Trading Statement
Randgold is expecting a decrease of between 35% and 55% in earnings per share
and a decrease of between 110% and 130% in headline earnings per share for the
interim period ended 30 June 2004 (`the interim results`) compared to that of
the last comparative period. This is mainly attributable to the foreign exchange
loss arising from Randgold Resources (Holdings) Limited now being classified as
a foreign operation, and a decrease in equity income from Randgold Resources
Limited.
The information in this trading statement has not been reviewed or reported on
by Randgold`s auditors. The release of the interim results announcement is
expected to be published on or about 17 September 2004.
