Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1. Basis
of presentation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its
subsidiaries and investment in associate and the proportionate share of the accounts of the joint venture. All inter-
company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, requirements and in accordance with these requirements, the
Company does not include all the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for
complete financial statements. As a result, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto filed with the Company's annual report on
Form 20-F for the year ended June 30, 2005 (the “2005 Annual Report”), as filed with the Commission on December 15,
2005. In the opinion of management all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary
for a fair presentation of the financial position of the Company and the results of its operations, have been included.

Operating results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the complete fiscal
year.

For a more complete understanding of the Company’s operations and financial position, reference is made to the
consolidated financial statements of the Company, and related notes thereto, filed with the 2005 Annual Report.

Certain comparative figures for the 2005 interim period have been reclassified to conform to the 2006 interim period
presentation.
2.    Change in accounting for share based payments

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004), Share-Based Payment, or SFAS No. 123R.
SFAS No. 123R is a revision of SFAS No. 123 and it supersedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion, or APB, No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and related Interpretations. SFAS No. 123R requires compensation costs
related to share-based payments transactions to be recognized in the financial statements (pro forma disclosure is no
longer an alternative to financial statement recognition). That cost is measured based on the fair value of the award on the
grant date and recognized as an expense over the requisite service or vesting period. In the 2005 interim period, the
Company used the intrinsic value method of accounting for its stock option plans as defined in APB No. 25.
SFAS No. 123R is effective for the first annual period beginning after July 15, 2005, and allows two different methods of
transition, being “Modified Prospective Application” and “Modified Retrospective Application”. The Company has
adopted the new standard as of July 1, 2005 using the “Modified Prospective Application”, prior period’s financial
statements have not been restated. The adoption of this standard has not had a material impact on the Company’s
financial statements.
3.    Recent pronouncements

As described in the preceding paragraph the Company has adopted SFAS No. 123R with effect from July 1, 2005.

The Company is not aware of any recent pronouncements that will have a material impact on its financial statements.

    Recent developments

Simmer and Jack Mines Limited’s acquisition of Buffelsfontein Gold Mines Limited
On October 6, 2005, the Company concluded an agreement with Simmer and Jack Mines Limited, or Simmer and
Jack, for the sale of its shareholding in Buffelsfontein Gold Mines Limited, or Buffelsfontein (in provisional
liquidation). The agreement was conditional upon:
•       the acceptance by the High Court of South Africa and the majority of Buffelsfontein’s creditors of a scheme
of arrangement proposed by Simmer and Jack;
•       approval by the Competition Commission; and
•       the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry agreeing to substitute the Company with Simmer and Jack in
the underground water pumping directives that currently regulate the proportionate contribution of the
surrounding mines to the costs and maintenance of pumping.

Buffelsfontein, known as the Company’s North West Operations, or NWO, was placed in provisional liquidation on
March 22, 2005, following continued financial losses and a massive earthquake on March 9, 2005, which caused
irreparable damage to No. 5 Shaft.

Simmer and Jack’s scheme of arrangement involved the payment of R45.0 million ($6.7 million) to the provisional
liquidators and the fresh appointment of employees without assumption of any accumulated pre-liquidation employee
benefits.

Simmer and Jack currently manages NWO, pays its holding costs in terms of an interim agreement with the
provisional liquidators and conducts mining operations. It may offset up to R20.0 million ($3.0 million) of its
contribution to holding costs against the payment to the provisional liquidators of R45.0 million ($6.7 million).

In exchange for the transfer of its holding in Buffelsfontein, Simmer and Jack paid the Company one Rand, and
indemnified the Company against any liabilities or obligations which could arise against it in connection with the
environmental rehabilitation of Buffelsfontein, as well as the management and pumping of underground water.
Simmer and Jack has the benefit, however, of drawing down against the rehabilitation trust fund which was
transferred to the Department of Minerals and Energy upon the provisional liquidation of Buffelsfontein.

The Company remains committed to the R9.0 million ($1.3 million) social fund established to help any NWO
employees who were retrenched as a result of the liquidation and had made a provision for this amount at
June 30, 2005. In total, the Company has paid an amount of R51.5 million ($8.3 million), post-liquidation to assist the
NWO’s liquidators, most of which was used to pay workers’ wages. The Company remains Buffelsfontein’s largest
creditor with approximately R1 billion ($149.6 million) owing.

The provisional liquidators of Buffelsfontein are pursuing a valid, but as yet unquantified insurance claim for damage
and losses incurred in the March 2005 earthquake. The proceeds of this claim are not included in the scheme proposed
by Simmer and Jack.

On October 21, 2005, the scheme of arrangement for the acquisition of Buffelsfontein proposed by Simmer and Jack and
accepted by the majority of Buffelsfontein creditors, including the Company, was approved and sanctioned by the High
Court of South Africa. Buffelsfontein applied to the High Court for the lifting of its provisional liquidation, which was
granted on November 1, 2005.

    Recent developments (continued)

Black Economic Empowerment, or BEE, transaction with Khumo Bathong Holdings (Pty) Limited, or KBH
On July 6, 2005, the Company signed a Memorandum of Understanding with its black economic empowerment partner,
KBH, regarding the acquisition by KBH of a 15% stake in the Company’s South African Operations.

In addition, on July 20, 2005, the Company acquired, from the Industrial Development Corporation, all of its Crown
and ERPM debt through the issue of 4,451,219 of its shares, which at the date of issue represented $4.4 million (R28.9
million).

On October 27, 2005, the Company’s board of directors approved the black economic empowerment transaction. The
transaction has been facilitated by the Industrial Development Corporation, which agreed to a debt restructuring in
Crown.

The new structure resulted in Khumo Gold SPV (Pty) Limited, or Khumo Gold, which is an affiliate of KBH acquiring,
as a first step, a 15% interest in a newly created company,
DRDGOLD South African Operations (Pty) Limited, or
DRDGOLD SA, which acquired 100% of ERPM, Crown and Blyvoor. The Company has retained an 85% interest in
DRDGOLD SA.

In the second step, Khumo Gold has been granted an option, exercisable over the next three years, to acquire a further
11% interest in DRDGOLD SA for the payment consideration of $1.4 million (R9.3 million). This further equity tranche
will include a 6% stake to be placed in a new, proposed Employee Trust.

The Company subscribed for $4.8 million (R31.8 million) new Khumo Gold preference shares. The proceeds from these
preference shares were used by Khumo Gold to settle an existing loan to KBH of $1.2 million (R7.9 million), subscribe
for $0.6 million (R4.1 million) new preference shares in ERPM, subscribe for $0.4 million (R2.7 million) new preference
shares in Crown, subscribe for $0.6 million (R3.9 million) new preference shares in Blyvoor and subscribe for an initial
15% of the issued ordinary shares in DRDGOLD SA for $2.0 million (R13.2 million).

Consolidation of the Company’s offshore operations into Emperor Mines Limited
On November 16, 2005, the Company concluded a sale and purchase agreement with Emperor, in terms of which
Emperor would acquire the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, DRD (Isle of Man) Limited, or DRD (Isle of Man),
which in turn holds the Company’s Papua New Guinea assets, comprising a 20% interest in the Porgera Joint Venture,
a 100% interest in Tolukuma Gold Mines Limited and all of our exploration tenements in Papua New Guinea.

Implementation of the transaction required the restructuring of the Company’s offshore operations, whereby
DRD (Isle of Man) transferred the following material assets to the Company’s new wholly-owned subsidiary
DRDGOLD (Offshore) Limited, or DRD (Offshore), on January 1, 2006:
•      the Company’s 39.5% (previously 45.3%) interest in Emperor;
•      the Company’s 50.2% interest in Net-Gold Services Limited
•      the rights and obligations of a A$10.0 million ($7.6 million) convertible loan facility which DRD (Isle of
Man) had advanced to Emperor, in terms of which the Company can elect to convert such debt facility
into additional Emperor shares at A$0.30 ($0.23) per Emperor share.

On March 31, 2006, the Company sold DRD (Isle of Man) to DRD (Offshore).

4.    Recent developments (continued)

On April 6, 2006, DRD (Offshore) sold DRD (Isle of Man) to Emperor. The purchase consideration of $237.3 million
was subject to certain completion adjustments to reflect the change in the capital position of both Emperor and
DRD (Isle of Man) between October 1, 2005, which was the effective date, and completion of the transaction on April
6, 2006. The purchase consideration was settled by the issue of 751,879,699 new Emperor shares at 0.266 cents per
share (valued at $200.0 million) to DRD (Offshore) and the remaining portion in cash. After the issue of the new
Emperor shares the Company held 88.3% of Emperor.
5.    Loss per share

Loss per share is calculated based on the loss divided by the weighted average number of shares in issue during the
period. Fully diluted loss per share is based upon the inclusion of potential common shares with a dilutive effect on
loss per share.

The basic loss per share for the six months ended December 31, 2005 is based on a basic loss applicable to common
stockholders of $21.8 million and a weighted average number of outstanding ordinary shares of 303,215,809. The
basic loss per share for the six months ended December 31, 2004 is based on a basic loss applicable to common
stockholders of $61.8 million and a weighted average number of outstanding ordinary shares of 246,924,284.

There is no dilution in loss per share for the periods ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, as the Company recorded a
loss for these periods and the effect of dilutive securities in issue would have been anti-dilutive.

Litigation
Securities class action
On June 13, 2005, a securities class action was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of
New York against the Company and two of its officers. Since then, four nearly identical securities class action
complaints have been filed against the Company and the same officers. The cases have been consolidated in the
Southern District of New York. The Court appointed Lerach Coughlin Stoia Geller Rudman & Robbins as Lead
Counsel. On February 27, 2006 the Lead Plaintiffs filed their consolidated amended class action complaint. On
May 30, 2006 the Company filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. The Lead Plaintiffs must file their opposition to
this motion by July 28, 2006 and the Company will have until August 28, 2006 to file replying papers. The motion to
dismiss seeks to convince the Court that the complaint is baseless. If the motion to dismiss is refused by the Court, the
parties will then proceed with the normal exchange of pleadings in preparation for the main case. The Company will
then file its defence.
The actions are allegedly filed on behalf of purchasers of the Company’s shares during two purported class periods
spanning from October 23, 2003 to February 25, 2005. The complaints allege generally that the Company and the
individual defendants made false and misleading public statements regarding, among other things:
• the Company’s restructuring of its North West Operations in South Africa;
• the Company’s ability to reduce the negative impact of the increasing value of the South African Rand; and
• the strength of the Company’s balance sheet.
Based on the Company’s review of the complaints, management believes the lawsuits are without merit and intends to
vigorously defend the Company and its officers named in the complaints. The Company is not currently in a position
to estimate the extent of any losses that may result from the securities class action.
Tax on earnings of Company officers
The South African Revenue Services, or SARS, conducted a payroll audit on the Company’s payroll during 2002. At
the time the Company, acting on professional advice, did not deduct tax from some of the earnings of certain of its
officers, who were provisional tax payers. SARS took the view that the Company was in fact obliged to have made
these deductions and called for a full disclosure of all payments for the tax years 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002 and 2003 in
respect of the earnings of Mr. R.A.R. Kebble and Mr. M.J. Prinsloo.
If it is established that these officers had failed to declare and pay taxes on their earnings during these tax years,
SARS may have recourse for arrear taxes against the Company in terms of Section 5(2) of the South African Income
Tax Act, 1962 as amended. Whilst the Company is aware that its possible exposure could be up to R25.0 million
($3.9 million), it is, in view of the fact that the tax records of the aforementioned individuals are protected by statutory
confidence, not yet possible to determine the full extent of the exposure, if any, that the Company faces. Whilst the
Company is aware that SARS have engaged the aforementioned individuals personally, to date no tax assessments
have been made against the Company.

  Subsequent events

Placement of shares by Emperor
Emperor, a company registered in Australia and listed on the Australian Stock Exchange, or the ASX, in which the
Company holds an effective 88.3% interest through its wholly owned subsidiary DRD (Offshore) Limited, or DRD
(Offshore), a company registered in the Isle of Man, has entered into various agreements in terms of which it will raise
A$40.0 million ($30.8 million), before costs, via the placement of 100 million shares at 40 Australian cents per share
(“the placement”).

The placement has been structured as follows:
•       Tranche 1 comprises 97.6 million shares placed with international and domestic institutional investors and is
effective on June 2, 2006; and
•       Tranche 2 comprises 2.4 million shares to be placed with directors of Emperor, subject to shareholder approval,
which approval will be sought in a meeting of Emperor’s shareholders to be convened in early July 2006.

The board of Emperor has elected to undertake the placement within Emperor’s 15% limit in accordance with the ASX
Listings Rules. All of the shares to be issued under the placement will rank pari passu with existing ordinary shares.

The placement of the 100 million shares, subject to necessary shareholder approvals in respect of Tranche 2, will have
the effect of diluting DRD (Offshore)’s holding in Emperor from 88.3% to 79.7%.

Exhibit 99.2
DRDGOLD Limited's unaudited pro forma condensed financial information relating to the disposal of DRD (Isle of
Man) Limited and the acquisition of a further 48.8% interest in Emperor Mines Limited


On November 16, 2005, the Company concluded a sale and purchase agreement with Emperor, in terms of which
Emperor would acquire the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, DRD (Isle of Man) Limited, or DRD (Isle of Man),
which in turn holds the Company’s Papua New Guinea assets, comprising a 20% interest in the Porgera Joint Venture, a
100% interest in Tolukuma Gold Mines Limited and all of the Company’s exploration tenements in Papua New Guinea.

Implementation of the transaction first required the restructuring of the Company’s offshore operations, whereby
DRD (Isle of Man) transferred the following material assets to the Company’s new wholly-owned subsidiary DRDGOLD
(Offshore) Limited, or DRD (Offshore), on January 1, 2006:
•       the Company’s 39.5% (previously 45.3%) interest in Emperor;
•       the Company’s 50.2% interest in Net-Gold Services Limited
•       the rights and obligations of a A$10.0 million ($7.6 million) convertible loan facility which DRD (Isle of
Man) had advanced to Emperor, in terms of which the Company can elect to convert such debt facility into
additional Emperor shares at A$0.30 ($0.23) per Emperor share.

On March 31, 2006, the Company sold DRD (Isle of Man) to DRD (Offshore).

On April 6, 2006, DRD (Offshore) sold DRD (Isle of Man) to Emperor. The purchase consideration of $237.3 million was
subject to certain completion adjustments to reflect the change in the capital position of both Emperor and DRD (Isle of
Man) between October 1, 2005, which was the effective date, and completion of the transaction on April 6, 2006. The
purchase consideration was settled by the issue of 751,879,699 new Emperor shares at 0.266 cents per share (valued at
$200.0 million) to DRD (Offshore) and the remaining portion in cash. After the issue of the new Emperor shares the
Company held 88.3% of Emperor.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed financial information reflects the operations of the Company after the
disposition of DRD (Isle of Man) Limited, or DRD (Isle of Man), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company and the
acquisition of a further 48.8% interest in Emperor Mines Limited, or Emperor. A Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheet at June 30, 2005 and Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the year ended June
30, 2005 and the six months ended December 31, 2005 are presented below. The Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheet includes pro forma adjustments for the disposition of DRD (Isle of Man) and the acquisition of a further
48.8% interest in Emperor, assuming the transaction occurred at June 30, 2005. The Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Operations include pro forma adjustments for the disposition of DRD (Isle of Man) and the acquisition of a
further 48.8% interest in Emperor, assuming the transaction occurred at the beginning of the periods presented. A profit on
disposition of DRD (Isle of Man) is not included in the Pro Forma Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, as
this profit will be included in the Company’s earnings in the period in which the transaction was completed.
