In its latest Economic Outlook report (November), the OECD, for example, estimates 3.1% global GDP growth in 2022 and 2.2% in 2023. The year further signalled new hope for global growth following 2021’s coronavirus caused downturn. This was tied to the development and widespread deployment of COVID-19 vaccines and collective effort by citizens and stakeholders to voluntarily get vaccinated. Furthermore, majority of the developed countries in the EU, Asia, US and Australia ofcially reopened their borders for business and re-declared the virus from “pandemic to endemic” status. The year further marked a seminal moment on the global markets despite the rise of new variants by the speed at which Western Countries could produce, obtain, and ship out Vaccines to the more vulnerable countries. High energy prices and supply chain bottlenecks spurred on record high ination. The pandemic continued to reinforce the importance of environmental, social, and governance engagement, and this year marked a seminal moment on the pathway to net zero. This was shown by the reafrmation of the Paris Agreement by 200 countries at The UN Climate Change Conference in Glasgow (COP26). The objective around the mining sector is to achieve a ‘Net Zero’ carbon emission by 2050 by increasing the supply of Base Metals such as Copper, cobalt and lithium. This will enable a sustainable transition of energy requirements from the current traditional forms of energy sources (coal and oil) to renewable sources such as solar, wind, and hydro powered hybrid models. The London Metals Exchange (LME) three month or 3M Copper, reported a closing price of US$8,372 per tonne as at 30th December 2022. In China, the loosening of COVID-19 restrictions, along with additional support to the property market, has buoyed sentiment and is expected to lift rened copper demand going into 2023. Mined copper output from Latin America remains disrupted by environmental, social and governance issues, but with smelters in China entering an extended period of care and maintenance, we expect a concentrate surplus of 233,000 tonnes in 2023. Gold was the most popular asset of 2022 in the midst of the turbulence caused by the war in Ukraine, historic ination and high interest rate hikes. Gold helped investors to limit their losses for the year to about 1.5%, compared with >19% for the S & P 500 index and 10% for US Government Bonds. In December, gold reached a 6-month high. Chinese imports of Russian gold jumped up to a 5 year high as Beijing seeks to reduce its dependence on the US dollar. The price received further support towards the end of the month as the dollar weakened. The DRC announced plans to formalize the artisanal mining sector and intends to build a renery in Bukavu in 2023 and also signed an agreement with the UAE, where most of the gold ends up, after being smuggled through Rwanda and Uganda. China increased its gold holdings by 32tonne in November, its rst increase in 3 years, to a total holding of 1,980tonne. The near-term picture for the U.S. economy is mixed, as softer ination in November was met with declining manufacturing activity. Purchasing mangers’ indexes dipped into contractionary territory for the rst time since May 2020, and non-farm payrolls increased against expectations. Following the December Federal Open Market Committee meeting, Chairman Jerome Powell signaled that interest rates will rise further in 2023 and remain high for longer, as the Fed targets an eventual 2% ination rate. This heightens the risk of a recession in 2023, with a possible rise in unemployment set to test the Fed’s resolve to stick to its ination target. We nevertheless forecast U.S. rened copper demand growth for 2023 at 1.5%, due to renewable energy deployment and near-sourced electric vehicle manufacturing, as supported by the Ination Reduction Act, which was signed in August. ABOUT US (continued) 14 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY Zambian Economy Africa’s second largest copper hotspot Zambia ended 2022 with a plethora of positives ranging from a stronger condence standing in the international market to attainment of a landmark target, consensus with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) Staff Mission team on a US$1.4 billion Extended Credit Facility (ECF). The Zambian Kwacha continued to be vulnerable to the US dollar. In September 2022, the currency was the world’s best performing against the US dollar, rallying over 18.5% from January the same year. A range of monetary and scal measures appeared to be behind the economy’s strength. The Kwacha’s performance had been rmly supported by two strong pillars in the economy, and thus the continuous support by the central bank throughout the year. On the other side, local Forex market was sustained by project funding. So far, this year, the central bank has substantially pumped slightly above US$1.3 billion into the domestic Forex market. The local unit started getting stable and stronger after the International Monetary Fund (IMF) came on board around August 2022, when its executive board approved a US$ 1.4 billion facility in favor of Zambia to restore the country’s economic stability and drive development. Annual ination for December 2022 slightly increased to 9.9 percent from 9.8 percent recorded in November 2022. The slight increase of year-to-year ination is attributed to the movement in prices of non-food items. Furthermore, the year-on-year ination rate took a massive tumble as it reduced to 9.9% from 16.4% as at December 2021. This is depicted in the gure 2 below.

ZCCM-IH is committed to ensuring robust risk management practices for successful mitigation against existing and emerging risks that are complex and continuously changing. Our risk management process offers a tiered structure approach that includes: • Identifying and describing the existing risks (and establishing the tools to identify new risks) • An investment management process that entails the incorporation of risk identication, mitigation, and tracking measures monthly at Company and Group level • An extensive and thorough pre-investment due diligence process • Establishing control and governance structures, including proper structuring of three lines of defence model at Company and Group level • Establishing the conditions for the institution to prevent the formation of new unwanted risks. • Creation of an appropriate “risk culture” and risk governance at Company and Group level. Further, the Risk Management function ensures alignment between risk management and strategy for efcient operations. As such, risk management is central to our investment decision-making processes. Main Risks Our business is subject to inherent risks in nancial, regulatory, strategic, and operational areas among others. The risks described below are not the only ones facing ZCCM-IH, but describe some of our key sources of uncertainty and critical risk management activities: Key focus areas: • Strategy/Stakeholder engagement: risks arising from uncertainties that may impact the achievement of our strategic objectives and stakeholders. • Investments: risks arising from events and uncertainties that may impact our investment activities. • Financial: risks arising from events related to nancial reporting, funding, liquidity, and credit. • Operations: risks arising from our business, that have the potential to impact operational performance, people and environment. • Compliance: risks arising from non-compliance ABOUT US (continued) 17 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY KEY RISK TYPE RISK DESCRIPTION RISK MANAGEMENT AND MITIGATION Strategic risk Strategic risk arises from the design and implementation of our business model, the key decisions made in relation to investment and capital allocation, as well as uncertainties and untapped opportunities embedded in our strategic intent and how well they are executed. It also arises from the negative impact that can result from the deterioration of the Groups reputation among stakeholders and the public, resulting in: revenue loss, litigation, regulatory sanctions, and decline in share price. • Alignment of subsidiary strategic plans to group strategy. • Strategy reviews for all businesses are conducted periodically. • Appointment of representatives on subsidiary boards to ensure oversight. • Ensuring that the group only invests in opportunities that have been extensively tested, reviewed and approved by the investments committee. The testing phase includes stress testing of the models, considerations of a legal, tax and risk opinion to validate the business case. Financial Risk Financial risk is an inherent part of our business, and it arises from: • Signicant changes in the market prices of the minerals which has a direct impact on the cash ows. • Currency uctuations also affect the nancial performance of our investments. • Limited access to affordable capital required to fund exploration and identied investment opportunities especially those that require signicant • Capital outlay. The implementation of risk management process on all investments and subsidiary matters to provide assessment and identication of emerging and on-going risks with corresponding information and advice on how to manage these risks. This allows business/investment decisions to take all relevant risks adequately into account. Compliance Risk Compliance risk is ZCCM-IH’s potential exposure to legal penalties, nancial forfeiture, and material loss, resulting from failure to act in accordance with industry laws and regulations, internal policies or prescribed best practices • Ensure compliance by facilitating the regular identication, mitigation and reporting of compliance risk. • Regular review of applicable legislation, policy direction and other relevant documentation, such as budgets to execute directives and resolutions Investment risk This is the risk of incurring nancial losses in ZCCM-IH’s portfolio in pursuit of returns. This risk would arise from; • Under-performance by investee companies; • non-performing shareholder loans and advances; and • Investment concentration risk. Change in the political, economic, social factors and economic outlook. The Group’s portfolio focus approach includes business review meetings. The key agenda in each of these meetings is to assess the management of all the key risks that the asset is exposed to. The Group also seeks to, as much as possible, diversify its investments by investing in a diverse range of minerals. ABOUT US (continued) RISK MANAGEMENT(continued) 18 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY KEY RISK TYPE RISK DESCRIPTION RISK MANAGEMENT AND MITIGATION Operational risk A failure of key processes, systems and/or people comes at additional operating costs to ZCCM-IH, thereby reducing overall operational efciency and effectiveness. • Establishment of clear policies and processes. • Embracing and fostering a culture of diversity and inclusivity which encourages staff to be innovative and be supportive of each other. • Monitoring compliance with the policies and processes • Clear goal setting and performance management • A people driven approach to managing the enabling technology and ensuring that system support is available at all times. This includes technology allowing staff to work remotely as may be needed from time to time. Three Lines of Defence Model In 2021 ZCCM-IH implemented the three lines of defence model which is an accepted regulated framework designed to facilitate an effective risk management system. This was done by revising the Company’s Organizational Structure where the Risk Management function was split from the former Risk and Internal Audit Directorate and is now a stand-alone function. The Audit Committee of the Board and the main Board provide oversight and guidance on the improvement of risk management. The Risk Function is tasked with the implementation of the Enterprise Risk Management Framework by facilitating risk management enterprise wide and inculcating a risk culture. The 3 lines of defence model implemented by the Company are: ■Risk Owners: The rst line of defence (which includes operational departments ie Investments, Human Resources, Information Technology, Procurement, etc) is provided by front line staff and operational management. The systems, internal controls, control environment, policies and culture developed and implemented by these business units is crucial in anticipating and managing operational and non-nancial risks. ■Risk Oversight: The second line of defence is provided by the risk management function. This function provides the oversight using tools, systems, and advice necessary to support the rst line in identifying, managing and monitoring risks Risk Assurance: ■ The third line of defence is provided by the internal audit function. This function provides a level of independent assurance that the risk management and internal control framework is working as designed. This model is used because it provides a standardised and comprehensive risk management process that claries roles and provides guidance for effective risk management and governance. Risk Culture The Board sets the tone and inuences the risk management culture. All strategic, business and investments decisions are made with due consideration of the related risks and mitigants. The risk culture is fostered by periodic risk register reviews by a cross functioning Risk Coordinators Committee. This initiative reviews the risk registers and status of the mitigating controls. We are further developing a robust Risk Management Training Program especially operational risk management with the objective to foster risk awareness and understanding across the institution to strengthen the risk management. ABOUT US (continued) RISK MANAGEMENT(continued) 19 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY 19Investing SMARTLY 20 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY CHAIRPERSON’S STATEMENT I am pleased to share with you the performance of ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc (ZCCM-IH) as a Company and that of its investee companies during the nancial year ended 31 December 2022. While the incidences of COVID-19 slackened as the year progressed, the effects of the pandemic continued to be felt worldwide. Economies were opening slowly and cautiously with many countries recording low, no or negative growth. The energy crisis experienced world over resulting in increased energy costs coupled with the war in Ukraine put pressure on all sectors of world economies. Copper prices remained reasonably sustained with an average gain of around 5% over 2021 closing at $ 8,372 per tonne as at 31st December 2022. During 2022, we focused our efforts on stabilising operations at our key asset, Mopani Copper Mines Plc (Mopani). In order to sustain Mr. Kakenenwa Muyangwa ZCCM-IH BOARD CHAIRPERSON operations at Mopani, we facilitated working capital mobilisation to a tune of $45 million. We appointed Rothschild & Co, South Africa (Pty) Ltd to help spearhead the process of nding a strategic equity partner to enable Mopani to operate at its optimum level and sustainably. We expect the process of nding an ideal strategic partner will be nalised within 2023. The Company continued to devise alternative and predictable methods of value extraction such as the Company royalty transaction with Kansanshi Mining Plc which was nalised in 2023. Performance at Group level was severely impacted by the underperformance of Mopani resulting in a loss of ZMW 3.79 billion (US$ 222.03 million). On a positive note, Company performance improved with a prot for the year of ZMW 4.26 billion up from ZMW1.68 billion recorded in 2021. The improved performance was due to increased quantum of dividend receipts from investee companies. The overall performance of the Company and its investees was positively affected by the sustained copper prices recorded during the year. Loss before Tax 4,000 2,000 - (2,000) (4,000) (6,000) (8,000) (10,000) (12,000) (14,000) Loss for the year Investee Companies share of prot Dec 2021 Dec 2022 Group Performance - ZMW Million (12,639) (12,573) 1,603 3,005 (3,536) (3,786) 21 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY CHAIRPERSON’S STATEMENT (CONTINUED) The Group’s retained earnings as at 31 December 2022 were negative at ZMW11.94 billion (2021: ZMW8.31s billion negative). The movement in retained earnings is attributable to the recorded Group loss of ZMW3.76 billion (2021: ZMW12.57 billion loss). The Company’s retained earnings remained positive at ZMW7.40 billion (2021: ZMW3.22 billion). Group Company Returned Earnings Dec 2022 Returned Earnings Dec 2021 Returned Earning - ZMW Million (11,936) 7,398 (8,307) 3,224 (15,000) (10,000) (5,000) - 5,000 10,000 22 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY While the performance of Mopani continued to be a source of concern, its value lies in its mineral reserve which when explored, mined and processed will signicantly change the company’s outlook as well as potentially contribute to positive group performance. Our efforts in the coming years will be to ensure the company’s performance improves by undertaking major capital projects which will lead to mine development. We will achieve positive developments through partnership with a suitable equity and technical partner. The operations of Zambia Gold Company Limited continued to be hampered by the suspension of its key asset, Kasenseli mine. I am hopeful that the strategic engagements we have made with key stakeholders will help us reach nality to all the issues leading to our realisation of our objective of creating this company to harness the gold resources that Zambia has. With the price of gold increasing, we believe that the gold sector can help add enormous value to ZCCM-IH’s portfolio and contribute to resource mobilisation primarily for Zambia. In 2020, we announced that we were undertaking group reorganisation with the Industrial Development Corporation (IDC) to ensure that both our entities beneted from strategy alignment. Following consultations, the rationalisation proposal has since been revisited and will not be proceeding as earlier envisaged. However, we will be working to remodel our portfolio to ensure we deliver shareholder value. This remodelling will involve us taking drastic but well thought out decisions so that we have an attractive portfolio which improves shareholder value. We will be communicating details of the actions that your Board will be taking to ensure you are informed as we seek your support. We have continued to undertake steady steps in determining ways we can participate in the mineral value chain. In this regard, we have been conducting research on the feasibility of establishing a precious metals plant. The work accomplished this far, shows that much can be achieved through a well set out mineral value chain. Our Technical and Investments Team is working towards nalising the feasibility study which is expected to be completed in the third quarter of 2023. We recognise the importance of culture in achieving strategic goals. We can only achieve our strategic goals with the right attitude and engaging in a high-performance culture. In 2022, the Company worked with a consultant to review corporate cultural barriers and nd ways of untangling these to promote positivity and improve performance. I am glad that we have since set ourselves very clear targets which will improve overall Company performance by redening our culture to that which we want to be as expected by our stakeholders. We will strive to live the new culture and continue monitoring our performance through this lens. CHAIRPERSON’S STATEMENT (CONTINUED) Strategic Developments Non-performing shareholder loans and advances continues to be one of the major business risks identied. To mitigate this risk, shareholders may wish to know that a rigorous monitoring framework was implemented. This risk and others are regularly under review and various engagements with respective parties being undertaken. Another major business risk that we continued to face in 2022 was the unpredictable nature of dividend income. To mitigate this risk, various strategies have been highlighted in the 2026 SP to enhance income diversication. We are also impacted by growing geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic uncertainty that could potentially impact global growth and affect market volatility and sentiment. The ongoing conict in Ukraine has contributed to inationary pressures for key inputs across our value chain. As a risk mitigation we continue to diversify our portfolio of markets and jurisdictions to reduce exposure to specic geopolitical events Major Company Risks in 2022 23 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY The ZCCM-IH share price on the three stock exchanges closed as follows, with an inclusion of the respective market capitalisation using the issued share capital: During the year, the Company had four (4) changes in terms of exiting non-executive directors, one (1) change in the ofce of the executive director (Chief Executive Ofcer) and four (4) changes for new appointments at different times. I wish to thank the directors that retired from the Board during the year, for the service rendered to the Company. At the same time, I am condent that the new directors appointed in the year, together with the colleagues they joined on the Board will live up to the huge expectations of the shareholders and the nation at large. The mining sector is generally expected to see strong demand in the short to medium term and in particular, copper prices are envisaged to remain current high level going forward. With a focus on mining and mining related activities, ZCCM-IH stands ready to seize the opportunities that lie ahead in the mining sector. The Company will continue to undertake exploration for gold and copper as these minerals are critical to value creation. ZCCM-IH will use a three-pronged strategy in this regard, that is forging strong value enhancing partnerships/joint ventures, invigorate the exploration activities in brown and greeneld areas and a push for new licences for minerals of its interest as identied in the Company’s 2026 Strategic Plan. I once again express gratitude to my fellow Board members for their tenacity and unwavering support in setting strategic direction for the Company. I remain very proud of our achievements and direction we are taking to improve shareholder value. To Management, I wish to reiterate the need for us to work as a team and remain thankful for your commitment and hard work. Importantly, I am grateful to the shareholders for their support rendered to everyone connected to and at ZCCM-IH during the 2022 nancial year.

Being a publicly listed entity, ZCCM-IH Corporate Governance Policies are in line with various codes of conduct required by the regulatory authorities of the stock markets the Company is listed on. The Group continued to operate by enforcing good corporate governance practices contained in Sections 82 to 122 of Part VII of the Companies Act No.10 of 2017 of Zambia, and the Lusaka Securities Exchange (LuSE) Corporate Governance (CG) Code, publicly available on the Company’s website and from the LuSE upon request. The Companies diversity policy is embedded in the Human Resource Policy under the clause titled “Equal Opportunity, Diversity and Positive Action”, which states in part that, “ZCCM-IH will provide equal employment opportunity to the Zambian nationals on the basis of merit without unlawful discrimination on the basis of age, gender, colour, tribe, disability, race or religion”. The Company’s internal controls are implemented amongst others through its Internal Control Policy as approved by the Board in 2019 and incorporates guidance aligned to requirement of the Securities Act of 2016 related to the Company’s internal controls. The Company also maintains a Business Risk Register (BRR) which identies the risks affecting the various aspects of ZCCM-IH strategic and operational areas and how these risks are to be mitigated. The BRR is monitored on a regular basis by Management and the Audit Committee and reported to the Board. Further to this, the Company has formally adopted the OECD principles of Corporate Governance. The separation of powers between the Directors and Management on one hand and the Chairman of the Board and the Chief Executive Ofcer on the other was strictly adhered to. All Directors except the Chief Executive Ofcer on the Board were non-executive during the nancial period. The Board of Directors is committed to sound corporate governance and the management of environmental and social issues. Towards the achievement of this commitment, the Board has continued to put in place appropriate governance policies. This is enshrined in ZCCM-IH’s Strategic Plan for the period 2020 to 2026 by committing to enhancing its Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) adherence. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE 33 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY Forward Front - Mr. Tisa R Chama ZCCM Investments Holdings CTO (Touring KAGEM Emerald Mine - Tuesday, 31 May 2022) 34 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S STATEMENT In 2022 we focused on progressing our strategy and delivering against our four strategic goals to build a stronger ZCCM-IH for the long term. Despite a challenging environment, we achieved a favourable nancial performance at company level. This was due, in part to the strong foundations of our business, its’ world class assets, diversied commodities, and deep industry knowledge that our people possess. At Group level, we recorded a loss arising from the underperformance of Mopani Copper Mines Plc largely due to liquidity challenges. Mopani is a signicant component of the Group, and a resolution to its challenges will remain a key focus area. In as much as we made considerable progress in working towards transforming our business for the future through reshaping our portfolio, simplifying our corporate performance appraisal framework and enhancing our corporate culture, there is lots more to do. Our aim is to continue the positive performance recorded in the past years at company level to lter through to Group level as well. Dr Ndoba J. Vibetti ZCCM-IH CEO STRATEGY Three years into our 2026 Strategic Plan, the early evidence of progress against our set objectives for this period is heartening. For the two-year period, the Company has achieved: income of ZMW7.82 billion; prot of ZMW5.93 billion; average yield of 12%; averaged cost to income ratio of 25%; and implemented a new organisational design to streamline our corporate structure. It gives us condence that we have a truly exciting improvement journey for the remaining years of the strategic plan. In 2022 alone, we managed to maintain operating costs at 18% of total income against a target of 40%; recorded total income of ZMW5.45 billion against a target of ZMW1.2 billion; and increased exploration costs by over 300% from ZMW5.7 million in 2021 to ZMW18.89 million in 2022. This was achievable thanks to our highly capable, diverse, engaged people across ZCCM-IH, who have continued to show tremendous resilience in the face of the multiple challenges from by the external environment. Going forward, our strategy will be informed by a deep analysis of the interplay of global megatrends, explored through the lens of plausible scenarios. These set the context for our industry and underpin our investment choices on how we operate. Our success relies on our ability to strengthen our resilience to the physical, societal and economic effects of various local and global factors while building partnerships and capabilities that will enable us to secure new opportunities. Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Shareholders and investors are becoming more ESG-conscious in their investment behaviours, taking into consideration a range of sustainability themes beyond carbon footprint, including biodiversity, water consumption, waste generation and social-economic impact. This is helping to drive a holistic shift towards increasingly transparent, sustainable and circular value chains in the mining sector. As such, during the year, we embarked on the process to develop our ESG framework. This will set milestones, as well as goals with specied ESG metrics, to be communicated annually to all our stakeholders. Our aspiration is to build a better world for all of our stakeholders. We aim to create social value, which is the positive contribution ZCCM-IH makes to society: our people, partners, the economy, the environment and local communities for the mutual benet of our stakeholders. We view this as fundamental to our long-term success and a competitive advantage that will support growth. Further, we aim to strengthen our resilience to changing market fundamentals and pursue new opportunities and partnerships that help deliver strong returns and growth options for our business and reduce our environmental footprint. Sustainability for us, is integral to how we contribute to social value creation. It is core to our strategy and will sit at the heart of everything we do. 35 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S STATEMENT (CONTINUED) Stakeholder Engagement We are a business committed to regularly engaging with our shareholders. We strongly believe their views make us a better business and we welcome their feedback. We held our rst stakeholder open day during the year, and we intend to regularly meet with our shareholders across the three markets on which we are listed to discuss a range of strategy and governance topics including our approach to environment, social and governance matters. We are passionate about strengthening our relationships with our shareholders, local communities and other partners to incorporate a broad range of views in our decision making. Further, we are committed to contributing to society through engagement and advocacy on important issues, and by supporting targeted development areas to benet the communities where we operate. Building a thriving corporate culture Following the cultural transformation programme we undertook during the year, our focus is on embedding the right culture which is such a critical enabler for achieving our strategic objectives and to creating the future organisation that we all wish to see. More broadly, we are embedding a change in mindset and behaviours throughout the organisation, with the implementation of the RITTE (Respect, Integrity, Teamwork, Transparency, and Efciency) culture being absolutely crucial to driving this change. Achieving culture change will take time, but we are heading in the right direction. Everything we aspire to achieve should be underpinned by our people feeling emotionally safe, empowered, included and respected. This is what led to a review of the company culture to ensure we create a work environment where everyone can be at their best. Changing our culture is key to achieving each of our four objectives. When people feel respected and valued, they feel empowered to be their best selves and bring their best ideas. One of the key learnings from the past few years is that how we achieve our strategy is just as important as what we achieve. As our strategy has evolved, so has the need for an appropriate culture to better support it. By driving delivery of our key objectives in a manner consistent with our values and behaviours and which advance our culture change agenda, we are condent that we will see great progress towards our strategic ambitions. Seizing opportunities The shift to electric vehicles and renewable energy will require more copper, nickel, lithium, manganese among others, to decarbonise society, but developing new mines is becoming more challenging. We are therefore strategically thinking long term to harness the right opportunities, while also keeping the shorter-term initiatives operational. In this regard, in 2022 we increased exploration investment and expenditure with a view to develop new mines in the future. Looking Ahead Being a mining focused investment holding company, we want to have a leaner, more agile and efcient ZCCM-IH, with a portfolio aligned to the global megatrends, and better positioned to grow value. By diversifying our commodity portfolio to include critical minerals, we are actively participating within our social contract required for a decarbonised world. As we enter 2023, we will need to maintain a keen eye on near-term opportunities and risks, while always creating sufcient time and space to capture key strategic opportunities as they emerge for the longer term. Without doubt, there is considerable work ahead – to improve the consistency of our performance, to anticipate and respond to a shifting competitive landscape, to create a safe and empowering culture, and to continue to strengthen our partnerships. But as we all look to the future, we have a clear purpose, an ambitious strategy, and I am condent that we have all of the right ingredients in place – best people in the industry, world-class assets, diversied commodity portfolio, strong balance sheet and strategic partnerships. Acknowledgement Let me end by thanking the management team and all the employees who delivered for the company and its shareholders during the year.

The net loss for the year under review was ZMW5.05 billion (US$296.36 million), (2021:ZMW76.82 billion prot (US$3.90 billion)). During the year under review, MCM produced a total of 72,694 tonnes of nished copper (2021: 87,618 tonnes). The smelter underwent a 45-day shutdown from August 2022 to September 2022 for maintenance, refurbishment of critical components and replacement of refractory bricks. The maintenance works set up the smelter to operate for another two-year campaign. ZCCM-IH engaged Rothschild & Co, a globally renowned investment bank, in June 2022 to assist with the strategic review of Mopani for the purposes of sustainability, expansion and growth. Rothschild & Co undertaking the assessment in two phases. Under Phase 1, Rothschild & Co. will undertake the restructuring of Mopani in a phased approach with assistance from appropriate legal and technical advisors to maintain Mopani as a going concern and build resilience. Under Phase 2, Rothschild & Co will assist ZCCM-IH in nding a Strategic Equity Partner. During the year under review, ZCCM-IH continued to support MCM by providing Corporate Guarantee of up to US$45 million to various banks for the provision of Mopani’s working capital facilities from various banks. There were no dividends declared during the period under review (December 2021: Nil). 2 Zambia Gold Company Limited (ZGC) Zambia Gold Company Limited (ZGC) reported revenue of ZMW 0.03 million (2021: ZMW 68.29 million) for the year ended 31 December 2022. During the period under review, no Gold sales were made during the year (2021: 62.02 Kg) due to the suspension of mining activities at Kasenseli Gold Mine by the Mines Safety Department (MSD). Net loss recorded for the period was ZMW 51.57 million (2021: net loss of ZMW 0.59 million). For the year under review, ZGC did not produce any gold due to the suspension of mining activities at Kasenseli which is the main source of gold production against a budget of 339.3 kg. ZGC has formulated an action plan to address the issues raised by MSD which were conditions set for lifting the suspension. ZGC has also engaged key stakeholders to facilitate and accelerate the opening of the Mine. The action plan has since been completed and submitted to key stakeholders. ZGC shall continue conducting exploration activities on its other licences and partnership with third party licence holders. ZGC launched the value addition business model in line with its strategic mandate of developing the gold sub-sector.

OPERATIONS REPORT PORTFOLIO PERFORMANCE REVIEW SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES 38 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY S/N PORTFOLIO COMPANY 2022 PERFORMANCE REVIEW ASubsidiary Companies 3 Limestone Resources Limited (LRL)/ Ndola Lime Company Limited Limestone Resources Limited (LRL) was barely operational for the most part of the year as both primary kilns (VK1 and VK2) were not functional. The collapse of refractory bricks on VK1 in 2021 had not yet been resolved while the historical fuel system challenges on VK2 were only resolved in July 2022. These works included multiple modications to have the kiln operate using coal as the fuel, a much cheaper commodity than Heavy Fuel Oil in the original design. ZCCM-IH provided working capital funding to ignite and commission the kiln in August 2022 and the Kiln was red up in September 2022. Even though the kiln is operational, it takes several months to attain stability in quality and production as different operating parameters are monitored and observed, and adjustments made accordingly. Further, LRL was not adequately capitalised for a long time and therefore continued to experience underperformance of its operating plant and equipment. ZCCM-IH continued to support the Company for its turnaround strategies. As a result of only being productive for the last 3 months of the year, LRL’s performance was substantially impacted, recording revenue of only ZMW26.8 million (2021: ZMW 119 million). The loss for the year was ZMW90.78 million (2021: ZMW39.7 million). There were no dividends declared during the period under review (December 2021: Nil) 4Investrust Bank PLC Investrust generated revenue of ZMW 150.8 million(2021: ZMW170.7 million) and net loss for the year was ZMW2.6 million (2021: ZMW15.1 million in prot). For the twelve-month period ended 31st December 2022, the Bank’s nancial performance exhibited signs of improvement despite the inadequate capital. The Bank recorded a decline in bottom line income compared to the prior period. The decline in bank performance was largely attributed to the Bank’s inadequate capital which had a negative ripple effect on its ability to make advances and loans, attract deposits and invest in new IT infrastructure. ZCCM-IH, alongside other key stakeholders in Investrust, continued to strategize on the best possible option to recapitalise the Bank in order to make it competitive and enable it to play its rightful role in the Zambian nancial sector. The Bank’s share price on the Lusaka Securities Exchange closed the period under review at ZMW25 (2021: ZMW15). There were no dividends declared during the period under review (December 2021: Nil). 5 Misenge Environmental and Technical Services Limited (METS) Misenge Environmental and Technical Services Limited (METS) generated a total of ZMW 4.93 million in revenue for the year ended 31st December 2022 (2021: ZMW17.11 million). METS reported a net loss of ZMW4.39 million (2021: ZMW2.51 million prot) During the period under review, METS continued the implementation of its Strategic Turnaround and Marketing Plan. ZCCM-IH capitalised the company with ZMW45.323 million during the year. Management also made steady efforts to raise capital for equipment and develop non-ZCCM-IH business relationships for the formation of strategic alliances and partnerships in the provision of environmental services.

Kabundi Resources Limited (KRL) began its own mining operations to try and boost revenues in addition to the existing royalty arrangement that had been in place since inception. A total of 26,133 tonnes of manganese was produced during the year ended 31st December 2022. In the period under review, Kabundi made progress with phase 2 which included starting own mining and conducting additional exploration activities. This was made possible through additional funding that was provided by the shareholders. During the period under review KRL continued its mining activities on Three (3) sites namely “Kabundi A & B” and also in Ntenge where KRL had acquired another mining license. Going forward, the Company’s focus will be to acquire mining equipment and further Kabundi paid management fees totalling ZMW 0.9 million to ZCCM-IH in the period under review.

During the period under review, MCL continued to experience liquidity challenges because of delayed payments from ZESCO which stood at ZMW10.97 billion (US$606.79 million) as 31st December 2022. The Company undertook semi-annual maintenance shut down and forced shut down of unit 1 of the 150 MW thermal power units between 25 May 2022 and 7 June 2022. Nevertheless, plant availability was more than 85% for each of the rst nine months of FY2022- 2023.The Company has a positive outlook in the medium to long term after the Arbitral Tribunal issued the Consent Award to MCL on 13 December 2022, which will see ZESCO pay US$447 million to MCL by 31 August 2023. There were no dividends declared during the year under review (2021: Nil). Arbitration Proceedings against ZESCO The Arbitral Tribunal issued the Consent Award on 13th December 2022.

The settlement has been recorded in the form of an enforceable nal consent award signed and issued by the Arbitral Tribunal on 14th December 2022. The issuance of the nal consent award ended the arbitration. The Consent Arbitral Award has since been registered in the High Court of Zambia for any further course of action that the claimants could pursue The Consent Award provides that from the total unpaid arrears under the PPA and TA as at 31st October 2022 of US$ 578.06 million, ZESCO will pay to MCL the Agreed Settlement Amount of US$447.56 million after MCL agreed to give ZESCO a discount of US$60 million on the interest portion of the arrears and ZESCO agreed to take on the responsibility of the VAT due on the total arrears amounting to US$70.5 million.

ASSOCIATE COMPANIES OPERATIONS REPORT (CONTINUED) 41 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY S/N PORTFOLIO COMPANY 2022 PERFORMANCE REVIEW BAssociate Companies 11 Konkola Copper Mines Plc (KCM) KCM’s challenges continued during the year as the fundamental problems surrounding the underdevelopment of the Konkola Deep Mining Project (KDMP) remained unresolved, resulting in the Company reporting low production from own sources and therefore having to rely on third- party copper concentrates to feed its Smelter. As a result, nished copper production was also negatively impacted. Due to the legal circumstances surrounding the mine, KCM continued to be under the control of the Provisional Liquidator. There were no dividends declared during the year under review (2021: Nil). 12 Kansanshi Mining Plc (Kansanshi) 2022 was an operationally challenging year for Kansanshi on two main fronts, geology and hydrology. As the mine has gone deeper and the oxides are depleted, grades have deteriorated from an average of 1.0% in 2021 to 0.6% through 2022. This has signicantly affected recoveries of both copper and gold. Similarly, mining at depth has increased water levels in the pit at a faster than anticipated rate, which also slowed down production. The challenges above resulted in substantial production declines. Copper produced was 146,282 tonnes, a sharp drop from 202,159 tonnes in 2021. Similarly, gold for the year was 109,617 ounces, declining from 128,199 ounces in 2021. For the year ended 31 December 2022, Kansanshi recorded revenue of ZMW25.98 billion (US$1.52 billion)(2021: ZMW39.57 billion (US$2.01 billion)). Net prot over the period also substantially reduced to ZMW2.62 billion (US$153.93 million) from ZMW12.09 billion (US$614.26 million) in 2021. The S3 expansion, which involves the setting up of an additional brand-new concentrator to address the challenge of the depleting oxides that have led to a reduction in ore grades and ultimately production volumes as the mine goes deeper and transitions into a predominantly sulphide mine from an oxide mine is scheduled to commence in 2023. The new concentrator will ensure that the mine has sufcient capacity to process additional lower grade ore to produce desired copper and gold production volumes. On 1st December 2022, ZCCM-IH and First Quantum Minerals reached an agreement where some of ZCCM-IH’s dividend rights would be converted to a 3.1% gross revenue life of mine royalty. The transaction is subject to the fullment of several conditions, including shareholder approval. It is expected to be completed in the rst quarter of 2023. Dividends declared and paid during the year ended 31 December 2022 amounted to US$1.27 billion (2021: US$184 million). 13 Consolidated Gold Company of Zambia Limited (CGCZ) Consolidated Gold Company of Zambia Limited (CGCZ) is a joint venture partnership between ZCCM-IH (45%) and Karma Mining Services and Rural Development (55%). Incorporated in the year 2020, this Special Purpose Vehicle is focused on developing a gold processing and trading hub in Zambia. During the year ended 31 December 2022, the Company produced 50.7kg (2021: 46.6kg) of gold majority of which was sold to Zambia Gold Company. Income for the year ended 31 December 2022 was ZMW50.81 million (2021: loss of ZMW 44.97 million). CGCZ recorded a loss for the year of ZMW8.76 million (2021: -ZMW10.22 million). Due to persistent lack of prots as a result of the Company’s lack of control of the supply of gold feedstock, the ZCCM-IH Board approved a divestment from CGCZ. ZCCM-IH will still recover its initial investment of US$1.568 million over a period of three years.

The Bulk Supply Agreement between CEC and ZESCO that expired on 31 March 2020 was renewed after the year end on 7 April 2022. This delay negatively impacted the business’ margins and performance. Nonetheless, CEC proved to be a resilient business and continued to thrive and diversify its operations in spite of the challenges faced. Further, CEC successfully contested Statutory Instrument (SI) No.57 of 2020 that declared its transmission and distribution lines as common carrier. The declaration was quashed by the high court and replaced by SI No. 24 of 2021. The court did not pronounce itself on the said SI, as the new government took the decision to repeal the SI No. 24 of 2021. This action has fully restored CEC’s commercial rights over it’s own infrastructure. For the year under review, the CEC share price opened at ZMW 1.10 per share and closed at ZMW 1.95. Based on the period-to- 30 September 2021 performance, CEC management did not budget for any dividend payment. However due to unexpected improvements in nancial performance.

ASSOCIATE COMPANIES (CONTINUED) OTHER INVESTEE COMPANIES OPERATIONS REPORT (CONTINUED) 44 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY CLIMATE RELATED FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES The ZCCM-IH Plc’s Board remains committed to the Company’s progress in implementing our approach to climate change which aligns with our broader approach to responsible mining. Alongside our Annual Report, we are providing a summary report on approach and contribution to sustainable and responsible mining. The Board recognizes the importance of maintaining a strategy that remains resilient to the risks and opportunities of the evolving energy transition and encourages to continue our focus on progressing towards achieving reduced net emissions in future. These potential initiatives/opportunities range from renewable power purchases and on-site renewable power generation, through to energy storage systems, operational efciency initiatives and electrication. Our carbon abatement initiatives have also advanced and during the period 2023 to the end of 2026, our planning includes partnering with stakeholders to set up at least one solar power plant to supply power to one of our mines. Once this is successfully set up, we intend to execute a Joint Venture energy investment vehicle with one of our stakeholders and to develop a large-scale renewable energy infrastructure to service the Copperbelt mining and industrial sectors. This initiative addresses the non-reliability of power supply in the Zambian copper belt area (power outage during dry seasons and costs) and reduces GHG emissions which will progressively position the Zambian mining sector, not only as a government revenues contributor, but also as sustainable source of energy. As the world shifts from fossil fuels to other sources of energy and governments and consumers continue to embrace renewable energy, energy storage, electric vehicles and other decarbonising technologies, demand for the rened metals that enable these transitions is expected to keep growing. It is anticipated that the energy transition will be non-linear across time and geography. The global transition from fossil fuels to battery power will require metals such as copper, nickel, cobalt, vanadium, and zinc. The ZCCM-IH Plc 2023 – 2026 revised strategic plan recognises the low-cost transition metals, hence providing resources that will increase the portfolio of these metals which is well positioned to provide the commodities important to the decarbonisation of the global economy. Across our business, we are prioritising investment in metals that support the low-carbon transition, we are cognisant of the fact that these commodities will need to be available in large amounts for the transition to progress. The cumulative copper decit by 2030 is expected to increase, illustrating the opportunity for ZCCM-IH Plc’s copper business. The current level of mining sources needs to increase to take advantage of the expected increase in demand, the 2023 -2026 strategic plan has also set aside resources for exploration activities inclusive of the low carbon minerals which points to our contribution to the energy transition necessary for global decarbonisation. KEY DRIVERS OF OUR ENVIRONMENTAL APPROACH Global Limit to Temperature Rise: Efforts to limit global temperature rises will impact fossil fuel demand increasing the momentum to decarbonise the global economy as nations are increasingly coordinating efforts aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions, including IEA’s target of net zero emissions by the end of 2050. The Paris Agreement aims to hold the increase of global average temperatures to well below 2°C above pre- industrial levels and to pursue efforts to limit temperature increase to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. Higher commodity prices and resource scarcity increase the likelihood of mineral portfolio concentration: Widespread adoption of renewable energy sources as a means of decarbonising energy supply creates signicant new demand for the current key enabling commodities, including copper, nickel, and cobalt. The quantum of potential new demand is generally of a size that is large relative to the current annual production and known dened global resources of that commodity. 45 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY CLIMATE RELATED FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES (continued) Demand for the commodities we produce: Decarbonisation demand, population growth and industrialisation of developing economies has an impact on commodity demand. The industrialisation and urbanisation of developing economies over almost two decades has driven signicant growth in commodity demand. China’s rapid growth over this period now means that it accounts for up to half of global demand for many commodities. All potential decarbonisation pathways require signicantly more non-fossil fuel commodities. OUR RESPONSE TO THESE DRIVERS We recognise our responsibility to contribute to the global effort to achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement by decarbonising our own operational footprint. We believe that our contribution should take a holistic approach and have considered our commitment through Joint Venture energy investment vehicles with one of our stakeholders and to develop a large-scale renewable energy infrastructure to service the Copperbelt mining and industrial sectors. Energy transition metals/commodities such as copper, nickel, cobalt, zinc, and vanadium could become substantially more important given their role in the technologies / infrastructure that underpin low or no carbon energy sources. We are prioritising exploration activities towards these transition metals and diversication of our portfolio of metals, is likely to mitigate the nancial impact of a negative demand shift in the event of substitution of a particular commodity. Our market research teams continue to assess the underlying demand for our commodities as well as the new materials that could impact current renewable technology solutions. 46 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY Over the last ve years, ESG and sustainability performance have moved to mainstream thinking for investors and stakeholders. The global paradigm shift towards this way of thinking about value creation and a greater than ever focus on organisational accountability, disclosure and transparency of environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance, is reshaping the mining landscape. This in turn is demanding a shift change from mere reporting practices to rmly embedding these issues into organisational culture, strategy and process. In this regard, ZCCM-IH is repositioning to align itself in this direction in order to create value and improve lives through sustainable and responsible investments by responsibly managing our environment, undertaking social investments and good governance practices. We intend to start providing updates on our economic, health and safety, environmental and social issues, activities and performance that are of greatest interest, importance and impact to our internal and external stakeholders on local, regional and global levels. ZCCM-IH is focused on delivering sustainable value for our people, all stakeholders and host communities, now and in the future. Delivering on our commitments is a key pillar of our business strategy. We believe the protection of the health and wellbeing of our people, environmental stewardship and being a catalyst for sustainable economic empowerment in our host communities are not just the right things to do, they create value for our business and all our stakeholders. We believe that ESG has become the platform and criteria to evaluate and communicate broadly about sustainability practices, which is a business imperative and not just a nice thing to do. For us we consider that ESG is a more integrated and holistic perspective on a company’s performance that not only encompasses but goes well beyond corporate responsibility. As such, we will endeavour to align the interest of shareholders and other stakeholders in a way we have never done historically. Guided by ESG, we will care about what the company is doing, about the footprint it leaves locally and how it is discharging the responsibilities of contractors, consultants, and others it employs. Through this lens, the decisions of the company will be geared to support nancial resiliency as well as create sustainable value for the business and all its stakeholders. The chart below shows our four main objectives in this regard: SUSTAINABILITY REPORT Our Approach ZCCM-IH ESG Corporate Strategies key objectives Business resilience Growth Risk mitigation Long term value creation opportunities 47 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY As we look to fully integrate ESG strategy in all we do, we resolutely believe that we must deliver long-term value to all stakeholders, not just shareholders.

In carrying out this, we will: ■ Establish environmental, social, health and safety management systems in line with international and industry best practice that help us identify and manage signicant business risks and opportunities. ■ Report on our performance annually using the relevant ESG frameworks for sustainability reporting. ■Train our employees and contractors about their responsibilities for ensuring the effective implementation of the ESG activities. ■ Conduct periodic reviews of our performance against these activities to ensure it addresses the needs of our host communities in which we operate, and to ensure we full our commitments. The ESG Policy and strategy being nalised will be applicable to the entire workforce of ZCCM-IH and its subsidiaries. We prioritise human capital The long-term sustainability of our rm is heavily dependent on our people. We make a deliberate effort to unify culture, encourage innovation, ensure that we are developing, retaining, and recruiting the best talent, align employee incentives and risk taking with those of the rm, and to incorporate inclusion and diversity into all levels of our business. We are also committed to protecting human rights, which we do through policies that seek to provide equal treatment and are dedicated to providing a safe and healthy working environment for all employees. SUSTAINABILITY REPORT (continued) 48 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY Social sustainability Pursuant to our commitment to our stakeholders, ZCCM-IH makes concerted investments in the host communities where we operate (as a company, as a Group and our investee associates), through our community enhancement initiatives, local procurement opportunities and the stakeholder agreements concluded with our host governments, host communities, local entrepreneurs and employees among others. Long term We appreciate the long-term, shared value yielded by sustainable development, as well as the organisational benets, which include risk reduction, greater shareholder demand, improved valuation, and an advantageous cost of capital. We therefore welcome the opportunity to embrace exemplary ESG practices as an integral part of our culture, core purpose and strategy. We recognize that maintaining our social license to operate is dependent upon our ability to honour our commitments and improve our ESG integration and performance. We perceive good governance as a competitive advantage, and we strive to maintain the highest standards of ethics, corporate governance, honesty, and accountability in all that we do. We believe that the foundations of corporate citizenship and respect for human rights are essential drivers of the pursuit of the underlying business objective of building shared value. As such, we embrace an intrinsic sense of respect for fundamental human rights, and afrm our commitment to prevent, mitigate and remediate negative human rights impacts. We are committed to aligning our operations with universal principles on human rights, labour, environment, and anti-corruption, and to take actions that advance societal goals. We are determined to build our repute that showcases and establishes ZCCM-IH as a leading example of responsible environmental stewardship, transformative social performance, and ethical, transparent governance in Zambia in the mining space. ZCCM-IH will strive to push the envelope of our ESG agenda, reafrm our commitment to all our stakeholders and look forward to a bright future of shared prosperity. Our aim is to take action to contribute to a more equitable, nancially resilient future for all. ZCCM-IH’s environmental related activities continued to be managed through the wholly owned subsidiary, Misenge Environmental and Technical Services Limited (METS). Some of the major activities undertaken by METS during the year included the following: Routine Radiation Surveillance of the Radiation Waste Storage Building (RWSB) and the Uranium Tailings Engineered Disposal Cell (UTEDC) continued throughout the year. This is a statutory requirement by the Radiation Protection Authority to ensure compliance. Routine monitoring of environmental liabilities in Chingola (OB4, OB18, OB19, Mimbula Overburden Dumps), Kitwe (OB53) on the Copperbelt Province and Kabwe (Open Pit No, 5 and 6) in Central Province continued throughout the year. Routine monitoring of environmental liabilities in Mufulira district on the Copperbelt Province were discontinued in March 2020 following the transfer of TD8 and TD10 to the Ministry of Mines and Minerals Development. Monitoring of children affected by lead poisoning continued through the Integrated Case Management (ICM) activities in Kabwe. This included medical reviews and where necessary clinical assessment at clinics in Makululu, Kasanda and Chowa Health Centres. Other activities involved home visitations and environmental assessments at homes in the lead affected areas to investigate the causes of persistently high lead levels in blood in some children. SUSTAINABILITY REPORT (continued) 49 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY SUSTAINABILITY REPORT (continued) Sampling of underground water efuent from the Ore Shaft at the former ZCCM Ltd Kabwe Mine to test for statutory compliance in terms of water quality continued during the period under review. All parameters were found to be in compliance to ZEMA industrial water efuent standards. During the period review, security surveillance at the Radioactive Waste Storage Building in Kalulushi continued. ZCCM-IH installed three additional cameras in a bid to improve on technological security in order to deter unauthorised personnel entry and eliminate threats to national and global security. METS engaged the contractor in charge of the security at the RWSB to ensure that the newly installed cameras were congured to the existing system to operationalize them. However, the recommendation from the contractor engaged by Golden Security Services (GSS) of South America is that ZCCM-IH should have its own system to run the cameras. Following the submission of the Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) implementation reports to ZEMA for review and clearance in 2021, ZEMA expressed satisfaction with the implementation of the Kabundi RAP. However, the Agency expressed concern on the two Project Affected Persons (PAPs) who were yet to be resettled and compensated (one could not be identied and the other one was sitting on state land). ZEMA had directed that during the period under review, ZCCM-IH should ensure that the two PAPs were compensated. ZCCM-IH made every effort and one PAP was located and compensated while the other one could still not be found despite the compensation package being ready. 50 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc Investing SMARTLY The Companies Act, 2017 of Zambia requires the Directors to prepare the consolidated and separate annual nancial statements for each nancial year that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Group and Company as at the end of the nancial year and of its nancial performance. It also requires the Directors to ensure that the Group and Company keeps proper accounting records that disclose, with reasonable accuracy, the nancial position of the Group and Company. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Group and Company. The Directors are further required to ensure the Group and Company adheres to the corporate governance principles or practices contained in Sections 82 to 122 of Part VII of the Companies Act, 2017 of Zambia.

The Directors further accept responsibility for the maintenance of accounting records that may be relied upon in the preparation of consolidated and separate annual nancial statements, and for such internal controls as the Directors determine necessary to enable the preparation of the consolidated and separate annual nancial statements that are free from material misstatement whether due to fraud or error. The Directors are of the opinion that the consolidated and separate annual nancial statements set out on pages 56 to 183 give a true and fair view of the state of the nancial affairs of the Group and Company and of its nancial performance in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB and the requirements of the Companies Act, 2017 of Zambia. The Directors further report that they have implemented and further adhered to the corporate governance principles or practices contained in Sections 82 to 122 of Part VII of the Companies Act, 2017 of Zambia. We draw your attention to Note 4a of these nancials which indicate that during the year ended 31 December 2022, the Group made a loss for the year of ZMW3,785 million (2021: loss for the year ofZMW12,573 million). As of 31 December 2022, the Group had accumulated loss of ZMW11,936 million (2021: retained loss of ZMW8,307 million).

In addition, the majority of the Group’s non-current liabilities relate to borrowings of Mopani. The loan is guaranteed by ZCCM-IH and if Mopani fails to pay back the loan, ZCCM-IH would be required to full the loan obligations refer to note 4 (a) for details. These events or conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast signicant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. There was no material non- compliance matter identied and the Group and Company are able to pay its liabilities as when the fail due . Therefore, the Directors consider the going concern basis of preparation to be appropriate for at least twelve months from the date of these annual nancial statements. Other than the above, nothing has come to the attention of the Directors to indicate that the Group and Company will not remain a going concern for at least twelve months from the date of these annual nancial statements.

Box 30942, Lusaka, Zambia T: +260 (0) 211 334000, F: +260 (0) 211 256474, www.pwc.com/zm A list of Partners is available from the address above Independent auditor’s report , Report on the audit of the Consolidated and separate annual financial statements Our Opinion In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements of ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc(the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (together the “Group”) give a true and fair view of the consolidated financial position of the Group as at December 31, 2022, and its consolidated financial performance and its consolidated cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and the requirements of the Companies Act, 2017 of Zambia and the Securities Act, 2016 of Zambia. What we have audited ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc’s consolidated and separate annual financial statements on pages 56 to 183 comprise: ● the consolidated and separate statements of financial position as at 31 December 2022; ● the consolidated and separate statements of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the year then ended; ● the consolidated and separate statements of changes in equity for the year then ended; ● the consolidated and separate statements of cash flows for the year then ended; and ● the notes to the consolidated and separate annual financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated and separate annual financial statements section of our report. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. Independence We are independent of the Group and Company in accordance with the International Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (including International Independence Standards) issued by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA Code). We have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the IESBA Code. 52 REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Report on the audit of the Consolidated and separate annual financial statements (continued) Material Uncertainty Relating to Going Concern We draw attention to note 4a in the annual consolidated financial statements, which indicate that the Group incurred a loss before tax of ZMW3.5 billion during the year ended 31 December 2022 and, as of that date, the Group had accumulated losses of ZMW 11.9 billion. Furthermore, as stated in Note 4a, the group’s most significant subsidiary has operating losses and needs funding to meet working capital and core capital requirements. These events or conditions, along with other matters as set forth in Note 4a, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter. Key audit matters Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the consolidated and separate annual financial statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the consolidated and separate annual financial statements as a whole, and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters. Key audit matter How our audit addressed the key audit matter Valuation of non current assets (Property, plant and equipment, Investment in associates and financial assets) Refer to Note 4: Use of estimates and judgements, Note 17: Property, plant and equipment, Note 24 (d): Valuation of investment in associates, and Note 25: Financial instruments at fair value through profit and loss The Group’s property, plant and equipment (PP&E) carrying value was ZMW12.4 billion as of 31 December 2022 covering multiple cash generating units (CGUs) of the Group. Furthermore, investments in associates amounting to ZMW15.1 billion stated in the Company’s financial statements. The above stated balances represented 78% of the total non-current assets. We considered this a key audit matter due to the significance of the balances stated above and subjectivity in applying procedures to evaluate audit evidence relating to the significant judgments made by management in its assessment of indicators of impairment. We evaluated management’s assessment of indicators of impairment, which included the following: ● We held discussions with management on the Life of Mine Models (LOM) to understand how management views the technological changes, efficiency impact, and regulatory changes (Taxes and Electricity), and related impact; ● Assessed changes in LOM commodity prices and discount rates, by comparing to external market and industry data and changes in production, operating costs and capital expenditures by considering the current and past performance of the CGUs and evidence obtained in other areas of the audit, as applicable; ● Assessed the competence of management's experts used in reviewing the LOM model by checking their independence, membership status and level of qualification; ● Assessed the completeness of external or internal factors that could be considered as indicators of impairment of the Company’s PP&E, by considering evidence obtained in other areas of the audit. ● For investments valued using the market approach, we agreed the prices of the listed shares to the Lusaka Securities Exchange lists. ● For investments in associates we do not directly audit, we engaged their auditors and reviewed their work papers. ● We reviewed the disclosures made on the assumptions and the sensitivities which draw attention to the more significant areas of judgment sensitive to change. 53 REPORT ON THE AUDIT OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Report on the audit of the consolidated and separate annual financial statements (continued) Other information The Directors are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the Annual Report but does not include the consolidated and separate annual financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the consolidated and separate annual financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. In connection with our audit of the consolidated and separate annual financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information identified above and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the consolidated and separate annual financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Responsibilities of the Directors for the consolidated and separate annual financial statements The Directors are responsible for the preparation of the consolidated and separate annual financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB and the requirements of the Companies Act, 2017 of Zambia and the Securities Act, 2016 of Zambia, and for such internal control as the Directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated and separate annual financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the consolidated and separate annual financial statements, the Directors are responsible for assessing the Group’s and Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Directors either intend to liquidate the consolidated and separate or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. The Directors are responsible for overseeing the Group’s and Company’s financial reporting process. Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated and separate annual financial statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated and separate annual financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these consolidated and separate annual financial statements. As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also: ● Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. 54 Report on the audit of the consolidated and separate annual financial statements (continued) ● Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Group’s and Company ’s internal control. ● Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the Directors. ● Conclude on the appropriateness of the Directors’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Group’s and Company ’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the consolidated and separate annual financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may cause the consolidated and separate to cease to continue as a going concern. ● Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the consolidated and separate annual financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the consolidated and separate annual financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation. ● Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within the Group to express an opinion on the Group annual financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the Group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion. We communicate with the Directors regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit. We also provide the Board of Directors with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, actions taken to eliminate threats or safeguards applied. From the matters communicated with the Board of Directors, we determine those matters that were of most significance in the audit of the consolidated and separate annual financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.

Reporting entity ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc (the “Company” or “ZCCM – IH”) is domiciled in Zambia. The Company’s registered ofce is at Stand No. 16806, Alick Nkhata Road, Mass Media Complex Area, P.O Box 30048, Lusaka. These consolidated annual nancial statements comprise the Company, its subsidiaries and investments in associates (together referred to as the ‘Group’). The principal activity of the Company is to manage the Zambian Government’s stake in the mining sector, as the Zambian Government through the Industrial Development Corporation (IDC), is the principal shareholder of the Company. The Company’s shares are listed on the Lusaka Securities Exchange (LuSE), the London Stock Exchange and Euronext. 2. Basis of preparation The Consolidated annual nancial statements are prepared in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The measurement basis applied is the historical cost basis, except where otherwise stated in the accounting policies below. The Consolidated annual nancial statements are presented in Zambian Kwacha (ZMW), rounded to the nearest thousand. In accordance with the Companies Act, 2017 of Zambia, the annual nancial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 have been approved for issue by the Directors. Reference to “annual nancial statements” in this report refers to the Consolidated annual nancial statements. The preparation of Consolidated annual nancial statements in conformity with IFRS requires the use of estimates and assumptions. It also requires the Directors to exercise judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies. The areas involving higher degree of judgement or complexity, or where assumptions and estimates are signicant to the Consolidated annual nancial statements are disclosed in Note 4. 3. Functional and presentation currency These Group and Company annual nancial statements are presented in Zambian Kwacha. The functional currency for the Company is Zambian Kwacha. All amounts presented in Kwacha have been rounded to the nearest thousand, unless otherwise indicated. Several of the Company’s equity investments prepare nancial statements in US Dollars, which is their functional currency, due to the nature of the industry in which they operate. This has resulted in a foreign currency translation reserve at the consolidated level. More detail is included in note 23 and 24. 4. Use of estimates and judgements In preparing these nancial statements, management has made judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of the Group’s and Company’s accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to estimates are recognised prospectively. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS in thousands of Kwacha ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 66 Investing SMARTLY a. Judgements Information about judgements made in applying accounting policies that have the most signicant effects on the amounts recognised in the consolidated and separate nancial statements are included in: • Note 17 – impairment of property, plant and equipment. In assessing impairment of property, plant and equipment management estimates the recoverable amount of each asset or cash generating unit based on expected future cash ows and uses an interest rate to discount them. Estimation uncertainty relates to assumptions about future operating results and the determination of a suitable discount rate. Assets amounting to ZMW 339,000 were impaired during the year. At 31 December 2022, the Group recorded the equity value of ZMW7.9 billion (2021: ZMW12.8 billion) which is higher than the market value of ZMW 5.7 billion (2021: ZMW 5.7 billion). Management has determined that the disparity in value between the recorded equity and the market value is not indicative of the impairment of Group or company assets. Further management has assessed that the stock market is still growing with limited market activity therefore not reective of the Company or Group value. • Going Concern Assumption These nancial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. During the year ended 31 December 2022, the Group made a loss after tax of ZMW3.79 billion (2021: ZMW12.57 billion). As of 31 December 2022, the Group had accumulated loss of ZMW11.94 billion (2021: ZMW8.31 billion). As of that date the groups current assets exceeded current liabilities by ZMW1.33 billion (2021: ZMW2.07 billion) and total assets exceeded total liabilities by ZMW7.91 billion (2021: 12.81 billion. Furthermore, Mopani Copper Mines Plc (“MCM” or “Mopani”), the group’s most signicant subsidiary has material uncertainty on going concern on account of operating losses and the need for funding to meet working capital and core capital requirements. In addition, the majority of the Group’s non-current liabilities relate to borrowings of Mopani. The loan is guaranteed by ZCCM-IH and in the event that Mopani fails to pay back the loan, ZCCM-IH would be required to full the loan obligations. Currently, Mopani has been servicing the facility in line with the repayment as set out under note 35 of the report. There are no compliance issues identied These events or conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast signicant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Directors consider the going concern basis of preparation to be appropriate based on the mitigating factors below: Mitigating factors • ZCCM-IH has secured working capital funding for Mopani amounting to K950 million (US$ 43 million) from various nancial institutions. • Management’s recent change of shareholder agreements in 2022 with certain investee companies i.e., Kansanshi Mining PLC, from dividend model to royalty model. This agreement is expected to result into more cashows for the group, at an annual average receipts of ZMW1.06 billion (US$48 million), spanning over a 25 year estimated life of mine from 2021. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 4. Use of estimates and judgements ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 67Investing SMARTLY • The management and Board of ZCCM-IH have been working with a team of consultants, Rothschild & Co., South Africa (Pty) Ltd (“Rothschild & Co.”) to assist ZCCM-IH with the strategic review of Mopani Copper Mines Plc (“MCM” or “Mopani”) to ensure its sustainability and continued development. In 2011, Mopani embarked on expansion projects to sink new deeper, higher capacity and economical shafts to access the resource in the deep areas that would otherwise not have been easily and economically available. These projects are at various stages of completion and are expected to increase the Life of Mine (LOM) by at least 25 years. • The Group has engaged consultants to support the process of raising capital of ZMW 7.72 billion (US$ 350million) to complete the expansion projects and so far the work is in advanced stages and as of July 2023, ZCCM-IH the ultimate parent entity, the Zambian Government indicated to have shortlisted potential bidders and aim to complete the selection process in 2023. Once the expansion projects are completed, the Group will be able to ramp up its production and achieve protable, efcient, and sustainable operations which will result in the Group recording prots by 2026 to 2028, if copper prices range between US$6,500 and US$8,400 per tonne. Copper prices as at December 2022 was US$ 8,386 per tonne. The Directors have therefore formed a judgement that the Going concern assumptions remains applicable to the Group and Company for at least 12 months from the signing date of the nancial statements.. This basis assumes that the funds will be available to nance future operations, and that the realisation of the assets and settlement of liabilities, contingent obligations and commitments will occur in the ordinary course of the business. • Note 22 – Assets held for sale. Management has continued to classify Investrust Bank Plc and Mushe Milling as entities held for sale despite the sale not happening within 12 months from the date they were classied as held for sale in 2020. Following the change of government, there was a shift in IDC’s strategy which contributed to the restructuring and reorganization deal not to go through despite earlier agreements which indicated otherwise. The change in strategy on the side of IDC was beyond any of the parties’ control and has been treated as a non-adjusting post balance sheet event. ZCCM-IH Plc, the Board is committed to divest from these investments and actively searching for buyers. • Note 23, 24 and 25 – Determining the fair values of investment in subsidiaries, associates and nancial assets at fair value through prot or loss on the basis of signicant unobservable inputs. Valuation of the Group’s unquoted investments is an area of judgement which involves the use signicant estimates and assumptions. Management uses various valuation techniques when determining the fair values of unquoted investee companies whose outcome is dependent on several signicant unobservable inputs and assumptions as disclosed under Note 23, 24 and 25. • Note 23 – acquisition of subsidiary: Fair valuation of the consideration transferred, and fair value of the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, is an area of judgement which involves the use signicant estimates and assumptions. Management uses various valuation techniques when determining the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Where the acquisition of a subsidiary that occurs during the period is incomplete, management recognises the fair values of the amounts of assets, liabilities, non-controlling interests, or items of consideration on a provisional basis and continues to re measure until the earlier of the receipt of information that is needed or after one year from the date of acquisition. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 4. Use of estimates and judgements (Continued) a. Judgements (continued) ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 68 Investing SMARTLY • Note 45 (a) iv – consolidation: whether the Company has signicant inuence over an investee or de facto control over an investee. Management has reassessed its involvement in Rembrandt Properties Limited (49%) and Consolidated Gold Company Limited (45%) in accordance with IFRS 10’s control denition and guidance. It has concluded it has signicant inuence but not outright control. In making its judgement, management considered the following: • Company’s voting rights – the Company’s voting rights are limited to 49% and 45% respectively but in relation to the dispersion of the voting rights held by other shareholders the Company has a signicant right; and • Relative size – in relation to the extent of recent participation by those shareholders in general meetings, the Company is deemed to have signicant inuence over the investees • Further, management has reassessed its involvement in Central African Company Limited (49%) in accordance with IFRS 10’s control denition and guidance. It has concluded it has de facto control in the Company. In making its judgement, management considered the following: • ZCCM-IH’s representation on the board of the investee Company • Appointment of key management staff • Number of voting rights. • Following the above assessment, management has determined that the Company’s involvement in all its investee companies in accordance with IFRS 10’s control denition and guidance has not changed from prior year except for Mopani Copper Mines Plc. Uncertain Tax Position regarding Mopani Copper Mines loan forgiveness modication As part of the share purchase Agreement (SPA) between ZCCM-IH and Glencore International AG, the Company’s loans/debt with Glencore were amended and restated as at 31 March 2021 to ZMW33.12 billion (US$ 1.5b billion). This loan modication was in fullment of the Agreement for the Government of the Republic of Zambia through ZCCM- IH to buy Glencore’s 90% shareholding in return for US$1.00 consideration and US$1.5 billion debt. The resulting debt forgiveness amount was credited to pre- acquisition prots. The tax treatment for this gain is uncertain on the basis that the Zambian Income Tax does not have an express provision that directly deal with the matter. There is equally no judicial precedence from the Tax Appeals Tribunal or a higher court where concrete guidance can be found. The Directors have consulted widely in this transaction related gain and have not accrued for the estimated ZMW13.02 billion (US$590 million) tax that would arise in the unlikely event that the transaction was interpreted as taxable. b. Assumptions and estimation and uncertainties Information about assumptions and estimation uncertainties that have a signicant risk of resulting in a material adjustment in the year ended 31 December 2022 is included in the following notes: • Notes 23 – acquisition of subsidiary: fair value of the consideration transferred, and fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed; • Notes 23, 24 and 25 – measurement of fair value of investee companies; key assumptions about discounted cash ow assumptions; • Note 37 – measurement of dened benet obligations: key actuarial assumptions; • Note 32 and 38 – recognition and measurement of provisions and contingencies: key assumptions about the likelihood and magnitude of an outow of resources; NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 4. Use of estimates and judgements (Continued) ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 69Investing SMARTLY • Note 42 – measurement of ECL allowance for trade receivables and contract assets: key assumptions in determining the weighted-average loss rate and the valaution of VATreceivable; and • Note 45(j) - impairment test of intangible assets and goodwill: key assumptions underlying recoverable amounts. c. Measurement of fair values A number of the Group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of fair values, for both nancial and non-nancial assets and liabilities. The Group has an established control framework with respect to the measurement of fair values. Signicant valuation issues are reported to the Group Audit Committee. This includes the Group nance team that has overall responsibilities for overseeing all signicant fair value measurement including level 3 fair values and reports directly to the Chief Financial Ofcer (CFO). The nance team regularly reviews signicant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments. If third party information arises such as broker quotes or pricing services, used to measure fair values, then the nance team assesses the evidence obtained from third parties to support the conclusion that such valuations meet the requirement of IFRS, including the level in the fair value hierarchy in which such valuations should be classied. When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, the Group uses observable market data as far as possible. Fair values are categorised into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows: • Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. • Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). • Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorised in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is signicant to the entire measurement. The Group recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred. Determination of ore reserves and life of mine plan Reserves are estimates of the amount of product that can be economically and legally extracted from the group’s properties. Estimating the quantity and/or grade of reserves requires the size, shape and depth of ore bodies or elds to be determined by analysing geological data such as drilling samples. Following this, the quantity of ore that can be extracted in an economical manner is calculated using data regarding the life of mine plans and forecast sales prices (based on current and long-term historical average price trends). NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 4. Use of estimates and judgements (Continued) b. Measurement of fair values ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 70 Investing SMARTLY A majority of the groups’ property, plant and equipment associated with its mining subsidiaries are depreciated over the estimated lives of the assets on a units-of-production basis. This also includes the timing of repayments of life of mine linked borrowings. The calculation of the units-of-production rate, and therefore the annual depreciation expense could be materially affected by changes in the underlying estimates which are driven by the life of mine plans. Changes in estimates can be the result of actual future production differing from current forecasts of future production, expansion of mineral reserves through exploration activities, differences between estimated and actual costs of mining and differences in the commodity prices used in the estimation of mineral reserves. Changes in the proven and probable reserves estimates may impact the carrying value of property, plant and equipment, asset retirement obligation provision, recognition of deferred income tax amounts and depreciation expense amount. Further information about the assumptions made in measuring fair values is included in the following notes: • Note 21 - Investment property • Note 23 – Investment in subsidiaries; and • Note 24 – Investment in associates. • Note 42- nancial instruments. 5. New or revised Standards or Interpretations 5.1 New and amended standards adopted by the Company and Group The Group adopted the applicable new, revised or amended standards for the nancial reporting periods commencing on or after 1 January 2022. The amendments to accounting standards below, effective for the reporting period 1 January 2022 did not have any material impact on the Group’s accounting policies and required no retrospective adjustments to the annual nancial statements of the Group. Property, Plant and Equipment: Proceeds before intended use – Amendments to IAS 16. The amendment to IAS 16 Property, Plant and Equipment (PP&E) prohibits an entity from deducting from the cost of an item of PP&E any proceeds received from selling items produced while the entity is preparing the asset for its intended use. It also claries that an entity is ‘testing whether the asset is functioning properly’ when it assesses technical and physical performance of the asset. The nancial performance of the asset is not relevant to this assessment. Entities must disclose separately the amounts of proceeds and costs relating to items produced that are not an output of the entity’s ordinary activities. Onerous Contracts – Cost of Fullling a Contract Amendments to IAS 37. The amendment to IAS 37 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets, claries that the direct costs of fullling a contract include both the incremental costs of fullling the contract and an allocation of other costs directly related to fullling contracts. Before recognising a separate provision for an onerous contract, the entity recognises any impairment loss that has occurred on assets used in fullling the contract. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 4. Use of estimates and judgements (Continued) c. Measurement of fair values (continued) ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 71Investing SMARTLY Annual Improvements to IFRS Standards 2018–2020. The following improvements were nalised in May 2020: • IFRS 9 Financial Instruments – claries which fees should be included in the 10% test for derecognition of nancial liabilities; • IFRS 16 Leases – amendment of illustrative example 13 to remove the illustration of payments from the lessor relating to leasehold improvements, to remove any confusion about the treatment of lease incentives; • IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards – allows entities that have measured their assets and liabilities at carrying amounts recorded in their parent’s books to also measure any cumulative translation differences using the amounts reported by the parent. This amendment will also apply to associates and joint ventures that have taken the same IFRS 1 exemption. 5.2 New and amended standards not yet adopted by the Group. Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 31 December 2022 reporting periods and have not been early adopted by the Group. These standards are not expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current or future reporting periods and on foreseeable future transactions. Classication of Liabilities as Current or Non-current – Amendments to IAS 1 The narrow-scope amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements clarify that liabilities are classied as either current or non-current, depending on the rights that exist at the end of the reporting period. Classication is unaffected by the entity’s expectations or events after the reporting date (e.g., the receipt of a waiver or a breach of covenant). The amendments also clarify what IAS 1 means when it refers to the ‘settlement’ of a liability. The amendments could affect the classication of liabilities, particularly for entities that previously considered management’s intentions to determine classication and for some liabilities that can be converted into equity. They must be applied retrospectively in accordance with the normal requirements in IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors. Since approving these amendments, the IASB has issued an exposure draft proposing further changes and the deferral of the amendments until at least 1 January 2024. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 5. New or revised Standards or Interpretationss (Continued) 5.1 New and amended standards not yet adopted by the Group (continued) ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 72 Investing SMARTLY Disclosure of Accounting Policies – Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2 The IASB amended IAS 1 to require entities to disclose their material rather than their signicant accounting policies. The amendments dene what is ‘material accounting policy information’ and explain how to identify when accounting policy information is material. They further clarify that immaterial accounting policy information does not need to be disclosed. If it is disclosed, it should not obscure material accounting information. To support this amendment, the IASB also amended IFRS Practice Statement 2 Making Materiality Judgements to provide guidance on how to apply the concept of materiality to accounting policy disclosures. Denition of Accounting Estimates – Amendments to IAS 8 The amendment to IAS 8 Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors claries how companies should distinguish changes in accounting policies from changes in accounting estimates. The distinction is important, because changes in accounting estimates are applied prospectively to future transactions and other future events, whereas changes in accounting policies are generally applied retrospectively to past transactions and other past events as well as the current period. Deferred Tax related to Assets and Liabilities arising from a Single Transaction – Amendments to IAS 12 The amendments to IAS 12 Income Taxes require companies to recognise deferred tax on transactions that, on initial recognition, give rise to equal amounts of taxable and deductible temporary differences. They will typically apply to transactions such as leases of lessees and decommissioning obligations, and will require the recognition of additional deferred tax assets and liabilities. The amendment should be applied to transactions that occur on or after the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented. In addition, entities should recognise deferred tax assets (to the extent that it is probable that they can be utilised) and deferred tax liabilities at the beginning of the earliest comparative period for all deductible and taxable temporary differences associated with: • right-of-use assets and lease liabilities, and; • decommissioning, restoration and similar liabilities, and the corresponding amounts recognised as part of the cost of the related assets. The cumulative effect of recognising these adjustments is recognised in retained earnings, or another component of equity, as appropriate. IAS 12 did not previously address how to account for the tax effects of on-balance sheet leases and similar transactions and various approaches were considered acceptable. Some entities may have already accounted for such transactions consistent with the new requirements. These entities will not be affected by the amendments. Sale or contribution of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture – Amendments to IFRS 10 and IAS 28. The IASB has made limited scope amendments to IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures. The amendments clarify the accounting treatment for sales or contribution of assets between an investor and their associates or joint ventures. They conrm that the accounting treatment depends on whether the non-monetary assets sold or contributed to an associate or joint venture constitute a ‘business’ (as dened in IFRS 3 Business Combinations).

Where the non-monetary assets constitute a business, the investor will recognise the full gain or loss on the sale or contribution of assets. If the assets do not meet the denition of a business, the gain or loss is recognised by the investor only to the extent of the other investor’s interests in the associate or joint venture. The amendments apply prospectively. In December 2015, the IASB decided to defer the application date of this amendment until such time as the IASB has nalised its research project on the equity method. 6. Operating segments a.

The computation of the recoverable amounts for the purposes of Goodwill testing is done on the higher of fair value less cost to sell basis or value in use calculations using a discounted cashow. Market participants in the mining industry generally use Discounted Cashows (DCF) to determine fair value. TheThe key assumptions for the fair value using discounted cashow (DCF) method calculations are those regarding the discount rates, growth rates and expected changes to selling prices and direct costs. Management estimates discount rates using post-tax rates that reect current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specic to the CGUs. Mopani Copper Mine CGU On 31 March 2021, the ZCCM-IH Shareholders approved the ZCCM-IH’s acquisition of the remaining 90% interest in Mopani held by Carlisa Investments Corp (“Carlisa”) for a US$1 consideration and ZMW 33.1bn (US$1.50 billion) in Transaction Debt. The acquisition of 90% of the issued shares in Mopani Copper Mine Plc will result in ZCCM-IH being the holder of 100% of the issued shares in the Company. As at 31 March 2021, Goodwill amounting to ZMW14,862 million was recognized. The goodwill is attributable Mopani’s strong position as a Grade A copper producer in the mining industry and other factors such as assembled workforce. Refer to the table that includes a summary of Key assumptions as at that date. ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 92 Investing SMARTLY NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 20. Goodwill (Continued) Below are the key assumptions used in the calculation of the CGU recoverable value: Assumptions as at 31 March, 2021. Cash generating unit Method used and assumptions Mopani Copper Mine Plc • Method Used to determine recoverable amount: Fair Value less cost to Sell using discounted cashow method (DCF) • Assumptions as at 31 March 2021. • WACC impact Excluding SRP -computations for the assets under consideration implied a WACC ranging from 13.71% to 15.96%. The WACC applied for the analysis had been based on the low range of 13+++.71% to determine the high end of our valuation range. • WACC impact including SRP -Included 1.5-2% specic risk premium to cater for risk of inferred resources being included in LOM valuation and capex funding uncertainty. • CAPEX of ZMW 7,834m (US$355.3m) was used which was aligned with the status of expansion projects at valuation date. • Copper prices were obtained from Glencore publications. • Tax adjustments which had been adjusted for the impact of disallowed interest expenses. • Outside LoM Resources- Included outside LoM resources as a terminal value in the model. The resources used for the outside LoM is the reserves in the competent person report. As as 31 December 2021, an impairment test was conducted by comparing the carrying amount with the recoverable amount. The recoverable amount was computed by discounting the CGU’s free cashows using a WACC range of 15% - 16.7% adjusted for market and specic risk over the life of mine. The recoverable amount signicantly dropped to nil. Several economic factors deteriorated during the intervening period to year end caused by the country default on its national debt. An impact of this deterioration was a change in the country risk premium from around 8.31% to around 16.11%. As a result, the directors determined that the carrying amount of goodwill for Mopani Copper Mines Plc exceeded the recoverable amount. Accordingly, the full amount of ZMW14,862 million relating to goodwill relating to Mopani Copper Mine Plc, was impaired totally as at 31 December 2021. ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 93Investing SMARTLY Assumptions as at 31 December, 2021. Cash generating unit Method used and assumptions Mopani Copper Mine Plc Method Used to determine recoverable amount: Fair Value less cost to Sell The Fair Value of Mopani Copper Mines Plc was determined using a discounted cashow method. Key Assumptions Commodity price assumptions and Mineral Royalty Tax For the period between 2022 and 2024, the average copper and gold price used were obtained from a sample of investment banks. From 2025 onwards, a at rate of US$3.95 /lb copper and US$1,631/oz gold was used. • The Mineral Royalty Tax for copper (a sliding scale – between 10% - 5.5%, with the higher bands being: 10% for Cu price over US$4.08/lb, 8.5% for price between US$4.08/lb – US$3.4/lb and 7.5% for prices between US$3.4 – US$2.72/lb) is assumed to be 8.5% over the LOM. • The MRT for cobalt revenue, which is xed, remains at 8.0%. Cash ow period Life of mine (LOM) was estimated to be 19 years. Growth Rate The growth rate was based on the spread of the proven and probable mineral ore reserves as determined by the mine plan which incorporates mining methods applicable at each stage of the cashow. Net working capital The forecast net working capital movements for were from 2022 to 2045 Depreciation Forecast depreciation for Mopani from 2022 to 2045 were provided. Operating costs and protability Operating cost forecasts for Mopani were obtained from the Mopani LOM. The operating costs were categorised as mining, processing, technical, corporate, general administration, royalties and other costs. Net debt As at 31 December 2021, Mopani had ZMW 86m (US$ 3.9m) drawn in overdraft, a long-term obligation of ZMW 33bn (US$1.5 billion) to Glencore and cash amounting to ZMW 103.9m (US$4.7m). Free Cash Flows The free cash ow for Mopani is the cash generated from operations, less capex and adjusted for working capital movements. WACC Capital structure Mopani’s equity value was nil, with signicant long-term debt of ZMW 33bn (US$1.5 billion). To calculate a levered beta for Mopani, a target debt-to-equity ratio derived from a peer group of mining companies was applied. This ratio was utilized when determining the relevered beta for the cost of equity calculation. WACC The cost of equity has been calculated based on: A risk-free rate of 1.5%, which is the yield on the ten-year U.S. treasury-bond. An equity market risk premium of 16.1% for Zambia, comprised of a country risk premium and a market premium. Target capital structure assumes 85.7% equity, and 14.3% debt; Unlevered beta of 0.95 based on a peer group of mining companies remains the same Foreign Exchange Effects on Goodwill. As goodwill was recognized and fully impaired in the same nancial year, there was no recognized effects of changes in foreign exchange rate at the end of the reporting period. During the year 2022, there was no goodwill that was recognised. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 20.

Measurement of fair value Investment properties, principally ofce buildings and residential apartments, are held for long-term rental yields. They are carried at fair value. Changes in fair values are presented in prot or loss as part of other income. Fair value hierarchy The fair value of investment property for the Company was determined, as at 31 December 2022 by Sherwood Green Property Consultants, who are sufciently independent property valuers, having appropriate recognised professional qualications and recent experience in the location and category of the property being valued. The fair value measurement for investment property of ZMW201 million (2021: ZMW 192 million) has been categorised as a Level 3 fair value based on the inputs to the valuation technique used. Valuation techniques and signicant unobservable inputs The following table shows the valuation technique used in measuring the fair value of investment property, as well as the signicant unobservable inputs used Valuation technique Signicant unobservable inputs Inter-relationships between Key unobservable inputs and fair value measurement The valuation technique used is the Discounted Cash Flows. This valuation method considers the present value of net cash ows to be generated from the property, taking into account expected rental growth rate, void periods, occupancy rate, lease incentive costs sum as rent-free periods and other costs not paid by tenants. The expected net cash ows are discounted using risk adjusted discount rates. Among other factors, the discount rate estimation considers the quality of a building and its location (prime vs secondary) tenant credit quality • Expected market rental growth (3 - 5%. Weighted average 4%) (2022: 4%, 2021: 4%) • Void periods (average 6 months after the end of each lease) (2022: 6 months, 2021: 6 months) • Occupancy rate (90- 95%, weighted average 90%) (2022: 90%, 2021: 90%) • Rent-free periods (1-month period on new leases) (2022: 1 month, 2022: 1 month) • Risk-adjusted discount rates (10% - 10.5%. weighted average 10%) (2022: 10% 2021: 10%). • The estimated fair value would increase or (decrease) if: • expected market rental growth were higher (lower); • void periods were shorter (longer); • the occupancy rate were higher (lower): • Rent-free periods were shorter (longer); or • The risk-adjusted discount rate were lower (higher).

Valuation technique Signicant unobservable inputs and key assumptions The DCF method calculates the value of a business from its expected free cash ow at the rm required rate of return (discount rate or “WACC”), using mid period discounting (as the cash ows are assumed to be earned semi- annually). • Risk-free rate 0.1% • Rating based Default Spread 11.6% • Country risk premium 10.6% • Synthesized risk-free rate range 10.7% to 11.7% • Beta range 0,88 to1,13 • Market risk premium range 5.5% to 6.0% • Cost of equity excluding risk premiums 16.9% to 17.9% • Specic risk premium 1.5% to 2.0% • Cost of equity 17.5% to 19.91% • Cost of debt 2.5% to 3.5% • Tax 30.0% • WACC: range 13.71% to 15.37% • For the period between 2022 and 2024, the average copper and gold price used were obtained from a sample of investment banks. From 2025 onwards, a at rate of US$3.95 /lb copper and US$1,631/oz gold was used.TT • The Mineral Royalty Tax (MRT) for copper (a sliding scale – between 10% - 5.5%, with the higher bands being: 10% for Cu price over US$4.08/lb, 8.5% for price between US$4.08/lb – US$3.4/lb and 7.5% for prices between US$3.4 – US$2.72/lb) is assumed to be 8.5% over the LOM. • The MRT for cobalt revenue, which is xed, remains at 8.0 ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 107Investing SMARTLY iii. Contingent consideration There was no contingent consideration related to the transaction. iv. Contingent liabilities of Mopani A provision of ZMW 376,430,730 (US$20,852,000) was recognised on the acquisition of Mopani Copper Mines Plc. This provision relates to litigation claims as a result of cancellation of previous service providers’ contracts. The signicant portion of the provision related to this case, Group Five Zambia Limited vs. Mopani Copper Mines Plc In this case, Group Five Zambia Limited has led a notication with the International Chamber of Commerce International Court of Arbitration relating to a dispute they have with Mopani regarding alleged non-payment of contractual amounts for works executed on the newly constructed Concentrator at Nkana Mines Site. The claim is for amounts well over US$6,000,000. Mopani is defending these claims. As at 1 April 2021, It was unlikely that courts would rule this case against Mopani and there has been no change in this position up to the date of approval of these nancial statements. Mopani had the following legal/ arbitration proceeding considered material at the date of acquisition for which the probability of an adverse outcome was very low resulting into no provision being made, ERB tariffs of 2014 - The Energy Regulation Board (ERB) awarded an electricity tariff increase to ZESCO applicable to all mining companies with effect from 2 April 2014. The ERB communicated a 28.8% increase of tariffs under the Bulk Supply Agreement (BSA) between ZESCO and the CEC. This tariff was applicable for the period between April 2014 to December 2015. The mines have contested this tariff increase and commenced an action in the High Court by way of Judicial Review. As at 31 December 2021, the matter was still pending determination in the High Court. Pursuant to the ERB directive, ZESCO had invoiced the CEC on the basis of the new tariffs and the CEC, in turn, invoiced its mining customers on the same basis. The value of potential claims against the Mopani Copper Mines (MCM) that would likely result from an unfavourable outcome as at 31 December 2021 is estimated at ZMW 1,646 million (US$99 million (2020: US$99 million)). A tariff was agreed amongst the parties in 2017 and was effective on that date onwards with a prospective application. Therefore, the contingent amount remains at the disclosed amount since 2017 of US$99 million until the uncertainty is resolved by the courts. As regards the ERB tariffs of 2014 matter, the consent judgement subsequently issued in October 2022 in favour of mopani, was already mutually agreed upon through an out-of-court discussions at the time of Mopani’s acquisition by ZCCM- IH on 31 March 2021, As such, management assessed the fair value of any contingency to be nil, so did not recognize a provision related to this contingent liability. For the contingent liabilities above, due to the nature of the contingent liabilities, • There were no amounts reversed unused. • There were no discounted amount arising from the passage of time. • There were no expected reimbursements. • There were no probabilities provided as the full claim value were considered for initial recognition. vi. Revenue and prot contribution The acquired business contributed revenues of ZMW14.49 billion and net loss of ZMW 1.43 billion to the Group for the period from 1 April to 31 December 2021.

In the consolidated nancial statements, investments in associates are equity - accounted. The decrease in fair value from ZMW 20.60 million to ZMW16.26 million is largely on account of reduced forecasted copper prices in the long term as compared to prior year projections, in addition to the receipt of US$195 million one off dividend from Kansanshi Mine Plc during the year.

VAT receivables Valued Added Tax (“VAT”) receivable balance of ZMW3.6 billion relates to Mopani. Of this balance, A time value of money adjustment of ZMW1,595 million has been recognised given the long-term nature of VAT refunds. Management deems the gross VAT receivable is fully recoverable based on ZRA verication procedures conducted up as at the end of the nancial year. An assessment of output tax amounting to US$362 million (ZMW3.6 billion) had been raised by ZRA. The assessment covers the years 2011, 2012 and the rst quarter of 2013. The basis of assessment is that the Company has not provided all the evidence that was required under the old Rule 18 of the VAT (General) Rules to prove an export and in particular the requirement to submit customs import certicates from the country of nal destination. As a consequence, all sales of metal that were zero rated in the returns have been standard rated by assessment by ZRA. In 2015, VAT Rule 18 was subsequently amended to allow exporters to submit transit documents issued by the customs authority in the country of transit of the goods instead of import certicates from the country of nal destination, as proof of export for purposes of VAT zero rating. The amendment was with effect from 23 February 2015. As a result, the Company has been able to claim and receive VAT refunds claimed after 1 March 2015. A provision for impairment has not been raised in respect of the VAT recoverable relating to Mopani Plc, as management believe that the amount is fully recoverable, and discussions are ongoing with Government and the tax authorities.

Deferred income tax Group Deferred income tax assets are recognised for provisions to the extent that the future related tax benets will be realised. There were no unrecognised deferred tax assets during the period. The deferred tax asset have been recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable prots will be available against which the temporary differences will be utilised. Subject to agreement with the Zambia Revenue Authority, the Group has estimated tax losses of approximately ZMW 468million (2021: ZMW517.33 million) deferred tax losses relates to ZCCM-IH the holding Company and are recoverable. ZCCM-IH company has forecasted that sufcient taxable prots will be available to utilises the recognised tax losses.

Retirement benets Group dened contribution plan A dened contribution plan is a pension plan under which the Group pays xed contributions into the fund. The Group has no legal or constructive obligations to pay further contributions if the fund does not hold sufcient assets to pay all employees the benets relating to employee service in the current and prior years. The Company’s contributions to the dened contribution schemes are charged to prot or loss in the year to which they relate. The Group has no further obligation once contributions have been paid. Group dened contribution obligation Under the terms of employment, permanent employees of the Group are entitled to post employment gratuity benets. The benets are dened benet in nature based on the members’ length of service and their salary at the earlier of retirement or death or termination from employment. This scheme is unfunded, and the Group only pays a benet upon retirement of an individual qualifying for the benet. The regulator, Pensions and Insurance Authority, does not regulate gratuity schemes such as this one. However, companies that opt to provide an additional and separate unfunded gratuity benet for their employees are required to operate within the governing covenants and agreements with their employees. Taxation of this scheme falls under the framework and administration of this arrangement, including decisions as to whether to prefund the benet costs or amend the arrangement design. The Group’s accrued liability in respect of each employee is the present value of the benets in respect of service completed to the valuation date but based on projected earnings to retirement or date of payment. The total accrued liability (or the required provision) at the valuation date is a summation of the accrued liability in respect of each employee. Key risks The plan typically exposes the Group to actuarial risks such as: interest rate risk, salary risk and liquidity risk. Interest rate risk The plan liabilities are calculated using a discount rate set with reference to Zambian government bond yields. A decrease in government bonds will increase the plan liabilities. Salary risk The present value of the dened benet plan liability is calculated by reference to the future salaries of plan participants. As such, an increase in the salary of the plan participants will increase the plan’s liability. Liquidity risk The plan is unfunded. There is a risk that resources might not be available when needed to pay the benets that have become due. a.

Actuarial assumptions Critical assumptions are made by the actuary in determining the present value of retirement benet obligation including the discount rate. The carrying amount of the provision and the key assumptions made in estimating the provision were as follows: Group Company 31Dec 2022 31 Dec 2021 31 Dec 2022 31 Dec 2021 Discount rate 27.75% 26% 25.40% 26% Future salary increases 10.0% 11.7% 11% 18.4% The liability and actuarial assumptions are based on the actuarial valuation report as at 31 December 2022. b. Sensitivity analysis The results of the actuarial valuation are sensitive to changes in the nancial assumptions than changes in the demographic assumptions. In preparing the sensitivity analysis of the results to the discount rate used, the actuarial relied on calculations of the duration of the liability. Based on this methodology, the results of the sensitivity analysis are summarized in the table below: Group Company 31 Dec 2022 31 Dec 2021 31 Dec 2022 31 Dec 2021 Present value of obligation Present value of obligation Present value of obligation Present value of obligation ZMW’000 ZMW’000 ZMW’000 ZMW’000 1% increase in discount rate (4,188) (4,883) (479) (652) 1% decrease in discount rate 5,567 5,381 528 734 1% increase in salary rate 5,289 6,010 604 780 1% decrease in salary rate (4,874) (5,516) (551) (719) Since all the benets payable under the plan are salary related, the sensitivity of the liability to a change in the salary escalation assumption is not expected to be materially different. Effect on Company cash ows The arrangement is unfunded and the Company pays benets from general revenues as and when they arise. The timing of the benet payments from the plan will be inuenced by the age at which employees retire from the Company.

The Company’s provision is as a result of inherited environmental obligations from the old ZCCM Limited combined with environmental disturbances from mining operations at Mopani, Limestone and Kariba. The provisions have been assessed to cost ZMW1.22 billion as at 31 December 2022 as compared to ZMW1.98 billion as at 31 December 2021. The increase of ZMW22.25 million is largely on account of exchange differences. The provision represents the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligations to rehabilitate environmental disturbances caused by mining operations. Mining Companies are expected to make contributions to the Environmental Protection Fund, controlled by the Department of Mines and Mineral Development. Contributions made towards the fund reduces the environmental provision obligation. At the end of useful life of the mine, Mining Companies are obligated to rehabilitate the damage to the environment and all payments made to the Environmental Protection Fund will be reimbursed towards this rehabilitation. The valuation for the environmental restoration provision at 31 December 2022 for the Company and subsidiaries were performed by independent consultants. Assumptions The following assumptions were taken into account: Ination rate of 6.5% (2021: 7%), Discount rate of 3.99% (2021:1.26%) and time to settle of 5 to 25 years when cashows are expected to be incurred. Based on this assessment, there was an increase in the liability for ARO and remediation on an undiscounted basis after an ination factor of 6.5% (2021: 7%) of approximately ZMW 1.22 billion (US$55.62 million) ZMW1.198 billion (2021: US$67.64 million). The discount factor of 3.99% was applied in 2022 (2021: 1.26%). The increase in the restoration provision in the current year is principally attributable to exchange movements. The changes in cash ow estimates result from new Net Present Value ( NPV) estimates of the asset retirement obligation. An impact of a 10% movement in the ination rate results into ZMW356.54 million (2021: ZMW371.50 million) change in the retirement and remediation liability while a 10% movement in the discount rate results into a ZMW 292.54 million (2021: ZMW 85.41 million) change in the liability and corresponding mineral properties asset. For each mining area, the ARO cash outows have been estimated to occur after the end of the mining over a period which is between 5 to 25 years.

Nava Bharat (Singapore) PTE Ltd (NBS) Equity Contribution on behalf of ZCCM-IH ZCCM-IH, being a co-owner of Maamba Collieries Limited (MCL) with Nava Bharat (Singapore) PTE Ltd (NBS), was in 2017 required to contribute ZMW 162 million (US$9.75 million) in form of a shareholder loan towards Maamba’s Base Project Equity according to its shareholding ratio of 35%. However, NBS contributed the whole amount including the ZMW 215 millon (US$9.75million) share for ZCCM-IH. As a result, it was resolved that ZCCM-IH refunds NBS, interest free, the excess contribution through offset of ZMW 27.1 million (US$1.23 million) interest payment which was due to ZCCM-IH from Maamba on the initial outstanding shareholder loan of 31 May 2015. The balance of ZMW 141.68 million (US$8.52 million) was to be paid by Maamba to NBS from future dividends of Maamba, payable to ZCCM-IH. ZMW 27.1 million (US$1.23 million) was paid to NBS in 2017, however, no dividends have been received from Maamba since 2017 to settle the balance. ZCCM-IH has determined that in the absence of dividends from Maamba it has no present obligation to settle the outstanding balance. For this reason, ZMW 187.9million (US$8.52 million) due to NBS has not been recognised in these nancial statements. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 39.

Mopani contingent liabilities Glencore International AG (the previous majority shareholder) decided on 8 April 2020 to place the Mopani operations under care and maintenance in the wake of the COVID-19 situation and other persistent operational challenges. This resulted in termination of contracts with all contractors. As a result of these terminations, three of the contractors commenced action against the Company in the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce. The Directors are of the view that material losses will arise in respect of these claims at the date of these nancial statements and a provision hasbeen made. For Group consolidation, Those legal claims for which no provision was recognised as of 31 March 2021, were appropriately considered for IFRS 3 recognition. Refer to Note 23 d) ii). iv. In addition, the Company had contingent liabilities estimated at ZMW 19.96 million (US$1.2 million) relating to contractor and other claims against the Company. No provision has been made in these nancial statements as the Directors do not consider that there is any probable loss that will arise following the nalisation of these matters. v. Transfer pricing case (2012 to 2017) In October 2020, the Company received a report from the Zambia Revenue Authority (ZRA) relating to assessments for alleged transfer pricing breaches for sales between 2012 to 2017. The report highlighted additional tax to be paid by Mopani amounting to ZMW917 million (US$54.8 million). In November 2020, Mopani responded to ZRA and objected to the additional tax indicated in the audit report. Following this objection and discussions management had with ZRA, the amount for additional tax to be paid was reduced to ZMW640 million (US$38.3 million). On 7 April 2021, ZRA issued an assessment to the amount of K281 million (US$16.8 million) to which Mopani has formally objected through their tax experts. On this basis, Directors believe that no provision is required as at 31 December 2022 as the matter is currently in progress with ZRA for resolution.

Financial risk management ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 150 Investing SMARTLY The Group has exposure to the following risks arising from nancial instruments: • Market risk (see (a)) • Credit risk (see (b)) • Liquidity risk (see (c)) Risk management framework The Company’s Board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group’s risk management framework. The Board of directors has established the audit and risk committee, which is responsible for developing and monitoring the Group’s risk management policies. The committee reports quarterly to the Board of directors on its activities. The Group’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the Group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reect changes in market conditions and the Group’s activities. The Group, through its training and management standards and procedures, aims to maintain a disciplined and constructive control environment in which all employees understand their roles and obligations. The Group audit committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the Group’s risk management policies and procedures and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the Group. The Group audit committee is assisted in its oversight role by internal audit. Internal audit undertakes both regular and ad hoc reviews of risk management controls and procedures, the results of which are reported to the audit committee. c. Market risk Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices – will affect the Group’s income or the value of its holdings of nancial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return. i. Exposure to currency risk The Group is exposed to foreign exchange risk arising from various currency exposures, primarily with respect to the US dollar. The Group is affected by foreign exchange movements because it has assets and income which are denominated in currencies other than the Company’s functional currency, which is the Zambian Kwacha. Management’s policy to manage foreign currency risk is to hold both functional and foreign currency xed deposits with various banks which act as a natural hedge for foreign currency obligations. Hedging techniques such as currency swap are also used to manage currency risk. The Group did not enter into any transactions that required currency swap technique during the year and the prior year.

This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remain constant and ignores any impact of forecast sales and purchases. The analysis is performed on the same basis for 31 December 2021.

The Group’s operations are subject to cash ow variability due to the risk of interest rate uctuations to the extent that interest-earning assets (including investments) and interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice at different times and/or in differing amounts. In the case of oating rate assets and liabilities the Group is also exposed to basis risk, which is the difference in repricing characteristics of the various oating rate indices. Asset-liability risk management activities are conducted in the context of the Group’s sensitivity to cash ow variability attributable to interest rate changes.

Therefore, these do not meet the denition of nancial instruments and have been excluded from the table above ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 155Investing SMARTLY Risks arising from the interest rate benchmark reform The key risks for the Group arising from the transition are: • Interest rate basis risk: There are two elements to this risk as outlined below: If the bilateral negotiations with the Group’s counterparties are not successfully concluded before the cessation of IBORs, there are signicant uncertainties with regard to the interest rate that would apply. This gives rise to additional interest rate risk that was not anticipated when the contracts were entered into and is not captured by our interest rate risk management strategy. For example, in some cases the fallback clauses in IBOR loan contracts may result in the interest rate becoming xed for the remaining term at the last IBOR quote. The Group is working closely with all counterparties to avoid this from occurring, however if this does arise, the Group’s interest rate risk management policy will apply as normal and may result in closing out or entering into new interest rate swaps to maintain the mix of oating rate and xed rate debt Interest rate risk basis may arise if a non-derivative instrument held to manage the interest risk on the non-derivative instrument transition to alternative benchmark rates at different times. The Group will monitor this risk against its risk management policy which has been updated to allow for temporary mismatches of up to 12 months and transact additional basis interest rate swaps if required. Liquidity risk: There are fundamental differences between IBORs and the various alternative benchmark rates which the Company will be adopting. IBORs are forward looking term rates published for a period (e.g. 3 months) at the beginning of that period and include an inter- bank credit spread, whereas alternative benchmark rates are typically risk-free overnight rates published at the end of the overnight period with no embedded credit spread. These differences will result in additional uncertainty regarding oating rate interest payments which will require additional liquidity management. The Group’s liquidity risk management policy has been updated to ensure sufcient liquid resources to accommodate unexpected increases in overnight rates. Accounting: If transition to alternative benchmark rates for certain contracts is nalised in a manner that does not permit the application of the reliefs introduced in the Phase 2 amendments, this could lead to volatility in the prot or loss if nonderivative nancial instruments are modied or derecognised. The Group is aiming to agree changes to contracts that would allow IFRS 9 reliefs to apply. Litigation risk: If no agreement is reached to implement the interest rate benchmark reform on existing contracts, (e.g., arising from differing interpretation of existing fallback terms), there is a risk of prolonged disputes with counterparties which could give rise to additional legal and other costs. The Group is working closely with all counterparties to avoid this from occurring. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 42. Financial risk management (continued) a.

ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 157Investing SMARTLY i. Price risk The Group is exposed to equity securities price risk because of investments in quoted and unquoted shares classied as nancial assets at fair value through prot or loss. To manage its price risk arising from investments in equity and debt securities, the Group diversies its portfolio, in accordance with limits set by the Group. All quoted shares held by the Group are traded on the Lusaka Securities Exchange. Further, management of the Group monitors the proportion of equity securities in its investment portfolio based on market indices. Material investments within the portfolio are managed on an individual basis and all buy and sell decisions are approved by the Investment Committee of the Board. The primary goal of the Group’s investment strategy is to maximise investment returns and to improve its returns in general. Management is assisted by external advisers in this regard. At 31 December 2022, if the LUSE Index had increased/decreased by ve percent with all other variables held constant and all the Group’s equity instruments moved according to the historical correlation to the index, consolidated equity and prot or loss would have been ZMW81.33 million (2021: ZMW51.91 million) higher/lower. ii. Commodity price risk General corporate hedging unrelated to any specic project is not undertaken by the Group. The Group also does not issue or acquire derivative instruments for trading purposes. The Group is subject to price risk from uctuations in the market prices of copper. The impact of a 10% movement on commodity prices with all other variables held constant, consolidated equity and prot or loss would have been ZMW 1.9 billion higher/lower (2021: ZMW1.41 billion higher/lower) b. Credit risk Credit risk is the risk of nancial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a nancial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations and arises principally from the Group’s from cash and cash equivalents, term deposits with banks, as well as trade and other receivables. Credit risk is managed on a Group basis. The Group’s exposure to credit risk is inuenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each counterparty. However, management also considers the factors that may inuence the credit risk of its counterparty base, including the default risk associated with the industry. i. Risk management The Group through risk and audit committee has established a credit procedure under which each new customer or counterparty is analysed individually for creditworthiness before the Group’s standard payment and delivery terms and conditions are offered. The Group’s review includes external ratings, if they are available, nancial statements, credit agency information, industry information and in some cases bank references. Sale limits are established for each customer and monitored regularly by line management. ii. Security To limit the amount of credit exposure to nancial institution for term deposits, the Group obtains collateral from nancial institutions which are rated “B” and below. As at 31 December 2022, ZMW571.60 million (December 2021: ZMW220.45 million) of term deposits, collateral was held in the form of treasury bills. Due to the short-term nature of collateral held for term deposits, their carrying amounts approximates their fair values. No collateral is obtained as security for trade and other receivables. Instead, the Group requests for advance payments where necessary to reduce credit risk on some customers.

Impairment of nancial assets The Group applies the Simplied Approach to assess and measure expected credit losses (ECLs) for cash and cash equivalents, nancial instruments at amortised costs and contract assets. The simplied approach entails recognising the ECL on the lifetime of the balance due to the Group. It involves the calculation of the loss rates to categories of the third parties that is then applied to the balance. The categorization is done both per unique characteristics and time the balances outstanding. The loss rates is derived using the Croup’s own historical credit loss experience and adjust for both current and forward-looking information. The information is evaluated for its appropriateness in light of market changes so as to remain relevant and provide valid assessment results. To calculate ECL, trade and other receivables are grouped based on shared credit risk characteristics and the days past due. The Group’s historical credit loss experience does not indicate signicantly different loss patterns for the various customer segments. In calculating the expected credit loss rates, the Group considers historical loss rates for each category of customers. Historical loss rates are adjusted to reect current and forward-looking information on macroeconomic factors affecting the ability of the customers to settle the receivables. The Group has identied long term consensus copper price of $3/lb or 6,615/ MT, gross domestic product projected growth of 4% for Zambia, ination rate for Zambia projected to trend around 8% and 10%, The group considers these factors in which it sells its goods and services to be the most relevant and, accordingly, adjusts the historical loss rates based on expected changes in these factors. The Group’s historical credit loss experience does not show signicantly different loss patterns for the various customer segments. Therefore, the grouping of trade receivables is not disaggregated into further risk proles other than days past due. There were no changes in the estimation techniques or signicant assumptions made as at the reporting period.

These amounts have been impaired in accordance with the Company’s expected credit loss model. Trade receivables are written off when there is no reasonable expectation of recovery. Indicators that there is no reasonable expectation of recovery include, amongst others, the failure of a debtor to engage in a repayment plan with the Group. The write off is approved by the Board of Directors. The ZMW478.49 million written off during the year mainly relates to Ndola Lime Company Limited which was liquidated in 2020. Impairment losses on trade receivables are presented as net impairment losses within operating prot. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the same line item. ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 161Investing SMARTLY The loss allowance recognised is categorised as follows: Group Company 2022 2021 2022 2021 ZMW’000 ZMW’000 ZMW’000 ZMW’000 Performing debtors 2,494 370 1,403 5,787 Non-performing debtors 46,851 35,578 48,013 75,485 49,345 35,948 49,416 81,272 Cash and cash equivalents While cash and cash equivalents are also subject to the impairment requirements of IFRS 9, the identied impairment loss was immaterial. To limit the amount of credit exposure to nancial institution for cash and cash equivalent, cash and cash equivalents are held with banks which are rated A. Term deposits and other nancial assets Term deposits and other nancial assets at amortised cost relate to staff debtors are considered to have a low risk of default and the counterparts have a strong capacity to meet their contractual cash ow obligations in the near term. c. Liquidity risk Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difculties in meeting the obligations associated with its nancial liabilities that are settled by delivering cash or another nancial asset. The Group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will have sufcient liquidity to meet its liabilities when they are due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Group’s reputation. Management monitors rolling forecasts of the Group’s liquidity reserve on the basis of expected cash ows. The Group maintains the level of its cash ow and cash equivalents and other highly marketable debt investments at an amount in excess of expected cash outows on nancial liabilities through cash ow forecasts. i. Financing arrangements The Group had no undrawn borrowing facilities at the end of the reporting period (2020: Nil). ii. Maturities of nancial liabilities The following are the remaining contractual maturities of nancial liabilities at the reporting date. The amounts are gross and undiscounted and include estimated interest payments and exclude the impact of netting agreements. Balances due within 12 months equal their carrying balances as the impact of discounting is not signicant. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 42.

The Group’s and Company objectives when managing capital are to safeguard their ability to continue as a going concern in order to provide returns for shareholders and to maintain an optimal capital structure to reduce the cost of capital. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Group may adjust the number of dividends paid to shareholders, issue new capital or sell assets to reduce debt. The Board’s policy is to implement a sound nancial strategy that ensures nancial independence and maintains adequate capital to sustain the long terms objectives of the Group and to meet its operational and capital budget. The Group monitors capital on the basis of the average gearing ratio in the industry, in Zambia which currently stands at below 50% of equity. This ratio is calculated as net debt divided by total capital. Net debt is calculated as total borrowings less cash and cash equivalents. Total capital is calculated as equity plus net debt. The gearing ratios at 31 Dec 2022 and 31 Dec 2021 were as follows: Group Company 31 Dec 2022 31 Dec 2021 31 Dec 2022 31 Dec 2021 Borrowings 28,341,270 25,343,567 -1,135 Bank overdraft 688,120 70,449 - - Less: cash and cash equivalents (329,173) (184,625) (45,586) (81,498) Net debt 28,700,217 25,229,391 (45,586) (80,363) Total equity 7,908,807 12,808,905 24,679,852 24,732,194 Total capital 36,609,024 38,038,296 24,634,266 24,651,831 Gearing ratio 78.40% 66.33% 0% 0% The interest rates used to discount estimated cash ows when applicable are based on the government yield curve at the reporting date plus an appropriate credit spread, and are as follows: 31 Dec 2022 31 Dec 2021 Loans and borrowings 12.21% 15.75% There has been no change in management of capital during the year. iv. Fair value estimation The Group classies its nancial assets in the following measurement categories: i. those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through OCI or through prot or loss): and ii. those to be measured at amortised cost. The classication depends on the entity’s business model for managing the nancial assets and the contractual terms of the cash ows. For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in prot or loss or OCI. Financial liabilities are recorded initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method except for derivative instruments that continue to be measured at fair value. The fair value of the nancial assets and liabilities carried at amortised cost including cash and cash equivalents, trade and other receivables, term deposits, borrowings and trade and other payables are considered to approximate their respective carrying values due to their short-term nature and negligible credit losses.

Subsequent events i. Konkola Copper Mines Plc Court proceeding Winding Up Proceedings (Lusaka Proceedings). Following the decision by the High Court to deny Vedanta Resources Holdings Limited (“Vedanta”) application to stay the Lusaka Proceedings on 7 August 2019, Vedanta appealed to the Court of Appeal against the said decision. On 20 November 2020, the Court of Appeal overturned the decision of the High court and stayed the liquidation proceedings, referring the parties to arbitration. ZCCM-IH appealed to the Supreme Court against the decision of the Court of appeal on 7 September 2021. The Supreme Court, in a Ruling dated 22 March 2022, declined to hear the appeal. The decision was based on the fact that the matters that ZCCM-IH sought to have the Supreme Court hear and determine had already been dealt with in the Partial Final Award delivered on 7 July 2021 in Arbitration. By this Ruling, the Court of Appeal’s decision staying the liquidation proceedings and referring the parties to Arbitration remains unvacated. Arbitral Proceedings (South African Proceedings) The hearing of the arbitration is suspended by agreement of the parties pending negotiations to settle the dispute excuria. Konkola Copper Mines Plc (KCM) separation of Business Units After the year end, KCM was split into two separate Business Units to improve operational and nancial efciencies. The split was done by way of formation of two subsidiary companies, namely KCM Smelter Co Limited, and KCM Mineral Resources Limited, with two Separate Management structures and employee arrangements. Both companies are currently wholly owned by KCM. ii. First Quantum Minerals Limited (FQM) Arbitration Proceedings On 11 November 2019, Kansanshi Holdings Limited (“KHL”) led a Request for Arbitration in London against ZCCM-IH (as Respondent) and Kansanshi Mining Plc (KMP) (as Nominal Respondent). These Arbitration proceedings were strictly condential as between the parties. On 29 January 2021, the Tribunal made certain decisions in a Partial Final Award and reserved some matters for resolution in a Final Award. On 12 January 2022, the Tribunal delivered a Final Award by Consent, thereby disposing of the said proceedings. The arbitration has, therefore, been concluded. 44. Basis of measurement The consolidated and separate nancial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis except for the following items which are measured on an alternative basis on each reporting date. Items Measurement basis Financial assets at fair value through prot or loss Investments in associates (Company) Retirement benets Investment property Investment in subsidiary Fair value Fair value Present value of the dened obligation revaluation Fair value Fair value 45. Signicant accounting policies The Group has consistently applied the following accounting policies to all policies to all periods presented in these nancial statements. Certain comparative amounts in the statement of prot or loss and OCI have been re-presented, to ensure consistency (see Note 7,8 and 13). Set out below is an index of the signicant accounting policies, the details of which are available on the pages that follow: ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 167Investing SMARTLY NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 45.

Basis of consolidation Business combinations The Group accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method when control is transferred to the Group. The consideration transferred in the acquisition is generally measured at fair value, as are the identiable net assets acquired. Any goodwill that arises are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. Any gain on a bargain purchase is recognised in prot or loss immediately. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred, except if they are related to the issue of debt or equity securities. The consideration transferred does not include amounts related to the settlement of pre-existing relationships. Such amounts are generally recognised in prot or loss. Any contingent consideration payable is measured at fair value at the acquisition date. If the contingent consideration is classied as equity, then it is not remeasured and settlement is accounted for within equity. Otherwise, subsequent changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration are recognised in prot or loss. If share-based payment awards (replacement awards) are required to be exchanged for awards held by the acquiree’s employees (acquiree’s awards) and relate to past services, then all or a portion of the amount of the acquirer’s replacement awards is included in measuring the consideration transferred in the business combination. This determination is based on the market-based value of the replacement awards compared with the market-based value of the acquiree’s awards and the extent to which the replacement awards relate to pre-combination service. Common control transaction are accounted for as below : The transferee incorporates the assets and liabilities of the existing entity at their pre-combination carrying amounts without fair value uplift. This is on the basis that there is no substantive economic change. In essence, the combination of the two entities reects the results and nancial position of the existing business. All that changes is the structure of the group. ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 168 Investing SMARTLY NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 45 Signicant accounting policies (continued) a. Basis of consolidation (continued) i. Business combinations (continued) No new goodwill is recorded. Any difference between the cost of the transaction and the carrying value of the net assets is recorded in equity. This applies whether the consideration was for shares or cash. The Group’s nancial statements include the transferee full-year results (including comparatives), even though the transaction might have occurred part of the way through the year, or incorporate the results from the date when the entity joined the group, where such a date is later. The common control has no impact on the entities within the ZCCM-IH group. However, this would affect the wider group i.e changes outside the ZCCM- IH group. ii. Subsidiaries Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Group. The Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The nancial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated nancial statements from the date on which control commences until the date when control ceases. In the separate nancial statements, investments in subsidiaries are classied as fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI). iii. Non-controlling interests (NCI) The group recognises non-controlling interests in an acquired entity either at fair value or at the noncontrolling interest’s proportionate share of the acquired entity’s net identiable assets. This decision is made on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis. Changes in the Group’s interest in a subsidiary that do not result in a loss of control are accounted for as equity transactions. The Group attributes total comprehensive income or loss of subsidiaries between the owners of the parent and the non-controlling interests based on their respective ownership interests. iv. Loss of control When the Group loses control over a subsidiary, it derecognises the assets and liabilities of the subsidiary, and any related Non-controlling interests (NCI) and other components of equity. Any resulting gain or loss is recognised in prot or loss. Any interest retained in the former subsidiary is measured at fair value when control is lost. v. Interest in equity accounted investees The Group’s interest in equity accounted investees comprise interests in associates. Associates are those entities in which the Group has signicant inuence, but not control or joint control over the nancial and operating policies. Interests in associates are accounted for using the equity method. They are initially recognised at cost, which includes transaction costs. Subsequent to initial recognition, the consolidated nancial statements include the Group’s share of the prot or loss and other comprehensive income, after adjustments to align the accounting policies with those of the Group, from the date that signicant inuence commences until the date that signicant inuence ceases. vi. Interest in equity accounted investees (continued) In the separate nancial statements investments in associates is subsequently measured at fair value. These are classied as fair value through other comprehensive income. When the Group’s share of losses exceeds its interest in an equity-accounted investee, the carrying amount of the investment, including any long-term interests that form part thereof is reduced to zero, and the recognition of further losses is discontinued except to the extent that the Group has an obligation or has made payments on behalf of the investee. ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 169Investing SMARTLY NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 45 Signicant accounting policies (continued) a. Basis of consolidation (continued) vii. Transactions eliminated on consolidation Intra-group balances and transactions, fair value changes recognised in respect of its investment in subsidiaries and associates, and any unrealised income and expenses arising from intra group transactions, are eliminated. Unrealised gains arising from transactions with equity-accounted investees are eliminated against the investment to the extent of the Group’s interest in the investee. Unrealised losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealised gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment. viii. Remeasurement of previously held equity interest – Step up Acquisition A step acquisition occurs when a shareholder obtains control over an entity by acquiring an additional interest in that entity. If that entity is a business, the group’s previously held equity interest is remeasured to fair value at the date the controlling interest is acquired. The remeasurement of the previously-held equity interest is recognized in Prot or loss. Any amounts previously recorded in other comprehensive income relating to the investee is reclassied and included in the calculation of the gain or loss as of the acquisition date. ix. Reporting date The nancial statements of the Company and subsidiaries used in the preparation of the current consolidated nancial statements have the same reporting date of 31 December. When the end of the reporting date of the Company is different from that of the subsidiary or associates, the Company consolidates the nancial information of the subsidiaries or associates using the most recent nancial statements of the subsidiaries or associates adjusted for the effects of signicant transactions or events that occur between the date of those nancial statements and the date of the consolidated nancial statements. x. Price Participation Fee Price Participation fees are variable amount, if any, to be credited to the seller as an additional income based on variations in the Payable Copper Price, if, as and when reected in Benchmark Reference Terms from time to time. The price participation fees are recognised once conditions indicate that additional income is to be received, based on prevailing prices over the agreed period, and that its been agreed with other parties involved, in this case the buyer. b. Foreign currency Foreign currency transactions Transactions in foreign currencies are translated to the respective functional currencies of Group entities at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the reporting date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in foreign currency are translated to the functional currency at the exchange rate when the fair value was determined. Non-monetary items that are measured based on historical cost in a foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate at the date of the transaction. Foreign currency differences are generally recognised in prot or loss and presented within nance costs. However, foreign currency differences arising from the translation of the following items are recognised in other comprehensive income: • An investment in equity securities designated as at FVOCI (except on impairment, in which case foreign currency differences that have been recognised in other comprehensive income are reclassied to prot or loss). Foreign currency differences which arise on the translation of investee companies (which have a different functional currency) are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the foreign currency translation reserve.

Discontinued operation A discontinued operation is a component of the Group’s business, the operations and cash ows of which can be clearly distinguished from the rest of the Group and which: • represents a separate major line of business or geographic area of operations; • is part of a single co-ordinated plan to dispose of a separate major line of business or geographic area of operations; or • is a subsidiary acquired exclusively with a view to resale. Classication as a discontinued operation occurs at the earlier of disposal or when the operation meets the criteria to be classied as held-for-sale. When an operation is classied as a discontinued operation, the comparative statement of prot or loss and OCI is re-presented as if the operation had been discontinued from the start of the comparative year. d. Financial instruments i. Recognition and initial measurement Trade receivables and debt securities issued are initially recognised when they are originated. All other nancial assets and nancial liabilities are initially recognised when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. A nancial asset (unless it is a trade receivable without a signicant nancing component) or nancial liability is initially measured at fair value plus, for an item not at FVTPL, transaction costs that are directly attributable to its acquisition or issue. A trade receivable without a signicant nancing component is initially measured at the transaction price. ii. Classication and subsequent measurement Financial assets On initial recognition, a nancial asset is classied as measured at: amortised cost; FVOCI – debt investment; FVOCI – equity investment; or FVTPL. Financial assets are not reclassied subsequent to their initial recognition unless the Group changes its business model for managing nancial assets, in which case all affected nancial assets are reclassied on the rst day of the rst reporting period following the change in the business model. Financial assets are measured at amortised cost if the assets meet the following conditions (and are not designated as FVTPL): • they are held within a business model whose objective is to hold the nancial assets and collect its contractual cash ows; • its contractual terms give rise on specied dates to cash ows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. A debt investment is measured at FVOCI if it meets both of the following conditions and is not designated as at FVTPL: • it is held within a business model whose objective is achieved by both collecting contractual • cash ows and selling nancial assets; and • its contractual terms give rise on specied dates to cash ows that are solely payments of principal and interest on the principal amount outstanding. On initial recognition of an equity investment that is not held for trading, the Group may irrevocably elect to present subsequent changes in the investment’s fair value in OCI. This election is made on an investment-by-investment basis. All nancial assets not classied as measured at amortised cost or FVOCI as described above are measured at FVTPL. On initial recognition, the Group may irrevocably designate a nancial asset that otherwise meets the requirements to be measured at amortised cost or at FVOCI as at FVTPL if doing so eliminates or signicantly reduces an accounting mismatch that would otherwise arise. Financial assets – Business model assessment The Group makes an assessment of the objective of the business model in which a nancial asset is held at a portfolio level because this best reects the way the business is managed and information is provided to management. The information considered includes: ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 171Investing SMARTLY NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 45 Signicant accounting policies (continued) d. Financial instruments (continued) ii. Classication and subsequent measurement • the stated policies and objectives for the portfolio and the operation of those policies in practice. These include whether management’s strategy focuses on earning contractual interest income, maintaining a particular interest rate prole, matching the duration of the nancial assets to the duration of any related liabilities or expected cash outows or realising cash ows through the sale of the assets; • how the performance of the portfolio is evaluated and reported to the Group’s management. • the risks that affect the performance of the business model (and the nancial assets held within that business model) and how those risks are managed. • how managers of the business are compensated – e.g. whether compensation is based on the fair value of the assets managed or the contractual cash ows collected; and • the frequency, volume and timing of sales of nancial assets in prior periods, the reasons for such sales and expectations about future sales activity Financial assets that are held for trading or are managed and whose performance is evaluated on a fair value basis are measured at FVTPL. Financial assets – Assessment whether contractual cash ows are solely payments of principal and interest For the purposes of this assessment, ‘principal’ is dened as the fair value of the nancial asset on initial recognition. ‘Interest’ is dened as consideration for the time value of money and for the credit risk associated with the principal amount outstanding during a particular period of time and for other basic lending risks and costs (e.g. liquidity risk and administrative costs), as well as a prot margin In assessing whether the contractual cash ows are solely payments of principal and interest, the Group considers the contractual terms of the instrument. This includes assessing whether the nancial asset contains a contractual term that could change the timing or amount of contractual cash ows such that it would not meet this condition. In making this assessment, the Group considers: • contingent events that would change the amount or timing of cash ows; • terms that may adjust the contractual coupon rate, including variable-rate features; • prepayment and extension features; and • terms that limit the Group’s claim to cash ows from specied assets (e.g. non-recourse features). Financial assets – Subsequent measurement and gains and losses Financial assets at FVTPL These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Net gains and losses, including any interest or dividend income, are recognised in prot or loss. Financial assets at amortised cost These assets are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. The amortised cost is reduced by impairment losses. Interest income, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognised in prot or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is recognised in prot or loss. Debt investments at FVOCI These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Interest income calculated using the effective interest method, foreign exchange gains and losses and impairment are recognised in prot or loss. Other net gains and losses are recognised in OCI. On derecognition, gains and losses accumulated in OCI are reclassied to prot or loss. Equity investments at FVOCI These assets are subsequently measured at fair value. Dividends are recognised as income in prot or loss unless the dividend clearly represents a recovery of part of the cost of the investment. Other net gains and losses are recognised in OCI and are never reclassied to prot or loss. Financial liabilities – Classication, subsequent measurement and gains and losses Financial liabilities are classied as measured at amortised cost or FVTPL. A nancial liability is classied as at FVTPL if it is classied as held-for-trading, it is a derivative or it is designated as such on initial recognition. Financial liabilities at FVTPL are measured at fair value and net gains and losses, including any interest expense, are recognised in prot or loss. Other nancial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Interest expense and foreign exchange gains and losses are recognised in prot or loss. Any gain or loss on derecognition is also recognised in prot or loss. ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 172 Investing SMARTLY iii. Derecognition Financial assets The Group derecognises a nancial asset when the contractual rights to the cash ows from the nancial asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash ows in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the nancial asset are transferred or in which the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not retain control of the nancial asset The Group enters into transactions whereby it transfers assets recognised in its statement of nancial position, but retains either all or substantially all of the risks and rewards of the transferred assets. In these cases, the transferred assets are not derecognised. Financial liabilities The Group derecognises a nancial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled, or expire. The Group also derecognises a nancial liability when its terms are modied and the cash ows of the modied liability are substantially different, in which case a new nancial liability based on the modied terms is recognised at fair value. On derecognition of a nancial liability, the difference between the carrying amount extinguished and the consideration paid (including any non-cash assets transferred or liabilities assumed) is recognised in prot or loss. iv. Offsetting Financial assets and nancial liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of nancial position when, and only when, the Group currently has a legally enforceable right to set off the amounts and it intends either to settle them on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. No set offs have been effected in these nancial statements. e. Property, plant and equipment i. Recognition and measurement All items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost save for land and buildings are which are measured at revalued amounts for the Company. For subsidiaries, property plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and others at revalued amounts as applicable (see note 17 for full disclosure). Cost includes capitalised borrowing costs, less accumulated depreciation, and any accumulated impairment losses. If signicant parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment. Any gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognised in prot or loss. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset. The cost of self- constructed assets includes the cost of materials and direct labour, any other costs directly attributable to bringing the assets to a working condition for their intended use, the costs of dismantling and removing the items and restoring the site on which they are located and capitalised borrowing costs. Capital work in progress relates to items of property, plant and equipment that are under construction and are yet to be commissioned for use. Work in progress is measured at the costs incurred in relation to the construction up to the reporting date. Capital work in progress is not depreciated. The Group’s policy is to revalue regularly to ensure that the carrying amount does not differ materially from the fair value. The revaluation differences are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity “revaluation reserve” unless the revaluation difference represents the reversal of a revaluation decrease previously recognised as an expense, in which case the revaluation difference is recognised in prot or loss. A decrease arising as a result of a revaluation is recognised as an expense to the extent that it exceeds any amount previously credited to the revaluation surplus relating to the same asset. The revaluation surplus included in equity is transferred directly to retained earnings when the asset is used by the Group. The amount of the surplus transferred is the difference between depreciation charge based on the revalued carrying amount of the assets and the depreciation charge based on the original cost.

Property, plant and equipment (continued) i. Recognition and measurement (continued) The gain or loss on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment is determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of the property, plant and equipment, and is recognised net within other income/other expenses in prot or loss. When revalued assets are sold, any related amount included in the revaluation reserve is transferred to retained earnings. ii. Subsequent expenditure Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only if it is probable that future economic benets associated with the expenditure will ow to the Group and its cost can be measured reliably. The costs of the day- to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognised in prot or loss as incurred. iii. Depreciation Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of items of property, plant and equipment less their estimated residual values using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, and is generally recognised in prot or loss. Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives unless it is reasonably certain that the Group will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term. Land is not depreciated. The estimated useful lives for the current and comparative years are as follows: Property 20 years Leasehold land and buildings Life of mine Vehicles 3 - 5 years Plant, equipment and furniture 3 - 7 years Vertical kiln 15 years Rotary kiln 12 years Mineral properties Unit of production method Mine Development Unit of production method Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted if appropriate. iv. Reclassication to investment property When the use of a property changes from owner-occupied to investment property, the property is remeasured to fair value and reclassied accordingly. Any gain arising on this remeasurement is recognised in prot or loss to the extent that it reverses a previous impairment loss on the specic property, with any remaining gain recognised in other Comprehensive Income (OCI) and presented in the revaluation reserve. Any loss is recognised in prot or loss. However, to the extent that an amount is included in the revaluation surplus for that property, the loss is recognised in other comprehensive income and reduces the revaluation surplus within equity. f. Investment property Investment property is property held to earn rental income or capital appreciation or for both, but not for sale in the ordinary course of business, use for the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes. Investment property is initially measured at cost and subsequently at fair value with any change therein recognised in the prot or loss. Any gain or loss on the disposal of investment property (calculated as the difference between the net proceeds and the carrying amount of the item) is recognised in prot or loss. When investment property that was previously classied as property, plant and equipment is sold, any related amount that is included in the revaluation reserve is transferred to retained earnings.

Goodwill and Intangible assets i. Recognition and measurement Goodwill Goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is not amortised but it is tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. Goodwill is allocated to cash-generating units for the purpose of impairment testing. The allocation is made to those cash-generating units or groups of cash-generating units that are expected to benet from the business combination in which the goodwill arose. The units or groups of units are identied at the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes, being the operating segments. Intangible assets Intangible assets that are acquired by the Group and have nite useful lives are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation. The group’s intangible assets comprises acquired computer software programmes. Costs associated with maintaining software programmes are recognised as an expense as incurred. ii. Subsequent expenditure Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it increases the future economic benets embodied in the specic asset to which it relates. All other expenditure, including expenditure on internally generated goodwill and brands, are recognised in prot or loss as incurred. iii. Amortisation and impairment Goodwill Goodwill has an indenite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs of disposal and value in use. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identiable cash inows which are largely independent of the cash inows from other assets or groups of assets (cash-generating units). Non-nancial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at the end of each reporting period. Intangible assets Amortisation is calculated to write off the cost of intangible assets less their estimated residual values using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives and is recognised in prot or loss. The estimated useful lives of the Group’s computer software is three to ve years. Amortisation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted if appropriate. iv. Derecognition Intangible assets are derecognised when an asset is sold, exchanged or abandoned and therefore, removed from the statement of nancial position. h. Assets held for sale Non-current assets, or disposal groups comprising assets and liabilities, are classied as held-for sale if it is highly probable that they will be recovered primarily through sale rather than through continuing use. Such assets, or disposal groups, are generally measured at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. Any impairment loss on a disposal group is allocated rst to goodwill, and then to the remaining assets and liabilities on a pro rata basis, except that no loss is allocated to inventories, nancial assets, deferred tax assets, employee benet assets or investment property, which continue to be measured in accordance with the Group’s other accounting policies. Impairment losses on initial classication as held-for-sale or held-for distribution and subsequent gains and losses on remeasurement are recognised in prot or loss. Once classied as held-for-sale, intangible assets and property, plant and equipment are no longer amortised or depreciated, and any equity-accounted investee is no longer equity accounted. ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 175Investing SMARTLY i. Inventories Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost of inventories is based on the rst-in, rst-out principle. In the case of manufactured inventories, cost includes an appropriate share of production overheads based on normal operating capacity. j. Impairment i. Non-derivative nancial assets Financial instruments and contract assets • The Group recognises loss allowances for ECLs on: • nancial assets measured at amortised cost; • debt investments measured at FVOCI; and • contract assets. The Group measures loss allowances at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs, except for the following, which are measured at 12-month ECLs: • debt securities that are determined to have low credit risk at the reporting date; and • other debt securities and bank balances for which credit risk (i.e. the risk of default occurring over the expected life of the nancial instrument) has not increased signicantly since initial recognition. Loss allowances for trade receivables and contract assets are always measured at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs. When determining whether the credit risk of a nancial asset has increased signicantly since initial recognition and when estimating ECLs, the Group considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the Group’s historical experience and informed credit assessment and including forward-looking information. The Group assumes that the credit risk on a nancial asset has increased signicantly if it is more than 30 days past due. The Group considers a nancial asset to be in default when: the debtor is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Group in full, without recourse by the Group to actions such as realising security (if any is held); or the nancial asset is more than 90 days past due. Lifetime ECLs are the ECLs that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a nancial instrument. 12-month ECLs are the portion of ECLs that result from default events that are possible within the. 12 months after the reporting date (or a shorter period if the expected life of the instrument is less than 12 months). The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which the Group is exposed to credit risk. Measurement of ECLs ECLs are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash ows due to the entity in accordance with the contract and the cash ows that the Group expects to receive). ECLs are discounted at the effective interest rate of the nancial asset. Credit-impaired nancial assets At each reporting date, the Group assesses whether nancial assets carried at amortised cost and debt securities at FVOCI are credit-impaired. A nancial asset is ‘credit-impaired’ when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash ows of the nancial asset have occurred. Evidence that a nancial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observable data: • signicant nancial difculty of the borrower or issuer; • a breach of contract such as a default or being more than 90 days past due; • the restructuring of a loan or advance by the Group on terms that the Group would not consider otherwise; • it is probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other nancial reorganisation; or • the disappearance of an active market for a security because of nancial difculties.

Impairment (continued) i. Non-derivative nancial assets Presentation of allowance for ECL in the statement of nancial position Loss allowances for nancial assets measured at amortised cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets. For debt securities at FVOCI, the loss allowance is charged to prot or loss and is recognised in OCI Write-off The gross carrying amount of a nancial asset is written off when the Group has no reasonable expectations of recovering a nancial asset in its entirety or a portion thereof. ii. Non-nancial assets At each reporting date, the Group reviews the carrying amounts of its non-nancial assets (other than, investment property, inventories and deferred tax assets) to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. Non-nancial assets are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. For impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inows of other assets or CGUs. The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. Value in use is based on the estimated future cash ows, discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specic to the asset or CGU. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or CGU exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognised in prot or loss. They are allocated rst to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU, and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU on a pro rata basis. Determining whether goodwill is impaired requires an estimation of the present value of future cash ows generated from the cash generating units to which the goodwill has been allocated. The present value calculation requires an estimation of the future cash ows expected to arise and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate present value. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. For other assets, an impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised. ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 177Investing SMARTLY k. Employee benets i. Short -term employee benets Short term-employee benets are expensed as the related service is provided. A liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee, and the obligation can be estimated reliably. ii. Dened contribution plans Obligations for contribution to dened contribution plans are expensed in the prot or loss as the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or reduction in future payments is available. The Group and all its employees also contribute to the National Pension Scheme Authority, which is a dened contribution scheme. Amounts recognised as an expense during the year were ZMW1.4 million (31 March 2019: ZMW 2.4 million) iii. Dened benet plans The Group provides for retirement benets (i.e. a dened benet plan) for all permanent employees in accordance with established pension scheme rules as well as the provisions of Statutory Instrument No. 119 of the Laws of Zambia. A dened benet plan is a post-employment benet plan other than a dened contribution plan. The cost of providing the dened benet plan is determined annually using the Projected Unit Credit Method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at the end of each reporting period. The discount rate is required to be determined with reference to the corporate bond yield. However, due to the non-availability of an active developed market for corporate bonds the discount rate applicable is the yield at the reporting date on the Government of the Republic of Zambia’s bonds that have maturity dates approximating the terms of the Group’s obligations and that are denominated in the same currency in which the benets are expected to be paid. The dened benet obligation recognised by the Group, in respect of its dened benet pension plan, is calculated by estimating the amount of future benet that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods and discounting that benet to determine its present value, then deducting the fair value of any plan assets. When the calculations above result in a benet to the Group, the recognised asset is limited to the net total of any cumulative unrecognised actuarial losses and past service costs and the present value of any economic benets available in the form of any refunds from the plan or reductions in future contributions to the plan. An economic benet is available to the Group if it is realisable during the life of the plan or on settlement of the plan liabilities. Actuarial gains and losses arising from changes in actuarial assumptions are charged or credited to other comprehensive income when they arise. These gains or losses are recognised in full in the year they occur. Past service costs are recognised immediately in the prot or loss, unless the changes to the pension plan are conditional on the employees remaining in service for a specied period (the vesting period). In this case, the past-service costs are amortised on a straight line basis over the vesting period. iv. Other entitlements Some employees are on xed term contracts and are entitled to gratuity. These are recognised when they accrue to employees. An estimate is made for the liability for such entitlements as a result of services rendered by employees up to the reporting date. The estimated monetary liability for employees’ accrued annual leave entitlement at the reporting date is recognised as an expense accrual. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 45 Signicant accounting policies (continued) ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 178 Investing SMARTLY l. Provisions and contingent liabilities Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash ows at a pre – tax rate that reects current market assessment of the time value of money and the risks specic to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as nance cost. 1. Environmental rehabilitation and restoration In accordance with applicable legal requirements, a provision for site restoration in respect of contaminated land, and the related expense, is recognised when the land is contaminated. Changes in the measurement of an existing decommissioning, restoration and similar liability that result from changes in the estimated timing or amount of the outow of resources embodying economic benets required to settle the obligation, or a change in the discount rate, is accounted for in accordance with; changes in the liability alter the revaluation surplus or decit previously recognised on that asset, so that: • a decrease in the liability is (subject to (b)) be recognised in other comprehensive income and increase the revaluation surplus within equity, except that it is recognised in prot or loss to the extent that it reverses a revaluation decit on the asset that was previously recognised in prot or loss; • an increase in the liability is recognised in prot or loss, except that it shall be recognised in other comprehensive income and reduce the revaluation surplus within equity to the extent of any credit balance existing in the revaluation surplus in respect of that asset. • in the event that a decrease in the liability exceeds the carrying amount that would have been recognised had the asset been carried under the cost model, the excess is recognised immediately in prot or loss. • a change in the liability is an indication that the asset may have to be revalued in order to ensure that the carrying amount does not differ materially from that which would be determined using fair value at the end of the reporting period. Any such revaluation is taken into account in determining the amounts to be recognised in prot or loss or in other comprehensive income under If a revaluation is necessary, all assets of that class are revalued. The adjusted depreciable amount of the asset is depreciated over its useful life. Therefore, once the related asset has reached the end of its useful life, all subsequent changes in the liability shall be recognised in prot or loss as they occur. This applies under both the cost model and the revaluation model. 2. Financial guarantee contracts Financial guarantee contracts are recognised as a nancial liability at the time the guarantee is issued. The liability is initially measured at fair value and subsequently at the higher of: • the amount determined in accordance with the expected credit loss model under IFRS 9 Financial Instruments, and the amount initially recognised less, where appropriate, the cumulative amount of income recognised in accordance with the principles of IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The fair value of nancial guarantees is determined based on the present value of the difference in cash ows between the contractual payments required under the debt instrument and the payments that would be required without the guarantee, or the estimated amount that would be payable to a third party for assuming the obligations. Where guarantees in relation to loans or other payables of associates are provided for no compensation, the fair values are accounted for as contributions and recognised as part of the cost of the investment. 3. Contingent liabilities All possible obligations whose outcomes are dependent on whether some uncertain future event occurs, or a present obligation but payment is not probable, or the amount cannot be measured reliably are considered as Contingent liabilities. These contingent liabilities are reviewed on a regular basis and were appropriate an estimate is made of the potential nancial impact on the Group. As at 31 December 2021 and 2020, no potential liability was recognised.

Revenue from contracts with customers Revenue is measured based on the consideration specied in a contract with a customer. The Group recognises revenue when it transfers control over a good or service to a customer. The following provides information about the nature and timing of the satisfaction of performance obligations in contracts with customers, including signicant payment terms, and the related revenue recognition policies. Type of product/ service Nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations, including signicant payment terms Revenue recognition policies Sale of goods Customers obtain control of the products when the goods are delivered. Invoices are generated and revenue is recognised at that point in time. Invoices are payable within 30 days. Revenue is recognised in the period in which the Group has delivered products to the customer, the customer has full discretion over the channel and price to sell the products, and there is no unfullled obligations that could affect the customers’ acceptance of the products. Delivery does not occur until the products have been accepted by the customers. Type of product/ service Nature and timing of satisfaction of performance obligations, including signicant payment terms Revenue recognition policies Services rendered The Group is involved in provision of environmental consultancy services, analytical services, surveying services and radiation safety. Revenue from providing services is recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered. Revenue from providing services is recognised in the accounting period in which the services are rendered. For xed-price contracts, revenue is recognised based on the actual service provided to the end of the reporting period as a proportion of the total services to be provided, because the customer receives and uses the benets simultaneously. Contract assets primarily relate to the Group’s right to consideration for the work completed but not billed at the reporting date on the customer contracts. The Group had no contract assets as at year end. Contract liabilities primarily relate to the advance consideration received from the customer for which revenue is recognised when the goods and services are provided. The Group had no contract liabilities as at year end. n. Investment income and expenses The Group’s investments income and expenses costs include: • Dividends receivables; • Interest income; and • Interest expense. Dividends are recognised as revenue in the period in which the right to receive payment is established, which in the case of quoted securities is usually the ex-dividend date. Interest income or expense is recognised using the effective interest method. o. Finance income and nance costs The Group’s nance income and nance costs include • Gain or loss on nancial assets at fair value through prot or loss; • The foreign currency gain or loss on nancial assets and nancial liabilities; • Unwinding income or expense on price participation fees; • Unwinding expense on environmental provision; and • Borrowing costs. All borrowing costs are recognised in the prot or loss using the effective interest method. Borrowing costs attributable to xed assets during construction are capitalised NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 45 Signicant accounting policies (continued) ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 180 Investing SMARTLY p. Exploration costs The Group is involved in exploration and evaluation of mineral resources including, oil and gas and other similar non – regenerative resources in specic license areas where the Group has legal rights. This process also involves the determination of both the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting the mineral resource. General exploration and associated costs incurred in connection with exploration and evaluation of mineral resources before the technical feasibility and commercial viability of extracting a mineral resource is demonstrable, are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Exploration and associated costs for projects which are commercially viable, and it is considered that future economic benets will ow to the Company are capitalised. Accounting for exploration and evaluation expenditures Exploration and evaluation expenditures are measured at cost on initial recognition. Costs directly associated with commercially viable exploration project are capitalised until the determination of reserves is evaluated. If it is determined that commercial discovery has not been achieved, these costs are charged to expenses. Depreciation of exploration and evaluation assets Exploration and evaluation asset are depreciated using a straight-line method over a period of ve years. q. Income tax Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. It is recognised in prot or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognised directly in equity or in OCI. i. Current tax Current tax comprises the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year and any adjustment to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. The amount of current tax payable or receivable is the best estimate of the tax amount expected to be paid or received that reects uncertainty related to income taxes. It is measured using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. Current tax also includes any tax arising from dividends. ii. Deferred tax Deferred tax is recognised in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for nancial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Deferred tax is not recognised for: • temporary differences on the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable prot or loss;` • temporary differences related to investments in subsidiaries and associates to the extent that the Group is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future; and • taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill Deferred tax assets are recognised for unused tax losses, unused tax credits and deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that future taxable prots will be available against which they can be used. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benet will be realised; such reductions are reversed when probability of future taxable prot improves. Unrecognised deferred tax assets are reassessed at each reporting date and recognised to the extent that it has become probable that future taxable prots will be available against which they can be used. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 45 Signicant accounting policies (continued) ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 181Investing SMARTLY Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date. The measurement of deferred tax reects the tax consequences that would follow the manner in which the Company expects, at the reporting date, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. For this purpose, the carrying amount of investment property measured at fair value is presumed to be recovered through sale, and the Group has not rebutted this presumption. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realised simultaneously. iii. Tax exposures In determining the amount of current and deferred tax, the Group considers the impact of tax exposures, including whether additional taxes and interest may be due. This assessment relies on estimates and assumptions and may involve a series of judgements about future events. New information may become available that causes the Group to change its judgement regarding the adequacy of existing tax liabilities; such changes to tax liabilities would impact tax expense in the period in which such a determination is made r. Earnings per share The Group presents basic and diluted earnings per share data for its ordinary shares. Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the prot or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders of the Group by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the year, adjusted for own shares held. Diluted earnings per share is determined by adjusting the prot or loss attributable to ordinary shareholders and the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding, adjusted for own shares held, for the effects of all dilutive potential ordinary shares, which comprise convertible notes and share options. s. Segment reporting An operating segment is a component of the Group that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Group’s other components and for which discrete nancial information is available. All operating segments’ operating results are reviewed regularly by the Group’s Chief Executive Ofcer to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and to assess its performance. t. Leases i. The Group as a lessee A lease is dened as ‘a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to use an asset (the underlying asset) for a period of time in exchange for consideration’. To apply this denition the Group assesses whether the contract meets three key evaluations which are whether: • the contract contains an identied asset, which is either explicitly identied in the contract or implicitly specied by being identied at the time the asset is made available to the Group • the Group has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benets from use of the identied asset throughout the period of use, considering its rights within the dened scope of the contract • the Group has the right to direct the use of the identied asset throughout the period of use. The Group assess whether it has the right to direct ‘how and for what purpose’ the asset is used throughout the period of us NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) in thousands of Kwacha 45 Signicant accounting policies (continued) q. Income tax (continued) ii. Deferred tax (continued) ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc 182 Investing SMARTLY Measurement and recognition of leases as a lessee At lease commencement date, the Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability in the consolidated statement of nancial position. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which is made up of the initial measurement of the lease liability, any initial direct costs incurred by the Group, an estimate of any costs to dismantle and remove the asset at the end of the lease, and any lease payments made in advance of the lease commencement date (net of any incentives received). The Group depreciates the right-of-use assets on a straight-line basis from the lease commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. The Group also assesses the right-of-use asset for impairment when such indicators exist. At the commencement date, the Group measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments unpaid at that date, discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease if that rate is readily available or the Group’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are made up of xed payments (including in substance xed), variable payments based on an index or rate, amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee and payments arising from options reasonably certain to be exercised. Subsequent to initial measurement, the liability will be reduced by lease payments that are allocated between repayments of principal and nance costs. The nance cost is the amount that produces a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the lease liability. Payments under leases can also change when there is either a change in the amounts expected to be paid under residual value guarantees or when future payments change through an index or a rate used to determine those payments. The lease liability is remeasured only when the adjustment to lease payments takes effect and the revised contractual payments for the remainder of the lease term are discounted using an unchanged discount rate. Except for where the change in lease payments results from a change in oating interest rates, in which case the discount rate is amended to reect the change in interest rates. The remeasurement of the lease liability is dealt with by a reduction in the carrying amount of the right-of-use asset to reect the full or partial termination of the lease for lease modications that reduce the scope of the lease. Any gain or loss relating to the partial or full termination of the lease is recognised in prot or loss. The right-of-use asset is adjusted for all other lease modications. The Group has elected to account for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets using the practical expedients. Instead of recognising a right-of-use asset and lease liability, the payments in relation to these are recognised as an expense in prot or loss on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Group as a lessor As a lessor the Group classies its leases as either operating or nance leases. A lease is classied as a nance lease if it transfers substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the underlying asset, and classied as an operating lease if it does not.

Share capital Ordinary shares Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of ordinary shares, net of any tax effects, are recognised as a deduction from equity. v. Dividends Dividend distribution to the Company’s shareholders is recognised as a liability in the Company’s annual nancial statements in the period in which the dividends are approved by the Company’s shareholders. When dividends are proposed they are presented in a separate column in the statement of changes in equity. w. Mine development costs Exploration and associated costs relating to non-specic projects or properties are expensed in the period in which they are incurred. Signicant property acquisition costs and development costs relating to specic properties for which economically recoverable reserves are believed to exist are deferred until the project to which they relate is sold, abandoned, or placed into production. No costs are deferred on a property believed to be impaired in value. Mine development and property acquisition costs, including costs incurred during production to expand ore reserves within existing mine operations, are deferred, and amortised over the life of the mines. Reviews are undertaken regularly to evaluate the carrying values of operating mines and development properties. If it is determined that the net recoverable amount is signicantly lower than the carrying value, and the impairment in value is likely to be permanent, a write-down to the net recoverable amount is made by a charge to prot or loss. x. Environmental restoration Provision is made for costs associated with the restoration and rehabilitation of mining sites as soon as the obligation to incur such costs arises. Such restoration and closure costs are typical of the extractive industry and are normally accrued to reect the Company’s obligations at that time. Additional disturbances that arise due to further development/construction at the mine are recognised as additions or charges to the corresponding assets and rehabilitation liability when they occur. Changes in the estimated timing of rehabilitation or changes to the estimated future costs are dealt with prospectively by recognising an adjustment to the rehabilitation liability and a corresponding adjustment to the asset to which it relates, if the initial estimate was originally recognised as part of an asset measured in accordance with IAS 16. If the related asset is measured using the revaluation model, a decrease in the liability shall be recognised in other comprehensive income and an increase in the liability shall be recognised in prot or loss, except that it shall be recognised in other comprehensive income. Any reduction in the rehabilitation liability and, therefore, any deduction from the asset to which it relates, may not exceed the carrying amount of that asset. If it does, any excess over the carrying value is taken immediately to the statement of prot or loss and other comprehensive income. Over time, the discounted liability is increased for the change in present value based on the discount rates that reect current market assessments and the risks specic to the liability. The periodic unwinding of the discount is recognised in the statement of prot or loss and other comprehensive income as part of nance costs. For closed sites, changes to estimated costs are recognised immediately in the statement of prot or loss and other comprehensive income. The Company is required to make contributions to the government for future rehabilitation work relating to its production activities.
