- Wednesday, February 20, 8:19 AM BHP Billiton's (BHP) new CEO will take over as the miner suffers its worst profit drop in more than a decade, slumping 58% in H1 to $4.2B. Revenues fell 14%. Says it cut $944M in costs over the past half year, but did not outline a broader target for cost cuts. Believes global economy will strengthen over the next 12 months, providing support for commodities demand and pricing. Shares -2.5% premarket. Comment! [Earnings, Commodities, On the Move]
- Thursday, November 8, 2012, 8:52 AM Losses at BHP Billiton's (BHP) U.S. shale-gas operation Petrohawk Energy deepened in Q3 due to continued weakness in natural gas prices. BHP reports a loss from continuing operations before income tax of $211M for the nine months to Sept. 30 for Petrohawk vs. a profit of $201M in the year-earlier period. Comment! [Commodities, Energy, Earnings]
- Wednesday, August 22, 2012, 2:58 AM BHP Billiton (BHP): H2 profit before items -35% to $7.16B vs. consensus of $6.96B. Abandons $20B Olympic Dam copper expansion and will look at a "less capital intensive option." Won't approve any new projects until at least mid-2013. It's the biggest sign of how China's slowdown has stalled the global mining boom. (PR) 11 Comments [Earnings, Top Stories, Commodities]
- Sunday, June 24, 2012, 4:39 AM Australia's 30% mining tax is going to be a bit of a bust, predicts UBS, but it's still going to hit corporate earnings. The bank estimates that the tax will generate A$3.2B in FY 2013 and 2014, under half the Treasury's forecast of $6.5B. And citing the mining and carbon charges, the bank cut its profit estimate for BHP and Rio Tinto (RIO) by 4%. Comment! [Commodities, Earnings]
- Wednesday, February 8, 2012, 3:42 AM More on BHP (BHP) H1: Performance hurt by lower output at BHP’s Australian coal ops because of floods, strikes and lower copper output in Chile, lower metal prices, and higher costs. Gives "cautious" market outlook due to EU debt crisis, and general manufacturing and construction weakness. Shares flat in London. (PR .pdf) Comment! [Earnings, Top Stories]
- Wednesday, February 8, 2012, 3:38 AM BHP Billiton (BHP): H1 net profit -5.5% to $9.94B vs consensus of $10B, revenue +9.7% to US$37.48B. Ups dividend to $0.55 from $0.46 a year earlier. (PR .pdf) Comment! [Earnings, Top Stories]
- Wednesday, August 24, 2011, 5:25 AM Don't expect any share buybacks from BHP Billiton (BHP), CEO Marius Kloppers says on today's earnings call, noting its $12.1B acquisition of Petrohawk Energy (HK) will absorb any extra cash. Rival Rio Tinto (RIO) boosted its buyback to $7B from $5B earlier this month, but Kloppers says BHP is prioritizing volume growth and dividends. Comment! [Earnings, Commodities]
- Wednesday, August 24, 2011, 3:12 AM BHP Billiton (BHP): BHP FH2 net profit excluding items $10.98B (+62% Y/Y), misses by $0.72B. FY EPS excluding items $3.935 (+76% Y/Y). FY revenue $71.74B (+36% Y/Y). Declares final dividend of $0.55 a share vs. forecasts of $0.51. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Commodities]
- Wednesday, February 16, 2011, 7:45 AM BHP Billiton (BHP): H2 profit nearly doubles to a record $10.7B on rising iron ore and copper prices. BHP raises its interim dividend by 10% to $0.42/share and expands its share buyback program to $10B. Shares -2.2%. (PR) Comment! [Earnings]
