Schedule of inputs to model to unwind deferred revenue


Each period management estimates the cumulative amount of the deferred revenue obligation that has been satisfied and, therefore, recognised as revenue. Key inputs into the model are:
Key input	Estimate at year end	Further information
Estimated financing rate over life of arrangement	4.6% - 5.2%	See note 5.2
Remaining life of stream	99 years	The starting point for the life of the stream is the approved life-of-mine for the US PGM operations. However, as IFRS 15 requires the constraint on revenue recognition to be considered, it is more prudent to include a portion of resources in the life of stream for the purposes of revenue recognition. This will reduce the chance of having a significant decrease in revenue recognised in the future, when the life-of-mine is updated to include a conversion of resources to reserves. As such, Sibanye-Stillwater management have determined that is it appropriate to include 50% of inferred resources.
Palladium entitlement percentage	4.5%	The palladium entitlement percentage will be either 4.5%, 2.25% or 1% over the life of the mine, depending on whether or not the advance has been fully reduced, and a certain number of contractual ounces have been delivered (375,000 ounces for the first trigger drop down to 2.25%and 550,000 ounces for the second trigger drop down rate to 1%).
Gold entitlement percentage	100%	The gold entitlement percentage will be 100% over the life of the mine.
Monthly cash percentage	18%	The monthly cash payment to be received is 18%, 16%, 14% or 10% of the market price of the metal credit delivery to Wheaton International while the advance is not fully reduced. After the advance has been fully reduced, the cash percentage is 22%, 20%, 18% or 14%. The percentage applicable depends on the investment grade of the Group and its leverage ratio. As long as Sibanye-Stillwater’s current investment grade conditions as stipulated in the contract have been satisfied, the monthly cash percentage decreases if the Group’s leverage ratio increases above 3.5:1. The balance of the ounces in the monthly delivery (i.e. 100%-18%= 82%) is then used to determine the utilisation of the deferred revenue balance.
Commodity prices	Five day simple average calculated the day before delivery	The value of each metal credit delivery is determined in terms of the contract.
