BHP Group Limited reported a remarkable 376% increase in half-year profit despite an 8% revenue dip, driven by operational excellence and strategic investments in copper and potash. The company declared a lower interim dividend, signaling a balanced approach to shareholder returns and growth.
BHP has reported a robust 10% increase in copper production for the half year ended December 2024, driven by record output at Escondida and strong performances across key assets. Despite a weather-related setback in South Australia, the company remains on track to meet FY25 guidance while advancing major growth projects and sustainability initiatives.
