ANGLOGOLD ASHANTI LIMITED
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE THREE
MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2011
Prepared in accordance with US GAAP
Note A. Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (US
GAAP) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information
and footnotes required by US GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management,
all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31,
2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending
December 31, 2011.
The balance sheet as at December 31, 2010 has been derived from the audited financial statements
at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for
complete financial statements.
For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto
included in the Companys annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2010.
Note B. Accounting developments
Recently adopted pronouncements
Fair value measurements
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards
Codification (the Codification or ASC) guidance for disclosures about fair value measurements
was updated requiring level 3 disclosure details regarding separate information about purchases,
sales, issuances, and settlements in the reconciliation of fair value measurements using
significant unobservable inputs. The disclosures related to Level 3 fair value measurements are
effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption
of the updated guidance had no impact on the Companys financial statements as the Company does not
have Level 3 fair value measurements.
Disclosures about the credit quality of financing receivables and the allowance for
credit losses
In July 2010, the FASB issued guidance for the disclosure of the allowance for credit losses
and financing receivable modifications. The expanded disclosures include roll-forward schedules of
the allowance for credit losses and enhanced disclosure of financing receivables that were modified
during a reporting period and those that were previously modified and have re-defaulted. The new
disclosure requirements are required for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December
15, 2010. Except for presentation changes, the adoption had no impact on the Companys financial
statements.

Prepared in accordance with US GAAP
Note B. Accounting developments (continued)
Recently issued pronouncements
Fair value measurements
In May 2011, the FASB issued updated guidance on fair value measurement and disclosure
requirements. The requirements do not extend the use of fair value accounting, but provide guidance
on how it should be applied where its use is already required or permitted by other standards
within US GAAP. The update will supersede most of the FASB ASC guidance for fair value
measurements, although many of the changes are clarifications of existing guidance or wording
changes. The amendments are effective in the first quarter of 2012. The Company does not expect the
adoption of the updated guidance to have a material impact on the Companys financial
statements.
Presentation of comprehensive income
In June 2011, the FASB issued guidance for disclosures about comprehensive income. The
guidance is intended to increase the prominence of other comprehensive income in financial
statements. The main provisions of the guidance provide that an entity that reports items of other
comprehensive income has the option to present comprehensive income in either one statement or two
consecutive statements. The current option in US GAAP that permits the presentation of other
comprehensive income in the statement of changes in equity will be eliminated. The amendments are
effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15,
2011 and should be applied retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company plans to adopt
the two consecutive statement approach and does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a
material impact on the Companys financial statements.

Convertible bonds
The issue of convertible bonds in the aggregate principal amount of $732.5 million at an interest rate of
3.5 percent was concluded on May 22, 2009. These bonds are convertible into ADSs at an initial conversion price of
$47.6126. The conversion price is subject to standard weighted average anti-dilution protection. The convertible
bonds were issued by AngloGold Ashanti Holdings Finance plc, a finance company wholly-owned by AngloGold Ashanti
Limited. AngloGold Ashanti Limited has fully and unconditionally guaranteed the convertible bonds issued by AngloGold
Ashanti Holdings Finance plc. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of AngloGold Ashanti Limited to
obtain funds from its subsidiaries by dividend or loan.
The convertible bonds mature on May 22, 2014. However, at any time on or after June 12, 2012 the Company
has the right, but not the obligation, to redeem all (but not part) of the convertible bonds at their principal
amount together with accrued interest if the volume weighted average price of the ADSs that would be delivered by the
Company on the conversion of a convertible bond of a principal amount of $100,000 exceeds $130,000 on each of at
least 20 consecutive dealing days ending not earlier than five days prior to the date that the Company gives notice
of the redemption.
Upon the occurrence of a change of control of the Company, each convertible bond holder will have the
right to require the Company to redeem its convertible bonds at their principal amount plus accrued interest thereon.
If the convertible bond holder elects to convert its convertible bonds in connection with such change of control,
the Company will pay a make whole premium to such convertible bond holder in connection with such conversion.
The Company is separately accounting for the conversion features of the convertible bonds at fair value
as a derivative liability with subsequent changes in fair value recorded in earnings each period. The total fair
value of the derivative liability on May 22, 2009 (date of issue) amounted to $142.2 million. The difference between
the initial carrying value and the stated value of the convertible bonds is being accreted to interest expense using
the effective interest method over the 5 year term of the bonds.
The convertible bonds and associated derivative liability (which has been accounted for separately) are
summarized as follows:

Mandatory convertible bonds
In September 2010, the Company issued mandatory convertible
bonds at a coupon rate of 6 percent due in September 2013. The conversion
of the mandatory convertible bonds into ADSs was subject to shareholder
approval, which was granted in October 2010. These bonds are convertible
into a variable number of ADSs, ranging from 18,140,000 at a share price
equal to or lesser than $43.50, to 14,511,937 at a share price equal to or
greater than $54.375, each as calculated in accordance with the formula set
forth in the indenture and subject to adjustment.
The mandatory convertible bonds contain certain embedded
derivatives relating to change in control and anti-dilution protection
provisions. The FASB ASC guidance contains an election for the Company to
record the entire instrument at fair value as opposed to separating the
embedded derivatives from the instrument. The shareholders have authorized
that the convertible bonds will be settled in equity and not have any cash
settlement potential except if a fundamental change or conversion rate
adjustment causes the number of ADSs deliverable upon conversion to exceed
the number of shares reserved for such purpose, among other circumstances
provided in the indenture, and therefore the Company has chosen to
recognize the instrument, in its entirety, at fair value. Depending on the
final calculated share price on the date of conversion, the liability
recognized may differ from the principal amount.
Other convertible bonds that have been issued by the Company
will only be settled in equity if future events, outside of the control of
the Company, result in equity settlement and thus have a potential cash
settlement at maturity that will not exceed the principal amount, in those
circumstances the liabilities are recognized at amortized cost.
In determining the fair value liability of the mandatory
convertible bonds, the Company has measured the effect based on the ex
interest NYSE closing price on the reporting date. The ticker code used by
the NYSE for the mandatory convertible bonds is AUPRA. The accounting
policy of the Company is to recognize interest expense separately from the
fair value adjustments in the income statement. Interest is recognized at a
quarterly coupon rate of 6 percent per annum. Fair value adjustments are
included in Non-hedge derivative loss and movement on bonds in the income
statement refer to Note G.
The contractual principal amount of the mandatory convertible
bonds is $789 million, provided the calculated share price of the Company
is within the range of $43.50 to $54.375. If the calculated share price is
below $43.50, the Company will recognize a gain on the principal amount and
above $54.375 a loss. As at March 31, 2011, the actual share price was
$47.95.
The mandatory convertible bonds were issued by AngloGold
Ashanti Holdings Finance plc, a finance company wholly-owned by AngloGold
Ashanti Limited. AngloGold Ashanti Limited has fully and unconditionally
guaranteed the mandatory subordinated convertible bonds issued by AngloGold
Ashanti Holdings Finance plc. There are no significant restrictions on the
ability of AngloGold Ashanti Limited to obtain funds from its subsidiaries
by dividend or loan.

|
|
The net gain recorded in the three months ended March 31,
2011 relates to the fair value movements of the conversion
features of convertible bonds and the warrants on
shares.
During the latter part of 2010, the Company eliminated its
gold hedge book. The final phase of the hedge restructuring
was funded with proceeds from the equity offering and the
three-year mandatory convertible bonds issued in September
2010, as well as cash from internal sources and debt
facilities.
As a result of the accelerated cash settlement of the
normal purchase and sale exempted (NPSE) contracts during
July 2009, the FASB ASC guidance on derivatives and hedging
necessitated a review of the continuing designation of, and
accounting treatment for, the remaining NPSE contracts that
were not part of the accelerated settlement. Management
concluded, in accordance with the provisions of the FASB
ASC guidance, to re-designate all remaining NPSE contracts
as non-hedge derivatives and to account for such contracts
at fair value on the balance sheet with changes in fair
value accounted for in the income statement.
The effect of the NPSE re-designation in July 2009 and
subsequent accounting for these contracts is stated below.

does not acquire, hold or issue derivatives for speculative purposes.
Contracts that meet the criteria for hedge accounting are designated
as the hedging instruments hedging the variability of forecasted cash
flows from the sale of production into the spot market and from
capital expenditure denominated in a foreign currency and are
classified as cash flow hedges under the FASB ASC guidance on
derivatives and hedging. Cash flows related to these instruments
designated as qualifying hedges are reflected in the consolidated
statement of cash flows in the same category as the cash flow from
the items being hedged. Accordingly, cash flows relating to the
settlement of forward sale commodity derivatives contracts hedging
the forecasted sale of production into the spot market as well as the
forward sale currency derivative contracts hedging the forecasted
capital expenditure, have been reflected upon settlement as a
component of operating cash flows. The ineffective portion of cash
flow hedges recognized in loss on non-hedge derivatives in the income
statement during the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $nil
million. As at March 31, 2011, the Company does not have any open
cash flow hedge contracts relating to product sales or forecasted
capital expenditure. Cash flow hedge losses pertaining to capital
expenditure of $3 million as at March 31, 2011 are expected to be
reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income and
recognized as an adjustment to depreciation expense until 2017.
A gain on non-hedge derivatives of $17 million was recorded in the
three months ended March 31, 2011 (2010: $61 million). See note G
Non-hedge derivative gain and movement on bonds for additional
information.
Gold price management activities
Gold price risk arises from the risk of an adverse effect of current
or future earnings resulting from fluctuations in the price of gold.
The Company historically utilized derivatives as part of its hedging
of the risk. In order to provide financial exposure to the rising
spot price of gold and the potential for enhanced cash-flow
generation the Company completed its final tranche of the hedge
buy-back program during 2010 and settled all forward gold and foreign
exchange contracts that had been used by the Company in the past to
manage those risks. At March 31, 2011, there were no net forward
sales contracts, net call options sold and net put options sold.

Note N. Financial and derivative instruments (continued)
Foreign exchange price risk protection agreements
The Company, from time to time, may enter into currency forward
exchange and currency option contracts to hedge certain anticipated
transactions denominated in foreign currencies. The objective of the
Companys foreign currency hedging activities is to protect the
Company from the risk that the eventual cash flows resulting from
transactions denominated in US dollars will be adversely affected by
changes in exchange rates.
As at March 31, 2011, the Company had no open forward exchange or
currency option contracts in its currency hedge position.
Interest and liquidity risk
Fluctuations in interest rates impacts interest paid and received on
the short-term cash investments and financing activities, giving rise
to interest rate risk.
In the ordinary course of business, the Company receives cash from
the proceeds of its gold sales and is required to fund working
capital requirements. This cash is managed to ensure surplus funds
are invested in a manner to achieve market related returns while
minimizing risks.
The Company is able to actively source financing at competitive
rates. The counterparts are financial and banking institutions and
their credit ratings are regularly monitored by the Company.

Non-performance risk
Realization of contracts is dependent upon
counterparts performance. The Company has not obtained
collateral or other security to support the financial
instruments subject to non-performance risk, but the
credit standing of counterparts was monitored on
regular basis throughout the period. The Company
spreads it business over a number of financial and
banking institutions to minimize the risk of potential
non-performance risk. Furthermore, the approval process
of counterparts and the limits applied to each
counterpart were monitored by the board of directors.
Where possible, ISDA netting agreements were put into
place by management.
The combined maximum credit risk exposure at March 31,
2011 amounts to $3 million. Credit risk exposure netted
by open derivative positions with counterparts was $nil
million as at March 31, 2011. No set-off is applied to
balance sheet amounts due to the different maturity
profiles of assets and liabilities.
The combined maximum credit risk exposure of the
Company as at March 31, 2011 is as follows.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH

Prepared in accordance with US GAAP
Note N. Financial and derivative instruments (continued)
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each
class of financial instrument:
Cash restricted for use, cash and cash equivalents and short-term debt
The carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short-term duration of these
instruments.
Long-term debt
The mandatory convertible bonds are carried at fair value. The fair value of the
convertible and rated bonds are shown at their quoted market value. Other long-term
debt re-prices on a short-term floating rate basis, and accordingly the carrying amount
approximates to fair value.
Derivatives
The fair value of volatility-based instruments (i.e. options) are estimated based on
market prices, volatilities, credit risk and interest rates for the periods under
review.
Investments
Marketable equity securities classified as available-for-sale are carried at fair
value. Marketable debt securities classified as held to maturity are measured at
amortized cost. Non-marketable assets classified as held to maturity are measured at
amortized cost. The fair value of marketable debt securities and non-marketable assets
has been calculated using market interest rates. Investments in non-marketable debt
securities classified as held to maturity are measured at amortized cost. The cost
method investment is carried at cost. There is no active market for the investment and
the fair value cannot be reliably measured.

Note O. Commitments and contingencies (continued)
|
|
|
(1) |
|
Ground water pollution |
|
|
|
|
|
The Company has identified groundwater contamination plumes at |
|
|
certain of its operations, which have occurred primarily as a |
|
|
result of seepage from mine residue stockpiles. Numerous |
|
|
scientific, technical and legal studies have been undertaken to |
|
|
assist in determining the magnitude of the contamination and to |
|
|
find sustainable remediation solutions. The Company has |
|
|
instituted processes to reduce future potential seepage and it has |
|
|
been demonstrated that Monitored Natural Attenuation ("MNA") by |
|
|
the existing environment will contribute to improvement in some |
|
|
instances. Furthermore, literature reviews, field trials and base |
|
|
line modeling techniques suggest, but are not yet proven, that the |
|
|
use of phyto-technologies can address the soil and groundwater |
|
|
contamination. Subject to the completion of trials and the |
|
|
technology being a proven remediation technique, no reliable |
|
|
estimate can be made for the obligation. |
|
|
|
(2) |
|
Deep ground water pollution South Africa |
|
|
|
|
|
The Company has identified a flooding and future pollution risk |
|
|
posed by deep groundwater in the Klerksdorp and Far West Rand gold |
|
|
fields. Various studies have been undertaken by AngloGold Ashanti |
|
|
since 1999. Due to the interconnected nature of mining operations, |
|
|
any proposed solution needs to be a combined one supported by all |
|
|
the mines located in these gold fields. As a result, the |
|
|
Department of Mineral Resources and affected mining companies are |
|
|
involved in the development of a "Regional Mine Closure Strategy". |
|
|
In view of the limitation of current information for the accurate |
|
|
estimation of a liability, no reliable estimate can be made for |
|
|
the obligation. |

Mineração Serra Grande
S.A. (MSG) received two tax assessments |
|
|
|
|
|
|
from the State of Goiás related to payments of sales taxes on gold |
|
|
|
|
|
|
deliveries for export. AngloGold Ashanti Córrego do Sitío |
|

|
Mineração S.A. manages the operation. In November 2006, the |
|
|
|
|
|
|
administrative councils second chamber ruled in favor of MSG and |
|
|
|
|
|
|
fully cancelled the tax liability related to the first period. In |
|
|
|
|
|
|
July 2011, the administrative
councils second chamber ruled in |
|
|
|
|
|
|
favor of MSG and fully cancelled the tax liability related to the |
|
|
|
|
|
|
second period. The State of Goiás has appealed to the full board |
|
|
|
|
|
|
of the State of Goiás tax administrative council. The Company |
|
|
|
|
|
|
believes both assessments are in violation of federal legislation |
|
|
|
|
|
|
on sales taxes. |
|
|
|

ODMWA litigation |
|
|
|
|
|
The case of Mr Thembekile Mankayi was heard in the High Court of South |
|
|
Africa in June 2008, and an appeal heard in the Supreme Court of |
|
|
Appeals in 2010. In both instances judgment was awarded in favor of |
|
|
AngloGold Ashanti Limited. A further appeal that was lodged by Mr |
|
|
Mankayi was heard in the Constitutional Court in 2010. Judgment in the |
|
|
Constitutional Court was handed down on March 3, 2011. |
|
|
|
|
|
Following the judgment, Mr Mankayis executor may proceed with his |
|
|
case in the High Court. This will comprise, amongst others, providing |
|
|
evidence showing that Mr Mankayi contracted silicosis as a result of |
|
|
negligent conduct on the part of AngloGold Ashanti. |
|
|
|
|
|
The Company will defend the case and any subsequent claims on their |
|
|
merits. Should other individuals or groups lodge similar claims, these |
|
|
too would be defended by the Company and adjudicated by the courts on |
|
|
their merits. In view of the limitation of current information for the |
|
|
estimation of a possible liability, no reasonable estimate can be made |
|

for this possible obligation. |

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As a result of the sale of the interest in the Boddington Gold Mine |
|
|
|
|
|
|
during 2009, the Company is entitled to receive a royalty on any gold |
|
|
|
|
|
|
recovered or produced by the Boddington Gold Mine, where the gold |
|
|
|
|
|
|
price is in excess of Boddington Gold Mines cash costs plus $600 per |
|
|
|
|
|
|
ounce. The royalty is payable in each quarter from and after the |
|
|
|
|
|
|
second quarter in 2010, within forty five days of reporting period |
|
|
|
|
|
|
close and is capped at a total amount of $100 million. |

Note P. Recent developments
Announcements made after March 31, 2011:
Restructuring of ESOP and Economic Empowerment Transaction
On April 14, 2011, AngloGold Ashanti Limited, the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM), Solidarity, The Union (UASA),
Izingwe Holdings (Proprietary) Limited and the Bokamoso ESOP Board of Trustees announced the restructuring of the
empowerment transactions concluded respectively between the Company and the unions, and the Company and Izingwe in 2006.
This restructuring was motivated by the fact that share price performance since the onset of the 2008 global financial
crisis led to a situation where the first two tranches of E shares (otherwise known to participants as loan shares), which
operate essentially as share appreciation rights, vested and lapsed at no additional value to Bokamoso ESOP beneficiaries
and Izingwe.
In order to remedy this situation in a manner that would ensure an element of value accruing to participants, though at a
reasonable incremental cost to AngloGold Ashanti shareholders, the scheme will be restructured as follows:
|
|
All lapsed loan shares that vested without value will be reinstated; |
|
|
|
The strike (base) price will be fixed at R320 per share for the Bokamoso ESOP and R330
for Izingwe; |
|
|
|
The notional interest charge will fall away; |
|
|
|
As before, 50 percent of any dividends declared will be used to reduce the strike price; |
|
|
|
As before, the remaining 50 percent is paid directly to participants under the
empowerment transaction; and |
|
|
|
The life span of the scheme will be extended by an additional one year, the last
vesting being in 2014, instead of 2013. A minimum payout on vesting of the E shares has
been set at R40 each and a maximum payout of R70 each per E Share for Izingwe and R90
each for members of the Bokamoso ESOP (i.e. employees), plus the impact of the 50
percent of dividend flow. While the floor price provides certainty to all beneficiaries
of the empowerment transactions, the creation of a ceiling serves to limit the cost to
AngloGold Ashanti and its shareholders. |
The total incremental accounting cost to the Company of this transaction will be approximately $18 million of which $12
million will be recorded in subsequent quarters in 2011.

Dividends are declared in South African cents. Dollar cents per share figures have been calculated based on exchange rates
prevailing on each of the respective payment dates.
In addition to the cash dividend, an amount equal to the dividend paid to holders of E ordinary shares will be offset when
calculating the strike price of E ordinary shares.
Each CDI represents one-fifth of an ordinary share and 100 GhDSs represents one ordinary share. Each ADS represents one ordinary share.

Note R. Fair value measurements
The FASB ASC guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize
the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or
liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or
can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or
liabilities.
Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are
significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The Company utilizes the market approach to measure fair value. The market approach uses prices
and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable
assets or liabilities.
The following table sets out the Companys financial assets and (liabilities) measured at fair
value, by level within the hierarchy as at March 31, 2011 (in US Dollars, millions):

The Companys cash equivalents are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because
they are valued using quoted market prices. The cash instruments that are valued based on quoted
market prices in active markets are primarily money market securities. Due to the short maturity of
cash, carrying amounts approximate fair values.
The Companys marketable equity securities are included in Other long-term assets in the Companys
consolidated balance sheet. They consist of investments in ordinary shares and are valued using
quoted market prices in active markets and as such are classified within Level 1 of the fair value
hierarchy. The fair value of the marketable equity securities is calculated as the quoted market
price of the marketable equity security multiplied by the quantity of shares held by the Company.
The Companys mandatory convertible bonds are included in Long-term debt in the Companys
consolidated balance sheet. The bonds are valued using quoted market prices in an active market and
as such are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the bonds is
calculated as the quoted market price of the bond multiplied by the quantity of bonds issued by the
Company.
Options associated with marketable equity securities and the conversion features of convertible
bonds are included as derivatives on the balance sheet. Such instruments are typically classified
within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The following inputs were used in the valuation of the conversion features of convertible bonds as
at March 31:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2011 |
|
Market quoted bond price (percent) |
|
|
123.25 |
|

|
Fair value of conversion feature (percent) |
|
|
22.02 |
|
Total issued bond value ($ million) |
|
|
732.5 |
|
The option component of the convertible bonds is calculated as the difference between the
price of the bond including the option component (bond price) and the price excluding the option
component (bond floor price).

REVIEW OF FINANCIAL AND OPERATING PERFORMANCE FOR THE THREE MONTHS
ENDED MARCH 31, 2011 PREPARED IN ACCORDANCE WITH US GAAP

dollars, dollar or $ are to the lawful currency of the United States,
references to euro or are to the lawful currency of the member states

Introduction
AngloGold Ashantis operating results are directly related to the
price of gold, which can fluctuate widely and which is affected by
numerous factors beyond AngloGold Ashantis control, including
industrial and jewellery demand, expectations with respect to the rate
of inflation, the strength of the US dollar (the currency in which the
price of gold is generally quoted) and of other currencies, interest
rates, actual or expected gold sales by central banks and the
International Monetary Fund (IMF), global or regional political or
economic events, and production and cost levels in major gold-producing
regions. In addition, the price of gold is often subject to sharp,
short-term changes because of speculative activities. The shift in gold
demand from physical demand to investment and speculative demand may
exacerbate the volatility of gold prices.
The current demand for and supply of gold may affect gold prices, but
not necessarily in the same manner as current supply and demand affect
the prices of other commodities. The supply of gold consists of a
combination of new production and fabricated gold held by governments,
public and private financial institutions, industrial organizations and
private individuals.
As the amounts produced in any single year constitute a very small
portion of the total potential supply of gold, variations in current
production do not necessarily have a significant impact on the supply of
gold or on its price. If revenue from gold sales falls for a substantial
period below the Companys cost of production at its operations,
AngloGold Ashanti could determine that it is not economically feasible
to continue commercial production at any or all of its operations or to
continue the development of some or all of its projects.
Impact of exchange rate fluctuations
During the first three months of 2011 the rand weakened against the
US dollar (based on the exchange rates of R6.57 and R6.77 per US dollar
on January 1, 2011 and March, 31, 2011, respectively). The value of the
rand strengthened by 7 percent against the US dollar when compared to
the average exchange rates of the rand against the US dollar of R6.99
and R7.50 during the first three months of 2011 and 2010, respectively.
The stronger rand against the US dollar negatively impacted on the
dollar denominated costs and therefore on the profitability of AngloGold
Ashanti.
The value of the Australian dollar strengthened by 11 percent against
the US dollar when compared to the average exchange rate of A$0.99 for
the first three months of 2011 against an average exchange rate of
A$1.11 for the same period in 2010. The value of the Brazilian real
strengthened by 7 percent against the US dollar based on the average
exchange rates of BRL1.67 and BRL1.80 per US dollar during the first
three months of 2011 and 2010, respectively. The strengthening of these
local currencies against the US dollar further negatively impacted the
dollar denominated costs and therefore on the profitability of AngloGold
Ashanti.
Restructuring of ESOP and Economic Empowerment Transaction
On April 14, 2011, following the end of the quarter, AngloGold
Ashanti announced the proposed restructuring of its black economic
empowerment transaction, initially entered into in 2006, to ensure the
intended benefits accrue to its recipients, namely its South African
employees, through the Bokamoso ESOP trust and BEE Partner, Izingwe
Holdings.
The total incremental accounting cost to AngloGold Ashanti of the
proposed restructuring as approved by shareholders is approximately $18
million, of which $12 million will be recorded in subsequent quarters in
2011. When implemented, approximately $8 million of the accounting cost
will be recorded during the second quarter 2011, with the balance of $4
million over the third and fourth quarters of 2011. The principal
component of the restructured transaction is the proposed reinstatement
over the next three years of a total of approximately 1.37 million E
Ordinary shares that have either lapsed or are expected to lapse without
realizing the anticipated value for their holders. Also, an additional
48,923 new ordinary shares was allotted to employees who qualify for the
scheme as of the original cut-off date.
Management believes that the restructuring has the potential to enhance
labor relations within AngloGold Ashantis South African operations and,
more broadly, reinforce AngloGold Ashantis reputation as a good
corporate citizen in South Africa, as well as reinforcing the Companys
continued commitment to the spirit of transformation and empowerment as
contained in the Mining Charter.
46
Acquisitions and dispositions
During the quarter ended March 31, 2011, the Company disposed of its
subsidiary ISS International Limited. The sale closed on February 28, 2011 and
the Company realized a profit of $2 million on disposal.
Gold market for the quarter ended March 31, 2011
Gold price movement and investment markets
Gold price data
The gold price traded as low as $1,308 per ounce at the beginning of the
year, as investors moved out of safe-haven holdings into riskier assets, before
recovering steadily to near-record nominal levels. Civil unrest in the Middle
East and North Africa unnerved oil markets and resulted in Brent crude trading
well above $100 per barrel, with the prospects of continued elevated prices
while a speedy resolution of the Libyan conflict looks increasingly unlikely.
The consequences of higher oil prices and concomitant inflationary implications
have raised questions about the sustainability of the nascent global economic
recovery. Widespread civil unrest in the Middle East and North Africa,
continued debt concerns among European Union members and growing uncertainty
over the United States long-term macroeconomic outlook underscored by
Standard & Poors April 18, 2011 downgrade of the outlook on United States debt
to `negative have propelled the gold price to new record nominal levels
above $1,500 per ounce.
Investment demand
Despite the rebound in the gold price from February 2011 onwards, total
exchange traded funds (ETF) investment holdings reflect a net redemption of
1.72 million ounces, or 2.5 percent of the gross holdings over the first
quarter of 2011, relative to the start of the year. Gross holdings at the end
of the first quarter were 66.81 million ounces or $95.3 billion at $1,426 per
ounce. Much of the ETF sell-off in January 2011 was attributed to a rebalancing
of portfolios as investors banked gains resulting from the 30 percent rise in
the gold price in 2010. Global sales of bar and coin in 2010 amounted to some
60 percent of investment demand, while ETFs accounted for 20 percent. It is
also worth noting that the rate of bar and coin outflows in the quarter ended
March 31, 2011 is likely to have been less than ETF sales as coins and bars are
not as easy to sell as ETFs. The COMEX positioning, whilst traditionally more
volatile, also showed a net decrease over the quarter. Having started at 28
million ounces net long, it finished 6 percent lower at 26.3 million ounces net
long. In India, gold medallion and bar sales for the first quarter were higher
than the same period last year. The Indian ETF market continued to grow. During
the first quarter, new gold mutual funds were launched in India to tap mass
market demand for gold ETFs. China experienced another stellar quarter on the
investment front, with an estimated year-on-year increase of some 50 percent.
In the United States, coin and bar demand remained strong, though with no
anecdotal evidence of a repeat in coin minting shortfalls.
Official sector
The World Gold Council released a report during the quarter which confirmed
widespread expectations that the official sector was a net purchaser of gold in
2010. This marks the first time since 1998 that the sector has contributed to
demand, rather than being a significant source of supply. Continuing sovereign
debt concerns in the Eurozone are likely to keep bullion in central banks
vaults, while the trend of emerging nations bolstering gold reserves is also
expected to continue.
Jewellery sales
Indias gold resurgence continued in the first quarter of 2011 as January
and February import figures reflected a 28 percent increase in volume terms
over the same period last year. After a record 2010, consumption still remained
robust at the beginning of the year due to a drop in gold prices and relative
stability during the beginning of the auspicious period. An interesting trend
developed in India, with consumers advancing money to retailers to book prices
when there is a significant drop. As a result of this trend, retailers are
flush with working capital. A further development saw significant demand for
bars and coins, not for investment but to be converted into jewellery during
the marriage season. China experienced its strongest quarter for gold jewellery
demand in five years with an estimated 12 to 15 percent year-on-year increase.
Remarkably, demand remained very strong following the Chinese New Year period
which traditionally sees a dramatic slowdown in demand. Eighteen-carat gold
jewellery once again failed to keep pace with pure gold, but still registered
strong growth of about 8 percent. During the first quarter of 2011, the
beleaguered United States market continued to build upon its improved 2010
fourth-quarter performance. Gold jewellery demand is estimated to have
increased by 4 percent in the first quarter of 2011. The low-end gold market
has been severely damaged by the twin blows of recession and high gold prices,
but the higher-end market continued to grow.

Gold production
For the three months ended March 31, 2011, AngloGold Ashantis total gold
production decreased by approximately 40,000 ounces, or about 4 percent, to
1.04 million ounces from 1.08 million ounces produced in the same period in
2010.
At Sunrise Dam (Australasia), gold production decreased from 114,000 ounces
produced in the three months ended March 31, 2010, to 72,000 ounces produced in
the same period in 2011. The decrease was due to the flood inundation event
during the first quarter of 2011. In one particular instance, over a period of
twenty four hours, more than 150 millimeters of rain fell, resulting in
destructive flash flooding and substantial inflows of water into the open pit
and underground operations.
In Continental Africa, gold production decreased from 374,000 ounces produced
in the three months ended March 31, 2010, to 363,000 ounces produced in the
same period in 2011. The decrease is mainly due to lower grades recovered at
Yatela (Mali) and underground tonnages declining as a result of reduced
flexibility in developed ore reserves at Obuasi (Ghana). The decrease was
partially offset by an increase in production at Geita (Tanzania) due to higher
grades recovered as well as improved throughput at Iduapriem (Ghana) in the
first quarter of 2011 as operations were temporarily suspended in February 2010
following a joint decision with the Ghana Environmental Protection Agency and
the Company to upgrade the existing tailings storage facility.
The decrease in gold production was partially offset by an increase of 17,000
ounces in South Africa from 384,000 ounces produced in the three months ended
March 31, 2010, to 401,000 ounces produced in the same period in 2011. The
increase is mainly due to higher grades at Kopanang and higher grades reclaimed
at the surface operations during the first quarter of 2011. The increase in
gold production was partially offset by the loss of production following the
sale of Tau Lekoa effective August 1, 2010.
Capital expenditures
Total capital expenditure of $249 million was recorded during the three
months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $171 million in the same period in
2010. This represented a $78 million, or 46 percent, increase from the same
period in 2010. Expenditure increased in South Africa from $83 million
in the quarter ended March 31, 2010 to $97 million in the same period in 2011
due to a stronger rand and expenditure on projects at the Moab Khotsong and
Mponeng operations. In the Americas, expenditure increased by $12 million in
Brazil largely due to expenditure incurred at the Córrego do Sítio project at
AngloGold Ashanti Mineração, by $9 million in North America related to the mine
life extension project at Cripple Creek & Victor and by a further $3 million
associated with a heap leach project at Cerro Vanguardia in Argentina. In
Ghana, capital expenditure increased from $19 million incurred in the first
quarter of 2010 to $35 million in 2011, related mainly to the construction of a
tailings storage facility at Iduapriem.

Comparison of financial performance for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010
Revenues
Revenues from product sales and other income increased from $1,111 million in the first
three months of 2010 to $1,435 million in the same period of 2011, representing a
29 percent increase over the period in 2010. This was predominantly due to an increase in
the average spot price of gold from $1,110 per ounce for the three months ended
March 31, 2010, to $1,387 per ounce during the three months ended March 31, 2011. The
majority of product sales consisted of US dollar-denominated gold sales.
Production costs
During the three months ended March 31, 2011, AngloGold Ashanti incurred production costs
of $708 million representing an increase of $108 million from $600 million recorded for
the same period in 2010. The increase was mainly as a result of an increase in operational
costs including labor, consumables, power, services and inventory adjustments. These
increases were due to inflation, annual labor cost increases, increased contractor costs
at Sunrise Dam and power tariff increases mainly in South Africa and Obuasi (Ghana). The
strengthening of local currencies against the US dollar also adversely impacted US dollar
denominated production costs.
Exploration costs
Exploration costs increased from $40 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010 to
$57 million in the same period in 2011 mainly due to an increased level of expenditure at
Mongbwalu in the DRC, La Colosa and Gramalote in Colombia and increased brownfield
exploration activities at operating mines.
General and administrative
General and administrative expenses increased from $40 million in the three months ended
March 31, 2010 to $68 million in the same period in 2011, mainly due to labor costs,
retention and bonus costs and the effects of a stronger rand relative to the US dollar.
Royalties
Royalties paid by AngloGold Ashanti increased from $25 million in the three months ended
March 31, 2010, to $40 million paid in the same period in 2011, mainly as a result of the
introduction in the South African Mineral and Petroleum Resources Act of royalties payable
in South Africa from March 1, 2010 as well as the high spot price of gold. Royalties
recorded by the South African mines were $14 million in the three months ended March 31,
2011 compared to $1 million in the same period in 2010.
Royalties paid were also higher at the Geita mine (Tanzania) and Cerro Vanguardia
(Argentina) as a result of higher spot prices of gold. Royalties are predominantly
calculated based on a percentage of revenues and are payable primarily to local
governments.
50
Depreciation, depletion and amortization
Depreciation, depletion and amortization expense increased by $17 million to
$192 million in the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $175 million
recorded in the same period in 2010, mainly due to changes in life of mine estimates
at the South African mines and an increase in depreciation, depletion and amortization
in Brazil due to the increased production at the Còrrego do Sìtio mine.
Impairment of assets
Impairment charges decreased from $9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010
to $1 million in the same period in 2011. The impairment charge of 2011 relates to the
write-off of capital assets at Savuka mine in South Africa.
Interest expense
Interest expense increased by $16 million to $44 million in the three months ended
March 31, 2011, compared to $28 million recorded in the same period in 2010. The
increase is mainly due to interest charges on the rated and mandatory bonds, which
were issued in April 2010 and September 2010, respectively.
Accretion expense
Accretion expense increased from $5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010
to $7 million in the same period in 2011. Accretion relates to the unwinding of
discounted future reclamation obligations to present values and increases the
reclamation obligations to its future estimated payout.
Employment severance costs
Employment severance costs decreased to $4 million during the three months ended March
31, 2011 from $7 million in the same period in 2010. Employment severance costs
recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2011 relate to retrenchments in the
South Africa region reflecting rationalization of operations at Tau Tona and Mponeng.
Profit/loss on sale of assets, realization of loans, indirect taxes and other
In the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company recorded a profit on sale of
assets, realization of loans, indirect taxes and other of $2 million. The profit
includes royalties received from Newmont Mining Corporation of $6 million (2009 sale
of Boddington Gold mine) and $1 million received from Simmer & Jack Mines Limited
(2010 sale of Tau Lekoa Gold mine) offset by indirect tax expenses and legal claims in
Ghana of $5 million.
In the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company recorded a loss on sale of
assets, realization of loans, indirect taxes and other of $12 million. The loss mainly
related to the impairment of debtors in South Africa of $4 million and the
reassessment of indirect taxes payable in Tanzania and Guinea of $6 million.
51
Non-hedge derivative gain and movement on bonds
Non-hedge derivative gain
A gain on non-hedge derivatives of $17 million was recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2011,
compared to a gain of $61 million in the same period of 2010 relating to the use of non-hedging instruments.
The gain on non-hedge derivatives recorded in the three months ended March 31, 2011 relates to the fair value
gain of the conversion features of convertible bonds and the revaluation of warrants on shares during the
three months ended March 31, 2011. Non-hedge derivatives gain and movement on bonds recorded in the three
months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 included:

Taxation expense
A net taxation expense of $124 million was recorded in the three months ended
March 31, 2011 compared to a net expense of $76 million in the same period in
2010. The higher tax charge for the three months ended March 31, 2011
is mainly due to higher earnings and the reversal of deferred taxation
assets. Deferred tax charges in the three months ended March 31, 2011
amounted to $69 million compared to deferred tax charges of $16 million in the
same period in 2010. The higher deferred taxation in 2011 mainly
relates to the reversal of deferred taxation assets arising from the
utilization of tax losses in South Africa. Charges for current tax in the
three months ended March 31, 2011 amounted to $55 million compared to
$60 million in the same period in 2010. Refer to note H Taxation to the
condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.
Equity income in associates
Equity income in affiliates decreased to $9 million in the three months ended
March 31, 2011 from $25 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010,
mainly due to a decrease in earnings from operations in Mali resulting from
lower revenues and production (at Yatela).
Noncontrolling interests net income
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests decreased from $12 million
in the three months ended March 31, 2010 to $6 million in the three months
ended March 31, 2011, mainly due to decreased revenue at Serra Grande in South
America and Rand Refinery in South Africa.
Net income
Net income of $243 million was recorded during the first three months of 2011
compared to a net income of $181 million during the first three months of 2010,
mainly due to increased revenue from product sales due to a higher spot gold
price. The net income attributable to AngloGold Ashanti (after allowing for
non-controlling interests) amounted to $237 million for the three months to
March 31, 2011 compared to a net income of $169 million for the same period in
2010.
52
Liquidity and capital resources
Net cash provided by operating activities was $503 million in the three months
ended March 31, 2011, an increase of $349 million when compared to net cash
provided by operating activities of $154 million for the comparable period in
2010. This was mainly as a result of increased profitability in the three
months ended March 31, 2011 (relative to the same period in 2010), as a result
of higher realized gold prices and lower payments to suppliers.
Investing activities in the three months ended March 31, 2011 resulted in a net
cash outflow of $269 million compared to a net cash outflow of $116 million in
the three months ended March 31, 2010. Additions to property, plant and
equipment, which included capital expenditure of $234 million compared to
$169 million in the same period in 2010, were recorded in the first three
months of 2011.
Net cash generated by financing activities in the three months ended March
31, 2011 amounted to an outflow of $194 million, which is a decrease of $211
million from an outflow of $405 million in the three months ended March
31, 2010. Cash outflows from repayment of debt of $152 million during the three
months ended March 31, 2011 included principal repayments of $50 million on the
$1.0 billion syndicated loan facility and $99 million on the loan from
FirstRand Bank Limited. Financing activities for non-hedge derivatives maturing
resulted in an outflow of $53 million in the three months ended March 31, 2010.
The Company made dividend payments of $43 million in the three months ended
March 31, 2011.
As a result of the items discussed above, at March 31, 2011 AngloGold Ashanti
had $619 million of cash and cash equivalents compared with $586 million at
December 31, 2010, an increase of $33 million. At March 31, 2011, the Company
had a total of $1.38 billion available but undrawn under its credit facilities.
AngloGold Ashanti is currently involved in a number of capital projects. As at
March 31, 2011, $274 million of AngloGold Ashantis short-term future capital
expenditure had been contracted for and another approximately $2,388 million
(of which approximately $1.8 billion is expected to be contracted within one
year) had been authorized but not yet contracted for, as described in
note O Commitments and contingencies to the condensed consolidated financial
statements. AngloGold Ashanti intends to finance these capital expenditures
from cash on hand, cash flow from operations, existing credit facilities and,
potentially, additional credit facilities or debt instruments.
Cash generated from operations is subject to operational, market and other
risks. Distributions from operations may be subject to foreign investment and
exchange control laws and regulations and the quantity of foreign exchange
available in offshore countries. In addition, distributions from joint ventures
are subject to the relevant board approval.
53
Critical accounting policies
The preparation of AngloGold Ashantis financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the period. For a full discussion of the Companys
critical accounting policies, please see Managements discussion and analysis
of financial condition and results of operations Critical accounting
policies and the consolidated financial statements for the years ended
December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 and as at December 31, 2010 and 2009 and
footnotes thereto included in the Companys Form 20-F for the year ended
December 31, 2010, which was filed with the SEC on May 31, 2011.
Recent accounting pronouncements adopted and issued
For a description of accounting changes and recent accounting pronouncements,
including the expected dates of adoption and estimated effects, if any, on the
Companys financial statements, see notes A Basis of presentation and B
Accounting developments to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
Contractual obligations
In addition to the contractual obligations as disclosed in the Companys Annual
Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2010, during the three
months ended March 31, 2011 the Company repaid and terminated the FirstRand
Bank short-term loan facility ($99 million), repaid drawings under the $1
billion revolving credit facility ($50 million) and made normal scheduled loan
repayments of $3 million.
For a further description and discussion of the Companys outstanding debt as
at March 31, 2011, see note E Debt to the condensed consolidated financial
statements.
As at March 31, 2011, the estimated fair value of derivatives (the conversion
features of convertible bonds) amounted to negative $162 million (at December
31, 2010: negative $176 million).
54
Recent developments
Dr T J Motlatsi (Deputy Chairman) retired from the board of AngloGold Ashanti, effective from February 17, 2011.
The case of Mr Thembekile Mankayi was heard in the High Court of South Africa in June 2008, and an appeal heard
in the Supreme Court of Appeals in 2010. In both instances judgment was awarded in favor of AngloGold Ashanti
Limited. A further appeal that was lodged by Mr Mankayi was heard in the Constitutional Court in 2010. Judgment
in the Constitutional Court was handed down on March 3, 2011.
Following the judgment, Mr Mankayis executor may proceed with his case in the High Court. This will comprise,
amongst others, providing evidence showing that Mr Mankayi contracted silicosis as a result of negligent
conduct on the part of AngloGold Ashanti.
The Company will defend the case and any subsequent claims on their merits. Should other individuals or groups
lodge similar claims, these too would be defended by the Company and adjudicated by the courts on their merits.
In view of the limitation of current information for the estimation of a possible liability, no reasonable
estimate can be made for this possible obligation.
On March 15, 2011, AngloGold Ashanti announced that its Sunrise Dam Gold Mine, situated 56 kilometers south of
Laverton in Western Australia, had been impacted by unprecedented heavy rains over the prior month. First
quarter production from Australia of 72,000 ounces was negatively impacted by approximately 20,000 ounces with
a consequential impact on total cash costs.
On July 22, 2011, AngloGold Ashanti announced that it had entered into an agreement to acquire 47,065,916
shares (or approximately 19.79 percent) in First Uranium Corporation (First Uranium), a Canadian incorporated
company, from Village Main Reef Limited (Village), a South African incorporated company, at a price of CAD0.60
per share. In addition, Village have granted to AngloGold Ashanti, lock-up rights and rights of first refusal
for its remaining approximate 5.7 percent stake in First Uranium and its holding of approximately
R392.8 million convertible bonds issued by First Uranium.
