Sasol Ltd Sponsored ADR

JOHANNESBURG, April 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Sasol has published its business performance metrics for the nine months ended 31 March 2026 on the Company´s website at www.sasol.com, under the Investor Centre section: https://www.sasol.com/investor-centre/financial-results.

The importance of domestic supply of both energy and chemical products and Sasol's role in delivering it was reinforced during this quarter following the conflict in the Middle East and the associated closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

Our response has been focused on sustaining uninterrupted operations and leveraging our integrated value chain to ensure consistent supply of products to our customers while maintaining discipline on cost and capital spend.  

Safety

Safety remains our foremost value. While we have seen improvements in key indicators, including hospitalisations and fire, explosion and release (FER) metrics, we are deeply saddened to report that a fatality occurred on 16 April 2026 at our Secunda Operations (SO). It serves as a stark reminder of the critical importance of safety in everything we do. We remain focused on strengthening our safety culture across the business, with a clear commitment to ensuring every employee and service provider returns home safely, every day.

Following recent developments in the Middle East, we confirm that all employees in our operations and offices in affected areas are safe.

Business performance

In the Southern Africa business, the destoning plant continued to deliver improved coal quality, with average sinks in line with expectations and higher coal production reducing external coal purchases. In Mozambique, country-wide flooding impacted condensate logistics and transportation, that necessitated reducing gas production. Overall SO production benefitted from improved coal quality and gasifier availability despite plant outages in Q3, however, was 8% higher than the prior year.

Natref increased production during the quarter, supported by strong market demand linked to energy security concerns. Despite the Middle East conflict constraining sour crude supply, Sasol mitigated this through sourcing sour crude from other regions, resulting in continued strong sales volumes for the quarter. ORYX GTL production was significantly lower, following the shutdown of the plant due to gas supply disruption in early March, with the timing of a restart remaining uncertain. Revenue for Chemicals Africa increased compared to the previous quarter, driven by higher volumes and prices.

In the International Chemicals business, performance reflected a mixed macro environment. In the United States, the business benefited from more favourable pricing and improved production performance. In Eurasia, sales were higher on tightened global supply, but higher input costs and feedstock constraints impacted production, resulting in the force majeure on certain products. While tight supply is supporting current demand, we remain cautious on the medium-term outlook, focusing on managing input cost pressures to support margins and optimising production across our value chains.

We continue to actively manage our exposure to oil price and currency volatility through our hedging programme. During the quarter, we completed our FY27 oil hedging programme, securing downside protection while retaining upside participation. The ZAR/USD hedging programme for FY27 is still underway.

Business updates

Strengthen the foundation business:

The Integrated Processing Facility (IPF) for the PSA (Production Sharing Agreement) became operational in March 2026, which enabled the first in-country production of LPG. This displaces a significant quantity of imported LPG, while also contributing additional natural gas, light oil and condensate production.

In March 2026, Sasol successfully issued a US$750 million seven-year bond at a coupon rate of 8,75%. The proceeds were used to partially repurchase the 2028 and 2029 bonds, resulting in the transaction being debt-neutral, while successfully extending the debt maturity profile and retaining a strong liquidity position.

Grow and Transform:

Sasol achieved a significant milestone in Q3 FY26, with Natref becoming the first refinery in Africa to attain International Sustainability & Carbon Certification PLUS (ISCC PLUS) product sustainability certification. The certification covers Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and Renewable Diesel produced through the co-processing of used cooking and vegetable oil feedstocks, as well as the production of certified sustainable chemicals at Sasol's Secunda Operations.

Outlook

Our previous FY26 guidance remains unchanged, except for the following:

• Fuel sales volumes have been revised upwards from 5 - 10% higher to 10 - 15% higher than FY25 due to stable SO production, higher Natref volumes and increased demand;
• Gas production volumes have been revised down from 0 - 5% below FY25 to 5 - 10% below FY25, due to the Mozambican flooding and well availability constraints at the Petroleum Production Agreement (PPA) asset;
• Capital expenditure has been revised downwards from R22 - 24bn to R20 - 22bn, supported by ongoing capital optimisation and the deferral of non-critical shutdowns. Working capital has increased following the Middle East conflict. Prudent working capital management remains a key focus area for the business for the remainder of FY26.

Looking ahead, the operating environment is expected to remain volatile, driven by ongoing geopolitical uncertainty and evolving market dynamics. We remain focused on maintaining operational continuity, supporting our customers and proactively responding to changing market conditions.

NOT FOR RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION IN OR INTO, OR TO ANY PERSON RESIDENT AND/OR LOCATED IN, ANY JURISDICTION WHERE SUCH RELEASE, PUBLICATION OR DISTRIBUTION IS UNLAWFUL

JOHANNESBURG, April 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Sasol Financing USA LLC (NYSE: SSL) ("Sasol" or the "Company") announced today the early tender results of its previously announced tender offer (the "Capped Tender Offer") to purchase for cash up to $333,796,000 aggregate principal amount (the "Capped Maximum Amount") of its 8.750% notes due 2029 (the "2029 Notes"). The Capped Tender Offer is being made pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated March 30, 2026 (the "Offer to Purchase"). The Company refers investors to the Offer to Purchase for the complete terms and conditions of the Capped Tender Offer. Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Offer to Purchase (as defined below) are used herein as therein defined.

As of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on April 13, 2026 (such date and time, the "Early Tender Date"), according to information provided to Kroll Issuer Services Limited, the tender agent for the Capped Tender Offer, the aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Notes listed in the table below has been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn. Withdrawal rights for the 2029 Notes will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, April 28, 2026, unless extended by the Company in its sole discretion. 

Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the Capped Tender Offer, the Company expects to accept for purchase all 2029 Notes that were validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Date up to the Capped Maximum Amount. The Company expects to make payment for the accepted 2029 Notes on April 30, 2026 (the "Capped Tender Offer Settlement Date"). The Company intends to fund the purchase of validly tendered and accepted 2029 Notes on the Capped Tender Offer Settlement Date with the net proceeds from its $750,000,000 senior notes due 2033 issued on April 10, 2026.

The Capped Tender Offer is scheduled to expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on April 28, 2026. However, because the aggregate principal amount of 2029 Notes validly tendered as of the Early Tender Date exceeds the Capped Maximum Amount, the Company does not expect to accept any 2029 Notes tendered after the Early Tender Date.

The consideration to be paid for the 2029 Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn per $1,000 principal amount of such 2029 Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Capped Tender Offer is the amount set forth in the table above under the heading "Total Consideration." The amounts set forth in the table above under "Total Consideration" include an early tender premium of $30.00 per $1,000 principal amount of 2029 Notes accepted for purchase (the "Early Tender Premium"). Each holder who validly tendered and did not validly withdraw its 2029 Notes at or prior to the Early Tender Date and whose 2029 Notes are accepted for purchase will be entitled to receive the applicable "Total Consideration" set forth in the table above under the heading "Total Consideration," which includes the Early Tender Premium, on a prorated basis if applicable. All holders of 2029 Notes accepted for purchase will also receive accrued interest from, and including, the most recent applicable interest payment date preceding the Capped Tender Offer Settlement Date to, but not including, the Capped Tender Offer Settlement Date, if and when such 2029 Notes are accepted for payment.
