Sasol got plenty of attention on Tuesday, 28 August, by announcing a return to dividends. An increase in the average rand oil price per barrel of 68% did wonders for the earnings and the balance sheet, enabling a R14.70 dividend to be declared.

Headline earnings per share was more than six times higher for the year ended June 2022 than the prior year, a remarkable performance driven by a 69% increase in revenue from continuing operations and Ebitda margin expansion from 26.4% to 47.1%. There has been extensive corporate activity this year, including acquisitions in copper, aluminium and bauxite.
