Exhibit 99.3 Sasol Limited   Group CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICERS REVIEW Paul Victor, Chief Financial Officer   KEY MESSAGES: Steering through volatile external markets Sustainably reducing   our cost base through continuous improvement Allocating capital to enable   value-based growth Protecting and strengthening the balance sheet Making   digital a part of our DNA


Overview 2017   marked the start of an exciting era for Sasol, as we focused on driving   value-based growth to enable us to deliver superior returns to our   shareholders. Volatility in economic, political and social factors traded at   an average of US$50/bbl on the back of rate strengthened as global   macro-economic dynamics risks. Both of these factors had a significant impact   on our business, we entered into various hedging contracts prices, currencies   and interest rate changes. 54% to R20,4 billion from R13,2 billion in the   prior year. R35,15 and earnings per share (EPS) increased by 54% to profit up   billion Operating 31% Capital expenditure R60,3 Maintained investment grade   credit rating Steering through volatile external markets continued to add   pressure to Sasols results. Oil prices geopolitical factors and the rand/US   dollar exchange overshadowed increased domestic political and economic our   earnings. To mitigate the impact of financial risks on to protect the company   against volatility in commodity Against this backdrop, we showed great   resilience and character: we delivered record production volumes at Secunda   Synfuels of 7,83mt, and increased our production from our Eurasian Operations   by 6%, due largely to management turnaround programmes to increase the   efficiency of our operations. Earnings attributable to shareholders for the   year ended 30 June increased by Headline earnings per share (HEPS) decreased   by 15% to R33,36 compared to the prior year. The prior year EPS was   negatively impacted by the R9,9 billion impairment of our Canadian shale gas   assets. We continued to deliver a strong cost performance and managed to   contain our cash fixed costs to below inflation in nominal terms, despite the   additional once-off costs incurred due to the Mining strike. Through our   continued focus on cost control and the commitment of our people, we achieved   our Business Performance Enhancement Programme (BPEP) sustainable savings   exit run-rate target of R5,4 billion per annum in 2017, a year earlier than   planned. We have now closed out our BPEP programme, having achieved the   targeted sustainable savings. Going forward we are committed to further drive   continuous improvement to identify opportunities to sustainably drive down   costs and deliver improved returns to our shareholders and stakeholders. The   cash flows generated from our robust foundation businesses will enable us to   realise our growth aspirations in Southern Africa and North America. Our Lake   Charles Chemicals Project (LCCP) in the US is of strategic importance to   Sasol and will diversify our earnings base both from a geographic and   product-slate perspective. The first units of the LCCP are on track to reach beneficial   operation in the second half of calendar year 2018. The funding of the LCCP   has been secured by using cash generated from our own operations and various   borrowing facilities. The Production Sharing Agreement (PSA) project in   Mozambique is progressing according to plan, with six of the 13 wells already   drilled. We plan to use the gas from this project both in Mozambique and for   our South African operations as we explore opportunities to operate in a   lower-carbon economy and extend our gas-fed value chain operations to beyond   2034. We expect Sasols balance sheet to deleverage substantially over the   next two years, and hence we are refining our capital allocation principles   to guide how we allocate capital in a disciplined and transparent manner. To   ensure that we remain competitive and cost agile, we adopted a continuous   improvement culture that aims to enhance our systems and capital allocation   process to further reduce our cost base. This will be achieved by challenging   ourselves to work smarter and more efficiently. The use of digital   technologies and systems will be a key driver in achieving these   efficiencies. We adopted a formal and focused digital initiative to align and   guide the organisation forward. To ensure we can unlock maximum value, we   engaged with partners who know the digital industry best. Digital   technologies are transforming how we work and we aspire to deliver even more   superior returns using these.


Sasol Limited   Group Market overview Global growth remained weak, with International   Monetary Fund (IMF) estimates showing that world GDP growth slowed to 3,1% in   the 2016 calendar year from 3,4% in the 2015 calendar year. Economic growth   in the Eurozone and US was moderate, but broadly better than expected. While Chinas   economic growth stabilised, large emerging market economies such as Brazil   and Russia experienced recessionary conditions. South Africas economy grew   by only 0,3% in the 2016 calendar year, the slowest growth rate since 2009,   mainly due to severe drought conditions, weak business and consumer   confidence and policy uncertainty. Commodity and financial market volatility   persisted throughout the financial year.

Key risks   impacting our financial performance In order to assess the impact of the   operating environment on our business, it is important to understand those   factors that affect the delivery of our results. KEY FINANCIAL RISKS   AFFECTING OUR PERFORMANCE KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS Financial landscape   impact on our debt profile NET DEBT EARNINGS GROWTH EBITDA prices ETURN N   INVESTED CAPITAL GEARING Sasols integrated risk management process has   enabled us to remain resilient in the volatile macro-economic environment. We   closely monitor the progress of our strategic objectives by considering and   planning for various likely financial scenarios in determining whether the   risk is within the limits of our risk tolerance and risk appetite as well as   testing the robustness of our mitigation actions. Financial performance   Overall in 2017, Sasol has delivered a strong business performance across most   of the value chain, with our Secunda Synfuels Operations (SSO) reporting   record volumes and our Eurasian Operations delivering their highest   production volumes since 2015. Continued volatility in the macro-economic   environment, particularly the stronger rand and low oil price, adversely   impacted our financial performance. Earnings attributable to shareholders for   the year ended 30 June increased by 54% to R20,4 billion from R13,2 billion   in the prior year. Headline earnings per share (HEPS) decreased by 15% to   R35,15 and earnings per share (EPS) increased by 54% to R33,36 compared to   the prior year.

Sasol Limited   Group Included in remeasurement items is a partial impairment of our US   Gas-to-Liquids (GTL) project amounting to R1,7 billion (US$130 million) due   to the uncertainty around the probability and timing of project execution and   the reversal of a partial impairment of the Lake Charles Chemicals Project   (LCCP) amounting to R0,8 billion (US$65 million), which resulted from lower   spot discount rates and the extension of the useful life of the project to 50   years. The highlights of our operational performance can be summarised as   follows:  SSO increased production volumes by 1% to a record 7,83 million   tons;  Natref production volumes decreased by 5%. Plant shutdowns during the   first half of the year contributed to a 3% decrease in production volumes and   unplanned downtime during May 2017 led to a 2% reduction in production   volumes;  Our Eurasian Operations increased production volumes by 6% due to   stronger product demand;  ORYX GTL achieved a utilisation rate of 95%,   compared to 81% in the previous year, which is higher than market guidance;    Our Performance Chemicals business reported a 2% increase in sales volumes,   which is at the upper end of our market guidance, mainly as a result of   stronger demand and improved plant stability;  Our Base Chemicals sales   volumes increased by 3%, slightly below market guidance, due to extended   shutdowns at our Chlor Vinyls and Polypropylene plants and a fire at a third   party warehouse; and  Liquid fuels sales volumes in our Energy business   decreased by 2% due to a greater portion of production volumes from SSO being   allocated to our higher margin yielding chemical businesses and lower Natref   production volumes. Excluding the effect of the Natref downtime and lower   allocated volumes from SSO, our liquid fuels sales volumes increased by 1%.   The decrease in the effective corporate tax rate from 36,6% to 28,3% was   mainly as a result of the R9,9 billion partial impairment of our Canadian   shale gas assets in the prior year. The adjusted effective tax rate,   excluding equity accounted investments, remeasurements and once-off items, is   26,5% compared to 28,2% in the prior year.

Our net cash position decreased significantly by 44%, from   R52,2 billion in June 2016 to R29,3 billion as at 30 June 2017, mainly due to   the funding of the LCCP and the effect of a stronger closing rand/US dollar   exchange rate.

Capital   investments Over the past three years, we have made capital investments of   R179 billion, of which R60,3 billion was invested in 2017. We focused our   investment mainly in projects in South Africa, Mozambique and the United   States, with some investments in Canada, Germany and Qatar. This relates   primarily to the LCCP in the US and the Mozambican PSA project. Additions to   non-current assets (including capital accruals) (R billion) Cash utilisation   In 2017, the cash outflow of our capital investment programme exceeded the   cash retained from operating activities by R28 billion.

Capital investments   in these regions will constitute a significant portion of our total capital   expenditure over the next 10 years. Following the completion of the LCCP, we   expect our gearing to reduce and we have sufficient headroom in our balance   sheet to fund these opportunities, and provide a buffer against volatilities.   Solvency and liquidity Currently the group is maintaining a positive cash   position, conserving the groups cash resources through a renewed focus on   working capital improvement and capital reprioritisation. The group meets its   financing requirements through a mixture of cash generated from its   operations and short-and long-term borrowings. We maintain adequate banking   facilities and reserve borrowing capacities. The Sasol group is in compliance   with all of the financial covenants of its loan agreements, none of which is   expected to present a material restriction on funding or its investment   policy in the near future. We believe that cash on hand and funds from   operations, together with our existing borrowing facilities, will be   sufficient to cover our working capital and debt service requirements in the   year ahead. 0 13 14 15 16 17 Capital investments by geographic region (R   billion) 50 45 40 35 30 25 20 15 10 5 0 South Africa Europe North America   Rest of Africa 2015 2016 2017 Our capital investment in South Africa was R17   billion in 2017, which is approximately 28% of the total capital investment   for the year.

Sasol Limited   Group Debt profile Our long-term capital expansion projects are financed by a   combination of floating and fixed-rate long-term debt, as well as internally   generated funds. We endeavour to match debt to the currency of the underlying   revenue generation. Net debt increased by R26 344 million in 2017, from R30   166 million at the end of 2016. This was mainly due to the funding of the   LCCP. Our debt was made up as follows: Net debt: EBITDA (times) 2,5 2,0 1,5   1,0 0,5 0,0 (0,5) 1,13 Net debt: EBITDA Threshold* Total debt to EBITDA (R   million) 90 000 80 000 70 000 60 000 50 000 40 000 30 000 20 000 10 000 0 2,1   1,6 1,1 0,6 The average tenure of our debt portfolio is eight years. Our debt   comprises different instruments, which bear interest at a floating or a fixed   rate. To mitigate our interest rate risk, we use interest rate swaps, where   appropriate, to convert some of our debt into either floating or fixed-rate   debt to manage the composition of our portfolio. In July 2015, we entered   into an interest rate swap to convert 50% of the US$4 billion term loan   facility incurred by Sasol Chemicals (USA) LLC (to part fund the capital   expenditure of the LCCP) from a variable to a fixed rate. Our debt profile at   30 June analysed by currency was: 0,1 -0,4 13 14 1516 17 Total debt (R   million) Total debt to EBITDA (times) We have implemented a dynamic funding   plan which is based on our latest assumptions and capital requirements. We   review the plan on an ongoing basis and report on it to the Audit Committee   to ensure that we have sufficient liquidity and headroom on the balance sheet   in the foreseeable future. Credit ratings Our credit rating is influenced by   some of our more significant risks. These include crude oil price volatility,   movements in the sovereign credit rating of South Africa, our investments in   developing countries and their particular associated economic risks, the   potential for significant debt increase and the execution challenges associated   with a number of our planned growth projects if they materialise   simultaneously, as well as the risks arising from potential increases in   capital costs associated with these projects. In April 2017, S&P   downgraded South Africas sovereign credit rating from BBB-investment grade   to BB+ with a negative outlook. Based on Sasols exposure to the political   and economic risks of South Africa, the companys long-and short-term foreign   currency corporate rating was downgraded from BBB/A-2 to BBB-/A-3 with a stable   outlook. Similarly, Moodys Investors Service downgraded Sasols long-term   issuer rating to Baa3 (negative outlook) from Baa2 (negative outlook), and   raised the national scale issuer rating to Aaa.za from Aa1.za in June 2017.   As we execute our growth initiatives in the US, we expect that our debt   exposure will be biased towards the US dollar, matching the currency in which   marginal revenues will be earned. 2017 Rm % 2016 Rm% Rand US dollar Euro   Other 20 922 25 59 39170 3 063 4 7771 20 13825 58 686 73 4731 854 1 Total   debt 84 153100 80 151 100 2017 Rm 20162015 RmRm Long-term debt Short-term   debt Bank overdraft 81 405 2 625 123 79 87742 066 138534 136319 Total debt   Less cash (excluding cash restricted for use) 84 153 27 643 80 151 42 919 49   985 48 329 Net debt/(cash) 56 510 30 166(5 410) Increase in funding (proceeds   minus repayments of debt) 9 536 30 420 13 286 0,56 (0,09) 1516 17


Construction of   our 50% joint venture high-density polyethylene plant with Ineos Olefins and   Polymers USA is essentially complete and is on track for start-up during the   second half of the 2017 calendar year. Our strategic R14,0 billion mine   replacement programme, which will ensure uninterrupted coal supply to SSO in   order to support Sasols strategy to operate its Southern African facilities   until 2050, is nearing completion. The development of the Production Sharing   Agreement (PSA) licence area remains on budget and schedule. We have   successfully drilled and tested four oil wells and two gas wells, and   captured 3D seismic over parts of the PSA. Managing costs We continued to   drive our cost containment programme. The strong cost performance was   achieved by an accelerated sustainable delivery of our BPEP and RP. Our BPEP   achieved sustainable cost savings of R5,4 billion in 2017, a year earlier   than expected. This was enabled through focused management actions and the   accelerated delivery on certain key levers. We will close out the BPEP and   track the sustainable savings on key elements, such as headcount, to ensure   that we do not diminish the savings achieved. We will also apply the same   amount of diligence to our low oil price RP. Embracing digital technology to   drive effectiveness and efficiency To improve effectiveness and efficiency in   how we do business, we are focused on using technology to redefine our   customer experiences, improve operational efficiency, and embed digital   advantages throughout Sasols business. To embrace digital in the company, we   are evaluating our resources and capabilities to ensure that we can deliver   on the digital roadmap for Sasol. We have started to implement digital   solutions in some areas of our business. These include our supply chain   function and our digital catalyst pilot which is aimed at transforming how   our chemicals customers do business with us across the full value chain. Our   objective is to embed digital across our value chain to improve the   effectiveness and efficiency of our operations, whilst ensuring we remain   within our risk and governance structures. Delivering on our growth projects   Our rigorous focus on capital discipline and the implementation of our   capital allocation framework in 2017 assisted us to optimise our capital   expenditure and ensure that the project pipeline is focused and value   accretive for our shareholders. The Capital Investment Committee played a   significant role in reviewing the project pipeline and opportunities for   growth and expansion against stringent criteria. Our near-to-medium-term   strategy focuses on two regions: Southern Africa and North America.   Therefore, our focus remains on the execution of our world-scale ethane   cracker and derivatives complex  the LCCP  in the United States (US) as   well as further developing our footprint in Mozambique. Overall construction   on the LCCP continues on all fronts, with most engineering and procurement   activities nearing completion. At 30 June 2017, capital expenditure amounted   to US$7,5 billion, and the overall project completion was 74%. The total   forecasted capital cost for the project remains within the approved US$11   billion budget and project progress is tracking the approved schedule. This   budget includes a contingency which, measured against industry norms for this   stage of project completion, is considered sufficient to effectively complete   the project to beneficial operation (BO) within the approved budget. Various   savings opportunities have been identified and are continuously being implemented   to mitigate project risks. Although unplanned event-driven risks may still   impact the execution and cost of the project, we are confident that the   remaining construction, procurement, execution and business readiness risks   can be managed within the budget. We continue to monitor the economics of the   project against the backdrop of a challenging macro-economic environment. We   rely extensively on the views of independent market consultants in   formulating our views on our long-term assumptions. Their views differ   significantly from period to period, which again is indicative of the   volatility in the market. For these reasons, the internal rate of return   (IRR) for the LCCP, based on these different sets of price assumptions,   varies between a range of returns which is both higher and lower than our   weighted average cost of capital (WACC). At spot market prices, using the   last quarter of 2017 as a reference, the IRR is between 8% to 8,5%. We are of   the view that limited structural changes have occurred to market fundamentals   since February 2017, when we last published the expected long-term IRR of the   project, hence, based on our assessment, we are of the view that the IRR is   in a range of 7% to 8% (Sasol WACC at 8% in US$ terms) based on conservative   ethane prices. The cracker, however, remains cost competitive and is at the   lower end of the cost curve for ethylene producers. We will continue to focus   on factors that we can control, which are progressing the cost and schedule   of the project according to plan.
