EXXARO SETS BENCHMARK FOR
INTEGRATED REPORTING IN SA
Exxaro’s 2022 Integrated Report was the overall winner in Southern Africa at the 2023 CGISA Integrated Reporting Awards – the benchmark for integrated reporting in Southern Africa.
The Awards, which have been co-hosted by the JSE Limited for the past 20 years, aim to encourage accurate and transparent financial reporting and ensure full disclosure of information to stakeholders. Entrance into the Awards is voluntary, and companies submit their Integrated Reports to the panel of experts for judging in one of nine categories. This year’s awards were presented at a prestigious gala banquet at The Wanderers Club.
Why is integrated reporting so important to business?
An integrated report helps stakeholders to identify a company’s strategies, objectives, and risks, while offering a key tool to support corporate sustainability and the promotion of an inclusive stakeholder environment. It’s no wonder that more and more organisations are adopting an integrated approach to their financial and non-financial disclosure to provide a clearer perspective of their business performance, prospects, and impact on stakeholders.
Did you know?
South Africa was the first country in the world to make it compulsory for listed companies to produce an integrated report?
What made Exxaro’s Report a winner?
Exxaro’s Integrated Report took top honours because it provided a clear perspective of our business performance, setting a high bar for good corporate governance and risk management practices.
Exxaro has been ranked 15th on the 2023 Sunday Times Annual Top 100 Companies list.
This annual Award recognises JSE-listed companies for their contribution to the economy and social progress through investments, initiatives, and job creation opportunities. It also applauds these private sector companies for achieving the highest returns for their shareholders over five years. This year’s investment measurement period ran from 31 August 2018 to 31 August 2023, with the winning company being the organisation that created the most wealth and value for shareholders over that period.
Dr Nombasa expressed pride in this achievement saying, “As a diversified mining and renewable energy solutions company, we are proud of this recognition, as it reaffirms our purpose of powering better lives in Africa and beyond.”
