2010-ASX-Top-100-Min Pausing for breath... ASX top 100 miners December 2010 Introduction Welcome to the third edition of Ernst & Young’s ASX top 100 miners, our annual analysis of the 100 largest miners by market capitalization listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX). 2010 has seen the ASX remain one of the most attractive capital markets for mining companies, leading the global mining sector by volume, with 41 new listings1 and ranking fourth globally in terms of capital raised during the period. More broadly, improvements in conditions in the Australian mining sector over the last 12 months has seen market capitalization of the ASX top 100 miners rise 19% on the prior year. This coincided with a strengthening in balance sheets as a result of increased cash holdings and a reduction in total debt. Over the next 12 months we can expect to see those capital rich ASX top 100 miners considering options such as acquisition, consolidation, expansion, or dare we say it, returning capital to shareholders. These investment decisions however, will be impacted by the final minerals resource rent tax (MRRT) framework given its potential valuation impact on companies with coal and iron ore assets. We do of course expect macro events in the coming year, such as the Chinese economy, carbon pricing and the outcome of the European debt crisis to also impact the ASX top 100 miners. I trust you will enjoy this analysis, which aims to provide you with an understanding of the size and scale of Australia’s top performing miners, as well as sharing insights on the leading commodities and issues driving opportunities in the sector. Paul Murphy Asia Pacific Mining and Metals Transactions Leader About this report This publication provides an analysis of the 100 largest miners listed on the ASX at 1 October 2010 and is produced every year at the close of the reporting period. Debt and cash balances have been calculated on financial statements with a balance date of 30 June 2010. All figures throughout this report are sourced from Bloomberg Finance LP at 1 October 2010 and contrasted against figures sourced at 1 October 2009. These dates have been used to ensure the market data incorporates all recent financial reporting and reflects true market trends. This analysis excludes selected international companies with minority listings on the ASX, such as Anglogold Ashanti and Newmont Mining Limited. All financials within the report are recorded in Australian dollars unless otherwise specified. 1 Based on the nine months prior to 30 September 2010 ii Pausing for breath ASX top 100 miners Snapshot Despite an overall annual improvement • 36 of the ASX top 100 miners saw an AIM, ASX and TSX miners series in market capitalization, continued increase in market capitalization in This paper complements our series of uncertainty arising from global economic excess of 100% volatility, the recent Federal election and global papers that provide an analysis • Balance sheets have strengthened of AIM, ASX and TSX listed mining the proposed mining tax in Australia, with total debt of the ASX top 100 companies.
