Scope and boundary

The report is intended to be read by both South African and international stakeholders. It covers the businesses over which Imperial has operational control, which include those in Africa, Europe, the United Kingdom, United States of America and Australia. Leased facilities are treated as group-owned for reporting purposes.

The report excludes businesses that have been sold or discontinued, and businesses that are held for sale. Impacts related to entities not operationally controlled by the group have also been excluded, as have assets that are owned but not operated by the group.

Although our operations have undergone expansion and reorganisation during the year, the size, structure, ownership and products/services are not materially different to those covered in the previous report. Our financial reporting profile has however, been changed to better reflect the operational structure of the group.

This report is rated at a C Level in terms of the GRI framework.
