Sibanye Stillwater (SBSW) investor relations material

Strategic overview and future direction

• Strategy refresh emphasizes value creation through diversification, simplification, performance excellence, and disciplined capital allocation, focusing on long-term megatrends and operational excellence.

• Four strategic pillars: simplification, performance excellence, growth anchored in returns, and disciplined capital allocation, with South African operations as the core earnings and value driver.

• Portfolio includes five core businesses: SA PGMs, SA gold, US PGMs, US recycling, and Keliber lithium, with a strong commitment to South Africa as the foundation.

• Chrome has become a strategic value driver, with plans to become a top global producer and enhance project economics, contributing 8% of SA PGM revenue in 2025 and supported by the Chrome Management Agreement with Glencore.

• Sustainability is embedded, targeting carbon neutrality by 2040, water independence by 2028, and significant community impact.

Operational and project execution

• SA PGM operations benefit from a 70km contiguous ore body, enabling mechanized, lower-cost, long-life mining with robust brownfields pipeline and reserves supporting 32–45 years of production at Rustenburg and Marikana.

• Key brownfields projects (Siphumelele, Thembelani, K4, East 3/4, Kopaneng, Saffy, Bathopele) are phased to maximize flexibility, capital efficiency, and resource extraction, sustaining ~1.5Moz underground production and increasing UG2 mix to 80% by 2035.

• K4 shaft project is 77% complete, targeting steady-state by 2033 with a 48-year economic life and NPV of R17.6bn.

• Chrome recovery and processing upgrades, including fine chrome technology and a new chrome management agreement with Glencore, support margin growth and structurally improve margins.

• Gold operations are transitioning from deep-level, high-cost assets to a shallower, higher-margin, lower-risk profile, with Burnstone (expected 25-year LoM, NPV R19.2bn, IRR 36.1%) and DRDGOLD (22-year LoM, Vision 2028 targeting 3Mtpm throughput and 200,000oz annual output) as future pillars.

Financial guidance and capital allocation

• Capital allocation prioritizes operational excellence, debt reduction, and disciplined investment in high-return projects, maintaining a third/third/third split between returns, debt, and growth.

• Dividend policy remains at 25%-35% of normalized earnings, with flexibility to adjust based on market conditions.

• Gross debt reduced by 17% YTD, targeting a 50% reduction within 2-3 years from US$2.4bn, with refinancing and deleveraging ahead of schedule and strong liquidity headroom.

• Current and approved projects are fully fundable; up to 80% of the project pipeline could be funded under supportive conditions, with partnership models considered for the remainder.

• Capital allocation is designed to be resilient through cycles, with flexibility to adjust growth, dividends, and debt reduction as needed.
