  7. Operating expense increases kept to minimum with R2,2 billion cost saving initiatives Operating expenses by cost element (%) Operating expenses (R million) +7,9% 21% Personnel costs Energy costs 50% 10% Material and maintenance costs Other operating expenses 19% 21 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 10 • Operating expenses increased by 7,9% to R29,1 billion mainly due to: • Material costs increased as a result of higher steel prices and increased levels of maintenance to support current and future growth in rail volumes. • Personnel costs increased to R14,5 billion (2012: R14,1 billion) due to an 8,4% average wage increase as well as headcount and training cost increases in line with MDS requirements, partially offset by a decrease in performance related incentive payments. • Energy costs increased due to higher electricity tariffs from Eskom as well as fuel price increases. • The increase in operating expenses was limited by rigorous cost reduction initiatives amounting to R2,2bn.

  8. EBITDA growth in excess of GDP EBITDA contribution by operating division* (%) EBITDA (R million) EBITDA margin (%) TPL 9% +12,4% TPT +11,5% 8% 21 051 18 882 15 763 14 409 13 200 54% TFR 23% TNPA 6% 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 TE * Excludes specialist units and intercompany adjustments. +0,8 41,9 41,5 41,1 40,5 39,3 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013

  9. Depreciation, derecognition and amortisation, net finance costs, taxation and profit for the year Depreciation, derecognition and amortisation (R million) Profit for the year (R million) Taxation (R million) +11,0% +36,4% 5 140 3 767 2 878 2 436 1 966 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 The increase of 11,0% is due to the ramp up in capital investment over the last 7 years and depreciation of revalued port facilities and pipelines. Net finance costs increased by 36,4% due to increased borrowings of 25,7% to fund the capital investment programme. Net finance costs (R million) -6,7% +5,4% 2 122 5 226 1 980 1 763 4 340 4 184 4 119 1 492 1 508 3 150 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 The reduction of 6,7% in the taxation charge primarily relates to non-taxable income on assets previously written off, but re-recorded to reflect continued useful lives. Despite increase in depreciation and net finance costs, profit for the year increased by 5,4% and an increase of 8,3% in headline earnings.

  10. Financial position remains strong

  11. Assets and borrowings Property, plant and equipment (R million) Gearing (%) Return on average total assets (excluding CWIP)(%) +13,4% +25,7% March 2012 Additions Revaluation Depreciation Borrowing costs Other March 2013 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 Including the 2ndGMTN bond issuance to international investors (largest order book ever achieved by a South African corporate issue) at 10-year US$ bond coupon of 4,0%.

Volume growth is attributable to higher than expected demand for manganese exports and capacity being created. Growth in market share arising from the road-to-rail modal shift. +0,7% -5,0% -5,0% 15,0 15,1 22,0 11,9 20,9 11,3 Excluding export coal line 2012 2013 2012 2013 2012 2013 Decline is mainly to the slowdown in economic growth that affected demand from customers. Decline is a result of the migration to NMPP and a slow start to the grain season. Growth was negatively impacted by the economic slowdownand a two month shutdown of the Ressano Garcia line. However, Eskom volumes increased by 22%.

  19. Volumes and operations Rail - Export coal Volumes (mt) Productivity and efficiency Export coal achieved 69,2mt, which could have been higher were it not for the decline in export coal prices and TFR challenges at the Overvaal tunnel. +2,2% 69,2 67,7 62,2 61,9 61,8 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 On-time arrivals (minutes delayed) On-time departures (minutes delayed) Delays in on-time arrivals improved by 11,5% and on-time departures improved by 1,4% due to improved planning and yard count downs – reconfirming the scheduled railway philosophy. Locomotive utilisation improved by 4,8% due to the deployment of new locomotives and improved scheduled infrastructure maintenance. -11.5% -1.4% 289 468 234 375 209 206 332 309 152 248 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 GTK/loco/month (‘000) +4,8% 24 998 23 845 14 728 14 173 13 505 2009 2010 2011 2012* 2013 * 2012 onwards excludes GFB locomotives coal line.

  20. Volumes and operations Rail - Export iron ore Volumes (mt) Productivity and efficiency Export iron ore volumes increased by 6,9% to 55,9 mt despite industrial action at the mines, unplanned mine shutdowns and depressed commodity prices resulting in customer cancellations. +6,9% 55,9 52,3 46,2 44,7 36,8 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 On time departures and arrivals deteriorated by 9,0% and 5,3% respectively compared to prior year due to post commissioning teething problems at a key mine. Locomotive utilisation improved by 10,3% mainly due to the new, more powerful and energy efficient 15E locomotives. On-time arrivals (minutes delayed) On-time departures (minutes delayed) +5,3% +9,0% 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 GTK/loco/month (‘000) +10,3% 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013

  21. Volumes and operations Ports - Containers Volumes (‘000 TEUs) Productivity and efficiency Container volumes increased by a marginal 1,2% due to subdued economic growth, despite the R1 billion automotive and container export rebate programme to promote economic activity. +1,2% 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 DCTPier 1 was negatively impacted by unauthorised labour action during the year, resulting in a decrease to 23 GCH for the year. DCTPier 2 achieved a 21,7% increase to 28 GCH due to new equipment. Ngqura Container Terminal achieved a 6,6% increase to 32 GCH and Cape Town Container Terminal achieved a 10,0% increase to 31 GCH through integrated planning and enhanced maintenance.

  28. Audit opinion, Controls and PFMA

  29. Audit Opinion – Internal Audit • Based on the reviews executed by Transnet Internal Audit (TIA), their overall assessment of the effectiveness of the system of internal controls and risk management for the year is as follows: • In the opinion of the Audit Committee, the internal controls of the Company are considered appropriate in terms of: • Meeting the strategic objectives of the Company; • Evaluating and mitigating the key risks facing the company; • Ensuring compliance with applicable laws and regulations; • Ensuring the Company’ s assets are safeguarded; and • Ensuring that transactions undertaken are correctly recorded in the Company’s accounting records. • Audit Opinion – External Audit • External Auditors of Transnet SOC Limited have expressed an unfounded audit opinion on the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2013. 2013 Internal Control, Audit Opinion and PFMA

  30. PFMA – Reportable items for 2013 andItems reported internally below the materiality threshold • The Shareholder Representative has determined that the materiality limit for reporting in terms of sections 55(2) (b) (i), (ii) and (iii) of the PFMA is R25 million per transaction. In terms of this materiality framework, one item is reported as irregular expenditure. • Irregular Expenditure - Expenditure in excess of the approved budget without the necessary approval. • The total expenditure to a service provider for the procurement of container handling equipment was exceeded by more than 10% without prior approval being obtained as required by the procurement procedures. Three written warnings have been issued and management will determine if further disciplinary actions are required pending the outcome of additional investigations. Value was derived by the Company as a result of the additional cost of R30 million, and R700 000 was refunded by the supplier subsequent to the initial forensic investigation. Refresher procurement training and awareness is also underway to ensure relevant stakeholders are aware of the requirements contained in clause 2.5.1.1 of the Procurement Procedures Manual (PPM). Amounts classified as fruitless and wasteful and irregular expenditure as well as losses through criminal conduct, below the materiality limit are reported internally to the Group Executive Committee and the Board to ensure that control weaknesses are identified and that corrective action is taken. * Represents cumulative reportable items of the same nature, and the numbers in brackets represent prior year. The above table also reflects the disciplinary steps taken against employees for non-compliance to the PFMA. It reflects the number of finalised disciplinary cases instituted against employees. However, it must also be noted that of the 31 disciplinary actions pending at the time of above reporting, 25 (Criminal conduct - 1; Fruitless & wasteful expenditure - 12; and Irregular expenditure – 12) actions have subsequently been finalised to date. The remaining 6 cases are in progress.

  31. PFMA actions to reduce violations Pursuant to the significant increase in and on-going reportable PFMA incidents resulting mainly from non-compliance with Procurement Policies and Procedures, the Company has made a commitment in 2012/13 to prevent/reduce such irregular expenditure by embarking on various initiatives to achieve a sustainable solution. 15 initiatives were undertaken in 2013/14 to decrease fruitless & wasteful and irregular expenditure, and 10 have been completed and 5 carried over to 2014/15.
