign probability of defaults, depending on whether the customer or holder of the financial asset is corporate or government related. For customers or debtors that are not rated by the rating agency, the group allocate internal credit ratings and default rates taking into account forward looking information, based on the, debtors profile and financial status. Loss given default is based on the Basel model. The Basel model assumes 35% loss given default for secured financial assets and 45% for unsecured financial assets. Credit enhancement is only taken into account if it is integral to the asset. Trade receivables expected credit loss is calculated over lifetime. Other financial assets expected credit loss is measured over 12 months when the credit risk is low and over lifetime where the credit risk has increased. Credit risk is deemed to have increases when the payment is 30 days overdue and the customer have defaulted, indicating that their inability to honor the debt. No single customer represents more than 10% of the group’s total turnover or more than 10% of total trade receivables for the years ended 30 June 2019, 2018 and 2017. Approximately 50% (2018 – 49%; 2017 – 48%) of the group’s total turnover is generated from sales within South Africa, while about 22% (2018 – 24%; 2017 – 22%) relates to European sales and 14% (2018 – 13%; 2017 – 13%) relates to sales within the US. The concentration of credit risk within geographic regions is largely aligned with the geographic regions in which the turnover was earned. Detail of allowances for credit losses: 2019 2018 Life time 12 months Deductions Expected Impairment Rm Rm Rm Rm Rm Long-term receivables — — Trade receivables — — Other receivables — — Overview of the credit risk profile of financial assets measured at amortised cost is as follows: 2019 % AAA to A- BBB to B- CCC+ and - below An amount of R465 million has been recognised under IAS 39 as at 30 June 2018. During 2019 additional net impairments of R199 million were recognised. The effect of the change was inconsequential on Sasol’s accounting as the expected loss basis is not significantly different from the stringent debtor management policies currently applied by Sasol, and therefore no transition adjustment is presented. Expected credit loss (in both long-term receivables and trade receivables) mainly relate to exposure to Mozambique. Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity in the group will be unable to meet its obligations as they become due. How we manage the risk The group manages liquidity risk by effectively managing its working capital, capital expenditure and cash flows, making use of a central treasury function to manage pooled business unit cash investments and borrowing requirements. Currently the group is maintaining a positive liquidity position, conserving the group’s cash resources through continued focus on working capital improvement, cost savings and capital reprioritisation. The group meets its financing requirements through a mixture of cash generated from its operations and, short and long-term borrowings and strives to maintain adequate banking facilities and reserve borrowing capacities. The group is in compliance with all of the financial covenants per its loan agreements, none of which is expected to present a material restriction on funding or its investment policy in the near future. The group currently has sufficient undrawn borrowing facilities, which could be utilised to settle obligations and is planning for additional facilities to manage the finalisation of the LCCP. Refer to note 16.

Market risk Market risk is the risk arising from possible market price movements and their impact on the future cash flows of the business. The market price movements that the group is exposed to: Foreign currency risk Foreign currency risk is a risk that earnings and cash flows will be affected due to changes in exchange rates. How we manage the risk Our Hedging and Digital Committee sets broad guidelines in terms of tenor and hedge cover ratios specifically to assess future currency exposure, which have the potential to materially affect our financial position. These guidelines and our hedging policy are reviewed from time to time. This hedging strategy enables us to better predict cash flows and thus manage our liquidity and key financial metrics more effectively. Foreign currency risks are managed through the group’s hedging policy and financing policies and the selective use of various derivatives. Our exposure to and assessment of the risk The group’s transactions are predominantly entered into in the respective functional currency of the individual operations. The construction of the LCCP has largely been financed through funds obtained in US dollar, with a small portion of funds obtained from Rand sources. A large portion of our turnover and capital investments are significantly impacted by the rand/US$ and rand/EUR exchange rates. Some of our fuel products are governed by the BFP, of which a significant variable is the rand/US$ exchange rate. Our export chemical products are mostly commodity products whose prices are largely based on global commodity and benchmark prices quoted in US dollars and consequently are exposed to exchange rate fluctuations that have an impact on cash flows. These operations are exposed to foreign currency risk in connection with contracted payments in currencies not in their individual functional currency. The most significant exposure for the group exists in relation to the US dollar and the Euro. The translation of foreign operations to the presentation currency of the group is not taken into account when considering foreign currency risk. Zero-cost collars In line with the risk mitigation strategy, the group hedges a significant portion of its estimated foreign currency exposure in respect of forecast sales and purchases over the following 12 months. The group uses zero-cost collars to hedge its currency risk, most with a maturity of less than one year from the reporting date. Foreign exchange contracts Foreign exchange contracts (FECs) are utilised throughout the group to hedge the risk of currency depreciation on committed and highly probable forecast transactions. Transactions hedged with FECs include capital and goods purchases (imports) and sales (exports). Other transactions hedged include certain intercompany loans which expose the group to foreign currency risk. A number of FECs were entered into during the year and classified as held for trading. FECs are also utilised in the group in cash flow hedge relationships. FECs taken out to hedge exposure to fluctuations in the rand/US$ exchange rate were held over a total notional amount of Rnil million at 30 June 2019 (2018 — R33 million (US$nil; EUR2,1 million)). The following significant exchange rates were applied during the year: Average rate Closing rate 2019 2018 2019 2018 Rand Rand Rand Rand Rand/Euro Rand/US dollar The table below shows the significant currency exposure where entities within the group have monetary assets or liabilities that are not in their functional currency, have exposure to the US dollar or the Euro.

Sensitivity analysis The following sensitivity analysis is provided to show the foreign currency exposure of the individual entities at the end of the reporting period. This analysis is prepared based on the statement of financial position balances that exist at year-end, for which there is currency risk, before consideration of currency derivatives, which exist at that point in time. The effect on equity is calculated as the effect on profit and loss. The effect of translation of results into presentation currency of the group is excluded from the information provided. A 10% weakening in the group’s significant exposure to the foreign currency at 30 June would have increased either the equity or the profit by the amounts below, before the effect of tax. This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular, interest rates, remain constant, and has been performed on the same basis for 2018. 2019 2018 Income Income Equity statement Equity statement Rm Rm Rm Rm Euro US dollar (2 143 ) (2 143 ) 1 053 1 053 A 10% movement in the opposite direction in the group’s exposure to foreign currency would have an equal and opposite effect to the amounts disclosed above. Interest rate risk Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of short term investments and financial activities will change as a result of fluctuations in the interest rates. Fluctuations in interest rates impact on the value of short-term investments and financing activities, giving rise to interest rate risk. The group has significant exposure to interest rate risk due to the volatility in South African, European and US interest rates. How we manage the risk Our debt is comprised of different instrument notes, which by their nature either bear interest at a floating or a fixed rate. We monitor the ratio of floating and fixed interest in our loan portfolio and manage this ratio, by electing to incur either bank loans, bearing a floating interest rate, or bonds, which bear a fixed interest rate. We may also use interest rate swaps, where appropriate, to convert some of our debt into either floating or fixed rate debt to manage the composition of our portfolio. In some cases, we may also use other interest rate derivatives, which enables us to mitigate the risks associated with this exposure. In respect of financial assets, the group’s policy is to invest cash at floating rates of interest and cash reserves are to be maintained in short-term investments (less than one year) in order to maintain liquidity, while achieving a satisfactory return for shareholders. Our exposure to and assessment of the risk The group has exposure to the US dollar London Interbank Overnight Rate (LIBOR) through various instruments, including term loans and revolving credit facilities. In 2015, we entered into an interest rate swap for US$1,95 billion to convert variable LIBOR exposure to a fixed rate. It was designated as the hedging instrument in a cash flow hedge. The swap was novated in June 2019 when the underlying LCCP bank term loan was refinanced. This ended the hedge relationship with hedge accounting discontinued. The swap continues to be an economic hedge that cover a portion of the group’s exposure to the LIBOR and we will redesignate the swap as a hedging instrument in a cash flow hedge in financial year 2020. Developments in respect of the proposed reform of the US dollar LIBOR and the impact thereof on our LIBOR linked debt facilities and interest rate swap are actively monitored. Changes to the interest rate benchmark will be considered in conjunction with the surrounding facts and circumstances at the time and appropriate changes and resetting of rates with counterparties will be negotiated and agreed. At the reporting date, the interest rate profile of the group’s interest-bearing financial instruments, including the effect of the interest rate swap was: Carrying value 2019 2018 Rm Rm Variable rate instruments Financial assets 16 663 18 657 Financial liabilities (54 542 ) (58 908 ) (37 879 ) (40 251 ) Fixed rate instruments Financial assets Financial liabilities (83 151 ) (51 144 ) (82 954 ) (51 047 ) Interest profile (variable: fixed rate as a percentage of total financial assets) 99:1 99:1 Interest profile (variable: fixed rate as a percentage of total financial liabilities) 40:60 54:46 Cash flow sensitivity for variable rate instruments Financial instruments affected by interest rate risk include borrowings, deposits, derivative financial instruments, trade receivables and trade payables. A change of 1% in the prevailing interest rate in a particular currency at the reporting date would have increased/(decreased) earnings by the amounts shown below before the effect of tax. The sensitivity analysis has been prepared on the basis that all other variables, in particular foreign currency rates, remain constant and has been performed on the same basis for 2019. The sensitivity has been calculated including consideration of the effect of existing interest rate swap derivative instruments. Interest is recognised in the income statement using the effective interest rate method. With the swap to be designated as a hedge instrument in financial year 2020, the cash flow hedge reserve will be reclassified to profit and loss on a similar basis. Currently the total notional exposure hedged under the swap is US$1,95 billion (2018 — US$2,00 billion).

A loss of R1 400 million was recognised in other comprehensive income on the revaluation of the cash flow hedge that was offset by a gain of R1 115 million on the reclassification of the swap to profit and loss on termination of the hedge relationship. We will redesignate the swap as a hedging instrument in a cash flow hedge in financial year 2020. Commodity price risk Commodity price risk is the risk of fluctuations in our earnings as a result of fluctuation in the price of commodities. How we manage the risk Crude oil, ethane and coal price The group makes use of derivative instruments, including options and commodity swaps as a means of mitigating price movements and timing risks on crude oil purchases and sales, ethane purchases and export coal sales. The group entered into hedging contracts which provide downside protection against decreases in commodity prices. Our exposure to and assessment of the risk A substantial proportion of our turnover is derived from sales of petroleum and petrochemical products. Market prices for crude oil fluctuate because they are subject to international supply and demand and political factors. Our exposure to the crude oil price centres primarily around the selling price of the fuel marketed by our Energy business which is governed by the Basic Fuel Price (BFP) formula, the crude oil related raw materials used in our Natref refinery and certain of our offshore operations including were chemical prices are linked to the crude oil price. Key factors in the BFP are the Mediterranean and Singapore or Mediterranean and Arab Gulf product prices for petrol and diesel, respectively.

Summary of our derivatives In the normal course of business, the group enters into various derivative transactions to mitigate our exposure to foreign exchange rates, interest rates, and commodity prices Derivative instruments used by the group in hedging activities include swaps, options, forwards and other similar types of instruments. 2019 2018 2017 Income statement impact Rm Rm Rm Financial instruments Net (loss)/gain on derivative instruments Foreign exchange contracts (losses)/gains ) (1 107 ) Put option crude oil derivatives ) (3 303 ) ) Zero cost collar foreign exchange derivatives 1 608 Crude oil futures ) Coal swaps (1 024 ) Ethane swaps ) — Interest rate swaps (1 475 ) Other forex derivative — — (2 465 ) (3 876 ) Statement of financial position impact 2019 2018 Rm Rm Financial instrument Derivative financial assets Foreign exchange contracts Zero cost collar Crude oil options — Interest rate swaps Ethane swaps Other commodity derivatives — 1 827 Derivative financial liabilities Foreign exchange contracts ) ) Coal swaps — ) Crude oil futures ) ) Zero cost collar ) (1 317 ) Interest rate swaps (1 488 ) ) Ethane swaps ) — Other commodity derivatives ) — (2 028 ) (1 912 ) Non-derivative financial liabilities Financial guarantees ) ) (2 205 ) (2 059 ) Derivatives designated in the hedge relationships The group has exposure to the US dollar LIBOR through various instruments, including term loans and revolving credit facilities.

Basis of preparation of financial results | Basis of preparation of financial results The consolidated financial statements are prepared using the historic cost convention except that, certain items, including derivative instruments, liabilities for cash-settled share-based payment schemes, financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and financial assets designated at fair value through other comprehensive income, are stated at fair value. The consolidated financial results are presented in rand, which is Sasol Limited’s functional and presentation currency, rounded to the nearest million. The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis. The comparative figures are reclassified or restated as necessary to afford a proper and more meaningful comparison of results as set out in the affected notes to the financial statements. Certain additional disclosure has been provided in respect of the current year, as described on page 163 “Pro-forma financial information”. To the extent practicable, comparative information has also been provided. Accounting policies The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these consolidated financial statements are in terms of IFRS and are consistent with those applied in the consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2018, except for the adoption of IFRS 9 ‘Financial Instruments’, IFRS 15 ‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers’ and an amendment to IAS 23 ‘Borrowing Costs’ with effect from 1 July 2018. Both IFRS 9 and IFRS 15 were adopted using the modified transition approach, where the comparative financial information is not restated as permitted by the standard. The amendment to IAS 23 is applied prospectively. These accounting policies are consistently applied throughout the group. |
Turnover | IFRS 15 applicable in 2019: Revenue from contracts with customers is recognised when the control of goods or services has transferred to the customer through the satisfaction of a performance obligation. Group performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time and over time, however the group mainly satisfies its performance obligations at a point in time. Revenue recognised reflects the consideration that the group expects to be entitled to for each distinct performance obligation after deducting indirect taxes, rebates and trade discounts and consists primarily of the sale of oil, natural gas and chemical products, services rendered, license fees and royalties. The group allocates revenue based on stand-alone selling price. The group enters into exchange agreements with the same counterparties for the purchase and sale of inventory that are entered into in contemplation of one another. When the items exchanged are similar in nature, these transactions are combined and accounted for as a single exchange transaction. The exchange is recognised at the carrying amount of the inventory transferred. Revenue from arrangements that are not considered contracts with customers, mainly pertaining to franchise rentals, use of fuel tanks and fuel storage, is presented as revenue from other contracts. The period between the transfer of the goods and services to the customer and the payment by the customer does not exceed 12 months and the group does not adjust for time value of money. For further information on revenue recognition, refer to Segment information on pages 12 to 13. IAS 18 applicable to prior periods: Revenue is recognised when the following criteria are met: · evidence of an arrangement exists; · delivery has occurred or services have been rendered and the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the purchaser; · transaction costs can be reliably measured; · the selling price is fixed or determinable; and · collectability is reasonably assured. The timing of revenue recognition is as follows. Revenue from: · the sale of products is recognised when the group has substantially transferred all the risks and rewards of ownership and no longer retains continuing managerial involvement associated with ownership or effective control; · services rendered is based on the stage of completion of the transaction, based on the proportion that costs incurred to date bear to the total cost of the project; and · licence fees and royalties are recognised on an accrual basis. The group enters into exchange agreements with the same counterparties for the purchase and sale of inventory that are entered into in contemplation of one another. When the items exchanged are similar in nature, these transactions are combined and accounted for as a single exchange transaction. The exchange is recognised at the carrying amount of the inventory transferred. |
Employee-related expenditure | Remuneration of employees is charged to the income statement, except where it is capitalised to projects in line with the accounting policy for assets under construction. Short-term employee benefits Short-term employee benefits includes salaries, wages and costs of temporary employees, paid vacation leave, sick leave and incentive bonuses. Long-term employee benefits Long-term employee benefits are those benefits that are expected to be wholly settled more than 12 months after the end of the annual reporting period, in which the services have been rendered and are discounted to their present value. Post-retirement benefits Further information on these benefits is provided in Note 33, and include defined benefit contribution plans, as well as defined benefit plans. |
Remeasurement items affecting operating profit | Remeasurement items are items of income and expense recognised in the income statement that are less closely aligned to the operating or trading activities of the reporting entity and includes the impairment of non-current assets, profit or loss on disposal of non-current assets including businesses and equity accounted investments, and scrapping of assets. The group’s non-financial assets, other than inventories and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each reporting date or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable, to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. An impairment test is performed on all goodwill, intangible assets not yet in use and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives at each reporting date. The recoverable amount of an asset is defined as the amount that reflects the greater of the fair value less costs of disposal and value-in-use that can be attributed to an asset as a result of its ongoing use by the entity. Value-in-use is estimated using a discounted cash flow model. The future cash flows are adjusted for risks specific to the asset and is adjusted where applicable to take into account any specific risks relating to the country where the asset or cash-generating unit is located. The rate applied in each country is reassessed each year. The recoverable amount may be adjusted to take into account recent market transactions for a similar asset. Some assets are an integral part of the value chain but are not capable of generating independent cash flows because there is no active market for the product streams produced from these assets, or the market does not have the ability to absorb the product streams produced from these assets or it is not practically possible to access the market due to infrastructure constraints that would be costly to construct. Product streams produced by these assets form an input into another process and accordingly do not have an active market. These assets are classified as corporate assets in terms of IAS 36 when their output supports the production of multiple product streams that are ultimately sold into an active market. The group’s corporate assets are allocated to the relevant cash generating unit based on a cost or volume contribution metric. Costs incurred by the corporate asset are allocated to the appropriate cash generating unit at cost. If there is an indication that a corporate asset may be impaired, then the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the corporate asset belongs. In Southern Africa, the coal value chain starts with feedstock mined in Secunda and Sasolburg and continues along the integrated processes of the operating business units, ultimately resulting in fuels and chemicals-based product lines. Similarly, the gas value chain starts with the feedstock obtained in Mozambique and continues along the conversion processes in Secunda and Sasolburg, ultimately resulting in fuels and chemicals-based product lines. The groups of assets which support the different product lines, including corporate asset allocations, are considered to be separate cash-generating units. In the US, the ethylene value chain results in various chemicals-based product lines, sold into active markets. The assets which support the different chemicals-based product lines, including corporate asset allocations, are considered to be separate cash-generating units. In Europe, the identification of separate cash-generating units is based on the various product streams that have the ability to be sold into active markets by the European business units. Certain products are sometimes produced incidentally from the main conversion processes and can be sold into active markets. When this is the case, the assets that are directly attributable to the production of these products, are classified as separate cash-generating units. The cost of conversion of these products is compared against the revenue when assessing the asset for impairment. Exploration assets are tested for impairment when development of the property commences or whenever facts and circumstances indicate impairment. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the exploration assets carrying amount exceeds their recoverable amount. |
Disposal group held for sale | A non-current asset or disposal group (a business grouping of assets and their related liabilities) is designated as held for sale when its carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. The classification as held for sale of a non-current asset or disposal group occurs when it is available for immediate sale in its present condition and the sale is highly probable. A sale is considered highly probable if management is committed to a plan to sell the non-current asset or disposal group, an active divestiture programme has been initiated, the non-current asset or disposal group is marketed at a price reasonable to its fair value and the disposal will be completed within one year from classification. Where a disposal group held for sale will result in the loss of control or joint control of a subsidiary or joint operation, respectively, all the assets and liabilities of that subsidiary or joint operation are classified as held for sale, regardless of whether a non-controlling interest in the former subsidiary or an ongoing interest in the joint operation is to be retained after the sale. Where a disposal group held for sale will result in the loss of joint control of a joint venture or significant influence of an associate, the full investment is classified as held for sale. Equity accounting ceases from the date the joint venture or associate is classified as held for sale. Before classification of a non-current asset or disposal group as held for sale, it is reviewed for impairment. The impairment loss charged to the income statement is the excess of the carrying amount of the non-current asset over its expected fair value less costs to sell. No depreciation or amortisation is provided on non-current assets from the date they are classified as held for sale. |
Income tax charge | The income tax charge is determined based on net income before tax for the year and includes deferred tax and dividend withholding tax. The current tax charge is the tax payable on the taxable income for the financial year applying enacted or substantively enacted tax rates and includes any adjustments to tax payable in respect of prior years. Deferred tax is provided for using the liability method, on all temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for accounting purposes and the amounts used for tax purposes and on any tax losses. No deferred tax is provided on temporary differences relating to: · the initial recognition of goodwill; · the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of an asset or liability to the extent that neither accounting nor taxable profit is affected on acquisition; and · investments in subsidiaries, associates and interests in joint arrangements to the extent that the temporary difference will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future and the control of the reversal of the temporary difference lies with the parent, investor, joint venturer or joint operator. The provision for deferred tax is calculated using enacted or substantively enacted tax rates at the reporting date that are expected to apply when the asset is realised or liability settled. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when the related income taxes are levied by the same taxation authority, there is a legally enforceable right to offset and there is an intention to settle the balances on a net basis. |
Treasury shares | When Sasol Limited’s shares are repurchased by a subsidiary, the amount of consideration paid, including directly attributable costs, is recognised as a deduction from shareholders’ equity. Repurchased shares are classified as treasury shares and are disclosed as a deduction from total equity. Where such shares are subsequently reissued, any consideration received is included in the statement of changes in equity. |
Long-term debt | Debt, which constitutes a financial liability, includes short-term and long-term debt. Debt is initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred and is subsequently stated at amortised cost. Debt is classified as short-term unless the borrowing entity has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the reporting date. Debt is derecognised when the obligation in the contract is discharged, cancelled or has expired. Premiums or discounts arising from the difference between the fair value of debt raised and the amount repayable at maturity date are charged to the income statement as finance expenses based on the effective interest rate method. A debt modification gain or loss is recognised immediately when a debt measured at amortised cost has been modified. |
Property, Plant and Equipment | Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Land is not depreciated. When plant and equipment comprises major components with different useful lives, these components are accounted for as separate items. Depreciation of mineral assets on producing oil and gas properties is based on the units-of-production method calculated using estimated proved developed reserves. Life-of-mine coal assets are depreciated using the units-of-production method and is based on proved and probable reserves assigned to that specific mine (accessible reserves) or complex which benefits from the utilisation of those assets. Other coal mining assets are depreciated on the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. Depreciation of property acquisition costs, capitalised as part of mineral assets in property, plant and equipment, is based on the units-of-production method calculated using estimated proved reserves. Property, plant and equipment, other than mineral assets, is depreciated to its estimated residual value on a straight-line basis over its expected useful life. |
Assets under construction | Assets under construction Assets under construction are non-current assets, which includes land and expenditure capitalised for work in progress in respect of activities to develop, expand or enhance items of property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and exploration assets. The cost of self-constructed assets includes expenditure on materials, direct labour and an allocated proportion of project overheads. Cost also includes the estimated costs of dismantling and removing the assets and site rehabilitation costs to the extent that they relate to the construction of the asset as well as gains or losses on qualifying cash flow hedges attributable to that asset. When regular major inspections are a condition of continuing to operate an item of property, plant and equipment, and plant shutdown costs will be incurred, an estimate of these shutdown costs are included in the carrying value of the asset at initial recognition. Land acquired, as well as costs capitalised for work in progress in respect of activities to develop, expand or enhance items of property, plant and equipment are classified as part of assets under construction. Finance expenses in respect of specific and general borrowings are capitalised against qualifying assets as part of assets under construction. Where funds are borrowed specifically for the purpose of acquiring or constructing a qualifying asset, the amount of finance expenses eligible for capitalisation on that asset is the actual finance expenses incurred on the borrowing during the period less any investment income on the temporary investment of those borrowings. Where funds are made available from general borrowings and used for the purpose of acquiring or constructing qualifying assets, the amount of finance expenses eligible for capitalisation is determined by applying a capitalisation rate to the expenditures on these assets. The capitalisation rate of 5,5% is calculated as the weighted average of the interest rates applicable to the borrowings of the group that are outstanding during the period, including borrowings made specifically for the purpose of obtaining qualifying assets once the specific qualifying asset is ready for its intended use. The amount of finance expenses capitalised will not exceed the amount of borrowing costs incurred. |
Assets under construction - exploration assets, oil and gas, coal mining | Exploration assets Exploration assets comprise capitalised expenditure relating to the exploration for and evaluation of mineral resources (coal, oil and gas). Mineral assets comprise capitalised expenditure relating to producing coal, oil and gas properties, including development costs and previously capitalised exploration assets. Oil and gas The successful efforts method is used to account for natural oil and gas exploration, evaluation and development activities. Property and licence acquisition costs as well as development cost, including expenditure incurred to drill and equip development wells on proved properties, are capitalised as part of assets under construction and transferred to mineral assets in property, plant and equipment when the assets begin producing. On completion of an exploratory well or exploratory-type stratigraphic test well, the entity will be able to determine if there are oil or gas resources. The classification of resources as proved reserves depends on whether development of the property is economically feasible and recoverable in the future, under existing economic and operating conditions, and if any major capital expenditure to develop the property as a result of sufficient quantities of additional proved reserves being identified is justifiable, approved and recoverable. The cost of exploratory wells, through which potential proved reserves may be or have been discovered and the associated exploration costs are capitalised as exploration and evaluation assets in assets under construction. These costs remain capitalised pending the evaluation of results and the determination of whether there are proved reserves. The following conditions must be met for these exploration costs to remain capitalised: · Sufficient progress is being made in assessing the oil and gas resources, including assessing the economic and operating viability with regards to developing the property. · It has been determined that sufficient oil and gas resources or reserves exist which are economically viable based on a range of technical and commercial considerations to justify the capital expenditure required for the completion of the well as a producing well, either individually or in conjunction with other wells. Progress in this regard is reassessed at each reporting date and is subject to technical, commercial and management review to ensure sufficient justification for the continued capitalisation of such qualifying exploration and evaluation expenditure as an exploration and evaluation asset as part of assets under construction. If both of the above conditions are not met or if information is obtained that raise substantial doubt about the economic or operating viability, the costs are charged to the income statement. Exploratory wells and exploratory-type stratigraphic test wells can remain suspended on the statement of financial position for several years while additional activity including studies, appraisal, drilling and/or seismic work on the potential oil and gas field is performed or while the optimum development plans and timing are established in the absence of impairment indicators. Coal mining Coal mining exploration and evaluation expenditure is charged to the income statement until completion of a final feasibility study supporting proved and probable coal reserves. Expenditure incurred subsequent to proved and probable coal reserves being identified is capitalised as exploration assets in assets under construction. Expenditure on producing mines or development properties is capitalised when excavation or drilling is incurred to extend reserves or further delineate existing proved and probable coal reserves. All development expenditure incurred after the commencement of production is capitalised to the extent that it gives rise to probable future economic benefits. A unit is considered to be produced once it has been removed from underground and taken to the surface, passed the bunker and has been transported by conveyor over the scale of the shaft head. The calculation is based on proved and probable reserves assigned to that specific mine (accessible reserves) or complex which benefits from the utilisation of those assets. Inaccessible reserves are excluded from the calculation. |
Equity accounted investments | The financial results of associates and joint ventures are included in the group’s results according to the equity method from acquisition date until the disposal date. Under the equity method, investments in associates and joint ventures are recognised initially at cost. Subsequent to the acquisition date, the group’s share of profits or losses of associates and joint ventures is charged to the income statement as equity accounted earnings and its share of movements in equity reserves is recognised as other comprehensive income or equity as appropriate. A joint venture is a joint arrangement in which the parties have joint control with rights to the net assets of the arrangement. An associate is an entity, other than a subsidiary, joint venture or joint operation, in which the group has significant influence, but no control or joint control, over financial and operating policies. Associates and joint ventures whose financial year-ends are within three months of 30 June are included in the consolidated financial statements using their most recently audited financial results. Adjustments are made to the associates’ and joint ventures financial results for material transactions and events in the intervening period. |
Subsidiaries | Control is obtained when Sasol is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the subsidiary and has the ability to affect those returns through our power over the subsidiary. The financial results of all entities that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency of their parent entity are translated into the presentation currency. Income and expenditure transactions of foreign operations are translated at the average rate of exchange for the year except for significant individual transactions which are translated at the exchange rate ruling at that date. All assets and liabilities, including fair value adjustments and goodwill arising on acquisition, are translated at the rate of exchange ruling at the reporting date. Differences arising on translation are recognised as other comprehensive income and are included in the foreign currency translation reserve. |
Inventories | Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes expenditure incurred in acquiring, manufacturing and transporting the inventory to its present location. Manufacturing costs include an allocated portion of production overheads which are directly attributable to the cost of manufacturing such inventory. The allocation is determined based on the greater of normal production capacity and actual production. The costs attributable to any inefficiencies in the production process are charged to the income statement as incurred. By-products are incidental to the manufacturing processes, are usually produced as a consequence of the main product stream, and are immaterial to the group. Revenue from sale of by-products is offset against the cost of the main products. Cost is determined as follows: Crude oil and other raw materials First-in-first-out valuation method (FIFO) Process, maintenance and other materials Weighted average purchase price Work-in-progress Manufacturing costs incurred Manufactured products including consignment inventory Manufacturing costs according to FIFO |
Trade and other receivables | IFRS 9 applicable in 2019: Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less impairment losses. A simplified expected credit loss model is applied for recognition and measurement of impairments in trade receivables, where expected lifetime credit losses are recognised from initial recognition, with changes in loss allowances recognised in profit and loss. The group did not use a provisional matrix. Trade and other receivables are written off where there is no reasonable expectation of recovering amounts due. The trade receivables do not contain a significant financing component. IAS 39 applicable in 2018: Trade and other receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently stated at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less impairment losses. |
Trade and other payables | Trade and other payables are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently stated at amortised cost. Capital project related payables are excluded from working capital, as the nature and risks of these payables are not considered to be aligned to operational trade payables. |
Cash and cash equivalents | Cash and cash equivalents comprises cash on hand, cash restricted for use, bank overdraft, demand deposits and other short-term highly liquid investments with a maturity period of three months or less at date of purchase. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at carrying amount which is deemed to be fair value. Bank overdrafts are offset against cash and cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. Cash restricted for use comprises cash and cash equivalents which are not available for general use by the group, including amounts held in escrow, trust or other separate bank accounts. |
Provisions | Long-term provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows using a pre-tax discount rate to their present value. The increase in discounted long-term provisions as a result of the passage of time is recognised as a finance expense in the income statement. Estimated long-term environmental provisions, comprising pollution control, rehabilitation and mine closure, are based on the group’s environmental policy taking into account current technological, environmental and regulatory requirements. The provision for rehabilitation is recognised as and when the environmental liability arises. To the extent that the obligations relate to the construction of an asset, they are capitalised as part of the cost of those assets. The effect of subsequent changes to assumptions in estimating an obligation for which the provision was recognised as part of the cost of the asset is adjusted against the asset. Any subsequent changes to an obligation which did not relate to the initial construction of a related asset are charged to the income statement. The estimated present value of future decommissioning costs, taking into account current environmental and regulatory requirements, is capitalised as part of property, plant and equipment, to the extent that they relate to the construction of the asset, and the related provisions are raised. These estimates are reviewed at least annually. Deferred tax is recognised on the temporary differences in relation to both the asset to which the obligation relates to and rehabilitation provision. Termination benefits are recognised as a liability at the earlier of the date of recognition of restructuring costs or when the group is demonstrably committed, without realistic possibility of withdrawal, to a formal detailed plan to either terminate employment before normal retirement date, or to provide termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy. In the case of an offer to encourage voluntary redundancy, the termination benefits are measured based on the number of employees expected to accept the offer. Benefits that are expected to be wholly settled more than 12 months after the end of the reporting period are discounted to their present value. |
Post-retirement benefit obligations | The group operates or contributes to defined contribution pension plans and defined benefit pension plans for its employees in certain of the countries in which it operates. These plans are generally funded through payments to trustee-administered funds as determined by annual actuarial calculations. Defined contribution pension plans are plans under which the group pays fixed contributions into a separate legal entity and has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts. Contributions to defined contribution pension plans are charged to the income statement as an employee expense in the period in which the related services are rendered by the employee. The group’s net obligation in respect of defined benefit pension plans is actuarially calculated separately for each plan by deducting the fair value of plan assets from the gross obligation for post-retirement benefits. The gross obligation is determined by estimating the future benefit attributable to members in return for services rendered to date. This future benefit is discounted to determine its present value, using discount rates based on government bonds for South African obligations, and corporate bonds in Europe and the US, that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the group’s obligations and which are denominated in the currency in which the benefits are expected to be paid. Independent actuaries perform this calculation annually using the projected unit credit method. Defined contribution members employed before 2009 have an option to purchase a defined benefit pension with their member share. This option gives rise to actuarial risk, and as such, these members are accounted for as part of the defined benefit fund and are disclosed as such. Past service costs are charged to the income statement at the earlier of the following dates: · when the plan amendment or curtailment occurs; and · when the group recognises related restructuring costs or termination benefits. Actuarial gains and losses arising from experience adjustments and changes to actuarial assumptions, the return on plan assets (excluding amounts included in net interest on the defined benefit liability/(asset)) and any changes in the effect of the asset ceiling (excluding amounts included in net interest on the defined benefit liability/(asset)) are remeasurements that are recognised in other comprehensive income in the period in which they arise. Where the plan assets exceed the gross obligation, the asset recognised is limited to the lower of the surplus in the defined benefit plan and the asset ceiling, determined using a discount rate based on government bonds. Surpluses and deficits in the various plans are not offset. The entitlement to healthcare benefits is usually based on the employee remaining in service up to retirement age and the completion of a minimum service period. The expected costs of these benefits are accrued on a systematic basis over the expected remaining period of employment, using the accounting methodology described in respect of defined benefit pension plans above. Independent actuaries perform the calculation of this obligation annually. |
Share-based payment transactions | The cash-settled schemes allow certain senior employees the right to participate in the performance of the Sasol Limited share price, in return for services rendered, through the payment of cash incentives which are based on the market price of the Sasol Limited share. All the rights have vested with a liability recognised at fair value, at each reporting date, in the statement of financial position until the date of settlement. To the extent that an entity grants shares or share options in a BEE transaction and the fair value of the cash and other assets received is less than the fair value of the shares or share options granted, such difference is charged to the income statement in the period in which the transaction becomes effective. Where the BEE transaction includes service conditions the difference will be charged to the income statement over the period of these service conditions. Trickle dividends paid to participants during the transaction term are taken into account in measuring the fair value of the award. As the funds to pay the trickle dividend are leaving the Company, a corresponding share of earnings will be allocated to the non controlling shareholders. There was one trickle dividend paid during the current year. The equity-settled schemes allow certain employees the right to receive ordinary shares in Sasol Limited after a prescribed period. Such equity-settled share-based payments are measured at fair value at the date of the grant. The fair value determined at the grant date of the equity-settled share-based payments is charged as employee costs, with a corresponding increase in equity, on a straight-line basis over the period that the employees become unconditionally entitled to the shares, based on management’s estimate of the shares that will vest and adjusted for the effect of non-market-based vesting conditions. These equity-settled share-based payments are not subsequently revalued. |

(4) 2019 includes reversal of tax and interest pertaining to Sasol Oil and 2017, includes tax, interest and penalties. (5) Tax losses not recognised resulted mainly from the R1,9 billion (2018 – R2,8 billion) impairment of the Canadian shale gas asset and the Mozambique PSA impairment of R1,1 billion in 2018 for which no deferred tax asset was raised. Refer note 9. (6) 2018, includes profit on disposal of our investments in Petronas Chemicals LDPE Sdn Bhd and Petronas Chemicals Olefins Sdn Bhd.
