Thursday, 12 May 2022. Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited (“Harmony” or “the Company”) is pleased to report its operational performance for the nine months ended 31 March 2022. Over the past few quarters, there has been a renewed wave of uncertainty, specifically for gold, as inflation seems to be returning after an almost 30-year hiatus. This uncertainty has been compounded by concerns of low economic growth, the increasing risk of conflict and further supply chain disruptions. Despite our stringent controls and leaner operating model, we are not immune to the effects of rising costs. Cost increases are now a worldwide concern and it is imperative we continue to scrutinise our costs while adapting to what seems to be a period of higher inflation with protracted supply chain disruptions. Encouragingly, Harmony has made significant progress in resolving and adapting to the various disruptions which impacted production across its operations in South Africa and Papua New Guinea during the course of this financial year. Amidst the global uncertainty, we remain focused on our long term goals and objectives. Uncertainty creates both risks and opportunities but we continue investing in our people and in quality assets to improve our structural profitability. We remain committed to creating shared value through the effective and disciplined allocation of capital in order to take advantage of these opportunities. Our strategy is to produce safe, profitable ounces and improve margins through operational excellence and value-accretive acquisitions. By delivering on our four strategic pillars, the balance between meeting our short-term goals and achieving our longer-term objectives will be maintained as we continue “Mining with Purpose”.
