Consolidated Annual Financial Statements
BARLOWORLD LIMITED CONSOLIDATED ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENT 30 SEPTEMBER 2020 Group Finance Director’s Review Financial performance for the year ended 30 September 2020 Group revenue for the year decreased by 17% to R49.7 billion (2019: R60.2 billion). Equipment Southern Africa’s revenue declined by 14% against the prior year but strong against the COVID-19 impact forecast resulting largely from good mining machine sales and resilient aftermarket activity levels. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic and geopolitical challenges Equipment Eurasia revenue increased by 22% benefiting from strong levels of mining activity, particularly in the gold sector. Equipment Eurasia represents our combined Russian and Mongolian Caterpillar operations. Included is one month’s trading results for Barloworld Mongolia that was acquired on 1 September 2020. The Automotive revenue, excluding NMI-DSM which is now equity accounted for, was down 15% in the current year. On a positive note strong used vehicle sales volumes and margins in this segment are being maintained, with cash generation supported by the disposal of properties as well as the right size of the Avis businesses fleet. In Logistics, revenue declined by 27% against the prior year on the back of the contraction of the Transport and Supply Chain Management markets resulting from weaker demand for goods and services. The weakening ZAR resulted in a year to date increase in revenue of R1.3 billion (2.8%) with the bulk of the increase in Equipment Southern Africa and Russia. The EBITDA of R4.8 billion was 25% down (2019: R6.5 billion) with the impact of IFRS 16: Leases for the 2020 financial year, being a favourable R549 million in leasing charges no longer included in EBITDA. -

Safmarine Customer Advisory
April 27, 2018 Advance Containerized Cargo Loading Notices (Pre-Arrival Manifest) – South Africa Dear Valued Customers, The Customs Authority in South Africa has recently announced the full implementation of the Customs Control Act, 2014. The first phase of the Reporting of Conveyances and Goods (“RCG”) under the current Customs and Excise Act, 1964 has been implemented 20th April 2018. The RCG project is intended to provide customs control of all vessels, trains, vehicles, goods and persons entering or leaving South Africa. In order to comply with all customs obligations, advanced containerized cargo loading notices must be transmitted to customs at least 24 hours before the first container is loaded on board the vessel that will transport the cargo to South Africa. This applies to both cargo destined for and to be transshipped via South African ports. At this time, we would like to advise that customers shipping cargo to South Africa should make arrangements to be in compliance with this regulation. We will update you further as information becomes available on mandatory enforcement. Frequently asked questions as per the SARS website: What does RCG stand for and where does it fit in? RCG is an acronym for Reporting of Conveyances and Goods and it is one of the three major projects (the other two being Registration, Licensing and Accreditation (RLA) and Declaration Processing (DPS)) being undertaken under the New Customs Act Programme (NCAP) which is charged with operationalizing the Customs Control Act, 2014 and the Customs Duty Act, 2014. Under what legislation will the first phase of the RCG implementation take place? The rules to section 8 of the Customs and Excise Act No.91 of 1964 will be amended to form the legislative basis for the implementation of RCG. -
