Sasol is a significant oil, gas and chemical company with operations on four continents. We are one of South Africa's largest and most successful industrial companies, producing consistently attractive returns for shareholders, as well as providing substantial tax and other revenues to the governments of the countries in which we operate. We contribute significantly to South Africa's energy supply, make a valuable contribution to the Mozambican economy and make smaller, positive contributions to the countries in which we operate in Europe, North America, Asia and elsewhere in Africa.

During our 2007 financial year, we increased group wealth creation by 37% from R31,5 billion to R43 billion. Of this amount, we distributed R11,7 billion (27%) to employees and R6,8 billion (16%) to governments in the form of taxes and
related revenue.
