Ghana
London, Denver, Johannesburg, 9 May 2025 – AngloGold
Ashanti plc(2) (“AngloGold Ashanti”, “AGA”, the “Company” or
the “Group”) reported a sevenfold increase in free cash flow*
and an almost eightfold rise in profit attributable to equity
shareholders in Q1 2025 compared to Q1 2024,
underpinned by higher gold production(3), effective cost
management, and a stronger gold price.
The Company generated $403m in free cash flow*(6) in Q1
2025, representing a 607% year-on-year increase from
$57m in Q1 2024. This performance was supported by a
28% rise in gold production from managed operations(1)(2)(3)
year-on-year, primarily driven by the first-time contribution
from the recently acquired Sukari Gold Mine(2) in Egypt and
solid output improvements at both Siguiri and Tropicana. The
average gold price received per ounce* increased to
$2,874/ oz in Q1 2025, up from $2,063/oz in Q1 2024.
"This is a very strong start to the year, particularly at our
managed operations(1),” said CEO Alberto Calderon. “We’ve
seen strong growth in production with the addition of Sukari
and our cost control efforts continue to offset inflation, which
has ensured that we capture the benefit of the higher gold
price.”
AngloGold Ashanti remains committed to closing the
valuation gap with its North American peers by driving
continuous improvements in operating performance,
enhancing cash conversion, extending life-of-mine, and
maintaining a disciplined approach to capital allocation. The
company continues to actively manage its portfolio, with the
sale earlier this week of the Doropo and ABC Projects in
Ivory Coast as it seeks to sharpen focus on its existing
operations and projects in the United States.
Quarterly dividend in line with new policy
Under its new dividend policy, AngloGold Ashanti will target a
50% payout of annual free cash flow*, subject to maintaining
an Adjusted net debt* to Adjusted EBITDA* ratio of 1.0 times.
The new dividend policy also introduced a base dividend of
$0.50 per share per annum, payable in quarterly instalments
of $0.125 per share. When required, a true-up payment in
Q4 of each year will top up the annual base dividend of
$0.50 per share to reach the 50% annual free cash flow*
target. The base dividend establishes a minimum return,
ensuring consistent shareholder payouts throughout
commodity price cycles. An interim dividend of $63m or 12.5
US cents per share was declared for Q1 2025.
Strong growth in earnings, cash flow
Adjusted EBITDA* increased 158% year-on-year to
$1.120bn in Q1 2025, from $434m in Q1 2024. Headline
earnings(4) rose sharply to $447m, or $0.88 per share, in Q1
2025, compared to $58m, or $0.14 per share in Q1 2024 —
an increase of 671% and 529% year-on-year, respectively.
The balance sheet continues to go from strength to strength.
Adjusted net debt* fell 60% year-on-year to $525m in Q1
2025 from $1.322bn in Q1 2024. The Adjusted net debt* to
Adjusted EBITDA* ratio improved to 0.15x in Q1 2025, from
0.86x in Q1 2024. There was approximately $3.0bn in
liquidity, including cash and cash equivalents of $1.5bn, at
quarter end.
Improvements driven by managed operations(1)
Gold production for the Group(1)(2)(3) increased substantially
by 22% year-on-year to 720,000oz in Q1 2025, up from
591,000oz in Q1 2024. The strong uplift reflects the first full-
quarter contribution of 117,000oz from Sukari, Egypt’s
largest gold mine, and a notable uplift in consistency and
reliability across the legacy portfolio. This broad-based
operational strength highlights the Group’s success in
integrating its newest asset and driving productivity gains
across its established operations.
The strong result was driven by a strong performance from
managed operations(1), partially offset by operating
challenges at the non-managed joint ventures. At managed
operations(1), gold production rose 28% year-on-year in Q1
2025, while total cash costs per ounce* and all-in sustaining
costs per ounce* (“AISC”) both decreased 2% year-on-year
to $1,213/oz (from $1,232/oz) and $1,657/oz (from
$1,692/oz) respectively in Q1 2025 compared to Q1 2024.
Meanwhile the non-managed joint ventures experienced
challenges related to grades which caused a 17% reduction
in gold production leading to a 59% increase in total cash
costs per ounce* and a 37% rise in AISC per ounce* in Q1
2025.
Year-on-year gold production improvements were achieved
for the Group(1)(2) in Q1 2025 at Siguiri (+32koz), Tropicana
(+21koz), Cerro Vanguardia (+5koz), Sunrise Dam (+5koz),
Geita (+2koz), and a steady contribution from Obuasi, as
well as the introduction of Sukari into the portfolio. These
increases were partly offset by lower gold production
contributions year-on-year in Q1 2025 from Iduapriem
(-22koz), Kibali (-13koz), Serra Grande (-11koz) and AGA
Mineração (-7koz).
Total cash costs per ounce* for the Group(1)(2) increased by
4% year-on-year to $1,223/oz in Q1 2025 from $1,181/oz in
Q1 2024, primarily reflecting higher royalty payments and an
estimated 5% impact from inflation representing consumer
price index (CPI) changes in the jurisdictions in which the
Company operates. AISC per ounce* for the Group rose by
1% year-on-year to $1,640/oz in Q1 2025 from $1,620/oz in
Q1 2024, driven mainly by a 15% increase in sustaining

CONTINUED
capital expenditure*, which was largely offset by the benefit
of higher gold sales in line with production.
The increase in sustaining capital expenditure* reflects the
inclusion of Sukari and ongoing investment to support asset
integrity and long-term operational resilience, in line with the
Company’s strategic priorities.
Total capital expenditure for Q1 2025 was $336m, up 27%
year-on-year from $265m in Q1 2024. This included $236m
in sustaining capital expenditure* and $100m in non-
sustaining capital expenditure*, the latter directed toward
targeted growth and development initiatives across the
portfolio.
Reaffirming guidance(5)
AngloGold Ashanti reaffirms its full-year 2025 guidance.
Gold production for the Group(1) is forecast to range between
2.900Moz and 3.225Moz in 2025. Total cash cost per ounce*
for the Group(1) is forecast to range between $1,125/oz and
$1,225/oz in 2025 and AISC per ounce* for the Group(1) is
forecast to range between $1,580/oz and $1,705/oz in 2025.
Total capital expenditure for the Group is expected to be
between $1,620m and $1,770m in 2025.
(1)The term “managed operations” refers to subsidiaries managed by
AngloGold Ashanti and included in its consolidated reporting, while the
term “non-managed joint ventures” (i.e., Kibali) refers to equity-accounted
joint ventures that are reported based on AngloGold Ashanti's share of
attributable earnings and are not managed by AngloGold Ashanti.
Managed operations are reported on a consolidated basis. Non-managed
joint ventures are reported on an attributable basis.
(2)On 22 November 2024, the acquisition of Centamin plc (“Centamin”) was
successfully completed. Centamin has been included from the effective
date of the acquisition.
(3)Includes gold concentrate from the Cuiabá mine sold to third parties in Q1
2024.
(4)The financial measures “headline earnings (loss)” and “headline earnings


(loss) per share” are not calculated in accordance with IFRS® Accounting
Standards, but in accordance with the Headline Earnings Circular 1/2023,
issued by the South African Institute of Chartered Accountants (SAICA),
at the request of the Johannesburg Stock Exchange Limited (JSE). These
measures are required to be disclosed by the JSE Listings Requirements
and therefore do not constitute Non-GAAP financial measures for
purposes of the rules and regulations of the US Securities and Exchange
Commission (“SEC”) applicable to the use and disclosure of Non-GAAP
financial measures.
(5)The Company is not providing quantitative reconciliations to the most
directly comparable IFRS measures for its Non-GAAP financial guidance
shown above in reliance on the exception provided by Rule 100(a)(2) of
Regulation G because the reconciliations cannot be performed without
unreasonable efforts as such IFRS measures cannot be reliably
estimated due to their dependence on future uncertainties and adjusting
items, including, among other factors, changes in economic, social,
political and market conditions, including related to inflation or
international conflicts, the success of business and operating initiatives,
changes in the regulatory environment and other government actions,
including environmental approvals, fluctuations in gold prices and
exchange rates, the outcome of pending or future litigation proceedings,
any supply chain disruptions, any public health crises, pandemics or
epidemics (including the COVID-19 pandemic), and other business and
operational risks and challenges and other factors, including mining
accidents, that the Company cannot reasonably predict at this time but
which may be material. Outlook economic assumptions for 2025
guidance are as follows: $0.65/A$, BRL5.88/$, AP1,099/$, ZAR18.00/$
and Brent $75/bbl.
Cost and capital forecast ranges for 2025 are expressed in “nominal”
terms. “Nominal” cash flows are current price term cash flows that have
been inflated into future value, using an appropriate “inflation” rate.
Estimates assume neither operational or labour interruptions or power
disruptions, nor further changes to asset portfolio and/or operating mines
and have not been reviewed by AngloGold Ashanti’s external auditors.
Other unknown or unpredictable factors, or factors outside the
Company’s control, including inflationary pressures on its cost base,
could also have material adverse effects on AngloGold Ashanti’s future
results and no assurance can be given that any expectations expressed
by AngloGold Ashanti will prove to have been correct. Measures taken at
AngloGold Ashanti’s operations together with AngloGold Ashanti’s
business continuity plans aim to enable its operations to deliver in line
with its production targets. Actual results could differ from guidance and
any deviations may be significant. Please refer to the Risk Factors
section in AngloGold Ashanti’s annual report on Form 20-F for the
financial year ended 31 December 2024 filed with the SEC.
(6) To enhance comparability with industry peers, AngloGold Ashanti has
revised its definition of free cash flow*, which is a Non-GAAP financial
measure. Pursuant to its revised definition, free cash flow* is calculated
as operating cash flow less capital expenditure. Operating cash flow is
defined as net cash flow from operating activities, plus repayment of
loans advanced to joint ventures, less dividends paid to non-controlling
interests (e.g., dividends paid to non-controlling interests in Sukari (50%),
Siguiri (15%) and Cerro Vanguardia (7.5%)). Free cash flow* figures for
prior periods (including Q1 2024) have been adjusted to reflect this
change in reporting.

QUARTERLY REVIEW
Gold production
Group gold production for Q1 2025 was 720,000oz,
compared to 591,000oz in Q1 2024, representing a 22%
year-on-year increase. This improvement was supported by
a full-quarter contribution from Sukari, as well as strong
operational performances across key assets.
Notable year-on-year production increases in Q1 2025 were
achieved at Siguiri (+32koz), Tropicana (+21koz), Cerro
Vanguardia (+5koz), Sunrise Dam (+5koz) and Geita
(+2koz). Obuasi maintained stable output relative to Q1
- These gains were partially offset by lower
contributions in Q1 2025 from Serra Grande (-11koz), which
continued to face restricted access to the high-grade Ingá
stope; Iduapriem (-22koz), impacted by a seventeen-day
plant shutdown; and both Kibali (-13koz) and Cuiabá (AGA
Mineração) (-7koz). Since the Queiroz plant restarted in Q3
2024, we record gold production only once gold is poured
into gold bars, not when gold concentrate is shipped.
Raw‑ore output climbed 6% year‑on‑year in Q1 2025, while
reported gold bar production fell 11% because 9,750oz of
gold concentrate still awaits refinement. Overall, AngloGold
Ashanti benefited from year-on-year improvements in tonnes
milled and recovered grades across both underground and
open-pit operations, reflecting the positive impact of ongoing
reinvestment in operational enhancement initiatives.
Siguiri delivered a particularly strong performance in Q1
2025, supported by the strategic decision to exclude Bidini
ore from processing. This was complemented by optimised
carbon-assisted operations and increased plant stability,
which enabled higher throughput. The Australian assets also
rebounded well following significant rainfall disruptions at the
end of Q1 2024, contributing to a 40% increase in gold
production at Tropicana and a 9% uplift at Sunrise Dam.
Costs
Total cash costs per ounce* for the Group increased by 4%
year-on-year to $1,223/oz in Q1 2025, from $1,181/oz in Q1
- This increase mainly reflects an estimated 5% rise in
inflation, representing CPI changes in the jurisdictions in
which the Company operates, as well as higher royalty costs
linked to the stronger average gold price received per
ounce* during Q1 2025. These impacts were partially offset
by a weaker cumulative foreign currency exchange rate
against the US dollar, which provided a 4% cost benefit.
Managed operations recorded a 2% year-on-year reduction
in total cash costs per ounce*, despite increases in royalties,
decreasing from $1,232/oz in Q1 2024 to $1,213/oz in Q1
- This improvement was primarily driven by the
inclusion of Sukari following the Centamin acquisition in
November 2024 and continued strong performance at
Siguiri. These benefits were partially offset by operational
challenges and a temporary plant stoppage at Iduapriem.
In contrast, total cash costs per ounce* at non-managed joint
ventures increased by 59% year-on-year to $1,325/oz in Q1
2025, up from $831/oz in Q1 2024, largely due to lower gold
production, higher royalties and higher open pit volume-
related operating costs at Kibali.
All-in sustaining costs per ounce* (AISC) for the Group rose
by 1% year-on-year to $1,640/oz in Q1 2025, from $1,620/oz
in Q1 2024. For managed operations, AISC per ounce*
decreased by 2% to $1,657/oz in Q1 2025, down from
$1,692/oz in Q1 2024, reflecting the positive impact of
Sukari’s inclusion in the portfolio. AISC per ounce* at non-
managed joint ventures increased by 37% to $1,463/oz in
Q1 2025, compared to $1,070/oz in Q1 2024, again driven
by the weaker operational performance at Kibali.
Adjusted EBITDA*
Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and
amortisation* (“Adjusted EBITDA*”) for Q1 2025 was
$1,120m, compared to $434m in Q1 2024. The year-on-year
increase reflects a combination of favourable operational
and market factors, including a higher average gold price
received per ounce*, increased gold sales volumes, and
reduced costs associated with legacy tailings storage
facilities (“TSFs”) and historical governmental fiscal claims.
Additional contributions came from favourable inventory
movements, lower corporate costs, and improved equity
earnings from associates and non-managed joint ventures.
These positive drivers were partly offset by higher volume
related operating costs, higher royalty costs, increased
rehabilitation provisions, and lower indirect tax credits
relative to Q1 2024.
Earnings
Basic earnings (profit attributable to equity shareholders) for
Q1 2025 were $443m, or 88 US cents per share, compared
to $58m, or 14 US cents per share, in Q1 2024. The
significant year-on-year increase was primarily driven by a
higher average gold price received per ounce*, increased
gold sales volumes, lower costs associated with legacy
TSFs and historical governmental fiscal claims, as well as
favourable inventory movements, lower corporate costs and
lower care and maintenance costs.
These benefits were partly offset by higher volume related
operating and royalty costs, increased rehabilitation
provisions, and adverse foreign exchange and fair value
adjustments. In addition, lower equity earnings from
associates and non-managed joint ventures, reduced
finance income, lower indirect tax credits, and higher
taxation had a moderating effect on earnings growth.
Headline earnings‡ for Q1 2025 were $447m, or 88 US cents
per share, compared to $58m, or 14 US cents per share, in
Q1 2024. The increase in headline earnings‡ reflects the
same key drivers that supported the rise in basic earnings
during Q1 2025.
‡The financial measures “headline earnings (loss)” and “headline
earnings (loss) per share” are not calculated in accordance with
IFRS® Accounting Standards, but in accordance with the
Headline Earnings Circular 1/2023, issued by the South African
Institute of Chartered Accountants (SAICA), at the request of the
Johannesburg Stock Exchange Limited (JSE). These measures
are required to be disclosed by the JSE Listings Requirements
and therefore do not constitute Non-GAAP financial measures
for purposes of the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable
to the use and disclosure of Non-GAAP financial measures.
Cash flow
Net cash inflow from operating activities was $725m in Q1
2025, a 188% increase year-on-year from $252m in Q1
- This strong performance was primarily driven by a
higher average gold price received per ounce* and
increased gold sales volumes. These benefits were partially
offset by higher volume-related operating costs, lower
dividends received from joint ventures, and increased net tax
payments.

QUARTERLY REVIEW CONTINUED
shareholders, the Company generated a free cash inflow* of
$403m in Q1 2025, compared to $57m in Q1 2024.
To enhance comparability with industry peers, AngloGold
Ashanti has revised its definition of free cash flow*, which is
a Non-GAAP financial measure. Pursuant to its revised
definition, free cash flow* is calculated as operating cash
flow less capital expenditure. Operating cash flow is defined
as net cash flow from operating activities, plus repayment of
loans advanced to joint ventures, less dividends paid to non-
controlling interests (e.g., dividends paid to non-controlling
interests in Sukari (50%), Siguiri (15%) and Cerro
Vanguardia (7.5%)). Free cash flow* figures for prior periods
(including Q1 2024) have been adjusted to reflect this
change in reporting.
The dividend policy has been revised to target a 50% payout
of annual free cash flow*, subject to maintaining an Adjusted
net debt* to Adjusted EBITDA* ratio of 1.0 times.
Additionally, the new dividend policy also introduced a base
dividend of $0.50 per share per annum, payable in quarterly
instalments of $0.125 per share. The interim dividend, based
on the new dividend policy, for the three months ended
31 March 2025, is 12.5 US cents per share.
During Q1 2025, AngloGold Ashanti received loan
repayments of $60m from the Kibali joint venture, compared
to $14m in dividends and $45m in loan repayments in Q1
- As at 31 March 2025, the Company’s attributable
share of outstanding cash balances awaiting repatriation
from the Democratic Republic of the Congo (“DRC”) was
$47m, up from $39m at 31 December 2024.
Free cash flow* during Q1 2025 was impacted by ongoing

movements in value-added tax (“VAT”) recoveries at Geita
and Kibali, as well as foreign exchange controls and export
duty-related restrictions at Cerro Vanguardia (“CVSA”):
•In Tanzania, the net overdue recoverable VAT input credit
balance (after discounting provisions) decreased by
$16m during Q1 2025 to $147m at 31 March 2025, down
from $163m at 31 December 2024. This decrease
reflects foreign exchange losses of $19m and the
application of $25m in verified VAT claims against
corporate tax liabilities, partially offset by new claims
submitted during the period of $26m and discounting
adjustments of $2m. AngloGold Ashanti expects to
continue offsetting eligible VAT claims against corporate
taxes as part of its recovery strategy.
•In the DRC, the Company’s attributable share of the net
recoverable VAT balance (including fuel duties and after
discounting provisions) increased by $6m during Q1
2025 to $71m at 31 March 2025, up from $65m at
31 December 2024. This increase was driven by $5m in
new claims submitted, along with $1m in discount and
revaluation adjustments.
•In Argentina, the net export duty receivables (after
discounting provisions) remained steady at $3m# during
Q1 2025 relative to Q4 2024. In addition, CVSA’s cash
balance increased by $33m# during Q1 2025 to $167m#
at 31 March 2025 from $134m# at 31 December 2024.
The cash remains available for CVSA’s operational and
exploration requirements.
•During Q4 2024, CVSA successfully paid the final
offshore dividend of $50m# to AngloGold Ashanti by
utilising a currency swap mechanism to secure the
required US dollars. CVSA is expected to commence
dividend payments related to the 2024 financial year in
Q2 2025, following the approval of its local financial
statements and dividend declaration.

Balance sheet and liquidity
Adjusted net debt* decreased to $525m at 31 March 2025,
following the payment of $427m in dividends during the
quarter. This compares to $567m at 31 December 2024 and
$1,322m at 31 March 2024. The Adjusted net debt* to
Adjusted EBITDA* ratio improved significantly to 0.15 times
at 31 March 2025, compared to 0.86 times at 31 March
- The Company remains focused on maintaining a
strong and flexible balance sheet, with a through-the-cycle
target ratio of 1.0 times Adjusted net debt* to Adjusted
EBITDA*.
At 31 March 2025, the balance sheet remained robust,
supported by significant available liquidity. This included the
undrawn $1.4bn 2022 multi-currency revolving credit facility
(RCF) and the undrawn South African R150m ($8m) RMB
corporate overnight facility. The $1.4bn 2022 multi-currency
RCF will mature in June 2029. During the last year prior to
its scheduled maturity, the maximum amount that can be
outstanding is $1.134bn.
In February 2025, Geita Gold Mining Limited, as borrower,
successfully concluded a new three-year unsecured multi-
currency RCF with Nedbank as underwriter and agent,
alongside a syndicate of financial institutions. At 31 March
2025, $95m remained undrawn on the $295m Geita multi-
currency RCF, while the $65m 2022 Siguiri RCF was fully
drawn.
AngloGold Ashanti held approximately $1.458bn in cash and
cash equivalents (net of bank overdraft) at 31 March 2025,
bringing total Group liquidity to approximately $3.0bn at
quarter end.
Capital expenditure
During Q1 2025, sustaining capital expenditure* of the
Group increased by 15% year-on-year to $236m, compared
to $206m in Q1 2024. Sustaining capital expenditure* at
managed operations rose by 17% year-on-year to $223m in
Q1 2025, up from $190m in Q1 2024. This increase was
primarily driven by the inclusion of Sukari in the portfolio and
the acquisition of a new mining fleet at Geita, partially offset
by lower expenditure at Siguiri due to timing of planned
activities. At non-managed joint ventures, sustaining capital
expenditure* decreased by 19% year-on-year to $13m in Q1
2025, from $16m in Q1 2024, mainly reflecting lower waste
stripping capital expenditure at Kibali, aligned with reduced
mining activity.
Non-sustaining capital expenditure* for the Group was
$100m in Q1 2025, a 69% increase year-on-year from $59m
in Q1 2024. At managed operations, non-sustaining capital
expenditure* rose by 60% year-on-year to $80m, from $50m
in Q1 2024, largely due to Sukari’s addition to the portfolio
and increased investment in the Beposo TSF at Iduapriem.
This increase was partially offset by reduced growth capital
expenditure at Havana, Tropicana. Non-managed joint
ventures recorded a 122% year-on-year increase in non-
sustaining capital expenditure* to $20m in Q1 2025, from
$9m in Q1 2024, mainly driven by higher expenditure at
Kibali on waste stripping for the Pamao deposition Project
and continued investment in the solar energy initiative.

QUARTER IN REVIEW
Regional view
Africa region

In the Africa region, managed operations (including Sukari)
produced 407,000oz at a total cash cost* of $1,144/oz in Q1
2025, compared to 278,000oz at a total cash cost* of
$1,245/oz in Q1 2024. In the Africa region, non-managed
joint ventures produced (on an attributable basis) 63,000oz
at a total cash cost* of $1,325/oz in Q1 2025, compared to
76,000oz at a total cash cost* of $831/oz in Q1 2024.
In Ghana, at Iduapriem, gold production was 40,000oz at a

total cash cost* of $1,493/oz for Q1 2025, compared to
62,000oz at a total cash cost* of $876/oz during Q1 2024.
Gold production decreased by 35% year-on-year in Q1 2025
compared to Q1 2024, with production temporarily affected
by a seventeen-day plant shutdown while work was
conducted to investigate and repair a tear in the lining of the
Beposo TSF. During this period, essential maintenance was
completed on the primary crusher and SAG mill, among
other things. Although these actions led to a short-term
reduction in throughput and a decrease in recovered grade
to 1.26g/t in Q1 2025 from 1.53g/t in Q1 2024, plant recovery
remained high at 94.8% in Q1 2025 compared to 96.8% in
Q1 2024. This performance was also influenced by delayed
phase advancement at Ajopa, and geological adjustments
and pit design refinements following a wall slippage at Block
- Total cash costs per ounce* increased by 70% year-on-
year in Q1 2025 compared to Q1 2024, primarily due to
lower gold production resulting from the seventeen-day
stoppage (estimated at approximately 12,000oz) and higher
total operating costs, including higher contractor and
consultant expenses and increased stores costs. These
factors were partially offset by lower labour costs (stemming
from fewer bonus days accrued), reduced power and fuel
expenses, lower royalty payments due to decreased gold
sales, and a higher metals inventory credit attributed to a
lower stockpile drawdown.
At Obuasi, gold production was 54,000oz at a total cash
Iduapriem
cost* of $1,284/oz for Q1 2025, compared to 54,000oz at a
total cash cost* of $1,251/oz during Q1 2024. Gold
production for Q1 2025 remained steady compared to Q1
- Following the successful roll-out of the Underhand
Drift and Fill mining (UHDF) method in the higher-grade
areas of the mine in Q3 2024, UHDF ore tonnes mined for
Q1 2025 increased 72% compared to Q4 2024. As a result,
UHDF contributed 26,349t at 8.94g/t for 7,569oz of gold
production in Q1 2025. Due to the improved health of the
underground mine, no Kokoteasua tailings were processed
in Q1 2025, whereas surface sources contributed 15% of the
feed in Q1 2024. Consequently, total tonnes milled fell 13%
year-on-year, from 323kt in Q1 2024 to 282kt in Q1 2025,
while the average head grade strengthened 21% year-on-
year to 7.33g/t in Q1 2025, compared with 6.07g/t in Q1
- Total cash costs per ounce* increased by 3% year-on-
year in Q1 2025 compared to Q1 2024, mainly due to higher
total operating costs, including increased contractor
spending driven by greater tonnes mined and higher
underground metres developed. Additional factors included
higher labour costs associated with KMS becoming

QUARTER IN REVIEW CONTINUED
operational, and greater stores costs linked to SAG2 Vertimill
and ball mill relining as well as gearbox replacement at
SAG1. These increases were partially offset by higher capital
expenditure credits from Mineral Reserve Development.
In Guinea, at Siguiri, gold production was 80,000oz at a
total cash cost* of $1,521/oz for Q1 2025, compared to
48,000oz at a total cash cost* of $2,188/oz in Q1 2024. Gold
production increased by 67% year-on-year in Q1 2025
compared to Q1 2024, mainly due to a 20% improvement in
recovery, achieved by excluding the Bidini ore from the blend
and supported by optimised carbon management during Q1
- There was a 20% rise in tonnes treated, driven by
improved plant stability. Total cash costs per ounce*
decreased by 30% year-on-year in Q1 2025 compared to Q1
2024, primarily due to a 67% increase in gold production.
This decrease was partially offset by higher direct operating
costs, including labour, mining contractor services,
equipment rentals, and fuel consumption, which arose from
increased mining and processing activities.
In Tanzania, at Geita, gold production was 116,000oz at a
total cash cost* of $1,021/oz for Q1 2025, compared to
114,000oz at a total cash cost* of $1,046/oz in Q1 2024.
Gold production increased by 2% year-on-year in Q1 2025
compared to Q1 2024 mainly due to a 40% increase in ore
tonnage mined, driven by enhanced stope availability and
optimised mining cycles at Nyankanga and Star & Comet
Cut 3, and at Nyamulilima Cut 2. This supported higher
stockpiles and greater feed flexibility. The mine call factor
improved by 13%, and the recovered grade by 12% year-on-
year. The increase was partly offset by 9% fewer ore tonnes
treated year-on-year due to a planned January ball mill
shutdown and coarser grinding from new mill balls. Total
cash cost per ounce* decreased by 2% year-on-year in Q1
2025 compared to Q1 2024, primarily reflecting increased
metal credits from higher stockpiles as mining continued at
Nyamulilima Cut 2. This decrease was partially offset by
higher direct operating costs, including increased labour
expenses, higher mining contractor fees, elevated
underground support costs, higher stores costs, and
additional gold refining and royalty charges associated with a
higher gold price.
In Egypt, at Sukari, the mine performed in line with plan
with gold production for Q1 2025 of 117,000oz (Q1 2024
105,000koz) at a total cash cost* of $826/oz. Gold
production and total cash costs are in line with plan. Sukari
was acquired by the Company on 22 November 2024.
In the DRC, at Kibali, gold production (on an attributable
basis) was 63,000oz at a total cash cost* of $1,325/oz for Q1
2025, compared to 76,000oz at a total cash cost* of $831/oz
in Q1 2024. Gold production decreased by 17% year-on-
year in Q1 2025 compared to Q1 2024, mainly due to lower
recovered grades, reflecting reduced underground ore
treated as a result of operational challenges, leading to a
higher proportion of lower-grade open-pit ore treated. Total
cash cost per ounce* increased by 59% year-on-year in Q1
2025 compared to Q1 2024, mainly driven by the 17% lower
gold production and higher operating costs, including higher
royalty payments due to a higher gold price and an increase
in the royalty rate, as well as higher volume-related open-pit
costs.
Australia region

In the Australia region, gold production (on an attributable
basis) was 135,000oz at a total cash cost* of $1,456/oz in
Q1 2025, compared to 109,000oz at a total cash cost* of
$1,540/oz in Q1 2024.
At Sunrise Dam, gold production was 61,000oz at a total
cash cost* of $1,479/oz for Q1 2025, compared to 56,000oz
at a total cash cost* of $1,634/oz in Q1 2024. Gold
production increased by 9% year-on-year in Q1 2025
compared to Q1 2024, mainly driven by 6% higher
recoveries in the plant due to increased circuit residence
time and low solution losses, and a 2% higher head grade
driven by underground feed. Total cash cost per ounce*
decreased by 9% year-on-year in Q1 2025 compared to Q1
2024, mainly due to higher gold production in Q1 2025 and
favourable inventory-related movements.
At Tropicana, gold production (on an attributable basis) was
74,000oz at a total cash cost* of $1,317/oz in Q1 2025,
compared to 53,000oz at a total cash cost* of $1,294/oz in
Q1 2024. Gold production rose by 40% year-on-year in Q1
2025 compared to Q1 2024, largely due to a significant rain
event in Q1 2024 that temporarily disrupted surface,
underground, and milling activities due to flooding. This
improvement was further supported by a higher head grade,
driven by elevated open-pit mined grades. Total cash cost
per ounce* increased by 2% year-on-year in Q1 2025
compared to Q1 2024, mainly due to higher operating costs,
including increased labour expenses, increased store
expenses and reagent costs, and additional gold refining and
royalty costs due to a higher gold price. These factors mainly
stemmed from increased mining and processing activities.

Americas region

In the Americas region, gold production was 115,000oz at
a total cash cost* of $1,170/oz in Q1 2025, compared to
128,000oz at a total cash cost* of $946/oz in Q1 2024.
In Brazil, at Cuiabá (AGA Mineração), gold production was
58,000oz at a total cash cost* of $897/oz for Q1 2025,
compared to 65,000oz at a total cash cost* of $856/oz in Q1
- Gold production decreased by 11% year-on-year in Q1

2025 compared to Q1 2024. Following the restart of the
Queiroz plant in September 2024, the Company no longer
records gold production at Cuiabá at the moment of
shipment of gold concentrate, but only when gold is refined
and poured into gold bars at the Queiroz plant. Despite the
resulting delayed recognition of gold production at Cuiabá,
the underlying operational performance at Cuiabá remains
robust: raw‑ore production rose 6% year‑on‑year in Q1
- On a poured‑bar basis, reported output declined 11%
because 9,750oz of gold concentrate produced during Q1
2025 is still awaiting refinement and will be converted to
produced ounces once processed. Total cash cost per
ounce* increased by 5% year-on-year in Q1 2025 compared
to Q1 2024, mainly due to the 11% decrease in gold
production in line with mine plan, partially offset by the
weakening of the Brazilian real against the US dollar.
At Serra Grande, gold production was 10,000oz at a total
cash cost* of $2,485/oz for Q1 2025, compared to 21,000oz
at a total cash cost* of $1,306/oz in Q1 2024. Gold
production decreased by 52% year-on-year in Q1 2025
compared to Q1 2024 mainly due to a lower recovered grade
and reduced ore volumes treated, impacted by operational
restrictions in accessing the high-grade Ingá stope. Total
cash cost per ounce* increased by 90% year-on-year in Q1
2025 compared to Q1 2024, primarily due to lower gold
production, partially offset by the weakening of the Brazilian
real against the US dollar and cost reductions in contractor
and refinery services.
In Argentina, at Cerro Vanguardia, gold production was
Merlin, United States
47,000oz at a total cash cost* of $1,201/oz during Q1 2025,
compared to 42,000oz a total cash cost* of $902/oz in Q1
- Gold production increased by 12% year-on-year in Q1
2025 compared to Q1 2024, mainly driven by improved plant
performance and higher head grade. Total cash cost per
ounce* increased by 33% year-on-year in Q1 2025
compared to Q1 2024, mainly driven by higher materials and
labour costs, and increased royalties, partially offset by a
weaker Argentinian peso against the US dollar.

Capital projects update
Tropicana
The Havana underground decline development is
progressing to plan. Detailed infrastructure design is
ongoing. Production of first gold is expected in Q1 2027 as
per the feasibility study.
Tropicana Renewables Project
The Tropicana solar farm and battery energy storage
system, which includes a 24MW solar farm, four 6MW wind
turbine generators, and a 13MW battery energy storage
system, was successfully completed during Q1 2025 as
planned. The integration of 61MW of clean energy into the
existing power system at the Tropicana mine is expected to
reduce diesel and gas consumption for power generation by
96% and 50% respectively, reducing greenhouse gas
emissions by more than 65,000 tonnes a year on average
over the next decade. The project is accretive to Tropicana’s
net asset value.
Sunrise Dam concentrate leach
The Concentrate Leach Project, which will improve
metallurgical recoveries at Sunrise Dam, was approved at
the start of Q4 2024. Detailed engineering designs and
procurement of long lead items are nearing completion.
Construction of the three tanks are progressing to schedule
and on track for painting during Q2 2025. The Concentrate
Leach Project is on track for completion in Q4 2025.
Nevada
In the United States, our greenfield concessions, including
the North Bullfrog Project and the adjacent Arthur Gold
Project (previously known as the Expanded Silicon Project),
are located in the Beatty District in southern Nevada. The
Arthur Gold Project comprises the Silicon and Merlin
deposits.

North Bullfrog Project (“NBP”)
In November 2024, the NBP received approval from the
Management Investment Committee (MIC) to pursue the
engineering design through the detailed engineering phase
of the project. This scope is expected to be complete by the
end of Q2 2025, representing approximately 65% of total
engineering.
Permitting processes are underway for the NBP. The first
round of public scoping occurred in April 2024. The public’s
comments have been primarily focused on potential impacts
to groundwater-dependent ecosystems within the upper
reaches of the Amargosa River. The project team is updating
an alternative plan to consume less water in connection with
the project’s progress through the permitting process. Based
on the latest information available, we anticipate a Record of
Decision from BLM by the end of 2026. As with all permitting
processes, this timeline remains subject to regulatory inputs
and other factors.
The NBP is expected to be the first of the Company’s
projects for the Nevada district. Apart from the initial
production, it is anticipated to allow AngloGold Ashanti to
build a cohesive project development team and improve
understanding of the permitting and project construction
processes in Nevada.
Arthur Gold Project (previously known as the
Expanded Silicon Project)
The successful completion of the Arthur Gold Project
Tropicana, Australia
concept study at the end of 2023 allowed the project to
proceed to the next stage gate of pre-feasibility study (PFS).
The project comprises the Silicon and Merlin deposits. This
programme is expected to continue to be performed
throughout 2025, focusing on the completion of an extensive
drilling programme and further optimisation of development
options identified during a project framing review held during
Q1 2024. The Arthur Gold project deposit gold Inferred
Mineral Resource for 2024 has grown due to exploration
success and reinterpretation of the geological model to
12.91Moz.

As at 8 May 2025, the total issued ordinary share capital of
the Company comprised 504,097,915 ordinary shares of
$1.00 each. Each AngloGold Ashanti ordinary share carries
one voting right. The Company does not hold any of its
ordinary shares in treasury.
This figure may be used by AngloGold Ashanti shareholders
to determine whether they are required to notify their
interest, or a change to their interest, in the Company under
its Articles of Association or to comply with any other
applicable laws and regulations.
Update on the proposed Ghana joint venture
In March 2023 AngloGold Ashanti and Gold Fields proposed
a joint venture to combine their Iduapriem and Tarkwa gold
mines in Ghana. The companies have spent much of the
intervening time in a constructive dialogue with the
Government of Ghana to obtain the necessary approvals.
Over that time, AngloGold Ashanti has identified changes in
its standalone mine plan for Iduapriem which have the
potential to unlock significant additional value. The
companies have decided to pause discussions around the
proposed joint venture to allow them to focus on improving
the current, standalone performance at their respective
sites, while also allowing AngloGold Ashanti to consolidate
the improvements to its long-term mining plan, which
currently shows the highest value of its options.
Sukari tax exemption renewal
On 29 April 2025, the tax exemption granted to Sukari Gold
Mines Company (“SGM”) under the Sukari Concession
Agreement was renewed for an additional 15-year period.
The renewed tax exemption will expire on 28 April 2040. As
a result, SGM will continue making profit share payments to
EMRA in lieu of any taxes imposed by the Egyptian
government on its revenues (including Egyptian corporate
income tax). The tax exemption does not include (i) the fixed
3% royalty attributable to the Egyptian government, (ii) rental
income on property and (iii) interest income on cash and
cash equivalents.
Sale of Côte d’Ivoire Projects
On 1 May 2025, AngloGold Ashanti completed the sale of

the Doropo Project and the Archean-Birimian Contact
(“ABC”) Project in Côte d’Ivoire to Resolute Mining Limited
(“Resolute”). The Doropo and ABC Projects were acquired
by AngloGold Ashanti as part of the Centamin transaction on
22 November 2024. As part of the sale of its two gold
projects in Côte d’Ivoire, AngloGold Ashanti will also acquire
the Mansala Project in Guinea, which is adjacent to its
Siguiri mine, from Resolute. The acquisition of the Mansala
Project remains subject to several conditions, including the
renewal of certain permits and the approval of the
Government of Guinea.
The value of the consideration for the sale of the Doropo
Project is $175m, comprising a cash payment of $150m,
plus either (i) the acquisition of the Mansala Project or (ii) an
additional amount of $25m if such acquisition cannot be
completed within 18 months. The consideration for the sale
of the ABC Project comprises a milestone payment of $10m
in cash on declaration of a JORC-compliant 1.0Moz Mineral
Reserve on the current ABC Project tenements, and a 2%
Net Smelter Royalty over any gold production from any
Mineral Resource on the current ABC Project tenements.
Executive Committee Changes
Mr. Richard Jordinson will retire as Chief Operating Officer
(“COO”) of the Company and a member of the Executive
Committee with effect from 1 June 2025. The Board and his
colleagues from the Executive Committee wish to sincerely
thank Mr. Jordinson for his dedicated service during his
tenure at AngloGold Ashanti. His significant contribution
includes embedding a safe operating culture across the
portfolio, which helped to achieve record safety statistics
during his tenure; designing the pivot to a hybrid mining
method at the Obuasi gold mine; and helping improve the
cost performance of AngloGold Ashanti’s portfolio relative to
its major gold producing peers.
The Company is also pleased to announce the appointment
of Mr. Marcelo Pereira da Silva as COO of the Company and
a member of the Executive Committee with effect from
1 June 2025. Mr. Pereira da Silva joined AngloGold Ashanti
in 2023 and currently holds the role of Senior Vice President:

Operations Director of Vale’s Paraopeba Complex in the
state of Minas Gerais in Brazil following various senior

worked for eight years, including as Director of Operations
and Maintenance at Kinross Brasil, as well as Senior

AngloGold Ashanti’s operating segments are being reported based on the financial information regularly provided to the Chief
Executive Officer and the Executive Committee, collectively identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM). Individual

| NON-GAAP DISCLOSURE I RESULTS |
Non-GAAP disclosure
From time to time AngloGold Ashanti may publicly disclose certain “Non-GAAP” financial measures in the course of its financial
presentations, earnings releases, earnings conference calls and otherwise.
In this document, AngloGold Ashanti presents the financial items “total cash costs”, “total cash costs per ounce”, “all-in sustaining
costs”, “all-in sustaining costs per ounce”, “average gold price received per ounce”, “sustaining capital expenditure” and “non-
sustaining capital expenditure”, which have been determined using industry guidelines and practices and are not measures under
IFRS. In addition, AngloGold Ashanti also presents the financial items “Adjusted EBITDA”, “Adjusted net debt” and “free cash flow”
which are not measures under IFRS either. An investor should not consider these items in isolation or as alternatives to cost of
sales, gold income, capital expenditure, profit (loss) before taxation, total borrowings, cash flows from operating activities or any
other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with IFRS or as an indicator of the Group’s performance. The
Group uses certain Non-GAAP performance measures and ratios in managing the business and may provide users of this financial
information with additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. Non-GAAP
financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative to, the reported operating results or any other
measure of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. In addition, the presentation of these measures may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures that other companies use.
During the financial year ended 31 December 2024, AngloGold Ashanti’s reporting for managed operations shifted from an
attributable basis of reporting to a consolidated basis of reporting. The change in reporting only impacts managed operations with
non-controlling interests (i.e., Siguiri, Cerro Vanguardia and Sukari), whereas joint operations (i.e., Tropicana) which are
proportionately consolidated remain unaffected. Non-managed joint ventures (i.e., Kibali) which are accounted for under the equity
method also remain unaffected and their gold production, related unit revenue and cost metrics continue to be reported on an
attributable basis. As a result of this change in reporting, certain adjustments to exclude non-controlling interests on gold
production, related unit revenue and cost metrics have been discontinued. The metrics for the three months ended 31 March 2024
have been adjusted to reflect this change in reporting.
The term “managed operations” refers to subsidiaries managed by AngloGold Ashanti and included in its consolidated reporting,
while the term “non-managed joint ventures” refers to equity-accounted joint ventures that are reported based on AngloGold
Ashanti’s share of attributable earnings and are not managed by AngloGold Ashanti. Managed operations are reported on a
consolidated basis. Non-managed joint ventures are reported on an attributable basis.
All-in sustaining costs
During 2018, the World Gold Council (“WGC”), an industry body, published a revised Guidance Note on the “all-in sustaining costs”
metric, which gold mining companies can use to supplement their overall Non-GAAP disclosure. The WGC worked closely with its
members (including AngloGold Ashanti) to develop these Non-GAAP measures which are intended to provide further transparency
into the full cost associated with producing gold. It is expected that this metric, which AngloGold Ashanti provides herein, will be
helpful to investors, governments, local communities and other stakeholders in understanding the economics of gold mining.
“All-in sustaining costs” is a Non-GAAP measure which is an extension of the existing “total cash costs” metric and incorporates all
costs related to sustaining production and in particular, recognises sustaining capital expenditures associated with developing and
maintaining gold mines. In addition, this metric includes the cost associated with Corporate Office structures that support these
operations, the community and environmental rehabilitation costs attendant with responsible mining and any exploration and
evaluation cost associated with sustaining current operations. “All-in sustaining costs per ounce - managed operations” ($/oz) is
calculated by dividing the consolidated US dollar value of this cost metric by the consolidated ounces of gold sold. “All-in sustaining
costs per ounce - non-managed joint ventures” ($/oz) is calculated by dividing the attributable US dollar value of this cost metric by
the attributable ounces of gold sold.
Total cash costs
“Total cash costs” is calculated in accordance with the guidelines of the Gold Institute industry standard and industry practice and is
a Non-GAAP measure. The Gold Institute, which has been incorporated into the National Mining Association, is a non-profit
international association of miners, refiners, bullion suppliers and manufacturers of gold products, which developed a uniform
format for reporting total cash costs on a per ounce basis. The guidance was first adopted in 1996 and revised in November 1999.
“Total cash costs” is a Non-GAAP measure and, as calculated and reported by AngloGold Ashanti, include costs for all mining,
processing, onsite administration costs, royalties and production taxes, as well as contributions from by-products, but exclude
amortisation of tangible, intangible and right of use assets, rehabilitation costs and other non-cash costs, retrenchment costs,
corporate administration, marketing and related costs, capital costs and exploration costs. “Total cash costs per ounce - managed
operations” ($/oz) is calculated by dividing the consolidated US dollar value of this cost metric by the consolidated ounces of gold
produced. “Total cash costs per ounce - non-managed joint ventures” ($/oz) is calculated by dividing the attributable US dollar
value of this cost metric by the attributable ounces of gold produced.
Average gold price received per ounce
“Average gold price received per ounce” is a Non-GAAP measure which gives an indication of revenue earned per ounce of gold
sold and serves as a benchmark of performance against the market spot gold price. “Average gold price received per ounce -
managed operations” is calculated by dividing the consolidated US dollar value of this revenue metric by the consolidated ounces
of gold sold. “Average gold price received per ounce - non-managed joint ventures” is calculated by dividing the attributable US
dollar value of this revenue metric by the attributable ounces of gold sold.

Sustaining capital expenditure
“Sustaining capital (expenditure)” is a Non-GAAP measure comprising capital expenditure incurred to sustain and maintain existing
assets at their current productive capacity in order to achieve constant planned levels of productive output and capital expenditure
to extend useful lives of existing production assets. This includes replacement of vehicles, plant and machinery, Mineral Reserve
development, deferred stripping and capital expenditure related to financial benefit initiatives, safety, health and the environment.
Non-sustaining capital expenditure
“Non-sustaining capital (expenditure)” is a Non-GAAP measure comprising capital expenditure incurred at new operations and
capital expenditure related to ‘major projects’ at existing operations where these projects will materially increase production.
While the Gold Institute provided definitions for the calculation of “total cash costs” and the WGC published a revised Guidance
Note on the “all-in sustaining costs” metric during 2018, the calculation of “total cash costs”, “total cash costs per ounce”, “all-in
sustaining costs” and “all-in sustaining costs per ounce” may vary significantly among gold mining companies, and by themselves
do not necessarily provide a basis for comparison with other gold mining companies. However, AngloGold Ashanti believes that
“total cash costs” and “all-in sustaining costs” in total by mine and per ounce by mine as well as “average gold price received per
ounce”, “sustaining capital expenditure” and “non-sustaining capital expenditure” are useful indicators to investors and
management as they provide:
•an indication of profitability, efficiency and cash flows;
•the trend in costs as the mining operations mature over time on a consistent basis; and
•an internal benchmark of performance to allow for comparison against other mines, both within the Group and at other gold
mining companies.
Management prepares its internal management reporting documentation, for use and decision making by the Chief Operating
Decision Maker (CODM), on a total basis.
The key metrics are based on the total ounces, gold income, “total cash costs”, “all-in sustaining costs”, “sustaining capital
expenditure” and “non-sustaining capital expenditure” from each operation and as a consequence includes AngloGold Ashanti’s
share of the “total cash costs”, “all-in sustaining costs”, “sustaining capital expenditure” and “non-sustaining capital expenditure” of
its non-managed joint ventures that are accounted for under the equity method. In a capital intensive industry, this basis allows
management to make operating and resource allocation decisions on a comparable basis between mining operations irrespective
of whether they are consolidated or accounted for under the equity method. This basis of calculating the metrics is consistent with
the WGC’s Guidance Note on the “all-in sustaining costs” metric.
Although AngloGold Ashanti has shareholder rights and board representation commensurate with its ownership interests in its
equity-accounted non-managed joint ventures and reviews the underlying operating results including “total cash costs”, “all-in
sustaining costs”, “sustaining capital expenditure” and “non-sustaining capital expenditure” with them at each reporting period, it
does not have direct control over their operations or resulting revenue and expenses, nor does it have a proportionate legal interest
in each financial statement line item. AngloGold Ashanti’s use of “total cash costs”, “all-in sustaining costs”, “sustaining capital
expenditure” and “non-sustaining capital expenditure” on a total basis, is not intended to imply that it has any such control or
proportionate legal interest, but rather to reflect the Non-GAAP measures on a basis consistent with its internal and external
segmental reporting.
Adjusted EBITDA
“Adjusted EBITDA” is a Non-GAAP measure and, as calculated and reported by AngloGold Ashanti, includes profit (loss) before
taxation, amortisation of tangible, intangible and right of use assets, retrenchment costs at the operations, finance income, other
gains (losses), care and maintenance costs, finance costs and unwinding of obligations, impairment and derecognition of assets,
impairment of investments, profit (loss) on disposal of assets and investments, gain (loss) on early settlement of hedge contracts,
fair value adjustments, repurchase premium and costs on settlement of issued bonds and the share of associates’ EBITDA. The
Adjusted EBITDA calculation is based on the formula included in AngloGold Ashanti’s Revolving Credit Facility Agreements for
compliance with the debt covenant formula.
“Adjusted EBITDA margin” is calculated as the percentage of Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue from product sales.
Adjusted net debt
“Adjusted net debt” is a Non-GAAP measure and, as calculated and reported by AngloGold Ashanti, includes total borrowings
adjusted for the unamortised portion of borrowing costs and IFRS 16 lease adjustments; less cash restricted for use and cash and
cash equivalents (net of bank overdraft). The Adjusted net debt calculation is based on the formula included in AngloGold Ashanti’s
Revolving Credit Facility Agreements for compliance with the debt covenant formula.
Free cash flow
AngloGold Ashanti has revised its definition of “free cash flow” in order to align it with industry practice. “Free cash flow" is a Non-
GAAP measure and, as calculated and reported by AngloGold Ashanti, includes operating cash flow less capital expenditure.
Operating cash flow is defined as net cash flow from operating activities, plus repayment of loans advanced to joint ventures, less
dividends paid to non-controlling interests. “Free cash flow” for the three months ended 31 March 2024 has been adjusted to reflect
this change in reporting.

| During the financial year ended 31 December 2024, AngloGold Ashanti’s reporting for managed operations shifted from an attributable basis of reporting to a consolidated basis of reporting. The change in reporting only impacts managed<br><br>operations with non-controlling interests (i.e., Siguiri, Cerro Vanguardia and Sukari), whereas joint operations (i.e., Tropicana), which are proportionately consolidated, remain unaffected. Non-managed joint ventures (i.e., Kibali), which are<br><br>accounted for under the equity method, also remain unaffected and their gold production, related unit revenue and cost metrics continue to be reported on an attributable basis. As a result of this change in reporting, certain adjustments to exclude<br><br>non-controlling interests on gold production, related unit revenue and cost metrics have been discontinued. The metrics for the three months ended 31 March 2024 have been adjusted to reflect this change in reporting. | ||||||||||||||||

FORWARD-LOOKING I STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained in this document, other than statements of historical fact, including, without limitation, those concerning the economic outlook for the gold mining industry, expectations
regarding gold prices, production, total cash costs, all-in sustaining costs, cost savings and other operating results, return on equity, productivity improvements, growth prospects and outlook of
AngloGold Ashanti’s operations, individually or in the aggregate, including the achievement of project milestones, commencement and completion of commercial operations of certain of AngloGold
Ashanti’s exploration and production projects and the completion of acquisitions, dispositions or joint venture transactions, AngloGold Ashanti’s liquidity and capital resources and capital
expenditures, the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic and the outcome and consequences of any potential or pending litigation or regulatory proceedings or environmental, health and safety
issues, are forward-looking statements regarding AngloGold Ashanti’s financial reports, operations, economic performance and financial condition. These forward-looking statements or forecasts are
not based on historical facts, but rather reflect our current beliefs and expectations concerning future events and generally may be identified by the use of forward-looking words, phrases and
expressions such as “believe”, “expect”, “aim”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “foresee”, “forecast”, “predict”, “project”, “estimate”, “likely”, “may”, “might”, “could”, “should”, “would”, “seek”, “plan”, “scheduled”,
“possible”, “continue”, “potential”, “outlook”, “target” or other similar words, phrases, and expressions; provided that the absence thereof does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking.
Similarly, statements that describe our objectives, plans or goals are or may be forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements or forecasts involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors that may cause AngloGold Ashanti’s actual results, performance, actions or achievements to differ materially from the anticipated results, performance, actions or
achievements expressed or implied in these forward-looking statements. Although AngloGold Ashanti believes that the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements and forecasts are
reasonable, no assurance can be given that such expectations will prove to have been correct. Accordingly, results, performance, actions or achievements could differ materially from those set out
in the forward-looking statements as a result of, among other factors, changes in economic, social, political and market conditions, including related to inflation or international conflicts, the success
of business and operating initiatives, changes in the regulatory environment and other government actions, including environmental approvals, fluctuations in gold prices and exchange rates, the
outcome of pending or future litigation proceedings, any supply chain disruptions, any public health crises, pandemics or epidemics (including the COVID-19 pandemic), the failure to maintain
effective internal control over financial reporting or effective disclosure controls and procedures, the inability to remediate one or more material weaknesses, or the discovery of additional material
weaknesses, in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, and other business and operational risks and challenges and other factors, including mining accidents. For a discussion of
such risk factors, refer to AngloGold Ashanti’s annual report on Form 20-F for the financial year ended 31 December 2024 filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
These factors are not necessarily all of the important factors that could cause AngloGold Ashanti’s actual results, performance, actions or achievements to differ materially from those expressed in
any forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable factors could also have material adverse effects on AngloGold Ashanti’s future results, performance, actions or achievements.
Consequently, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. AngloGold Ashanti undertakes no obligation to update publicly or release any revisions to these
forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except to the extent required by applicable law. All
subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements attributable to AngloGold Ashanti or any person acting on its behalf are qualified by the cautionary statements herein.

financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the reported operating results or cash flow from operations or any other measures of performance prepared in
accordance with IFRS. In addition, the presentation of these measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures other companies may use.
