6. Special items and remeasurements
`Special items` are those items of financial performance that the Group
believes should be separately disclosed on the face of the income statement to
assist in the understanding of the underlying financial performance achieved by
the Group and its businesses. Such items are material by nature or amount to
the year`s results and require separate disclosure in accordance with IAS 1
Presentation of financial statements paragraph 86. Special items that relate to
the operating performance of the business are classified as special operating
items and include impairment charges and reversals and other exceptional items,
including significant legal provisions. Non-operating special items include
profits and losses on disposals of investments and businesses.
Remeasurements comprise other items which the Group believes should be reported
separately to aid an understanding of the underlying performance of the Group.
This category includes (i) unrealised gains and losses on `non-hedge`
derivative instruments open at year end and the reversal of the historical
marked-to-market value of the instruments settled in the year, such that the
full realised gain or loss is recorded in underlying earnings in the same year
as the underlying transaction for which such instruments provide an economic,
but not formally designated, hedge and (ii) foreign exchange gains and losses
arising on the retranslation of dollar denominated De Beers` preference shares
held by a rand functional currency subsidiary of the Group. Remeasurements are
defined as operating, non-operating or financing according to the nature of the
underlying expense.

Special items and remeasurements
Operating special items of $524 million (2005: $186 million) relate principally
to impairment, restructuring and closure costs.
Following the conclusion of its strategic review, Industrial Minerals has
identified certain non-core assets which are to be sold and other assets which
are to be restructured and, as such, Tarmac has recorded a combined impairment
and restructuring charge of $278 million.
On 18 May 2006 the Group announced that due to ongoing geological difficulties,
Anglo Coal intends to implement a phased reduction of operations at Dartbrook.
As such an impairment charge and closure costs of $125 million have been
recognised.
Paper and Packaging have recorded an additional impairment of $80 million
mainly of certain downstream fixed packaging assets as a result of continued
challenging market conditions and $24 million at Mondi Business Paper of fixed
assets at the Austrian businesses.
The impairment of Tarmac assets brings the carrying value in line with fair
value (less costs to sell). Fair value was determined using detailed cash flow
models.
The impairment of Dartbrook and Paper and Packaging assets were based on
`value-in-use` assessments of recoverable amount using a pre-tax, risk free
discount rate which equated to a post tax rate of 6%.
Unrealised net losses of $344 million (2005: $301 million) on non-hedge
derivatives have been included in operating remeasurements. These unrealised
losses were recorded principally at AngloGold Ashanti, during the period it was
held as a subsidiary prior to 20 April 2006 and relate to fair value movements
on commodity derivatives.
6. Special items and remeasurements (continued)
Associates` special items and remeasurements
Associates` operating special items and remeasurements include $25 million for
the Group`s share of De Beers` payment in respect of class action suits ($20
million) and related legal costs ($5 million). Agreement has been reached, and
a preliminary order issued, to settle the majority of civil class action suits
filed against De Beers in the United States. This settlement does not involve
any admission of liability on the part of De Beers and will, when concluded,
bring to an end a number of outstanding class actions. In 2005, De Beers paid
$250 million ($113 million attributable share) into escrow and an additional
$45 million ($20 million attributable share) has been paid by De Beers into
escrow pending conclusion of the settlement process.
The Group`s share of unrealised net losses on non-hedge derivatives of
AngloGold Ashanti incurred during the period of ownership as an associate
partially offset by gains at De Beers, totalled $85 million.
Financing remeasurements
The option element of AngloGold Ashanti`s convertible bond is recorded at fair
value with changes going through the income statement in accordance with IAS 32
Financial Instruments: Disclosure and Presentation and IAS 39 Financial
Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. As a result, a charge of $43 million
(2005: $32 million) has been included in financing remeasurements, relating to
the period it was held as a subsidiary.
The Group holds US dollar preference shares issued by De Beers which are held
in a rand functional currency subsidiary of the Group. These shares are
classified as `non-current investments` and are retranslated at each period
end. As a result, a gain of $40 million (2005: $72 million) has been included
in financing remeasurements.
Associates` financing remeasurements
The Group`s share of the associates` financing remeasurements includes a share
of the fair value movement of the option element of the AngloGold Ashanti
convertible bond which generated a gain of $25 million during the period that
this investment was recorded as an associate, and a share of the net unrealised
gains on non-hedge financing derivatives of $1 million in De Beers.
Profits and losses on disposals
On 20 April 2006 the Group completed the sale of 19.7 million ordinary shares
held in AngloGold Ashanti for cash of $978 million. This, together with the
Group`s non-participation in the issue of additional ordinary shares throughout
the year by AngloGold Ashanti, diluted the Group`s percentage investment from
50.9% to 41.7%. As such the Group has recorded a profit on disposal of $737
million in respect of shares sold and a profit on the deemed disposal of $172
million, arising from the non-participation in the issue of ordinary shares by
AngloGold Ashanti.
On 14 July 2006, the Group announced the sale of Anglo American`s 79% stake in
Highveld Steel and Vanadium Corporation Limited to Evraz Group SA and Credit
Suisse for a total consideration of $678 million. An initial 49.8% was sold for
$412 million, with Evraz Group SA and Credit Suisse each acquiring a 24.9%
holding. Evraz Group SA has an option to acquire Anglo American`s remaining
29.2% in Highveld for $266 million. Anglo American and Credit Suisse have
agreed that Anglo American will retain the voting rights in respect of the
shares acquired by Credit Suisse until such time as Anglo American disposes of
all of its shares in Highveld Steel and Vanadium Corporation. As a result, the
Group continues to consolidate Highveld Steel and Vanadium Corporation (while
recording an increase in minority interest) and has recorded a profit on the
disposal of $301 million.
On 28 November 2006 the Kumba Resources BEE transaction was effected. Kumba
Iron Ore was accordingly unbundled from Kumba Resources, with the remainder of
the entity being renamed Exxaro. The Group disposed of part of its investment
in Exxaro through a share buyback and sale of shares and recorded a loss on
disposal of $52 million.
Platinum has recorded a loss of $84 million on the conclusion of the BEE
transaction with the Bakgatla-Ba-Kgafela traditional community, announced on 8
November 2006, in which the Bakgatla has acquired a 15% interest in Anglo
Platinum`s Rustenburg Platinum Mines` Union section mining and concentrating
business and interests in the prospecting rights of the Rooderand 46 JQ,
portion 2 and Magazynskraal 3 JQ properties.
6. Special items and remeasurements (continued)
Associates` profits and losses on disposals
In April 2006, De Beers announced that agreements had been signed in respect of
the implementation of the De Beers` BEE transaction resulting in the sale of an
indirect 26% equity interest in De Beers Consolidated Mines Limited to Ponahalo
Holdings (Proprietary) Limited. The total agreed proceeds for the transaction
were $585 million. The Group`s share of the profit realised on the transaction
was $103 million.
De Beers Canada disposed of its interest in the Fort a la Corne joint venture
for C$180 million in September 2006.
A profit of $155 million (attributable share $69 million) was generated on the
disposal.
7. Net finance costs
Finance costs and exchange gains/(losses) are presented net of effective cash
flow hedges for respective interest bearing and foreign currency borrowings.
Fair value gains/(losses) on derivatives, presented below, include the
mark-to-market value changes of interest rate and currency derivatives
designated as fair value hedges, net of fair value changes in the associated
hedged risk; and fair value changes of non-hedge derivatives of non-operating
items.

b) Factors affecting tax charge for the year
The effective tax rate for the year of 27.6% (2005: 24.5%) is lower than the
standard rate of corporation tax in the United Kingdom (30%). The differences
are explained below:

(1) The 2005 comparative figures have been reclassified to align with
current year presentation.
IAS 1 requires income from associates to be presented net of tax on the face of
the income statement. The associates` tax is therefore not included within the
Group`s total tax charge. Associates` tax included within `Share of net income
from associates` for the year ended 31 December 2006 is $368 million ($369
million excluding special items and remeasurements) (2005: $274 million; $281
million excluding special items and remeasurements).
The effective rate of taxation before special items and remeasurements
including share of associates` tax before special items and remeasurements was
32.7%. This was an increase from the equivalent effective rate of 26.5% in
the year ended 31 December 2005. The December 2005 tax rate benefited from the
one-off impact of a reduction in the statutory tax rates in South Africa and
Ghana. Without this one-off benefit the effective tax rate for the prior year
would have been 29.7%. In future periods it is expected that the effective tax
rate, including associates` tax, will remain at or above the UK statutory tax
rate of 30%.
9. Earnings per share

shareholders
Basic earnings per share 4.21 2.43
Diluted earnings per share 4.12 2.36

Diluted earnings per share 3.50 2.36
Underlying earnings for the financial year(1):
Basic earnings per share 3.73 2.58
Diluted earnings per share 3.64 2.50
(1) Basic and diluted earnings per share are shown based on headline earnings,
which is a Johannesburg Stock Exchange Limited defined measure and underlying
earnings, which the directors believe to be useful additional measures of the
Group`s performance. Both earnings measures are further explained below.
The calculation of the basic and diluted earnings per share is based on
the following data:

(1) Basic and diluted number of ordinary shares outstanding represent the
weighted average for the year. The average number of ordinary shares in issue
excludes the shares held by the employee benefit trust, Epoch and Tarl.
(2) Diluted earnings per share is calculated by adjusting the weighted average
number of ordinary shares in issue on the assumption of conversion of all
potentially dilutive ordinary shares.
`Underlying earnings` is an alternative earnings measure, which the directors
believe provides a clearer picture of the underlying financial performance of
the Group`s operations. Underlying earnings is presented after minority
interest and excludes special items and remeasurements (see note 6). Underlying
earnings is distinct from `Headline earnings`, which is a Johannesburg Stock
Exchange Limited (JSE Limited) defined performance measure.
9. Earnings per share (continued)
