Statement by Nick Holland,
Chief Executive Officer of Gold Fields

Q1 2015 – a weaker quarter as
planned

In-line with and incorporated into our
guidance for 2015, Gold Fields had a weaker
Q1 2015, due to the seasonal weakness in
South Africa due to the Christmas break and
mine scheduling at the other operations.
Attributable gold equivalent production
decreased by 10 per cent quarter on quarter
to 501,000 ounces. There was a concomitant
increase in unit costs, despite overall costs
being well contained. Net operating costs
decreased by 10 per cent quarter on quarter
to US$366 million. All-in sustaining costs
(AISC) increased by 12 per cent quarter on
quarter to US$1,143/oz and all-in costs (AIC)
were 11 per cent higher at US$1,164/oz. In
addition to lower gold sold, unit costs were
negatively impacted by the gold inventory
charge to cost, lower by-product credits and
higher sustaining capital expenditure.

Consequently, we report a normalised loss of
US$13 million, compared to normalised
earnings of US$17 million in the December
2014 quarter. The loss included a negative
deferred tax adjustment of US$21 million to
account for exchange rate changes. Cash
outflow from operating activities less net
capital expenditure and environmental
payments amounted to US$29 million in the
March 2015 quarter compared with an inflow
of US$54 million in the December 2014
quarter. The FCF margin of negative 3 per
cent in the March quarter compared with
positive 9 per cent in the December quarter,
mainly due to lower gold sold and higher
seasonal taxation paid in Ghana and
Australia.

FY15 outlook maintained
Despite the seasonally weaker results for Q1,
previously published guidance for 2015, of
attributable gold equivalent production of 2.2
million ounces at AISC of US$1,055/oz and AIC
of US$1,075/oz, remains intact.

SOUTH AFRICA

Regrettably, we had a fatal accident at South
Deep on 8 March. Our sincere condolences go
out to the family, friends and colleagues of Mr
Kennedy Katongo, who tragically lost his life in
an engineering related accident.

During the March quarter, gold production at
South Deep decreased by 25 per cent quarter
on quarter to 1,129 kilograms (36,300 ounces),
mainly due to the extended Christmas break as
well as the previously flagged knock-on effects
of the four-month safety-related closure in the
second half of 2014. The work to 'get the
basics right', which we reported on previously,
is ongoing and good progress is being made on
recruiting additional skills at the mine. These
interventions are expected to gain traction
progressively through the remainder of the year
and, together with the ground-breaking three-
year wage deal signed post the end of the
quarter (discussed below), is expected to
contribute to a stronger performance during the
second half of the year. In addition, we have
implemented significant initiatives to improve
the culture of safety and productivity, the
benefits of which are only likely to be realised in
the medium term.

WEST AFRICA

Attributable gold production at the West African operations decreased
by 3 per cent quarter on quarter to 157,300 ounces. The decrease in
production at Damang was partially offset by the increase in
production at Tarkwa. AIC increased by 15 per cent quarter on
quarter to US$1,299/oz, mainly due to higher capital expenditure
related to a large fleet replacement at Tarkwa partially offset by lower
operating costs and an inventory credit to costs.

PERU

Attributable equivalent gold production at Cerro Corona decreased by
21 per cent to 66,300 ounces, mainly due to lower gold and copper
head grades treated, in line with the mine sequencing and the
production plan for the March quarter. AIC decreased by 2 per cent
quarter on quarter to US$671eq/oz on the back of lower gold sold and
lower by-product credits, partially offset by lower operating costs, an
inventory credit to costs and lower capital expenditure.

AUSTRALIA

Gold production at the Australian operations decreased by 7 per cent
quarter on quarter to 241,400 ounces, with lower production at all the
operations except St Ives. AIC increased by 14 per cent quarter on
quarter to A$1,240/oz (US$978/oz) mainly due to lower gold sold and
the gold inventory charge to cost, partially offset by the lower
operating costs and lower capital expenditure.

Marginal increase in net debt

Mainly as a result of the decrease in cash inflow from operating
activities from US$225 million in the December 2014 quarter to
US$150 million in the March 2015 quarter, net debt increased by
US$46 million from US$1,453 million at the end of December 2014 to
US$1,499 million at the end of March 2015. Net debt/EBITDA at the
end of the March 2015 quarter was 1.41x, compared to 1.30x at the
end of December 2014. We maintain our target of reducing the net
debt/EBITDA ratio to 1.0x by the end of 2016.

South Deep wage deal signed post quarter-end

On 10 April 2015, we signed a three-year wage and other conditions
of employment agreement with the registered trade unions at our
South Deep mine. The agreement is expected to result in average
annual wage increases of 10 per cent over the three-year period of
the deal, with the first increase effective on 1 April 2015.

The negotiations took place at a company-level in recognition of
South Deep's significantly different operating model and labour profile
to that of the other gold mining companies in South Africa.
Specifically, South Deep is the only fully mechanised gold mine in
South Africa. This ground-breaking deal will contribute to a more
stable operating environment for South Deep over the next three
years and position the mine more competitively to attract and retain
the scarce mechanised mining skills required for it to achieve its full
potential. We thank our union partners for the constructive
engagement and look forward to working together to deliver South
Deep.

Results for the Group
SAFETY

The Group's fatality injury frequency rate regressed from 0.00 in
the December quarter to 0.08 in the March quarter as a result of a
mechanical related fatal accident at South Deep on 8 March. The
total recordable injury frequency rate (TRIFR)1 for the Group in the
March quarter was 4.04 compared with 4.90 in the December
quarter.

1   Total Recordable Injury Frequency rate (TRIFR) Group safety metric was introduced in the
    December quarter. (TRIFR) = (Fatalities + Lost Time Injuries2 + Restricted Work Injuries3 +
    Medically Treated Injuries4) x 1,000,000/number of man-hours worked.

2   A Lost Time Injury (LTI) is a work-related injury resulting in the employee or contractor being
    unable to attend work for a period of one or more days after the day of the injury. The
    employee or contractor is unable to perform any functions.

3   A Restricted Work Injury (RWI) is a work-related injury sustained by an employee or contractor
    which results in the employee or contractor being unable to perform one or more of their
    routine functions for a full working day, from the day after the injury occurred. The employee or
    contractor can still perform some of his duties.

4   A Medically Treated Injury (MTI) is a work-related injury sustained by an employee or
    contractor which does not incapacitate that employee and who, after having received medical
    treatment, is deemed fit to immediately resume his/her normal duties on the next calendar
    day, immediately following the treatment/re-treatment.

quarter ended 31 December 2014

REVENUE

Attributable equivalent gold production decreased by 10 per cent
from 556,000 ounces in the December quarter to 501,300 ounces
in the March quarter. This decrease was mainly due to scheduled
lower production at most of the operations and factored into the
production guidance for the full year.

Gold production at South Deep in South Africa, decreased by 25
per cent from 1,508 kilograms (48,500 ounces) to 1,129 kilograms
(36,300 ounces), significantly influenced by the traditional
Christmas shut down.

Attributable gold production at the West African operations
decreased by 3 per cent from 162,800 ounces in the December
quarter to 157,300 ounces in the March quarter. Attributable
equivalent gold production at Cerro Corona in Peru decreased by
21 per cent from 84,100 ounces in the December quarter to
66,300 ounces in the March quarter. Gold production at the
Australian operations decreased by 7 per cent from 260,200
ounces in the December quarter to 241,400 ounces in the March
quarter mainly due to lower production at all the operations except
at St Ives.

At the South Africa region, production at South Deep decreased
by 25 per cent from 1,508 kilograms (48,500 ounces) in the
December quarter to 1,129 kilograms (36,300 ounces) in the
March quarter mainly due to the traditional annual Christmas
break.

At the West Africa region, managed gold production at Tarkwa
increased by 2 per cent from 133,100 ounces in the December
quarter to 135,800 ounces in the March quarter mainly due to
higher grade mined and processed. At Damang, managed gold
production decreased by 18 per cent from 47,800 ounces in the
December quarter to 39,000 ounces in the March quarter mainly
due to lower tonnes processed and lower grade, related to the
mining profile as scheduled.

At the South America region, total managed gold equivalent
production at Cerro Corona decreased by 21 per cent from 84,600
ounces in the December quarter to 66,600 ounces in the March
quarter. This decrease was in line with the mining schedule and
mainly due to lower gold and copper head grades treated.

At the Australia region, St Ives' gold production increased by 6 per
cent from 93,000 ounces in the December quarter to 98,700
ounces in the March quarter mainly due to higher throughput
partially offset by lower grade. At Agnew/Lawlers, gold production
decreased by 19 per cent from 73,200 ounces in the December
quarter to 59,600 ounces in the March quarter mainly due to a
scheduled decrease in tonnes processed as well as lower yield.
At Darlot, gold production decreased by 28 per cent from 15,500
ounces in the December quarter to 11,200 ounces in the March
quarter mainly due to lower tonnes processed at lower grade. At
Granny Smith, gold production decreased by 8 per cent from
78,500 ounces in the December quarter to 72,000 ounces in the
March quarter due to scheduled lower volumes and grade mined.

The average quarterly US dollar gold price achieved by the Group
increased by 2 per cent from US$1,179 per equivalent ounce in
the December quarter to US$1,198 per equivalent ounce in the
March quarter. The average rand gold price increased by 6 per
cent from R432,290 per kilogram to R457,031 per kilogram. The
average Australian dollar gold price increased by 9 per cent from
A$1,417 per ounce to A$1,550 per ounce. The average US dollar
gold price for the Ghanaian operations increased by 1 per cent
from US$1,203 per ounce in the December quarter to US$1,218
per ounce in the March quarter. The average US dollar gold price,
net of treatment and refining charges, for Cerro Corona decreased
by 2 per cent from US$1,046 per equivalent ounce in the
December quarter to US$1,021 per equivalent ounce in the March
quarter. The average US dollar/Rand exchange rate weakened by
5 per cent from R11.18 in the December quarter to R11.71 in the
March quarter. The average Australian/US dollar exchange rate
weakened by 8 per cent from A$1.00 = US$0.86 to A$1.00 =
US$0.79.

Revenue decreased by 14 per cent from US$708 million in the
December quarter US$610 million in the March quarter due to
lower gold sold, partially offset by the higher gold price achieved.
Equivalent gold sold decreased by 15 per cent from 600,500
ounces in the December quarter to 508,900 ounces in the March
quarter. This was mainly due to 54,500 less equivalent ounces
sold at Cerro Corona in the March quarter compared with the
December quarter, as a result of delays in the shipping schedule
at the Salaverry port in Peru in the March quarter.

OPERATING COSTS

Net operating costs decreased by 10 per cent from US$405
million in the December quarter to US$366 million in the March
quarter mainly due to the lower production.

At the South Africa region, net operating costs at South Deep
increased by 3 per cent from R618 million (US$55 million) in the
December quarter to R634 million (US$54 million) in the March
quarter. This was mainly due to planned annual wage increases
for senior officials effective 1 January 2015, as well as increased
overtime worked during the Christmas break.

At the West Africa region, net operating costs decreased by 8 per
cent from US$136 million in the December quarter to US$125
million in the March quarter. This decrease in net operating costs
was mainly due to efficient cost control at both operations as well
as lower tonnes treated at Damang. Tarkwa had a larger build-up
of inventory in the March quarter compared with the December
quarter, while Damang had a build-up of inventory in the March
quarter compared with a drawdown in the December quarter.

At the South America region, net operating costs at Cerro Corona
decreased by 51 per cent from US$57 million in the December
quarter to US$28 million in the March quarter mainly due to a
US$5 million build-up of concentrate at the end of the March
quarter compared with a US$13 million drawdown at the end of
the December quarter as well as lower tonnes processed and the
lower diesel price.

At the Australia region, net operating costs increased by 9 per
cent from A$184 million (US$157 million) in the December quarter
to A$200 million (US$158 million) in the March quarter. This was
mainly due to the drawdown of gold-in-process at St Ives of A$18
million (US$14 million) in the March quarter compared with a
build-up of A$22 million (US$20 million) in the December quarter
and a drawdown at Granny Smith of A$6 million (US$4 million) in
the March quarter compared with a build-up of A$2 million (US$2
million) in the December quarter.

OPERATING PROFIT

Operating profit for the Group decreased by 20 per cent from
US$303 million in the December quarter to US$244 million in the
March quarter due to the decrease in revenue, partially offset by
the lower net operating costs.

AMORTISATION

Amortisation for the Group decreased by 18 per cent from
US$172 million in the December quarter to US$141 million in the
March quarter. This was mainly at St Ives due to lower
amortisation at the Neptune open pit in the March quarter as well
as at Agnew/Lawlers and Granny Smith due to the lower
production.

OTHER

Net interest paid for the Group decreased marginally from US$20
million in the December quarter to US$19 million in the March
quarter. Interest paid of US$26 million was partially offset by
interest received of US$2 million and interest capitalised of US$5
million in the March quarter. This compared with interest paid of
US$27 million, partially offset by interest received of US$1 million
and interest capitalised of US$6 million in the December quarter.

The share of equity accounted losses after taxation for the Group
of US$3 million in the March quarter compared with earnings of
US$1 million in the December quarter. This mainly related to the
Groups' share of losses at Hummingbird of US$2 million and the
ongoing study and evaluation costs of US$1 million at the Far
Southeast project (FSE).

The gain on foreign exchange of US$2 million in the March
quarter compared with US$1 million in the December quarter.
These gains on foreign exchange related to the conversion of
offshore cash holdings into their functional currencies.

The loss on financial instruments of US$3 million in the March
quarter compared with US$11 million in the December quarter and
related to the mark to market adjustment on the diesel hedges that
the Australian operations entered into on 10 September 2014 and
26 November 2014.

Share-based payments for the Group decreased from US$4
million in the December quarter to US$3 million in the March
quarter. Long-term employee benefits increased from US$2
million in the December quarter to US$3 million in the March
quarter. Together, the two schemes were similar at US$6 million.

Other costs for the Group decreased from US$16 million in the
December quarter to US$10 million in the March quarter.

EXPLORATION AND PROJECT COSTS

Exploration and project costs increased from US$12 million in the
December quarter to US$13 million in the March quarter mainly
due to higher expenditure at Salares Norte and the accelerated
write-off of brownfields exploration costs at the Australian
operations.

NON-RECURRING ITEMS

Non-recurring expenses decreased from US$50 million in the
December quarter to US$nil in the March quarter.

The non-recurring expenses in the December quarter included:

-   An increase in rehabilitation costs in respect of previously
    retired assets due to an update of estimates of A$11 million
    (US$10 million) at Agnew and A$11 million (US$10 million) at
    St Ives;
-   Scrapping of redundant trackless equipment at South Deep
    (R91 million/US$8 million);
-   Impairment of various investments of US$11 million including:
    Rand Refinery loan (US$3 million/R32 million), Rand Refinery
    investment (US$1 million/R13 million), APP (US$3 million),
    Bezant (US$2 million) and Aurigin (US$2 million);
-   Retrenchment costs across the Group of US$6 million
    including US$2 million at South Deep and US$3 million at
    Tarkwa and Damang;
-   Scrapping of assets at Agnew (A$3 million/US$3 million) and
    St Ives (A$1 million/US$1 million); and
-   Loss on sale of an excavator at Tarkwa (US$3 million).

This was partially offset by the profit on the sale of Robust
Resources of US$2 million.

ROYALTIES

Government royalties for the Group decreased from US$21 million
in the December quarter to US$18 million in the March quarter
due to the lower revenue and, in certain cases, on the profit on
which it is calculated.

TAXATION

The taxation charge for the Group of US$44 million in the March
quarter compared with US$22 million in the December quarter.
Normal taxation decreased from US$46 million to US$27 million.
The deferred tax charge of US$18 million in the March quarter
compared with a credit of US$24 million in the December quarter.
The charge in the March quarter is explained in the paragraph
below.

The tax returns for Cerro Corona are filed in Peruvian Nuevo Sol
(Soles) and the functional currency for accounting purposes is the
US dollar. For accounting purposes the tax base must be
converted from Soles to dollars at the closing rate at quarter end.
Therefore, the unutilised taxation allowances fluctuate due to
movements in the exchange rate between the Peruvian Nuevo Sol
and the US dollar. This resulted in a change in the temporary
taxation differences for non-monetary assets on translation. This,
in turn, resulted in a deferred tax charge of US$21 million arising
from the weakening of the exchange rate from 2.84 to 3.09. It has
no cash effect.

EARNINGS

Net loss attributable to owners of the parent of US$14 million or
US$0.02 per share in the March quarter compared with US$26
million or US$0.03 per share in the December quarter.

Headline losses of US$14 million or US$0.02 per share in the
March quarter compared with US$10 million or US$0.01 per share
in the December quarter.

Normalised losses of US$13 million or US$0.02 per share in the
March quarter compared with normalised earnings of US$17
million or US$0.02 per share in the December quarter.

CASH FLOW

Cash inflow from operating activities of US$150 million in the
March quarter compared with US$225 million in the December
quarter, mainly due to lower operating profit, a smaller release of
working capital and higher seasonal taxation paid in Ghana and
Australia.

Dividends paid to owners of the parent of US$13 million in the
March quarter compared with US$nil in the December quarter and
related to the 2014 final dividend of 20 SA cents paid in February
2015.

Cash outflow from investing activities increased from US$169
million in the December quarter to US$179 million in the March
quarter. This was mainly due to an increase in capital expenditure
as planned from US$170 million in the December quarter to
US$175 million in the March quarter as well as increased
environmental payments from US$2 million to US$6 million.

Cash outflow from operating activities less net capital expenditure
and environmental payments amounted to US$29 million in the
March quarter compared with a cash inflow of US$54 million in the
December quarter. The decrease was due to the scheduled lower
gold production in the March quarter. The US$29 million in the
March quarter comprised: US$4 million loss by the eight mining
operations, US$20 million of interest paid, US$6 million for
exploration mainly at Salares Norte (this excludes any mine based
brownfields exploration which is included in the loss incurred by
the mining operations above) and US$1 million on non-mine
based income. The US$54 million in the December quarter
comprised: US$83 million generated by the eight mining
operations, less US$20 million of interest paid (this excludes any
interest paid by the mines), US$7 million for exploration (this
excludes any mine based brownfields exploration which is
included in the US$83 million above) and US$2 million on non-
mine based costs.

In the South Africa region at South Deep, capital expenditure
decreased from R328 million (US$30 million) in the December
quarter to R219 million (US$19 million) in the March quarter. The
majority of this expenditure was on new fleet purchases and
development and infrastructure costs.

At the West Africa region, capital expenditure increased from
US$53 million to US$89 million. At Tarkwa, capital expenditure
increased from US$52 million to US$85 million with expenditure
mainly incurred on pre-stripping and mining fleet. Mining fleet
expenditure comprised replacement trucks of US$46 million.
Capital expenditure at Damang increased from US$2 million to
US$4 million with the majority of the expenditure on the
processing plant upgrade and heavy vehicle equipment.

In the South America region at Cerro Corona, capital expenditure
decreased from US$12 million to US$7 million. The majority of
the expenditure was on the construction of the tailings dam.

At the Australia region, capital expenditure decreased from A$86
million (US$74 million) in the December quarter to A$77 million
(US$61 million) in the March quarter. At St Ives, capital
expenditure increased from A$28 million (US$24 million) in the
December quarter to A$32 million (US$25 million) in the March
quarter, with expenditure mainly on pre-stripping of the Invincible
open pit. At Agnew/Lawlers, capital expenditure decreased from
A$27 million (US$23 million) to A$20 million (US$16 million)
mainly due to completion of key capital works in the December
quarter. At Darlot, capital expenditure increased from A$4 million
(US$3 million) to A$5 million (US$4 million) and at Granny Smith,
capital expenditure decreased from A$27 million (US$24 million)
in the December quarter to A$20 million (US$16 million) in the
March quarter mainly due to lower expenditure at the plant.

Net cash outflow from financing activities of US$8 million in the
March quarter compared with US$28 million in the December
quarter and related to net loans raised and paid. The outflow in
the March quarter related to the repayment of rand borrowings of
R2,504 million (US$215 million), partially offset by a drawdown of
offshore dollar loans of US$207 million used to pay down the rand
borrowings.

The net cash outflow for the Group of US$50 million in the March
quarter compared with an inflow of US$28 million in the December
quarter. After accounting for a negative translation adjustment of
US$6 million on non-US dollar cash balances, the cash outflow for
the March quarter was US$56 million. As a result, the cash
balance decreased from US$458 million at the end of December
to US$402 million at the end of March.

ALL-IN SUSTAINING AND TOTAL ALL-IN COST

The World Gold Council has worked closely with its member
companies to develop definitions for "all-in sustaining costs" and
"total all-in cost". These non-GAAP measures are intended to
provide further transparency into the costs associated with
producing and selling an ounce of gold. The new standard was
released by the World Gold Council on 27 June 2013. It is
expected that these new metrics will be helpful to investors,
governments, local communities and other stakeholders in
understanding the economics of gold mining. The "all-in
sustaining costs" incorporate costs related to sustaining current
production. The "total all-in cost" includes additional costs which
relate to the growth of the Group.

Gold Fields adopted and implemented these metrics as from the
June 2013 quarter. All-in sustaining costs and total all-in cost are
reported on a per ounce basis – refer to the detailed tables on
page 22 to page 23 of this report.

The Group all-in sustaining costs increased by 12 per cent as
scheduled from US$1,023 per ounce in the December quarter to
US$1,143 per ounce in the March quarter mainly due to the lower
gold sold, the gold inventory charge to cost, lower by-product
credits and higher sustaining capital expenditure as anticipated.
Total all-in cost increased by 11 per cent as scheduled from
US$1,047 per ounce in the December quarter to US$1,164 per
ounce in the March quarter for the same reasons as all-in
sustaining costs partially offset by lower non-sustaining capital
expenditure.

In the South Africa region, at South Deep, all-in sustaining costs
increased by 23 per cent from R589,565 per kilogram (US$1,640
per ounce) to R726,648 per kilogram (US$1,929 per ounce) due
to the lower gold sold, partially offset by lower sustaining capital
expenditure. The total all-in cost increased by 20 per cent from
R642,948 per kilogram (US$1,789 per ounce) to R774,335 per
kilogram (US$2,055 per ounce) due to the same reasons as for
all-in sustaining costs partially offset by lower non-sustaining
capital expenditure.

At the West Africa region, all-in sustaining costs and total all-in
cost increased by 15 per cent from US$1,126 per ounce in the
December quarter to US$1,299 per ounce in the March quarter
mainly due to higher capital expenditure at Tarkwa and lower gold
sold partially offset by lower operating costs and an inventory
credit to costs.

At the South America region, all-in sustaining costs and total all-in
cost increased by 5 per cent from US$468 per ounce to US$493
per ounce. This was mainly due to lower gold sold and lower by-
product credits, partially offset by lower operating costs, an
inventory credit to costs and lower capital expenditure. All-in
sustaining costs and total all-in cost per equivalent ounce
decreased by 2 per cent from US$682 per equivalent ounce to
US$671 per equivalent ounce.

At the Australia region, all-in sustaining costs and total all-in cost
increased by 14 per cent from A$1,089 per ounce (US$930 per
ounce) in the December quarter to A$1,240 per ounce (US$978
per ounce) in the March quarter mainly due to lower gold sold and
the gold inventory charge to cost, partially offset by the lower
operating costs and lower capital expenditure.

FREE CASH FLOW MARGIN

The Group has shifted focus from principally ounces of gold in
production to cash generation, reflecting our new goal of a Group
15 per cent free cash flow margin at a gold price of US$1,300 per
ounce. The free cash flow (FCF) margin is revenue less cash
outflow divided by revenue expressed as a percentage.

The FCF for the Group for the March quarter is calculated as
follows:

March 2015                                US$'m   US$/oz

Revenue*                                   585.2   1,215

Share-based payments (as non-cash)           3.1       6
Long-term employee benefits                  3.1       6
Exploration, feasibility and evaluation      5.6      12
costs outside of existing operations
Tax paid (excluding royalties)            (53.8)     112
Free cash flow**                          (17.4)    (36)
FCF margin                                  (3)%
Gold sold only – 000'ounces                481.6

*  Revenue from income statement at US$609.8 million less revenue from by-products
   in AIC at US$24.6 million equals US$585.2 million.

** Free cash flow does not agree with cash flows from operating activities less capital
   expenditure in the statement of cash flows on page 19 mainly due to working capital
   adjustments and non-recurring items included in statement of cash flows.

The FCF margin of negative 3 per cent in the March quarter at a
gold price of US$1,198 per ounce compared with positive 9 per
cent in the December quarter at a gold price of US$1,179 per
ounce.

The lower FCF margin in the March quarter was mainly due to
lower gold sold and higher taxation paid due to the higher
seasonal payment in Ghana and Australia in the March quarter.

BALANCE SHEET

Net debt (long-term loans plus the current portion of long-term
loans less cash and deposits) increased from US$1,453 million at
the end of December to US$1,499 million at the end of March, a
US$46 million increase.

NET DEBT/EBITDA

The net debt/EBITDA ratio at the end of the March quarter was
1.41 calculated on the actual results for the 12 months ended
March 2015.

Gold production decreased by 25 per cent from 1,508 kilograms
(48,500 ounces) in the December quarter to 1,129 kilograms
(36,300 ounces) in the March quarter. This was mainly as a result
of the extended Christmas break.

Total tonnes milled decreased by 34 per cent from 394,000
tonnes in the December quarter to 262,000 tonnes in the March
quarter. Total tonnes milled included 6,200 tonnes of
underground waste mining and 31,700 tonnes of surface tailings
material. The treatment of the surface material was necessitated
to sustain the backfill requirement as the mine has started to fill
historical open stopes in addition to normal mining requirements.
Underground reef yield increased by 3 per cent from 4.86 grams
per tonne to 5.01 grams per tonne due to an increase in grade
from the 3-West section where normal stoping operations are
continuing. The plant recovery factor increased marginally from
95.7 per cent to 95.9 per cent.

Development decreased by 39 per cent from 1,358 metres in the
December quarter to 834 metres in the March quarter mainly due
to scheduled lower development largely associated with the
Christmas break. No new mine capital development (phase one,
sub 95 level) was done during the March quarter as this is
scheduled to commence in the June quarter. Development in the
current mine areas in 95 level and above decreased from 1,355
metres to 834 metres. Vertical development decreased from 3
metres in the December quarter to nil in the March quarter.
Destress mining decreased from 10,700 square metres in the
December quarter to 7,563 square metres in the March quarter.
This was due to the reduced production shifts in the March quarter
(as a result of the extended Christmas break) as opposed to the
December quarter.

During the March quarter, the current mine (95 level and above)
contributed 76 per cent of the ore tonnes and the new mine
(below 95 level) contributed 24 per cent. The long-hole stoping
method accounted for 24 per cent of total ore tonnes mined.

Operating costs increased by 3 per cent from R618 million (US$55
million) in the December quarter to R634 million (US$54 million) in
the March quarter, mainly due to anticipated annual increases for
senior officials effective 1 January 2015 and more overtime
worked during the Christmas break.

Operating losses of R118 million (US$10 million) in the March
quarter compared with an operating profit of R37 million (US$3
million) in the December quarter. This was mainly due to lower
gold sold and higher operating costs.

Capital expenditure decreased from R328 million (US$30 million)
in the December quarter to R219 million (US$19 million) in the
March quarter as a result of lower spending on growth related
items due to infrastructure required for the build-up having been
largely completed. A large portion of capital expenditure included
fleet for deployment in both the current and the new mine.
Additional fleet of R70 million (US$6 million) included three
explosive charging units, two drill rigs, two bolters and a number
of pedestrian detection systems.

All-in sustaining costs increased from R589,565 per kilogram
(US$1,640 per ounce) in the December quarter to R726,648 per
kilogram (US$1,929 per ounce) in the March quarter due to the
lower gold sold and higher operating costs, partially offset by
lower sustaining capital expenditure.

Total all-in cost increased from R642,948 per kilogram (US$1,789
per ounce) in the December quarter to R774,335 per kilogram
(US$2,055 per ounce) in the March quarter also due to the lower
gold sold and higher operating costs, partially offset by lower non-
sustaining capital expenditure.

Sustaining capital expenditure decreased from R250 million
(US$22 million) in the December quarter to R165 million (US$14
million) in the March quarter and non-sustaining capital
expenditure decreased from R78 million (US$7 million) to R54
million (US$5 million) in the March quarter.

* Heap leach produced nil ounces in the March quarter (2,500 ounces in the December
  quarter), rinsed from inventory.

Gold production increased by 2 per cent from 133,100 ounces in
the December quarter to 135,800 ounces in the March quarter
due to higher yield.

Total tonnes mined, including capital stripping, increased from
22.2 million tonnes in the December quarter to 25.7 million tonnes
in the March quarter mainly due to improved excavator and drill rig
availabilities. Ore tonnes mined increased from 3.0 million tonnes
to 3.9 million tonnes. Operational waste tonnes mined increased
from 7.6 million tonnes to 8.2 million tonnes and capital waste
tonnes mined increased from 11.6 million tonnes to 13.6 million
tonnes. Head grade mined increased from 1.31 grams per tonne
to 1.37 grams per tonne. The strip ratio decreased from 6.3 to
5.5.

The CIL plant throughput was similar at 3.38 million tonnes
despite the continuation and worsening of regulated power load
shedding. Realised yield from the CIL plant increased from 1.20
grams per tonne to 1.24 grams per tonne due to higher head
grades. The CIL plant production increased from 130,600 ounces
in the December quarter to 135,800 ounces in the March quarter
due to increased head grade.

The North heap leach section was discontinued in the March 2014
quarter with 192,000 tonnes stacked in that quarter. Gold
production from heap leach operations decreased from 2,500
ounces being rinsed in the December quarter to nil being rinsed in
the March quarter.

Net operating costs, including gold-in-process movements,
decreased from US$89 million in the December quarter to US$82
million in the March quarter due to efficient cost control, despite
the increase in mining volumes.

Operating profit increased from US$71 million in the December
quarter to US$84 million in the March quarter as a result of the
higher gold sold, higher gold price and the lower net operating
costs.

Capital expenditure increased from US$52 million to US$85
million with the majority of expenditure on pre-stripping and mining
fleet. Fleet replacement consisted of 18 x 785 trucks to the value
of US$46 million.

All-in sustaining costs and total all-in cost increased from
US$1,142 per ounce in the December quarter to US$1,299 per
ounce in the March quarter due to higher capital expenditure,
partially offset by the lower operating costs and increased gold
sold.

Gold production decreased by 18 per cent from 47,800 ounces in
the December quarter to 39,000 ounces in the March quarter
mainly due to lower tonnes processed at lower grade.

Total tonnes mined, including capital stripping, increased from 4.7
million tonnes in the December quarter to 5.4 million tonnes in the
March quarter.

Ore tonnes mined increased from 0.9 million tonnes to 1.0 million
tonnes. Operational waste tonnes mined increased from 3.8
million tonnes in the December quarter to 4.4 million tonnes in the
March quarter due to increased efficiencies achieved from the
mining fleet. Head grade mined decreased from 1.43 grams per
tonne to 1.30 grams per tonne. The lower grades mined was
mainly due to less high grade ore exposed in the pits during the
March quarter in line with the mining schedule. The situation will
improve in the June quarter. The strip ratio increased from 4.1 to
4.3.

Yield decreased from 1.38 grams per tonne to 1.19 grams per
tonne due to lower grades mined in the March quarter.

Tonnes processed decreased from 1.08 million tonnes in the
December quarter to 1.02 million tonnes in the March quarter due
to a decrease in plant utilisation from 92 per cent in the December
quarter to 87 per cent in the March quarter as a result of power
interruptions from the grid.

Net operating costs, including gold-in-process movements,
decreased from US$47 million to US$44 million due to a US$1
million build-up of inventory in the March quarter compared with a
US$1 million drawdown in the December quarter as well as to
lower tonnes treated and efficient cost control.

Operating profit decreased from US$11 million in the December
quarter to US$4 million in the March quarter due to the lower gold
sold.

Capital expenditure increased from US$2 million to US$4 million
due to timing of expenditure with the majority spent on the
processing plant upgrade and HME (Heavy vehicle equipment)
components.

All-in sustaining costs and total all-in cost increased from
US$1,082 per ounce in the December quarter to US$1,299 per
ounce in the March quarter due to the lower gold sold and higher
capital expenditure, partially offset by lower net operating costs.

Gold production decreased by 17 per cent from 41,200 ounces in
the December quarter to 34,200 ounces in the March quarter.
Copper production decreased by 14 per cent from 7,866 tonnes to
6,744 tonnes. Equivalent gold production decreased by 21 per
cent from 84,600 ounces to 66,600 ounces. The decrease in gold
and copper production was due to lower gold and copper head
grades treated. This was in line with the mine sequencing and the
production schedule for the March quarter. Gold head grade
decreased from 1.13 grams per tonne to 0.97 grams per tonne
and copper head grade decreased from 0.57 per cent to 0.51 per
cent. Gold recoveries increased from 71.1 per cent to 71.3 per
cent and copper recoveries decreased from 86.6 per cent 85.6 per
cent resulting from lower copper head grades. Gold yield
decreased from 0.80 grams per tonne to 0.69 grams per tonne
and copper yield decreased from 0.49 per cent to 0.44 per cent.

In the March quarter, concentrate with a payable content of
29,093 ounces of gold was sold at an average price of US$1,202
per ounce and 5,703 tonnes of copper was sold at an average
price of US$5,198 per tonne, net of treatment and refining
charges. This compared with 54,881 ounces of gold that was sold
at an average price of US$1,289 per ounce and 10,125 tonnes of
copper that was sold at an average price of US$5,785 per tonne,
net of treatment and refining charges, in the December quarter.
Total equivalent gold sales decreased by 49 per cent from
110,900 ounces in the December quarter to 56,400 ounces in the
March quarter mainly due to delays in the shipping of concentrate.
Adverse weather conditions affected transportation of concentrate
to the Salaverry port. The port was also closed for a number of
days due to inclement weather and as a consequence shipping
was delayed.

Tonnes mined increased by 6 per cent from 2.96 million tonnes in
the December quarter to 3.14 million tonnes in the March quarter
resulting from higher waste mined in order to increase rock fill
mined for tailing dam construction. Ore mined increased
marginally from 1.62 million tonnes to 1.63 million tonnes. The
strip ratio increased from 0.83 to 0.93 due to higher waste mined.

Ore processed decreased by 4 per cent from 1.66 million tonnes
in the December quarter to 1.60 million tonnes in the March
quarter mainly due to a decrease in plant throughput from 795
tonnes per hour in the December quarter to 781 tonnes per hour
in the March quarter as a result of harder material treated.

Net operating costs, including gold-in-process movements,
decreased from US$57 million in the December quarter to US$28
million in the March quarter. The lower cost was mainly due to
lower diesel prices as well as a US$5 million build-up of
concentrate inventory at the end of the March quarter compared
with a US$13 million drawdown in the December quarter.

Operating profit decreased from US$59 million in the December
quarter to US$29 million in the March quarter mainly due to lower
gold/copper sold, partially offset by lower net operating costs.

Capital expenditure decreased from US$12 million to US$7 million
mainly due to reduced construction activities at the tailings dam as
a result of the rainy season.

All-in sustaining costs and total all-in cost increased from US$468
per ounce in the December quarter to US$493 per ounce in the
March quarter mainly due to lower by-product credits and lower
gold sold, partially offset by lower operating costs, an inventory
credit to cost and lower capital expenditure. All-in sustaining costs
and total all-in costs per equivalent ounce decreased from
US$682 per equivalent ounce to US$671 per equivalent ounce.

* Heap leach produced 1,100 ounces, rinsed from inventory (1,700 ounces was rinsed in
  the December quarter).

Gold production increased by 6 per cent from 93,000 ounces in
the December quarter to 98,700 ounces in the March quarter.

At the underground operations, ore mined decreased by 9 per
cent from 464,000 tonnes in the December quarter to 423,000
tonnes in the March quarter as a result of reduced tonnes from
Athena and Cave Rocks operations. Cave Rocks is scheduled to
be put on care and maintenance in the June quarter. The
average grade of ore mined increased from 4.12 grams per tonne
to 4.31 grams per tonne due to improved grades from Athena and
Hamlet operations.

At the open pit operations, total ore tonnes mined decreased from
730,000 tonnes in the December quarter to 201,000 tonnes in the
March quarter. Grade mined decreased from 2.58 grams per
tonne to 2.32 grams per tonne. The decreased mined tonnes and
grade reflects the completion of mining of the high grade Neptune
pit at the end of the December quarter. Some 171,000 tonnes of
stockpiled Neptune ore at a grade of 5.4 grams per tonne was
processed during the March quarter. The St Ives mill is limited to
processing approximately 20 per cent of oxide (soft) material such
as the Neptune ore.

Operational waste tonnes mined decreased from 1.4 million
tonnes to 0.5 million tonnes with the completion of the Neptune
pit. Capital waste tonnes mined increased from 0.1 million tonnes
in the December quarter to 3.5 million tonnes in the March
quarter, as the focus moved to stripping of the Invincible pit. The
lower capital waste tonnes in the December quarter were due to
the set up and sheeting of causeways and preparatory works at
Invincible which is a salt lake based pit.

Throughput at the Lefroy mill increased from 0.97 million tonnes to
1.14 million tonnes. This was due to a planned maintenance
shutdown in the December quarter. Yield decreased from 2.91
grams per tonne to 2.68 grams per tonne mainly due to a build-up
of gold-in-circuit at the end of the March quarter. Gold production
increased from 91,300 ounces in the December quarter to 97,600
ounces in the March quarter mainly due to higher volumes of ore
processed. Following the cessation of stacking activities at the
end of 2012, irrigation of the existing heap leach pad continued
and a further 1,100 ounces were produced in the March quarter
compared with 1,700 ounces produced in the December quarter.
Since cessation of stacking activities, a total of 20,900 ounces
have been produced.

Net operating costs, including gold-in-process movements,
increased from A$61 million (US$51 million) in the December
quarter to A$87 million (US$68 million) in the March quarter
mainly due to an inventory charge of A$18 million (US$14 million)
in the March quarter compared with an inventory credit of A$22
million (US$20 million) in the December quarter. This was due to
ore mined at Neptune stockpiled in the December quarter and
then processed in the March quarter.

Operating profit decreased from A$70 million (US$61 million) in
the December quarter to A$67 million (US$53 million) in the
March quarter due to the inventory credit in the December quarter
and charge in the March quarter.

Capital expenditure increased from A$28 million (US$24 million) in
the December quarter to A$32 million (US$25 million) in the
March quarter due to the pre-stripping of the Invincible pit.

All-in sustaining costs and total all-in cost increased from A$1,023
per ounce (US$860 per ounce) in the December quarter to
A$1,304 per ounce (US$1,029 per ounce) in the March quarter
due to higher net operating costs as a result of the inventory
charge in the March quarter.

Gold production decreased by 19 per cent from 73,200 ounces in
the December quarter to 59,600 ounces in the March quarter
mainly due to a decrease in tonnes processed, lower yield and
7,000 ounces lower drawdown from gold-in-circuit in the March
quarter.

Ore mined from underground decreased by 5 per cent from
305,900 tonnes in the December quarter to 290,000 tonnes in the
March quarter and head grade increased by 6 per cent from 6.49
grams per tonne to 6.85 grams per tonne.

Tonnes processed decreased from 329,000 tonnes in the
December quarter to 312,000 tonnes in the March quarter. The
combined yield decreased from 6.92 grams per tonne to 5.94
grams per tonne. The decreased yield reflects lower grade
inventory processed in the March quarter compared with higher
grade inventory processed in the December quarter.

Net operating costs, including gold-in-process movements,
decreased from A$53 million (US$46 million) in the December
quarter to A$47 million (US$37 million) in the March quarter due to
a A$7 million (US$6 million) inventory charge to cost in the
December quarter in respect of the 8,100 ounce drawdown of
gold-in-circuit referred to above compared with A$1 million (US$1
million) in the March quarter.

Operating profit decreased from A$50 million (US$43 million) in
the December quarter to A$45 million (US$36 million) in the
March quarter due to lower gold sold, partially offset by the lower
net operating costs.

Capital expenditure decreased from A$27 million (US$23 million)
in the December quarter to A$20 million (US$16 million) in the
March quarter. The capital expenditure in the December quarter
was higher than normal due to the completion of key capital work
projects before the 2014 year-end.

All-in sustaining costs and total all-in cost increased from A$1,135
per ounce (US$979 per ounce) in the December quarter to
A$1,206 per ounce (US$951 per ounce) in the March quarter
mainly due to lower gold sold partially offset by the lower net
operating costs and capital expenditure.

Gold production decreased by 28 per cent from 15,500 ounces in
the December quarter to 11,200 ounces in the March quarter due
to reduced tonnes processed at lower grade as a result of lower
ore mined.

Ore mined from underground decreased from 121,000 tonnes to
86,000 tonnes due to the constraints of mining in scattered
remnant areas over a relatively large footprint while development
to the higher grade Lords South Lower virgin ore body continues.
Capital waste tonnes mined increased from 19,800 tonnes in the
December quarter to 40,000 tonnes in the March quarter due to
the development to Lords South Lower while operational waste
tonnes mined decreased from 32,100 tonnes to 23,500 tonnes.
An increased number of stopes from remnant mining areas were
mined and these were smaller in size than in previous quarters
resulting in more dilution due to geological constraints. Head
grade increased from 4.15 grams per tonne in the December
quarter to 4.37 grams per tonne in the March quarter. The
benefits of the Lords South Lower development are expected to
be realised in the second half of 2015 and into 2016.

Tonnes processed decreased from 116,000 tonnes in the
December quarter to 86,000 tonnes in the March quarter due to
lower ore tonnes mined. The yield decreased from 4.16 grams
per tonne to 4.04 grams per tonne mainly due to a build-up of
higher grade ore mined, not processed, at the end of the quarter.

Net operating costs, including gold-in-process movements
decreased from A$22 million (US$18 million) in the December
quarter to A$19 million (US$15 million) in the March quarter
mainly due to reduced volumes mined and processed.

An operating loss of A$1 million (US$1 million) in the March
quarter compared with a profit of nil in the December quarter due
to the lower gold sold, partially offset by the lower net operating
costs in the March quarter.

Capital expenditure increased from A$4 million (US$3 million) to
A$5 million (US$4 million).

All-in sustaining costs and total all-in cost increased from A$1,673
per ounce (US$1,433 per ounce) to A$2,226 per ounce
(US$1,757 per ounce) mainly due to the lower gold sold, partially
offset by the lower net operating costs.

Notwithstanding the difficulties associated with mining in remnant
areas, Darlot is continuing the strategy, where practicable, of self-
funding a meaningful exploration programme in order to extend
the mine's life and begin the search for the "game changer" which
is targeted to return the mine to a 15 per cent free cash flow
margin.

Gold production decreased by 8 per cent from 78,500 ounces in
the December quarter to 72,000 ounces in the March quarter, as
scheduled, due to lower volumes and grade mined.

Ore mined from underground decreased from 354,000 tonnes to
323,000 tonnes and head grade mined decreased from 7.50
grams per tonne in the December quarter to 6.30 grams per tonne
in the March quarter with mining activity taking place in lower
grade areas of the ore-body. The decrease in tonnes mined was
as a result of operational interruptions, including several power
outages in the March quarter. Subsequent to quarter end,
rectification works have been performed on the power lines to the
underground mine.

Tonnes processed increased by 5 per cent from 352,000 tonnes
in the December quarter to 370,000 tonnes in the March quarter
with some ore stockpiled in the December quarter being
processed in the March quarter. The yield decreased from 6.94
grams per tonne to 6.05 grams per tonne due to lower grades
mined during the March quarter.

Net operating costs, including gold-in-process movements, were
similar at A$48 million (US$38 million).

Operating profit decreased marginally from A$65 million (US$56
million) in the December quarter to A$64 million (US$50 million) in
the March quarter due to the lower gold sold.

Capital expenditure decreased from A$27 million (US$24 million)
in the December quarter to A$20 million (US$16 million) in the
March quarter.

All-in sustaining costs and total all-in cost increased from A$1,009
per ounce (US$868 per ounce) in the December quarter to
A$1,027 per ounce (US$810 per ounce) in the March quarter
mainly due to lower gold sold, partially offset by the lower capital
expenditure.

Quarter ended 31 March 2015 compared with
quarter ended 31 March 2014

Group attributable equivalent gold production decreased by 10 per
cent from 557,000 ounces for the March 2014 quarter to 501,300
ounces for the March 2015 quarter mainly due to lower production
at all the operations except St Ives and Granny Smith.

At the South Africa region, gold production at South Deep,
decreased by 39 per cent from 1,840 kilograms (59,200 ounces)
in the March 2014 quarter to 1,129 kilograms (36,300 ounces) in
the March 2015 quarter mainly due to the extensive ground
support remediation programme introduced in May 2014 and the
commensurate effect thereof which is expected to affect
production throughout 2015.

At the West Africa region, total managed gold production
decreased by 9 per cent from 191,900 ounces in the March 2014
quarter to 174,800 ounces in the March 2015 quarter. At Tarkwa,
gold production decreased by 6 per cent from 145,200 ounces to
135,800 ounces mainly due to the cessation of crushing and
stacking operations at the heap leach facilities. In the March 2014
quarter, the heap leach operation produced 15,400 ounces
compared with nil in the March 2015 quarter. At Damang, gold
production decreased by 16 per cent from 46,700 ounces to
39,000 ounces mainly due to lower tonnes processed and lower
grade.

At the South America region, gold equivalent production at Cerro
Corona decreased by 17 per cent from 80,500 ounces in the
March 2014 quarter to 66,600 ounces in the March 2015 quarter
mainly due to a decrease in ore processed and lower copper
grades.

At the Australia region, gold production decreased by 2 per cent
from 245,200 ounces in the March 2014 quarter to 241,400
ounces in the March 2015 quarter. At St Ives, gold production
increased by 2 per cent from 96,600 ounces to 98,700 ounces,
mainly due to higher underground head grade. At
Agnew/Lawlers, gold production increased marginally from 59,200
ounces to 59,600 ounces. At Darlot gold production decreased by
51 per cent from 22,900 ounces to 11,200 ounces due to a
decrease in tonnes mined and processed. At Granny Smith, gold
production increased by 8 per cent from 66,500 ounces to 72,000
ounces mainly due to an increase in grade.

INCOME STATEMENT

Revenue decreased by 15 per cent from US$715 million in the
March 2014 quarter to US$610 million in the March 2015 quarter
due to the lower gold sold and the lower gold price received. The
average gold price decreased by 7 per cent from US$1,283 per
ounce to US$1,198 per ounce. The average Rand/US dollar
exchange rate weakened by 8 per cent from R10.85 in the March
2014 quarter to R11.71 in the March 2015 quarter. The average
Australian/US dollar exchange rate weakened by 11 per cent from
A$1.00 = US$0.89 to A$1.00 = US$0.79.

Net operating costs decreased from US$423 million to US$366
million due to the lower production and good cost control.

At South Deep in South Africa, net operating costs decreased by
11 per cent from R714 million (US$66 million) in the March 2014
quarter to R634 million (US$54 million) in the March 2015 quarter.
This was mainly due to the lower production as well as cost
restructuring, partially offset by annual wage increases and normal
inflationary increases. All-in sustaining costs of R726,648 per
kilogram (US$1,929 per ounce) and total all-in cost of R774,335
per kilogram (US$2,055 per ounce) in the March 2015 quarter
compared with all-in sustaining costs of R469,227 per kilogram
(US$1,345 per ounce) and total all-in cost of R557,078 per
kilogram (US$1,597 per ounce) in the March 2014 quarter due to
lower gold sold.

At the West Africa region, net operating costs decreased by 9 per
cent from US$137 million in the March 2014 quarter to US$125
million in the March 2015 quarter. All-in sustaining costs and total
all-in cost for the region amounted to US$1,299 per ounce in the
March 2015 quarter compared with US$1,039 per ounce in the
March 2014 quarter. At Tarkwa, net operating costs decreased by
15 per cent from US$96 million to US$82 million due to the lower
production, the closure of the heap leach, good cost control
partially offset by annual wage increases and increased power
rates. All-in sustaining costs and total all-in costs amounted to
US$1,299 per ounce in the March 2015 quarter compared with
US$1,016 per ounce in the March 2014 quarter due to an
increase in capital expenditure from US$39 million in the March
2014 quarter to US$85 million in the March 2015 quarter.

At Damang, net operating costs increased by 7 per cent from
US$41 million to US$44 million due to a US$1 million credit to
cost in the March 2015 quarter compared with US$3 million in the
March 2014 quarter. All-in sustaining costs and total all-in cost
amounted to US$1,299 per ounce in the March 2015 quarter
compared with US$1,111 per ounce in the March 2014 quarter
due to lower gold sold and higher net operating costs.

At Cerro Corona in South America, net operating costs increased
by 17 per cent from US$24 million in the March 2014 quarter to
US$28 million in the March 2015 quarter. This was mainly due to
a US$13 million gold-in-process credit to costs in the March 2014
quarter compared with US$5 million in the March 2015 quarter.
All-in sustaining costs and total all-in cost amounted to US$493
per ounce in the March 2015 quarter compared with US$97 per
ounce in the March 2014 quarter due to higher net operating costs
and lower by-product credits. All-in sustaining costs and total all-
in cost, on a gold equivalent basis amounted to US$671 per
ounce in the March 2015 quarter compared with US$581 per
ounce in the March 2014 quarter.

At the Australia region, net operating costs decreased by 9 per
cent from A$219 million (US$196 million) in the March 2014
quarter to A$200 million (US$158 million) in the March 2015
quarter. All-in sustaining costs and total all-in cost for the region
amounted to A$1,240 per ounce (US$978 per ounce) in the March
2015 quarter compared with A$1,234 per ounce (US$1,103 per
ounce) in the March 2014 quarter.

At St Ives, net operating costs decreased by 10 per cent from
A$97 million (US$87 million) to A$87 million (US$68 million)
mainly due to lower underground tonnes mined in the March 2015
quarter as well as cost improvements. All-in sustaining costs and
total all-in cost for St Ives amounted to A$1,304 per ounce
(US$1,029 per ounce) in the March 2015 quarter compared with
A$1,444 per ounce (US$1,291 per ounce) in the March 2014
quarter due to lower net operating costs, lower capital expenditure
and higher gold sold.

At Agnew/Lawlers, net operating costs increased by 12 per cent
from A$42 million (US$37 million) in the March 2014 quarter to
A$47 million (US$37 million) in the March 2015 quarter due to an
increase in tonnes mined and processed. All-in sustaining costs
and total all-in cost for Agnew/Lawlers amounted to A$1,206 per
ounce (US$951 per ounce) in the March 2015 quarter compared
with A$1,147 per ounce (US$1,025 per ounce) in the March 2014
quarter due to higher net operating costs.

At Darlot net operating costs decreased by 21 per cent from A$24
million (US$22 million) in the March 2014 quarter to A$19 million
(US$15 million) in the March 2015 quarter. All-in sustaining costs
and total all-in cost amounted to A$2,226 per ounce (US$1,757
per ounce) in the March 2015 quarter compared with A$1,203 per
ounce (US$1,075 per ounce) in the March 2014 quarter due to
lower gold sold.

At Granny Smith, net operating costs decreased by 14 per cent
from A$56 million (US$50 million) in the March 2014 quarter to
A$48 million (US$38 million) in the March 2015 quarter. All-in
sustaining costs and total all-in cost amounted to A$1,027 per
ounce (US$810 per ounce) in the March 2015 quarter compared
with A$1,018 per ounce (US$910 per ounce) in the March 2014
quarter due to higher gold sold and lower net operating costs,
partially offset by higher capital expenditure.

The Group all-in sustaining costs of US$1,143 per ounce and total
all-in cost of US$1,164 per ounce in the March 2015 quarter
compared with all-in sustaining costs of US$1,066 per ounce and
total all-in cost of US$1,114 per ounce in the March 2014 quarter
due to lower production and higher capital expenditure, partially
offset by lower net operating costs.

Operating profit decreased from US$292 million to US$244 million
as a result of the above.

Amortisation for the Group decreased from US$159 million in the
March 2014 quarter to US$141 million in the March 2015 quarter
due to the lower production and the change in estimate in the
depreciation calculation at the Australian operations.

Net interest paid was similar at US$19 million.

The share of equity accounted losses after taxation increased
from US$1 million to US$3 million and mainly related to the
ongoing study and evaluation costs at the Far Southeast project
(FSE) and the Groups' share of Hummingbird losses of US$2
million.

The gains on foreign exchange of US$2 million in the March 2015
quarter compared with US$nil in the March 2014 quarter. These
gains on foreign exchange related to the conversion of offshore
cash holdings into their functional currencies.

The loss on financial instruments of US$3 million in the March
2015 quarter compared with US$nil in the March 2014 quarter and
related to the mark to market adjustment on diesel hedges that the
Australian operations entered into on 10 September and 26
November 2014.

Share-based payments for the Group decreased from US$11
million in the March 2014 quarter to US$3 million in the March
2015 quarter due to the implementation of a new long-term
employee incentive scheme in 2014. Long-term employee
benefits of US$3 million in the March 2015 quarter compared with
US$nil in the March 2014 quarter. Together the two schemes
decreased from US$11 million to US$6 million.

Exploration expenditure increased marginally from US$12 million
in the March 2014 quarter to US$13 million in the March 2015
quarter due to higher expenditure at Salares Norte.

Royalties of US$18 million in the March 2015 quarter compared
with US$22 million in the March 2014 quarter due to lower
revenue.

The taxation charge of US$44 million in the March 2015 quarter
compared with US$29 million in the March 2014 quarter with the
increase due to the negative deferred tax adjustment as a result of
the devaluation of the Peruvian Nuevo Sol against the US dollar.

As a result of the above, net losses attributable to the Gold Fields
shareholders of US$14 million in the March 2015 quarter
compared with US$nil in the March 2015 quarter.

Normalised losses of US$13 million in the March 2015 quarter
compared with normalised earnings of US$21 million in the March
2014 quarter.

CASH FLOW

Cash inflow from operating activities of US$150 million in the
March 2015 quarter compared with cash inflow of US$198 million
in the March 2014 quarter with the decrease mainly due to lower
operating profit and higher royalties and taxation paid in March
2015.

Dividends paid to owners of the parent of US$13 million in the
March 2015 quarter compared with US$16 million in the March
2014 quarter.

Cash outflows from investing activities increased from US$144
million to US$179 million, mainly due to higher capital
expenditure.

Capital expenditure increased from US$141 million in the March
2014 quarter to US$175 million in the March 2015 quarter mainly
due to additional expenditure on fleet purchases at Tarkwa,
partially offset by reduced expenditure at South Deep. At the
South Africa region, capital expenditure at South Deep decreased
from R282 million (US$26 million) to R219 million (US$19 million)
due to key infrastructure required for the production build-up
having been largely completed.

At the West Africa region, capital expenditure increased from
US$46 million in the March 2014 quarter to US$89 million in the
March 2015 quarter mainly due to higher expenditure on mining
fleet at Tarkwa. In South America, at Cerro Corona, capital
expenditure was similar at US$7 million. At the Australia region,
capital expenditure increased from A$71 million (US$63 million) to
A$77 million (US$61 million).

Net cash outflow from financing activities of US$8 million in the

INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT

On 31 March 2015 Gold Fields published its Integrated Annual
Report 2014 and a number of associated reports on its website:
the Notice of AGM, the statutory Annual Financial Report 2014,
the 2014 Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve Supplement and
the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) G4 Content Index.

The Integrated Annual Report and the Annual Financial Report
incorporate all aspects of the Group's business, including reviews
of the South African, West African, Australian and South American
operations, the Group's project activities, as well as detailed
financial, operational and sustainable development information.

KPMG have audited the results and their unqualified audit report
is open for inspection at the company's offices.

The Gold Fields Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve
Supplement 2014 contains a comprehensive overview of Gold
Fields' Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserve status as well as a
detailed breakdown for its operations and growth projects.

FORM 20-F FILING

On 14 April 2015 Gold Fields filed its annual report on Form 20-F
for the year ended 31 December 2014 with the US Securities and
Exchange Commission. The document is available on the Gold
Fields website.

BOND

Sibanye Gold has been released as guarantor by the noteholders
of Gold Fields' US$1 billion bond issued on 30 September 2010,
the two companies announced on 29 April 2015. Sibanye
remained as a guarantor of the Bond after its unbundling by Gold
Fields in February 2013. During March 2015 Gold Fields
approached the Bond noteholders through a consent solicitation
process to release Sibanye of its obligations as a guarantor under
the Bond. On 22 April 2015 the noteholders approved the various
resolutions to release Sibanye as a guarantor. The release
became effective on 24 April 2015 when all the conditions to the
extraordinary resolution were met.

Outlook

The lower production, mostly related to scheduling, was
incorporated into the original guidance for the March 2015 quarter.
The Group reaffirms the guidance provided on 12 February 2015
with attributable equivalent gold production for the Group for the
year ending December 2015 forecast at around 2.2 million
ounces.

All-in sustaining costs are forecast at US$1,055 per ounce and
total all-in cost is forecast at US$1,075 per ounce.

Capital expenditure for 2015 is forecast at US$660 million. It is
weighted to the first half of the year, which will have a resultant
impact on AIC.

The above is subject to safety performance which limits the impact
of safety-related stoppages and the forward looking statement on
pages 3 and 28.

Hedging/Derivatives

The Group's policy is to remain unhedged to the gold price. However, hedges are sometimes undertaken on a project specific basis as follows:

  -   to protect cash flows at times of significant expenditure;
  -   for specific debt servicing requirements; and
  -   to safeguard the viability of higher cost operations.

Gold Fields may from time to time establish currency financial instruments to protect underlying cash flows.
