In what the miner described as a “consistent, stable financial performance”, it delivered underlying earnings of $US12.1 billion ($18.5b) — up 3 per cent — for a profit of $US5.8b, which was up 14 per cent from a year earlier. Shareholders will collect $US1.77 a share. Chief executive Jakob Stausholm said Rio remained profitable as it charted a path for future growth, aiming to deliver around 3 per cent compound annual growth out to 2028 from existing operations and projects. ”We are at an inflection point in our growth, with a step change from our aluminium business and consistent production at our Pilbara iron ore operations,” Mr Stausholm said. “We have considerable growth in cashflow from the ramp-up of the underground copper mine at Oyu Tolgoi, and more value to come as our Simandou investment and Rincon lithium project proceed at pace.” More to come This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up #Rio #Tinto #holds #dividend #halfyear #profit #US5.8b This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up 0 Quote Link to comment https://hopzone.eu/forums/topic/82630-rio-tinto-holds-dividend-on-half-year-profit-of-us58b/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
