Mr. Craig will succeed the current CEO, Mike Henry, who will step down after six and a half years in the role. The appointment of Mr. Craig follows a formal CEO succession process. Brandon brings more than 25 years of operational and corporate leadership experience at BHP to the role. He is currently BHP’s President Americas, leading the company’s growth strategy in future facing commodities across Canada, the United States and South America. During his time in the role, BHP became the world’s largest copper producer and advanced high quality growth options in copper and potash. Prior to this, Brandon led its Western Australia Iron Ore business, improving operational performance and increasing BHP’s lead as the lowest cost, highest margin major iron ore producer in the world. During Mr. Henry’s tenure as CEO, BHP established its track record of sector leading operational performance, with BHP’s Western Australia Iron Ore business securing and growing its lead as the world’s lowest cost major iron ore producer. Having joined BHP in 1999, Brandon Craig has built more than 25 years of corporate and operational leadership experience across a diverse portfolio of commodities. Brandon has been BHP’s President Americas since March 2024. In this role, he has responsibility for much of BHP’s growth strategy including in Canada, the United States and South America. Brandon has advanced BHP’s high quality growth options, increasing copper guidance for FY2026 and FY2027 and targeting around 2.5 million tonnes of copper equivalent production per year by the mid-2030s. Under Brandon’s leadership, Escondida, the world’s largest copper mine, has extended its grade and production guidance through productivity improvements and a focus on operational excellence. Brandon has overseen the creation of the Vicuña joint venture, a highly prospective project with the potential to be one of the world’s top copper and gold mines, as well as oversight of non-operated joint ventures in Brazil, Peru and the United States. BHP’s Jansen potash project in Canada is on track to begin operations in mid-2027. This will be a significant new business for BHP which diversifies its portfolio and brings in a commodity with strong long-term fundamentals. Prior to this, Brandon led its Western Australia Iron Ore business, improving operational performance and increasing BHP’s lead as the lowest cost, highest margin major iron ore producer in the world. This demonstrated Brandon’s ability to deliver strong performance across an integrated business of mines, rail and port operations. Mike will continue to serve as Chief Executive Officer to 30 June 2026 and will continue to provide support for the period to 30 November 2026, at which time his employment with BHP will cease.お知らせ • Mar 12South32 Ltd Reportedly Emerges as Contender for West Musgrave Copper-Nickel ProjectBHP Group Limited (ASX:BHP)'s non-core asset sale process is moving towards the pointy end, with South32 Limited (ASX:S32) emerging as one of the leading contenders for the prized West Musgrave copper-nickel project. The sale process for BHP's nickel portfolio has progressed beyond initial stages, with sources indicating that South32 was very focused on the West Musgrave opportunity. South32, the company that BHP spun out in 2015, is now valued at $19 billion. DataRoom reported in December that South32 was actively considering an acquisition of West Musgrave, the largest and most valuable asset in BHP's nickel portfolio being sold by Macquarie Capital and UBS. South32's interest is driven primarily by West Musgrave's copper deposits alongside its nickel resources, say sources. However, any buyer will require deep pockets, with the project demanding approximately $1 billion in capital spending and carrying about $300 million in rehabilitation liabilities. Australian-listed copper miner Sandfire Resources had previously weighed a bid but may have stepped back.お知らせ • Mar 02BHP Group Limited to Report Fiscal Year 2026 Results on Aug 18, 2026BHP Group Limited announced that they will report fiscal year 2026 results at 8:30 AM, AUS Eastern Standard Time on Aug 18, 2026Declared Dividend • Feb 19First half dividend of US$0.73 announcedShareholders will receive a dividend of US$0.73.

Anglo American declined to comment. BHP did not immediately respond to a request for comment outside regular business hours. BHP has made overtures to Anglo American in recent days, Bloomberg News reported earlier, citing people familiar with the matter, adding that deliberations are ongoing and there is no certainty of a deal. Anglo American's market capitalisation is about $41.80 billion, while BHP's is around $132.18 billion, based on LSEG data. In September, Anglo American agreed plans to merge with Teck in an all-share deal, marking the sector's second-biggest M&A deal ever. The deal came just over a year after BHP scrapped a $49 billion bid for Anglo, a deal that would have boosted the Australian miner's holdings of copper, the metal seen as essential for the transition to greener energy. If the BHP/Anglo deal had gone ahead, the combined entity would have been the world's largest copper producer, with a total annual production of around 1.9 million metric tons. The new Anglo Teck group is expected to have a combined annual copper production capacity of approximately 1.2 million tons, still second to BHP.お知らせ • Nov 14BHP Group Limited Provides Update on United Kingdom Group ActionBHP Group Limited confirmed that the English High Court has found BHP liable under Brazilian law for the 2015 Fundão dam failure. Any assessment of damages will be determined in future second and third stage trials expected to complete in 2028 or 2029. BHP intends to appeal the decision and will continue to defend the UK group action. BHP has supported extensive remediation and compensation efforts in Brazil since 2015. In October 2024, BHP Billiton Brasil Ltda (BHP Brasil) (a subsidiary of BHP Group Limited), Vale S.A. (Vale) and Samarco Mineração S.A. (Samarco)entered into a USD 32 billion comprehensive agreement with Brazil public authorities and public defenders for a full and final settlement of key claims in Brazil in relation to the dam failure (Brazil Agreement). More than 610,000 people have already been compensated in Brazil, including approximately 240,000 claimants from the UK group action who have provided releases for related claims. The English High Court decision upholds the validity of these releases which should reduce the size and value of the claims in the UK group action. BHP believes the UK group action is duplicative of remediation and compensation that has already occurred in Brazil or which is available under the Brazil Agreement. Expected cash outflows relating to Samarco remain largely aligned with the USD 2.2 billion for FY2026 and USD 0.5 billion for FY2027 included in BHP's FY2025 results announcement. Approximately USD 1 billion has been spent to date in FY2026. The Fundão dam was owned and operated by Samarco, a non-operated joint venture between BHP Brasil (a subsidiary of BHP Group Limited) and Vale. Each of BHP Brasil and Vale holds 50% of Samarco. As stated in BHP's 2025 Annual Report, these proceedings have been brought against BHP Group Limited (the parent company of BHP Brasil) (BHP), and BHP Group (UK) Limited (the former dual listed UK entity) in the English High Court by over600,000claimants seeking damages in relation to the Fundão dam failure in 2015. The decision by the English High Court follows a five-month first stage trial of the UK group action. The English High Court has found that BHP is liable on the basis that it is a 'polluter' under Brazilian environmental law and at fault under the Brazilian civil code. The English High Court rejected the argument that BHP is liable under Brazilian corporate law. The decision relates to events that occurred in the period before November 2015. The English High Court also found that the waivers and releases signed by claimants who have already received compensation in Brazilare valid. This should reduce the size and value of the claims in the UK group action. Subject to BHP's appeal, a second stage trial will decide whether losses claimed by the claimants were caused by the dam failure. This trial is currently scheduled for October 2026 to March 2027. Following any decision and appeals in that trial, a stage 3 trial may also be required, where each remaining claimant would need to prove their individual damages before BHP is required to make any payments to them. This third trial is unlikely to occur before 2028. Remediation and compensation in Brazil: The Fundão dam failure at Samarco was a tragedy that should never have happened. Since 2015, BHP Brasil, Vale and Samarco have provided USD 13.4 billion for reparation and compensation to affected people and to Public Authorities in Brazil. In total, compensation and financial aid has been paid to more than 610,000 people who have received approximately USD 6.3 billion. This includes approximately 240,000 claimants in the UK group action who have been compensated in Brazil and signed releases for related claims. Additionally, remediation of the environment affected by the dam failure is substantially complete and resettlement of the communities of Novo Bento Rodrigues and Paracatu is 98% complete. Samarco, BHP Brasil and Vale continue to implement the agreement reached with the Brazilian public authorities and public defenders in October 2024 which provides BRL 170 billion (USD 32 billion) for reparation of the impacts of the dam failure, including water sanitation, the public health system, economic recovery, local infrastructure, collective damages for affected Indigenous and Traditional Communities and Brazilian Municipalities and income support for the most vulnerable people in the affected regions. BHP remains confident that the BrazilAgreement agreed with local Brazilian authorities provides the quickest and most effective mechanisms to compensate those impacted by the Samarco dam failure.お知らせ • Nov 07BHP Group Limited to Report First Half, 2026 Results on Feb 17, 2026BHP Group Limited announced that they will report first half, 2026 results on Feb 17, 2026Buy Or Sell Opportunity • Nov 06Now 20% overvalued after recent price riseOver the last 90 days, the stock has risen 3.4% to R483.

The sale of the division has been flagged, with The Australian reporting on August 24 that the country's largest miner had quietly put the business up for sale. This, while being committed to spending $450 million a year preparing its mothballed nickel assets in Western Australia for a possible restart. UBS and Macquarie have been called upon for BHP asset sales before - both have worked on the divestment of its coal mines in Queensland in recent years. DataRoom understands that a potential plan by BHP and its advisers for what includes its unit known as Nickel West is to split assets up and sell the business off in parts. Market experts believe finding a buyer that would be prepared to pay up for the business as a whole would be no easy task. Expectations are that BHP's nickel assets may fetch hundreds of millions of dollars, although the rehabilitation costs would be a similar amount and a buyer would need to foot those. The nickel assets carry closure and rehabilitation liabilities of at least USD 900 million. A data room will be open for potential buyers to inspect BHP's WA mines, a smelter and refinery, and the West Musgrave nickel project acquired as part of the $9.6 billion Oz Minerals takeover. BHP was believed to be dusting off plans for a sale of Nickel West in 2018 through Goldman Sachs. Goldman's ran a sale process for Nickel West four years before that, around the time BHP announced it was demerging what is now known as South32. But the process was pulled after the $105 billion Australian and London-listed group failed to attract suitors ready to meet its price expectations. Nickel West is the collection of West Australian nickel assets bought by BHP with its 2005 acquisition of WMC Resources. When Nickel West was for sale last time around, Glencore was thought to be a possible suitor. Another possible contender was China's Jinchuan.お知らせ • Sep 09BHP Group Limited Announces Settlement of Samarco AU Securities Class ActionBHP has reached an agreement to settle the Australian Samarco shareholder class action. The settlement is subject to approval by the Federal Court of Australia. The Australian shareholder class action was brought on behalf of shareholders who acquired BHP shares before the Fundão Dam failure. The class action was filed in the Federal Court of Australia in 2018 on behalf of persons who acquired shares in BHP Group Limited or BHP Group Plc (now BHP Group (UK) Ltd) during the period 8 August 2012 to 9 November 2015 (the Applicants). The Fundão Dam was owned and operated by Samarco Mineração S.A. (Samarco), a non-operated joint venture between BHP Billiton Brasil Ltda (BHP Brasil) (a subsidiary of BHP Group Limited) and Vale S.A. Each of BHP Brasil and Vale holds 50 per cent of Samarco. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, BHP has agreed to pay the Applicants AUD 110 million, inclusive of interests and costs, with no admission of liability. BHP expects to recover the majority of the settlement amount from its insurers.Declared Dividend • Aug 21Final dividend of US$0.60 announcedShareholders will receive a dividend of US$0.60.

This is considered a major risk. Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits. If profits are expected to decline, then in most cases the share price will decline over time as well. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Earnings are forecast to decline by an average of 0.3% per year for the foreseeable future. Minor Risk Unstable dividend paying track record with dividend experiencing an annual drop of over 20% in the past.Declared Dividend • Feb 20First half dividend of US$0.50 announcedShareholders will receive a dividend of US$0.50. Ex-date: 5th March 2025 Payment date: 27th March 2025 Dividend yield will be 2.8%, which is lower than the industry average of 4.7%. Sustainability & Growth Dividend is covered by both earnings (55% earnings payout ratio) and cash flows (49% cash payout ratio). The dividend has decreased over the past 10 years, indicating a lack of growth and stability in payments. EPS is expected to decline by 8.7% over the next 3 years. However, it would need to fall by 39% to increase the payout ratio to a potentially unsustainable range.Reported Earnings • Feb 19First half 2025 earnings released: EPS: US$0.87 (vs US$0.18 in 1H 2024)First half 2025 results: EPS: US$0.87 (up from US$0.18 in 1H 2024). Revenue: US$25.2b (down 7.5% from 1H 2024). Net income: US$4.42b (up 376% from 1H 2024). Profit margin: 18% (up from 3.4% in 1H 2024). The increase in margin was driven by lower expenses. Revenue is expected to decline by 2.1% p.a. on average during the next 3 years, while revenues in the Metals and Mining industry in South Africa are expected to grow by 6.9%. Over the last 3 years on average, earnings per share has fallen by 30% per year but the company’s share price has only fallen by 2% per year, which means it has not declined as severely as earnings.New Risk • Feb 18New major risk - Revenue and earnings growthEarnings are forecast to decline by an average of 0.2% per year for the foreseeable future.

BHP intends to review the decision to temporarily suspend Western Australia Nickel by February 2027. The decision to temporarily suspend Western Australia Nickel follows oversupply in the global nickel market. Forward consensus nickel prices over the next half of the decade have fallen sharply reflecting strong growth of alternative low-cost nickel supply. During the temporary suspension, BHP will continue to support its workforce and local communities. BHP will invest approximately USD 300 million (AUD 450 million) per annum following completion of a transition period to support a potential re-start of Western Australia Nickel. The transition period will commence from July 2024. Operations will be suspended in October 2024 and handover activities for temporary suspension will be completed by December 2024. During the temporary suspension, BHP will: suspend mining and processing operations at the Kwinana nickel refinery, Kalgoorlie nickel smelter and Mt Keith and Leinster operations and the development of the West Musgrave project; implement a care and maintenance program of work to ensure the ongoing safety and integrity of its mines and related infrastructure; continue to invest in exploration to extend the resource life of Western Australia Nickel and preserve optionality; and offer Western Australia Nickel frontline employees another role within BHP or the choice of a redundancy and establish a AUD 20 million Community Fund to support local communities during the temporary suspension.Buy Or Sell Opportunity • Jul 02Now 18% overvaluedOver the last 90 days, the stock has fallen 5.0% to R525.

The final rejection came early on the London market, with the Anglo board saying it would not accept BHP's demand to shed its shares in its South African platinum and iron ore mines ahead of any merger agreement. BHP had earlier asked Anglo to extend negotiations for another week, as the mining giant tried to convince its smaller counterpart it could make a deal work. But Anglo's board on May 29, 2024 night (AEST) killed off any possibility of a friendly deal, saying it would not ask the UK Takeovers Panel for another week's extension to negotiations - required under UK corporations rules. The decision leaves BHP until the close of the London market to make a decision whether to make a binding takeover offer for Anglo, or to walk away. BHP had said it would not make a firm offer without being offered reasonable due diligence into Anglo's assets, and that it would not change the structure of its bid or increase the number of shares on offer. If BHP says it will not make a firm offer, it will be forced to sit on the sidelines for six months after putting Anglo into play - excluding one additional offer in the period, with the permissions of the UK takeovers authorities, or if a rival suitor makes an alternative bid for Anglo. Anglo said that BHP's attempts to win its support for the divestment of its dominant stakes in Amplats and Kumba Iron, both listed on the South African market, had consisted of a "limited number of socioeconomic measures that were confined in scope, impact and duration and that BHP stated would support regulatory approvals". "This approach does not sufficiently address the fact that Anglo American's shareholders would bear disproportionate execution and value risks and uncertainty over an extended period, nor does it consider that material conditions would likely be imposed in relation to both Anglo American Platinum and Kumba which would require the approvals of their respective board," the company said in a statement. BHP released a statement to the Australian market late on May 29, 2024, saying it had genuinely tried to address Anglo's concerns about its deal structure, which would require Anglo to shed its South African platinum and iron ore interests ahead of any broader deal, including the offer of a "reverse break fee" to allay concerns within the Anglo board at the risks of the transaction falling on its own shareholders. "BHP believes that the proposed measures it has put forward provide substantial risk protection for Anglo American shareholders and supplement the significant value uplift that Anglo American shareholders will receive from the potential combination," the company said. "BHP believes a further extension of the deadline is required to allow for further engagement on its proposal." BHP's move to get back on the front foot was aimed at ramping up pressure on the Anglo board, and was pitched directly at joint Anglo and BHP shareholders the mining giant believes want to see a deal done. On May 29, 2024, BHP released for the first time details of the raft of measures it has proposed to allay the Anglo board's concerns that its shareholders will carry the risk and costs of spinning out assets. The mining giant believed the decision will highlight its concerns that Anglo's board is using its criticism of BHP's proposed deal structure as a regulatory defence, and has no real intention of negotiating a friendly takeover agreement. Anglo rejected BHP's latest sweetened $75bn offer a week ago, dropping complaints the offer undervalued its copper and coking coal assets, but saying its board had unanimously rejected the latest bid due to concerns its shareholders would wear all of the risks of spinning out its shareholdings in Amplats and Kumba Iron. Anglo's concerns centred around not just the distribution of its dominant shareholding position in both South African-listed companies, but also around the change of ultimate control that might trigger the need to negotiate with the South African government over public interest tests. At stake is the fate of the 1800 workers in Anglo's corporate offices in the country, as well as potential requirements for an increased shareholding in Amplats and Kumba for employees under the country's black economic empowerment policy framework. On May 29, 2024, BHP said it had offered direct responses to Anglo's concerns, including offering the South African government a three-year guarantee to maintain staffing levels in the country, sharing any costs of employee share schemes, and establishing a mining centre of excellence in the country to train mine workers and to conduct research and development for BHP's global mining operations. BHP's public statements come as South Africans head to the polls in national elections that could see the ruling African National Congress forced into power sharing arrangements for the first time since the end of the former apartheid regime.お知らせ • May 31BHP Provides Update on its Offer for Anglo AmericanOn 22 May 2024, BHP Group Limited (ASX: BHP) announced a revised proposal for a combination with Anglo American plc (LSE:AAL) and the Board of Anglo American announced an extension to the deadline for BHP to make an offer for Anglo American to 29 May 2024 (Deadline). BHP welcomed the extension as it provided the opportunity to engage with Anglo American about its concerns regarding BHP's proposal. Since the extension to the deadline, BHP has continued to work extensively to address those matters. This has included several engagements with Anglo American and its advisers. BHP's response to Anglo American: BHP has proposed a range of socioeconomic measures intended to address Anglo American's concerns regarding our proposed transaction structure. BHP is confident that the measures it has proposed to the Board of Anglo American provide a viable pathway to resolve the matters raised by Anglo American and would support South African regulatory approvals. BHP has considered market precedent transactions and believes that the risks are quantifiable and manageable. BHP has already factored the costs associated with these risks into the offer ratio of its proposal. BHP believes that these proposed measures would provide greater economic benefits to South Africa than Anglo American's Accelerating Value Delivery plan, mitigate perceived value and completion uncertainty and ensure that any costs are not borne disproportionately by Anglo American shareholders. BHP has indicated that it would also be willing to discuss an appropriate reverse break fee, payable by BHP, on failure to achieve the necessary anti-trust and regulatory approvals, including in South Africa. Socio-economic initiatives in South Africa: BHP's proposal comprises an all-share offer for Anglo American subject to the pro-rata distribution by Anglo American of its entire shareholdings in Anglo Platinum and Kumba Iron Ore to Anglo American shareholders immediately before completion of the scheme of arrangement. Anglo Platinum and Kumba Iron Ore would continue to be listed in South Africa on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE). BHP intends to maintain its listing on the JSE and is expected to achieve a JSE index weighting of approximately 5% on completion. BHP continues to believe that there would be clear benefits to the South African government, economy and communities from Anglo Platinum and Kumba Iron Ore becoming major standalone entities listed on the JSE with significant increased JSE index weightings. Anglo Platinum and Kumba Iron Ore would be independently run by established South African-based management teams. As self-governed companies, Anglo Platinum and Kumba Iron Ore would be better placed to reinvest cash flow and capital directly into South Africa. As part of its increased presence in South Africa, BHP intends to continue and build on Anglo American's legacy of social investment and value creation in South Africa including by: if required to secure regulatory approvals, BHP sharing in the costs of increased South African employee ownership of the listed South African businesses; ?establishing a Mining Centre of Excellence to support R&D, training and promotion of South Africa as a premier mining destination; maintaining current employment levels at Anglo American's Johannesburg office to provide ongoing support to the South African assets to be acquired and other assets in the combined group, as well as to Anglo Platinum and Kumba as a third party service provider; ?maintaining funding for Anglo American's charitable commitments in South Africa at the current level; supporting local South African procurement and engagement across mining industry sectors and regions; ensuring continued access for South African investors through the listing of BHP on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange; and maintaining Anglo American's existing South African Reserve Bank (SARB) and National Treasury undertakings, to the maximum extent practicable. These proposed measures are expected to be maintained for a period of at least three years. BHP believes that its proposal will contribute to South Africa and allow the benefits of South African mining to be shared with more South African stakeholders. Next steps: BHP believes that the proposed measures it has put forward provide substantial risk protection for Anglo American shareholders and supplement the significant value uplift that Anglo American shareholders will receive from the potential combination. BHP believes a further extension of the Deadline is required to allow for further engagement on its proposal. This announcement does not amount to a firm intention to make an offer and there can be no certainty that an offer will be made. There is no certainty that any form of agreement or transaction will be reached or concluded. Nothing in this announcement constitutes or intended to constitute a post-offer undertaking for the purposes of Rule 19.5 of the UK Code. This announcement is being made by BHP without prior agreement or approval of Anglo American. Authorised for release by Stefanie Wilkinson, Group Company Secretary.お知らせ • May 30+ 1 more updateBHP Group Confirms it Does Not Intend to Make a Firm Offer for Anglo AmericanBHP Group Limited (ASX:BHP) confirmed that it does not intend to make a firm offer for Anglo American plc (LSE:AAL) (Anglo American). This is a statement to which Rule 2.8 of the UK Code applies. As is customary, BHP reserves the right to set aside this statement in the following circumstances that are set out under Note 2 to Rule 2.8 of the UK Code: (a) The Board of Directors of Anglo American agreeing to this statement being set aside; (b) a third party announcing a firm intention to make an offer for Anglo American; (c) Anglo American announcing a Rule 9 waiver proposal (as described in Note 1 of the Notes on Dispensations from Rule 9 of the UK Code) or a reverse takeover (as defined in the UK Code); or (d) the UK Panel on Takeovers and Mergers determining that there has been a material change of circumstances. Mike Henry, BHP Chief Executive Officer said: ‘BHP will not be making a firm offer for Anglo American. BHP is committed to its Capital Allocation Framework and maintains a disciplined approach to mergers and acquisitions. While we believed that our proposal for Anglo American was a compelling opportunity to effectively grow the pie of value for both sets of shareholders, we were unable to reach agreement with Anglo American on our specific views in respect of South African regulatory risk and cost and, despite seeking to engage constructively and numerous requests, we were not able to access from Anglo American key information required to formulate measures to address the excess risk they perceive We remain of the view that our proposal was the most effective structure to deliver value for Anglo American shareholders, and we are confident that, working together with Anglo American, we could have obtained all required regulatory approvals, including in South Africa.’ On 20 May 2024, BHP submitted an increased and final offer ratio to the Board of Directors of Anglo American as part of its revised proposal for a potential combination with Anglo American to be effected by way of a scheme of arrangement. The final offer ratio represented a total value of £31.11 per BHP's announcement on 22 May 2024 (based on the closing share prices of BHP as at 22 May 2024 and Anglo Platinum and Kumba as at 21 May 2024). The revised proposal followed BHP's proposals for a potential combination with Anglo American which were submitted to the Board of Anglo American on 7 May 2024 and 16 April 2024. BHP's revised proposal was rejected by the Board of Anglo American on 22 May 2024. BHP is disappointed that the Board of Anglo American has decided not to continue discussions with BHP to resolve its concerns regarding the implementation of BHP's revised proposal. BHP had been engaging with Anglo American on these topics since the submission of its revised proposal on 20 May and believes that there was a viable pathway available to resolve Anglo American's concerns. In particular, Anglo American's assertion that value risk under our proposal would be exclusively for the account of Anglo American shareholders is not accurate. As stated in our announcement today and to Anglo American directly, BHP's intent was to share in the cost associated with certain conditions that may be imposed as part of South African regulatory approvals. BHP's revised proposal would have offered immediate value for Anglo American shareholders and would have allowed Anglo American shareholders to benefit from the long-term value created from combining Anglo American and BHP. This announcement is being made by BHP without Anglo American's prior agreement or approval.お知らせ • May 25Anglo American Rejects Further BHP ProposalOn 20 May 2024, the Board of Anglo American plc (LSE:AAL) received a third unsolicited, non-binding and highly conditional takeover proposal from BHP Group Limited (ASX: BHP) (the "Latest Proposal"). Under the terms of the Latest Proposal, for each Anglo American share owned, Anglo American's shareholders would receive: 0.8860 BHP shares; and Ordinary shares in each of Anglo American Platinum Limited and of Kumba Iron Ore Limited (distributed by Anglo American to its shareholders in direct proportion to Anglo American's shareholders' effective interest in Anglo American Platinum Limited and Kumba Iron Ore Limited). The terms of the Latest Proposal represent a total value, based on undisturbed share prices as at market close on 23 April 2024, of approximately £29.34 per Anglo American share. On the basis of the 30-day and 90-day volume weighted average share prices up to and including 23 April 2024, the terms of the Latest Proposal would value Anglo American at £29.91 and £29.67 per Anglo American share, respectively. The Latest Proposal includes the same highly complex structure as the proposals previously rejected on 26 April 2024 and 13 May 2024. This involves an all-share offer for Anglo American by BHP, with a requirement for Anglo American to complete two separate demergers of its entire shareholdings in Anglo American Platinum Limited and Kumba Iron Ore Limited to Anglo American's shareholders. The all-share offer and required demergers would be inter-conditional. The Board and its advisers have engaged with BHP and its advisers on multiple occasions with a particular focus on the proposed structure and associated risks. The Board continues to believe that there are serious concerns with the structure given that it is likely to result in material completion risk and value impact that disproportionately falls on Anglo American's shareholders. The requirement to pursue two contemporaneous demergers of publicly listed companies alongside a takeover and the inter-conditional nature of the three transactions is unprecedented, and as a result of a takeover would result in additional material approvals and conditions, particularly in South Africa. BHP's Latest Proposal is therefore in clear contrast to Anglo American's simpler standalone plan to accelerate value delivery announced on 14 May 2024 and its proposal to demerge Anglo American Platinum Limited - a single demerger that Anglo American has a proven track record in delivering. The complex process proposed by BHP is likely to take 18 months or more to complete and carries significant execution and completion risks relating to both value and time. The key elements of Anglo American's standalone plan to accelerate value delivery are expected to be substantively complete by that stage. The approvals required in relation to BHP's Latest Proposal will also likely result in conditions being imposed that disproportionately impact Anglo American Platinum Limited and Kumba Iron Ore Limited and, therefore, Anglo American's shareholders. In addition, the Board has also considered detailed feedback from its extensive engagement with Anglo American's shareholders and stakeholders since the release of Anglo American's accelerated plans for delivery of its standalone strategy on 14 May 2024, continuing its engagement with its shareholders since the approach from BHP became public on 24 April 2024. The Board is confident in Anglo American's standalone future prospects and believes that Anglo American has set out a clear pathway to deliver the acceleration of its strategy detailed on 14 May 2024, that is expected to unlock significant and undiluted value for Anglo American's shareholders. Taking the above considerations into account, the Board of Anglo American has unanimously rejected the Latest Proposal. In order to allow for further engagement with BHP on the mitigation of risks and value impact on Anglo American's shareholders that are inherent in its Latest Proposal, Anglo American announces that, in accordance with Rule 2.6(c) of the Code, the Board has requested, and the Panel on Takeovers and Mergers (the "Panel") has consented to, an extension to the date by which BHP is required either to announce a firm intention to make an offer for Anglo American in accordance with Rule 2.7 of the Code or to announce that it does not intend to make an offer, in which case the announcement will be treated as a statement to which Rule 2.8 of the Code applies. Such announcement must now be made by not later than 5.00 p.m. on 29 May 2024. This deadline will only be extended with the consent of the Panel in accordance with Rule 2.6(c) of the Code. Stuart Chambers, Chairman of Anglo American, commented: "The Board is confident in Anglo American's standalone future prospects and believes that Anglo American has set out a clear pathway and timeframe to deliver the acceleration of its strategy to unlock significant and undiluted value for Anglo American's shareholders. The Board considered BHP's Latest Proposal carefully, concluded it does not meet expectations of value delivered to Anglo American's shareholders, and has unanimously rejected it. In particular, it does not address the Board's concerns about the structure, which results in significant complexity, execution risks, an extended timeline to completion and consequently has the potential for material value leakage to be disproportionately suffered by Anglo American's shareholders. Multiple engagements with the BHP team have not yet been able to resolve the concerns on these issues. "However, the Board is willing to continue to engage with BHP and its advisers on this topic and has therefore requested a one week extension to the PUSU deadline which has been consented to by the Panel." There can be no certainty that any firm offer will be made and, save as set out in BHP's announcement dated 13 May 2024 (and subject to the reservations set out therein), there can be no certainty as to the terms on which an offer may be made.お知らせ • May 16BHP Chief Urges Anglo Investors to Consider Takeover BenefitsBHP Group Limited (ASX:BHP) Chief Executive Mike Henry said that Anglo American plc (LSE:AAL) investors need to consider the merits of his company's bid for its smaller London-listed rival, seeking to drum up support for a proposal that has been rejected twice. The CEO of the world's biggest listed mining group told investors at a metals and mining conference in Miami that Anglo shareholders must make a "determination" on the benefits of a combination of the two companies and which team they think has a better track record of executing projects and delivering returns to investors. Anglo CEO Duncan Wanblad on May 14, 2024 outlined plans to refocus on energy transition metal copper while spinning off or selling its less profitable coal, nickel, diamond and platinum businesses. Henry, meanwhile, emphasised the merits of BHP's $43 billion bid and dismissed concerns that the proposed deal would be complex to execute. "At the end of the day, it's going to be up to shareholders. They have to look at the plans, decide which one they believe is going to create the greatest value soonest," he said. "And they have to make a determination as to the likelihood of execution of those plans, including which team they believe is more capable and has a better track record of execution. It's that simple." The Anglo board argues that the proposed deal undervalues the company and is difficult to execute, with BHP planning to demerge two of Anglo's South African assets prior to a takeover. BHP chief Henry, however, says the company has sufficient experience to execute complex transactions, having divested South32 (S32.AX), opens new tab assets in South Africa. Henry said he was disappointed with the Anglo board's continued refusal to engage, adding that BHP would have preferred to continue talking in private. "Our strong preference was to be able to hold these discussions with Anglo in private," Henry said. "Rather unfortunately, it got leaked." While BHP is intent on growing its copper business, it would maintain its disciplined approach to capital allocation, Henry said, adding that the copper industry remains fragmented. "We do not take capital discipline lightly, we will remain disciplined and we have demonstrated that in previous instances," he said.お知らせ • Apr 26+ 1 more updateBHP Group Launches Bid to Acquire Anglo AmericanBritish mining heavyweight Anglo American plc (LSE:AAL) confirmed it was "reviewing" a takeover bid from its larger Australian rival BHP Group Limited (ASX: BHP), in what would rank as one of the sector's biggest deals in years. Anglo American did not disclose the price of the "unsolicited" offer, which must be sewn up before a deadline of May 22. BHP's offer would first hinge on Anglo American splitting off its platinum and iron ore operations in South Africa. Anglo's platinum operations are listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange under Anglo American Platinum Ltd, as are its iron ore operations under Kumba Iron Ore Ltd. Australian-based BHP has a market value of around USD 148 billion, while London-based Anglo American has a market value of about USD 36 billion. "The board is currently reviewing this proposal with its advisers," Anglo American said in a statement. "There can be no certainty that any offer will be made nor as to the terms on which any such offer might be made. "Pending any further announcements Anglo American shareholders should take no action." BHP declined to comment.お知らせ • Apr 19Bhp Group Limited Revises Production Guidance for the Fiscal Year 2024BHP Group Limited revised production guidance for the fiscal year 2024.

DataRoom revealed earlier that suitors had until the end of the month to lock in funding for a transaction and that Whitehaven was firming as the favourite to win the contest. Left in the contest are Whitehaven Coal Limited (ASX:WHC), bidding for both assets, Peabody Energy Corporation (NYSE:BTU) bidding for the Daunia mine, BUMA bidding for the Blackwater mine and Stanmore Resources Limited (ASX:SMR) bidding for Daunia. Sources say Stanmore Coal, which is sourcing debt to fund its bid with help from Grant Samuel, is believed to be the most conservative of the bidders when it comes to price. UBS has put a USD 2.5 billion value on Blackwater, which analysts say has a 50-year mine life, and a USD 800 million value on Daunia, which they believe has a 17-year mine life, with USD 1 billion of rehab liabilities on the former and USD 250 million on the latter. Some Whitehaven shareholders are warming to the prospect of the coal miner buying both Daunia and Blackwater in a deal that may top USD 3 billion. DataRoom first revealed Whitehaven was bidding for both mines on August 24, and the company confirmed this on Monday. It also reiterated comments made while reporting its results last month that it had suspended its share buyback as it considered growth opportunities.お知らせ • Aug 12Coronado Reportedly Exits BHP Coal RaceCoronado Global Resources Inc. (ASX:CRN) is understood to have pulled out of the contest to buy BHP Group Limited (ASX:BHP)'s Queensland coal mines. Sources say that the country's largest miner, BHP, received high-priced bids for its two coal mines Daunia and Blackwater when they landed on 09 August 2023. A source said one of the competitors among the six shortlisted parties had dropped out of the competition, and insiders were pointing to Coronado on 10 August 2023. It comes after DataRoom reported that there had been talk Coronado was slowing in its pursuit of the coal mines in the final stage of the race. Other parties contending for the assets are Whitehaven Coal, advised by UBS and Bank of America; Peabody Energy, advised by Goldman Sachs; Yancoal, advised by RBC; Stanmore Coal; and BUMA. Earlier, the expectation was that the mines were set to sell for a combined $3 billion-$5 billion ($4.5 billion -$7.5 billion). The Macquarie Capital-advised BHP is considering a sale of the assets separately. Whitehaven's focus is Daunia, sources say, while Coronado's focus was believed to be Blackwater, with its own Curragh open-cut coal mine 30km to the north in central Queensland. But this week Coronado, which has mines in Australia and the US, delivered a disappointing earnings result.お知らせ • Jul 25Suitors Reportedly Prepare to Lob Bids for ChaliceSuitors lining up for $2.3 billion nickel explorer and developer Chalice Mining Limited (ASX:CHN) are preparing to lob their final offers by August 21, sources say. The company's main project is its Julimar nickel and copper project in Western Australia's Avon region, 70km northeast of Perth. The group's Gonneville deposit is one of the world's nickel sulphide discoveries. It reported a net loss of $33.7 million for the six months to December and is looking for a backer to fund its development through Standard Chartered. But some believe the process could result in an acquisition of the company as a whole. Sources say Chalice is open to several options including a partial sale of about 20% of the group, or 100%. The king maker is Founding Chairman Tim Goyder, who owns just over 8% of the business. He has proved a tough negotiator on price, based on the experience of Albemarle, which has been courting Liontown. Mr. Goyder, who stepped down as the Chairman of Chalice Mining in 2021, also owns 15% of Liontown. Albemarle, the world's lithium producer, offered $5.5 billion for that company, currently worth $6 billion, but that was rejected. Anglo American plc (LSE:AAL), South32 Limited (ASX:S32), BHP Group Limited (ASX:BHP) and Rio Tinto Limited are expected to be lining up for Chalice's platinum metals assets. Some experts say the big players will be obliged to look at the asset, simply given the size of the resource, but the project is not yet in production and will take a long time from an environment point of view. The world's platinum producer, Sibanye Stillwater Limited (JSE:SSW), could also be in the mix.お知らせ • Jul 22Daunia Mine Reportedly Bid Possible Without Whitehaven Equity RaisingWhitehaven Coal Limited (ASX:WHC) investors nervous about the miner embarking on an equity raising to buy BHP Group Limited (ASX:BHP)'s coalmining portfolio may be worrying unnecessarily. BHP is understood to be open to selling the two mines it has on offer separately. The understanding is that Whitehaven's interest is in the Daunia mine, which is close to its Winchester South mine. Whitehaven would probably be able to buy the asset without going cap in hand to investors in an equity raising. On a call to investors this week about its June quarter report, Whitehaven boss Paul Flynn said the company was able to source bank debt for metallurgical coal assets, but thermal coal was a challenge as its $1 billion revolving finance facility had not been renewed. Blackwater - the other asset for sale by BHP - produces thermal coal as well as metallurgical coal, while Daunia produces metallurgical coal. They are two of nine metallurgical coal mines in Queensland's Bowen Basin that are part of the joint venture, split 50-50 between BHP and Mitsubishi Development. Earlier in the contest, some were betting that Coronado would buy Blackwater, given its operations, including workforce, roads and ports are close by, while Peabody Energy was seen as the most likely acquirer of Daunia. Yet that was early on, before Yancoal turned up, looking like it would easily overcome other suitors, and some believe Coronado's interest is cooling. But if the assets can be sold separately, they may be within in the grasp of groups such as Coronado and Peabody, which would enjoy synergies. Macquarie Capital is working on the sale, while UBS is believed to be advising Whitehaven Coal and RBC Yancoal. Six parties are understood to have been shortlisted to buy the assets: Yancoal, Coronado, Stanmore Coal, BUMA, Peabody Energy and Whitehaven Coal.株主還元BHGZA Metals and MiningZA 市場7D-1.8%-8.0%-1.7%1Y55.8%56.1%19.7%株主還元を見る業界別リターン: BHG過去 1 年間で56.1 % のリターンをもたらしたZA Metals and Mining業界と一致しました。リターン対市場: BHG過去 1 年間で19.7 % の収益を上げたZA市場を上回りました。価格変動Is BHG's price volatile compared to industry and market?BHG volatilityBHG Average Weekly Movement4.3%Metals and Mining Industry Average Movement9.0%Market Average Movement5.0%10% most volatile stocks in ZA Market10.7%10% least volatile stocks in ZA Market3.3%安定した株価: BHG 、 ZA市場と比較して、過去 3 か月間で大きな価格変動はありませんでした。時間の経過による変動: BHGの 週次ボラティリティ ( 4% ) は過去 1 年間安定しています。会社概要設立従業員CEO（最高経営責任者ウェブサイト185140,009Mike Henrywww.bhp.comBHPグループ・リミテッドはオーストラリア、ヨーロッパ、中国、日本、インド、韓国、その他のアジア、北米、南米、そして国際的な資源会社として事業を展開している。銅、鉄鉱石、石炭の各セグメントで事業を展開している。銅、ウラン、金、亜鉛、鉛、モリブデン、銀、鉄鉱石、コバルト、冶金・エネルギー用石炭の採掘を行っている。また、ニッケルの採掘、製錬、精製、カリの開発活動も行っている。さらに、曳船、貨物輸送、マーケティング・トレーディング、マーケティング・サポート、財務、管理、その他のサービスも提供している。同社は1851年に設立され、オーストラリアのメルボルンに本社を置いている。もっと見るBHP Group Limited 基礎のまとめBHP Group の収益と売上を時価総額と比較するとどうか。BHG 基礎統計学時価総額R3.53t収益（TTM）R168.29b売上高(TTM)R887.03b21.0xPER（株価収益率4.0xP/SレシオBHG は割高か？公正価値と評価分析を参照収益と収入最新の決算報告書（TTM）に基づく主な収益性統計BHG 損益計算書（TTM）収益US$53.99b売上原価US$9.13b売上総利益US$44.86bその他の費用US$34.61b収益US$10.24b直近の収益報告Dec 31, 2025次回決算日Aug 17, 2026一株当たり利益（EPS）2.02グロス・マージン83.09%純利益率18.97%有利子負債／自己資本比率46.3%BHG の長期的なパフォーマンスは？過去の実績と比較を見る配当金3.1%現在の配当利回り66%配当性向View Valuation企業分析と財務データの現状データ最終更新日（UTC時間）企業分析2026/05/22 03:46終値2026/05/21 00:00収益2025/12/31年間収益2025/06/30データソース企業分析に使用したデータはS&P Global Market Intelligence LLC のものです。本レポートを作成するための分析モデルでは、以下のデータを使用しています。データは正規化されているため、ソースが利用可能になるまでに時間がかかる場合があります。パッケージデータタイムフレーム米国ソース例会社財務10年損益計算書キャッシュ・フロー計算書貸借対照表SECフォーム10-KSECフォーム10-Qアナリストのコンセンサス予想+プラス3年予想財務アナリストの目標株価アナリストリサーチレポートBlue Matrix市場価格30年株価配当、分割、措置ICEマーケットデータSECフォームS-1所有権10年トップ株主インサイダー取引SECフォーム4SECフォーム13Dマネジメント10年リーダーシップ・チーム取締役会SECフォーム10-KSECフォームDEF 14A主な進展10年会社からのお知らせSECフォーム8-K* 米国証券を対象とした例であり、非米国証券については、同等の規制書式および情報源を使用。特に断りのない限り、すべての財務データは1年ごとの期間に基づいていますが、四半期ごとに更新されます。これは、TTM（Trailing Twelve Month）またはLTM（Last Twelve Month）データとして知られています。詳細はこちら。分析モデルとスノーフレーク本レポートを生成するために使用した分析モデルの詳細は当社のGithubページでご覧いただけます。また、レポートの使用方法に関するガイドやYoutubeのチュートリアルも掲載しています。シンプリー・ウォールストリート分析モデルを設計・構築した世界トップクラスのチームについてご紹介します。業界およびセクターの指標私たちの業界とセクションの指標は、Simply Wall Stによって6時間ごとに計算されます。アナリスト筋BHP Group Limited 20 これらのアナリストのうち、弊社レポートのインプットとして使用した売上高または利益の予想を提出したのは、 。アナリストの投稿は一日中更新されます。60 アナリスト機関David ColemanArgus Research CompanyAyan GhoshAvior Capital MarketsCaroline LearmonthBarclays57 その他のアナリストを表示

お知らせ • Mar 18+ 1 more updateBHP Group Limited Announces Board ChangesThe Board of BHP announced that Brandon Craig will become Director of BHP Group Limited on 1 July 2026. Mr. Craig will succeed the current CEO, Mike Henry, who will step down after six and a half years in the role. The appointment of Mr. Craig follows a formal CEO succession process. Brandon brings more than 25 years of operational and corporate leadership experience at BHP to the role. He is currently BHP’s President Americas, leading the company’s growth strategy in future facing commodities across Canada, the United States and South America. During his time in the role, BHP became the world’s largest copper producer and advanced high quality growth options in copper and potash. Prior to this, Brandon led its Western Australia Iron Ore business, improving operational performance and increasing BHP’s lead as the lowest cost, highest margin major iron ore producer in the world. During Mr. Henry’s tenure as CEO, BHP established its track record of sector leading operational performance, with BHP’s Western Australia Iron Ore business securing and growing its lead as the world’s lowest cost major iron ore producer. Having joined BHP in 1999, Brandon Craig has built more than 25 years of corporate and operational leadership experience across a diverse portfolio of commodities. Brandon has been BHP’s President Americas since March 2024. In this role, he has responsibility for much of BHP’s growth strategy including in Canada, the United States and South America. Brandon has advanced BHP’s high quality growth options, increasing copper guidance for FY2026 and FY2027 and targeting around 2.5 million tonnes of copper equivalent production per year by the mid-2030s. Under Brandon’s leadership, Escondida, the world’s largest copper mine, has extended its grade and production guidance through productivity improvements and a focus on operational excellence. Brandon has overseen the creation of the Vicuña joint venture, a highly prospective project with the potential to be one of the world’s top copper and gold mines, as well as oversight of non-operated joint ventures in Brazil, Peru and the United States. BHP’s Jansen potash project in Canada is on track to begin operations in mid-2027. This will be a significant new business for BHP which diversifies its portfolio and brings in a commodity with strong long-term fundamentals. Prior to this, Brandon led its Western Australia Iron Ore business, improving operational performance and increasing BHP’s lead as the lowest cost, highest margin major iron ore producer in the world. This demonstrated Brandon’s ability to deliver strong performance across an integrated business of mines, rail and port operations. Mike will continue to serve as Chief Executive Officer to 30 June 2026 and will continue to provide support for the period to 30 November 2026, at which time his employment with BHP will cease.
お知らせ • Mar 12South32 Ltd Reportedly Emerges as Contender for West Musgrave Copper-Nickel ProjectBHP Group Limited (ASX:BHP)'s non-core asset sale process is moving towards the pointy end, with South32 Limited (ASX:S32) emerging as one of the leading contenders for the prized West Musgrave copper-nickel project. The sale process for BHP's nickel portfolio has progressed beyond initial stages, with sources indicating that South32 was very focused on the West Musgrave opportunity. South32, the company that BHP spun out in 2015, is now valued at $19 billion. DataRoom reported in December that South32 was actively considering an acquisition of West Musgrave, the largest and most valuable asset in BHP's nickel portfolio being sold by Macquarie Capital and UBS. South32's interest is driven primarily by West Musgrave's copper deposits alongside its nickel resources, say sources. However, any buyer will require deep pockets, with the project demanding approximately $1 billion in capital spending and carrying about $300 million in rehabilitation liabilities. Australian-listed copper miner Sandfire Resources had previously weighed a bid but may have stepped back.

Declared Dividend • Feb 19First half dividend of US$0.73 announcedShareholders will receive a dividend of US$0.73. Ex-date: 4th March 2026 Payment date: 26th March 2026 Dividend yield will be 1.9%, which is lower than the industry average of 4.7%. Sustainability & Growth Dividend is covered by both earnings (66% earnings payout ratio) and cash flows (56% cash payout ratio).

お知らせ • Mar 18+ 1 more updateBHP Group Limited Announces Board ChangesThe Board of BHP announced that Brandon Craig will become Director of BHP Group Limited on 1 July 2026. Mr. Craig will succeed the current CEO, Mike Henry, who will step down after six and a half years in the role. The appointment of Mr. Craig follows a formal CEO succession process. Brandon brings more than 25 years of operational and corporate leadership experience at BHP to the role. He is currently BHP’s President Americas, leading the company’s growth strategy in future facing commodities across Canada, the United States and South America. During his time in the role, BHP became the world’s largest copper producer and advanced high quality growth options in copper and potash. Prior to this, Brandon led its Western Australia Iron Ore business, improving operational performance and increasing BHP’s lead as the lowest cost, highest margin major iron ore producer in the world. During Mr. Henry’s tenure as CEO, BHP established its track record of sector leading operational performance, with BHP’s Western Australia Iron Ore business securing and growing its lead as the world’s lowest cost major iron ore producer. Having joined BHP in 1999, Brandon Craig has built more than 25 years of corporate and operational leadership experience across a diverse portfolio of commodities. Brandon has been BHP’s President Americas since March 2024. In this role, he has responsibility for much of BHP’s growth strategy including in Canada, the United States and South America. Brandon has advanced BHP’s high quality growth options, increasing copper guidance for FY2026 and FY2027 and targeting around 2.5 million tonnes of copper equivalent production per year by the mid-2030s. Under Brandon’s leadership, Escondida, the world’s largest copper mine, has extended its grade and production guidance through productivity improvements and a focus on operational excellence. Brandon has overseen the creation of the Vicuña joint venture, a highly prospective project with the potential to be one of the world’s top copper and gold mines, as well as oversight of non-operated joint ventures in Brazil, Peru and the United States. BHP’s Jansen potash project in Canada is on track to begin operations in mid-2027. This will be a significant new business for BHP which diversifies its portfolio and brings in a commodity with strong long-term fundamentals. Prior to this, Brandon led its Western Australia Iron Ore business, improving operational performance and increasing BHP’s lead as the lowest cost, highest margin major iron ore producer in the world. This demonstrated Brandon’s ability to deliver strong performance across an integrated business of mines, rail and port operations. Mike will continue to serve as Chief Executive Officer to 30 June 2026 and will continue to provide support for the period to 30 November 2026, at which time his employment with BHP will cease.
お知らせ • Mar 12South32 Ltd Reportedly Emerges as Contender for West Musgrave Copper-Nickel ProjectBHP Group Limited (ASX:BHP)'s non-core asset sale process is moving towards the pointy end, with South32 Limited (ASX:S32) emerging as one of the leading contenders for the prized West Musgrave copper-nickel project. The sale process for BHP's nickel portfolio has progressed beyond initial stages, with sources indicating that South32 was very focused on the West Musgrave opportunity. South32, the company that BHP spun out in 2015, is now valued at $19 billion. DataRoom reported in December that South32 was actively considering an acquisition of West Musgrave, the largest and most valuable asset in BHP's nickel portfolio being sold by Macquarie Capital and UBS. South32's interest is driven primarily by West Musgrave's copper deposits alongside its nickel resources, say sources. However, any buyer will require deep pockets, with the project demanding approximately $1 billion in capital spending and carrying about $300 million in rehabilitation liabilities. Australian-listed copper miner Sandfire Resources had previously weighed a bid but may have stepped back.

お知らせ • Nov 24BHP Group Reportedly Made Renewed Bid Approach to Anglo AmericanMining company BHP Group Limited (ASX:BHP) has made a renewed takeover approach to rival Anglo American plc (LSE:AAL), a source familiar with the matter told Reuters on November 23, 2025, just months after the London-listed miner agreed merger plans with Canada's Teck Resources to create a global copper-focused heavyweight. Anglo American declined to comment. BHP did not immediately respond to a request for comment outside regular business hours. BHP has made overtures to Anglo American in recent days, Bloomberg News reported earlier, citing people familiar with the matter, adding that deliberations are ongoing and there is no certainty of a deal. Anglo American's market capitalisation is about $41.80 billion, while BHP's is around $132.18 billion, based on LSEG data. In September, Anglo American agreed plans to merge with Teck in an all-share deal, marking the sector's second-biggest M&A deal ever. The deal came just over a year after BHP scrapped a $49 billion bid for Anglo, a deal that would have boosted the Australian miner's holdings of copper, the metal seen as essential for the transition to greener energy. If the BHP/Anglo deal had gone ahead, the combined entity would have been the world's largest copper producer, with a total annual production of around 1.9 million metric tons. The new Anglo Teck group is expected to have a combined annual copper production capacity of approximately 1.2 million tons, still second to BHP.
お知らせ • Nov 14BHP Group Limited Provides Update on United Kingdom Group ActionBHP Group Limited confirmed that the English High Court has found BHP liable under Brazilian law for the 2015 Fundão dam failure. Any assessment of damages will be determined in future second and third stage trials expected to complete in 2028 or 2029. BHP intends to appeal the decision and will continue to defend the UK group action. BHP has supported extensive remediation and compensation efforts in Brazil since 2015. In October 2024, BHP Billiton Brasil Ltda (BHP Brasil) (a subsidiary of BHP Group Limited), Vale S.A. (Vale) and Samarco Mineração S.A. (Samarco)entered into a USD 32 billion comprehensive agreement with Brazil public authorities and public defenders for a full and final settlement of key claims in Brazil in relation to the dam failure (Brazil Agreement). More than 610,000 people have already been compensated in Brazil, including approximately 240,000 claimants from the UK group action who have provided releases for related claims. The English High Court decision upholds the validity of these releases which should reduce the size and value of the claims in the UK group action. BHP believes the UK group action is duplicative of remediation and compensation that has already occurred in Brazil or which is available under the Brazil Agreement. Expected cash outflows relating to Samarco remain largely aligned with the USD 2.2 billion for FY2026 and USD 0.5 billion for FY2027 included in BHP's FY2025 results announcement. Approximately USD 1 billion has been spent to date in FY2026. The Fundão dam was owned and operated by Samarco, a non-operated joint venture between BHP Brasil (a subsidiary of BHP Group Limited) and Vale. Each of BHP Brasil and Vale holds 50% of Samarco. As stated in BHP's 2025 Annual Report, these proceedings have been brought against BHP Group Limited (the parent company of BHP Brasil) (BHP), and BHP Group (UK) Limited (the former dual listed UK entity) in the English High Court by over600,000claimants seeking damages in relation to the Fundão dam failure in 2015. The decision by the English High Court follows a five-month first stage trial of the UK group action. The English High Court has found that BHP is liable on the basis that it is a 'polluter' under Brazilian environmental law and at fault under the Brazilian civil code. The English High Court rejected the argument that BHP is liable under Brazilian corporate law. The decision relates to events that occurred in the period before November 2015. The English High Court also found that the waivers and releases signed by claimants who have already received compensation in Brazilare valid. This should reduce the size and value of the claims in the UK group action. Subject to BHP's appeal, a second stage trial will decide whether losses claimed by the claimants were caused by the dam failure. This trial is currently scheduled for October 2026 to March 2027. Following any decision and appeals in that trial, a stage 3 trial may also be required, where each remaining claimant would need to prove their individual damages before BHP is required to make any payments to them. This third trial is unlikely to occur before 2028. Remediation and compensation in Brazil: The Fundão dam failure at Samarco was a tragedy that should never have happened. Since 2015, BHP Brasil, Vale and Samarco have provided USD 13.4 billion for reparation and compensation to affected people and to Public Authorities in Brazil. In total, compensation and financial aid has been paid to more than 610,000 people who have received approximately USD 6.3 billion. This includes approximately 240,000 claimants in the UK group action who have been compensated in Brazil and signed releases for related claims. Additionally, remediation of the environment affected by the dam failure is substantially complete and resettlement of the communities of Novo Bento Rodrigues and Paracatu is 98% complete. Samarco, BHP Brasil and Vale continue to implement the agreement reached with the Brazilian public authorities and public defenders in October 2024 which provides BRL 170 billion (USD 32 billion) for reparation of the impacts of the dam failure, including water sanitation, the public health system, economic recovery, local infrastructure, collective damages for affected Indigenous and Traditional Communities and Brazilian Municipalities and income support for the most vulnerable people in the affected regions. BHP remains confident that the BrazilAgreement agreed with local Brazilian authorities provides the quickest and most effective mechanisms to compensate those impacted by the Samarco dam failure.

お知らせ • Sep 11BHP Reportedly Taps Pair of Banks to Explore Nickel Assets SaleBHP Group Limited (ASX:BHP) is understood to have hired investment banks Macquarie Capital and UBS for a potential sale of its nickel business. The sale of the division has been flagged, with The Australian reporting on August 24 that the country's largest miner had quietly put the business up for sale. This, while being committed to spending $450 million a year preparing its mothballed nickel assets in Western Australia for a possible restart. UBS and Macquarie have been called upon for BHP asset sales before - both have worked on the divestment of its coal mines in Queensland in recent years. DataRoom understands that a potential plan by BHP and its advisers for what includes its unit known as Nickel West is to split assets up and sell the business off in parts. Market experts believe finding a buyer that would be prepared to pay up for the business as a whole would be no easy task. Expectations are that BHP's nickel assets may fetch hundreds of millions of dollars, although the rehabilitation costs would be a similar amount and a buyer would need to foot those. The nickel assets carry closure and rehabilitation liabilities of at least USD 900 million. A data room will be open for potential buyers to inspect BHP's WA mines, a smelter and refinery, and the West Musgrave nickel project acquired as part of the $9.6 billion Oz Minerals takeover. BHP was believed to be dusting off plans for a sale of Nickel West in 2018 through Goldman Sachs. Goldman's ran a sale process for Nickel West four years before that, around the time BHP announced it was demerging what is now known as South32. But the process was pulled after the $105 billion Australian and London-listed group failed to attract suitors ready to meet its price expectations. Nickel West is the collection of West Australian nickel assets bought by BHP with its 2005 acquisition of WMC Resources. When Nickel West was for sale last time around, Glencore was thought to be a possible suitor. Another possible contender was China's Jinchuan.

The Fundão Dam was owned and operated by Samarco Mineração S.A. (Samarco), a non-operated joint venture between BHP Billiton Brasil Ltda (BHP Brasil) (a subsidiary of BHP Group Limited) and Vale S.A. Each of BHP Brasil and Vale holds 50 per cent of Samarco.

お知らせ • Jul 12BHP Group Limited Announces Western Australia Nickel to Temporarily Suspend Operations from October 2024BHP Group Limited announced that the Nickel West operations and West Musgrave project (Western Australia Nickel) will be temporarily suspended from October 2024. BHP intends to review the decision to temporarily suspend Western Australia Nickel by February 2027. The decision to temporarily suspend Western Australia Nickel follows oversupply in the global nickel market. Forward consensus nickel prices over the next half of the decade have fallen sharply reflecting strong growth of alternative low-cost nickel supply. During the temporary suspension, BHP will continue to support its workforce and local communities. BHP will invest approximately USD 300 million (AUD 450 million) per annum following completion of a transition period to support a potential re-start of Western Australia Nickel. The transition period will commence from July 2024. Operations will be suspended in October 2024 and handover activities for temporary suspension will be completed by December 2024. During the temporary suspension, BHP will: suspend mining and processing operations at the Kwinana nickel refinery, Kalgoorlie nickel smelter and Mt Keith and Leinster operations and the development of the West Musgrave project; implement a care and maintenance program of work to ensure the ongoing safety and integrity of its mines and related infrastructure; continue to invest in exploration to extend the resource life of Western Australia Nickel and preserve optionality; and offer Western Australia Nickel frontline employees another role within BHP or the choice of a redundancy and establish a AUD 20 million Community Fund to support local communities during the temporary suspension.

お知らせ • Jun 01+ 1 more updateAnglo Walks Away from BHP DealBHP Group Limited (ASX:BHP)'s $75 billion takeover bid for Anglo American plc (LSE:AAL) is all but over after the London-based miner walked away from negotiations, saying it could not accept the structure of the BHP deal on offer. The final rejection came early on the London market, with the Anglo board saying it would not accept BHP's demand to shed its shares in its South African platinum and iron ore mines ahead of any merger agreement. BHP had earlier asked Anglo to extend negotiations for another week, as the mining giant tried to convince its smaller counterpart it could make a deal work. But Anglo's board on May 29, 2024 night (AEST) killed off any possibility of a friendly deal, saying it would not ask the UK Takeovers Panel for another week's extension to negotiations - required under UK corporations rules. The decision leaves BHP until the close of the London market to make a decision whether to make a binding takeover offer for Anglo, or to walk away. BHP had said it would not make a firm offer without being offered reasonable due diligence into Anglo's assets, and that it would not change the structure of its bid or increase the number of shares on offer. If BHP says it will not make a firm offer, it will be forced to sit on the sidelines for six months after putting Anglo into play - excluding one additional offer in the period, with the permissions of the UK takeovers authorities, or if a rival suitor makes an alternative bid for Anglo. Anglo said that BHP's attempts to win its support for the divestment of its dominant stakes in Amplats and Kumba Iron, both listed on the South African market, had consisted of a "limited number of socioeconomic measures that were confined in scope, impact and duration and that BHP stated would support regulatory approvals". "This approach does not sufficiently address the fact that Anglo American's shareholders would bear disproportionate execution and value risks and uncertainty over an extended period, nor does it consider that material conditions would likely be imposed in relation to both Anglo American Platinum and Kumba which would require the approvals of their respective board," the company said in a statement. BHP released a statement to the Australian market late on May 29, 2024, saying it had genuinely tried to address Anglo's concerns about its deal structure, which would require Anglo to shed its South African platinum and iron ore interests ahead of any broader deal, including the offer of a "reverse break fee" to allay concerns within the Anglo board at the risks of the transaction falling on its own shareholders. "BHP believes that the proposed measures it has put forward provide substantial risk protection for Anglo American shareholders and supplement the significant value uplift that Anglo American shareholders will receive from the potential combination," the company said. "BHP believes a further extension of the deadline is required to allow for further engagement on its proposal." BHP's move to get back on the front foot was aimed at ramping up pressure on the Anglo board, and was pitched directly at joint Anglo and BHP shareholders the mining giant believes want to see a deal done. On May 29, 2024, BHP released for the first time details of the raft of measures it has proposed to allay the Anglo board's concerns that its shareholders will carry the risk and costs of spinning out assets. The mining giant believed the decision will highlight its concerns that Anglo's board is using its criticism of BHP's proposed deal structure as a regulatory defence, and has no real intention of negotiating a friendly takeover agreement. Anglo rejected BHP's latest sweetened $75bn offer a week ago, dropping complaints the offer undervalued its copper and coking coal assets, but saying its board had unanimously rejected the latest bid due to concerns its shareholders would wear all of the risks of spinning out its shareholdings in Amplats and Kumba Iron. Anglo's concerns centred around not just the distribution of its dominant shareholding position in both South African-listed companies, but also around the change of ultimate control that might trigger the need to negotiate with the South African government over public interest tests. At stake is the fate of the 1800 workers in Anglo's corporate offices in the country, as well as potential requirements for an increased shareholding in Amplats and Kumba for employees under the country's black economic empowerment policy framework. On May 29, 2024, BHP said it had offered direct responses to Anglo's concerns, including offering the South African government a three-year guarantee to maintain staffing levels in the country, sharing any costs of employee share schemes, and establishing a mining centre of excellence in the country to train mine workers and to conduct research and development for BHP's global mining operations. BHP's public statements come as South Africans head to the polls in national elections that could see the ruling African National Congress forced into power sharing arrangements for the first time since the end of the former apartheid regime.
お知らせ • May 31BHP Provides Update on its Offer for Anglo AmericanOn 22 May 2024, BHP Group Limited (ASX: BHP) announced a revised proposal for a combination with Anglo American plc (LSE:AAL) and the Board of Anglo American announced an extension to the deadline for BHP to make an offer for Anglo American to 29 May 2024 (Deadline). BHP welcomed the extension as it provided the opportunity to engage with Anglo American about its concerns regarding BHP's proposal. Since the extension to the deadline, BHP has continued to work extensively to address those matters. This has included several engagements with Anglo American and its advisers. BHP's response to Anglo American: BHP has proposed a range of socioeconomic measures intended to address Anglo American's concerns regarding our proposed transaction structure. BHP is confident that the measures it has proposed to the Board of Anglo American provide a viable pathway to resolve the matters raised by Anglo American and would support South African regulatory approvals. BHP has considered market precedent transactions and believes that the risks are quantifiable and manageable. BHP has already factored the costs associated with these risks into the offer ratio of its proposal. BHP believes that these proposed measures would provide greater economic benefits to South Africa than Anglo American's Accelerating Value Delivery plan, mitigate perceived value and completion uncertainty and ensure that any costs are not borne disproportionately by Anglo American shareholders. BHP has indicated that it would also be willing to discuss an appropriate reverse break fee, payable by BHP, on failure to achieve the necessary anti-trust and regulatory approvals, including in South Africa. Socio-economic initiatives in South Africa: BHP's proposal comprises an all-share offer for Anglo American subject to the pro-rata distribution by Anglo American of its entire shareholdings in Anglo Platinum and Kumba Iron Ore to Anglo American shareholders immediately before completion of the scheme of arrangement. Anglo Platinum and Kumba Iron Ore would continue to be listed in South Africa on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE). BHP intends to maintain its listing on the JSE and is expected to achieve a JSE index weighting of approximately 5% on completion. BHP continues to believe that there would be clear benefits to the South African government, economy and communities from Anglo Platinum and Kumba Iron Ore becoming major standalone entities listed on the JSE with significant increased JSE index weightings. Anglo Platinum and Kumba Iron Ore would be independently run by established South African-based management teams. As self-governed companies, Anglo Platinum and Kumba Iron Ore would be better placed to reinvest cash flow and capital directly into South Africa. As part of its increased presence in South Africa, BHP intends to continue and build on Anglo American's legacy of social investment and value creation in South Africa including by: if required to secure regulatory approvals, BHP sharing in the costs of increased South African employee ownership of the listed South African businesses; ?establishing a Mining Centre of Excellence to support R&D, training and promotion of South Africa as a premier mining destination; maintaining current employment levels at Anglo American's Johannesburg office to provide ongoing support to the South African assets to be acquired and other assets in the combined group, as well as to Anglo Platinum and Kumba as a third party service provider; ?maintaining funding for Anglo American's charitable commitments in South Africa at the current level; supporting local South African procurement and engagement across mining industry sectors and regions; ensuring continued access for South African investors through the listing of BHP on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange; and maintaining Anglo American's existing South African Reserve Bank (SARB) and National Treasury undertakings, to the maximum extent practicable. These proposed measures are expected to be maintained for a period of at least three years. BHP believes that its proposal will contribute to South Africa and allow the benefits of South African mining to be shared with more South African stakeholders. Next steps: BHP believes that the proposed measures it has put forward provide substantial risk protection for Anglo American shareholders and supplement the significant value uplift that Anglo American shareholders will receive from the potential combination. BHP believes a further extension of the Deadline is required to allow for further engagement on its proposal. This announcement does not amount to a firm intention to make an offer and there can be no certainty that an offer will be made. There is no certainty that any form of agreement or transaction will be reached or concluded. Nothing in this announcement constitutes or intended to constitute a post-offer undertaking for the purposes of Rule 19.5 of the UK Code. This announcement is being made by BHP without prior agreement or approval of Anglo American. Authorised for release by Stefanie Wilkinson, Group Company Secretary.
お知らせ • May 30+ 1 more updateBHP Group Confirms it Does Not Intend to Make a Firm Offer for Anglo AmericanBHP Group Limited (ASX:BHP) confirmed that it does not intend to make a firm offer for Anglo American plc (LSE:AAL) (Anglo American). This is a statement to which Rule 2.8 of the UK Code applies. As is customary, BHP reserves the right to set aside this statement in the following circumstances that are set out under Note 2 to Rule 2.8 of the UK Code: (a) The Board of Directors of Anglo American agreeing to this statement being set aside; (b) a third party announcing a firm intention to make an offer for Anglo American; (c) Anglo American announcing a Rule 9 waiver proposal (as described in Note 1 of the Notes on Dispensations from Rule 9 of the UK Code) or a reverse takeover (as defined in the UK Code); or (d) the UK Panel on Takeovers and Mergers determining that there has been a material change of circumstances. Mike Henry, BHP Chief Executive Officer said: ‘BHP will not be making a firm offer for Anglo American. BHP is committed to its Capital Allocation Framework and maintains a disciplined approach to mergers and acquisitions. While we believed that our proposal for Anglo American was a compelling opportunity to effectively grow the pie of value for both sets of shareholders, we were unable to reach agreement with Anglo American on our specific views in respect of South African regulatory risk and cost and, despite seeking to engage constructively and numerous requests, we were not able to access from Anglo American key information required to formulate measures to address the excess risk they perceive We remain of the view that our proposal was the most effective structure to deliver value for Anglo American shareholders, and we are confident that, working together with Anglo American, we could have obtained all required regulatory approvals, including in South Africa.’ On 20 May 2024, BHP submitted an increased and final offer ratio to the Board of Directors of Anglo American as part of its revised proposal for a potential combination with Anglo American to be effected by way of a scheme of arrangement. The final offer ratio represented a total value of £31.11 per BHP's announcement on 22 May 2024 (based on the closing share prices of BHP as at 22 May 2024 and Anglo Platinum and Kumba as at 21 May 2024). The revised proposal followed BHP's proposals for a potential combination with Anglo American which were submitted to the Board of Anglo American on 7 May 2024 and 16 April 2024. BHP's revised proposal was rejected by the Board of Anglo American on 22 May 2024. BHP is disappointed that the Board of Anglo American has decided not to continue discussions with BHP to resolve its concerns regarding the implementation of BHP's revised proposal. BHP had been engaging with Anglo American on these topics since the submission of its revised proposal on 20 May and believes that there was a viable pathway available to resolve Anglo American's concerns. In particular, Anglo American's assertion that value risk under our proposal would be exclusively for the account of Anglo American shareholders is not accurate. As stated in our announcement today and to Anglo American directly, BHP's intent was to share in the cost associated with certain conditions that may be imposed as part of South African regulatory approvals. BHP's revised proposal would have offered immediate value for Anglo American shareholders and would have allowed Anglo American shareholders to benefit from the long-term value created from combining Anglo American and BHP. This announcement is being made by BHP without Anglo American's prior agreement or approval.
お知らせ • May 25Anglo American Rejects Further BHP ProposalOn 20 May 2024, the Board of Anglo American plc (LSE:AAL) received a third unsolicited, non-binding and highly conditional takeover proposal from BHP Group Limited (ASX: BHP) (the "Latest Proposal"). Under the terms of the Latest Proposal, for each Anglo American share owned, Anglo American's shareholders would receive: 0.8860 BHP shares; and Ordinary shares in each of Anglo American Platinum Limited and of Kumba Iron Ore Limited (distributed by Anglo American to its shareholders in direct proportion to Anglo American's shareholders' effective interest in Anglo American Platinum Limited and Kumba Iron Ore Limited). The terms of the Latest Proposal represent a total value, based on undisturbed share prices as at market close on 23 April 2024, of approximately £29.34 per Anglo American share. On the basis of the 30-day and 90-day volume weighted average share prices up to and including 23 April 2024, the terms of the Latest Proposal would value Anglo American at £29.91 and £29.67 per Anglo American share, respectively. The Latest Proposal includes the same highly complex structure as the proposals previously rejected on 26 April 2024 and 13 May 2024. This involves an all-share offer for Anglo American by BHP, with a requirement for Anglo American to complete two separate demergers of its entire shareholdings in Anglo American Platinum Limited and Kumba Iron Ore Limited to Anglo American's shareholders. The all-share offer and required demergers would be inter-conditional. The Board and its advisers have engaged with BHP and its advisers on multiple occasions with a particular focus on the proposed structure and associated risks. The Board continues to believe that there are serious concerns with the structure given that it is likely to result in material completion risk and value impact that disproportionately falls on Anglo American's shareholders. The requirement to pursue two contemporaneous demergers of publicly listed companies alongside a takeover and the inter-conditional nature of the three transactions is unprecedented, and as a result of a takeover would result in additional material approvals and conditions, particularly in South Africa. BHP's Latest Proposal is therefore in clear contrast to Anglo American's simpler standalone plan to accelerate value delivery announced on 14 May 2024 and its proposal to demerge Anglo American Platinum Limited - a single demerger that Anglo American has a proven track record in delivering. The complex process proposed by BHP is likely to take 18 months or more to complete and carries significant execution and completion risks relating to both value and time. The key elements of Anglo American's standalone plan to accelerate value delivery are expected to be substantively complete by that stage. The approvals required in relation to BHP's Latest Proposal will also likely result in conditions being imposed that disproportionately impact Anglo American Platinum Limited and Kumba Iron Ore Limited and, therefore, Anglo American's shareholders. In addition, the Board has also considered detailed feedback from its extensive engagement with Anglo American's shareholders and stakeholders since the release of Anglo American's accelerated plans for delivery of its standalone strategy on 14 May 2024, continuing its engagement with its shareholders since the approach from BHP became public on 24 April 2024. The Board is confident in Anglo American's standalone future prospects and believes that Anglo American has set out a clear pathway to deliver the acceleration of its strategy detailed on 14 May 2024, that is expected to unlock significant and undiluted value for Anglo American's shareholders. Taking the above considerations into account, the Board of Anglo American has unanimously rejected the Latest Proposal. In order to allow for further engagement with BHP on the mitigation of risks and value impact on Anglo American's shareholders that are inherent in its Latest Proposal, Anglo American announces that, in accordance with Rule 2.6(c) of the Code, the Board has requested, and the Panel on Takeovers and Mergers (the "Panel") has consented to, an extension to the date by which BHP is required either to announce a firm intention to make an offer for Anglo American in accordance with Rule 2.7 of the Code or to announce that it does not intend to make an offer, in which case the announcement will be treated as a statement to which Rule 2.8 of the Code applies. Such announcement must now be made by not later than 5.00 p.m. on 29 May 2024. This deadline will only be extended with the consent of the Panel in accordance with Rule 2.6(c) of the Code. Stuart Chambers, Chairman of Anglo American, commented: "The Board is confident in Anglo American's standalone future prospects and believes that Anglo American has set out a clear pathway and timeframe to deliver the acceleration of its strategy to unlock significant and undiluted value for Anglo American's shareholders. The Board considered BHP's Latest Proposal carefully, concluded it does not meet expectations of value delivered to Anglo American's shareholders, and has unanimously rejected it. In particular, it does not address the Board's concerns about the structure, which results in significant complexity, execution risks, an extended timeline to completion and consequently has the potential for material value leakage to be disproportionately suffered by Anglo American's shareholders. Multiple engagements with the BHP team have not yet been able to resolve the concerns on these issues. "However, the Board is willing to continue to engage with BHP and its advisers on this topic and has therefore requested a one week extension to the PUSU deadline which has been consented to by the Panel." There can be no certainty that any firm offer will be made and, save as set out in BHP's announcement dated 13 May 2024 (and subject to the reservations set out therein), there can be no certainty as to the terms on which an offer may be made.
お知らせ • May 16BHP Chief Urges Anglo Investors to Consider Takeover BenefitsBHP Group Limited (ASX:BHP) Chief Executive Mike Henry said that Anglo American plc (LSE:AAL) investors need to consider the merits of his company's bid for its smaller London-listed rival, seeking to drum up support for a proposal that has been rejected twice. The CEO of the world's biggest listed mining group told investors at a metals and mining conference in Miami that Anglo shareholders must make a "determination" on the benefits of a combination of the two companies and which team they think has a better track record of executing projects and delivering returns to investors. Anglo CEO Duncan Wanblad on May 14, 2024 outlined plans to refocus on energy transition metal copper while spinning off or selling its less profitable coal, nickel, diamond and platinum businesses. Henry, meanwhile, emphasised the merits of BHP's $43 billion bid and dismissed concerns that the proposed deal would be complex to execute. "At the end of the day, it's going to be up to shareholders. They have to look at the plans, decide which one they believe is going to create the greatest value soonest," he said. "And they have to make a determination as to the likelihood of execution of those plans, including which team they believe is more capable and has a better track record of execution. It's that simple." The Anglo board argues that the proposed deal undervalues the company and is difficult to execute, with BHP planning to demerge two of Anglo's South African assets prior to a takeover. BHP chief Henry, however, says the company has sufficient experience to execute complex transactions, having divested South32 (S32.AX), opens new tab assets in South Africa. Henry said he was disappointed with the Anglo board's continued refusal to engage, adding that BHP would have preferred to continue talking in private. "Our strong preference was to be able to hold these discussions with Anglo in private," Henry said. "Rather unfortunately, it got leaked." While BHP is intent on growing its copper business, it would maintain its disciplined approach to capital allocation, Henry said, adding that the copper industry remains fragmented. "We do not take capital discipline lightly, we will remain disciplined and we have demonstrated that in previous instances," he said.
お知らせ • Apr 26+ 1 more updateBHP Group Launches Bid to Acquire Anglo AmericanBritish mining heavyweight Anglo American plc (LSE:AAL) confirmed it was "reviewing" a takeover bid from its larger Australian rival BHP Group Limited (ASX: BHP), in what would rank as one of the sector's biggest deals in years. Anglo American did not disclose the price of the "unsolicited" offer, which must be sewn up before a deadline of May 22. BHP's offer would first hinge on Anglo American splitting off its platinum and iron ore operations in South Africa. Anglo's platinum operations are listed on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange under Anglo American Platinum Ltd, as are its iron ore operations under Kumba Iron Ore Ltd. Australian-based BHP has a market value of around USD 148 billion, while London-based Anglo American has a market value of about USD 36 billion. "The board is currently reviewing this proposal with its advisers," Anglo American said in a statement. "There can be no certainty that any offer will be made nor as to the terms on which any such offer might be made. "Pending any further announcements Anglo American shareholders should take no action." BHP declined to comment.

お知らせ • Sep 21Whitehaven Reportedly Leads the Way in Auction for BHP Coal MinesBHP Group Limited (ASX:BHP) is asking the short-listed bidders for its two Queensland coal mines on offer to resubmit offers on September 25 after final bids landed last month. DataRoom revealed earlier that suitors had until the end of the month to lock in funding for a transaction and that Whitehaven was firming as the favourite to win the contest. Left in the contest are Whitehaven Coal Limited (ASX:WHC), bidding for both assets, Peabody Energy Corporation (NYSE:BTU) bidding for the Daunia mine, BUMA bidding for the Blackwater mine and Stanmore Resources Limited (ASX:SMR) bidding for Daunia. Sources say Stanmore Coal, which is sourcing debt to fund its bid with help from Grant Samuel, is believed to be the most conservative of the bidders when it comes to price. UBS has put a USD 2.5 billion value on Blackwater, which analysts say has a 50-year mine life, and a USD 800 million value on Daunia, which they believe has a 17-year mine life, with USD 1 billion of rehab liabilities on the former and USD 250 million on the latter. Some Whitehaven shareholders are warming to the prospect of the coal miner buying both Daunia and Blackwater in a deal that may top USD 3 billion. DataRoom first revealed Whitehaven was bidding for both mines on August 24, and the company confirmed this on Monday. It also reiterated comments made while reporting its results last month that it had suspended its share buyback as it considered growth opportunities.
お知らせ • Aug 12Coronado Reportedly Exits BHP Coal RaceCoronado Global Resources Inc. (ASX:CRN) is understood to have pulled out of the contest to buy BHP Group Limited (ASX:BHP)'s Queensland coal mines. Sources say that the country's largest miner, BHP, received high-priced bids for its two coal mines Daunia and Blackwater when they landed on 09 August 2023. A source said one of the competitors among the six shortlisted parties had dropped out of the competition, and insiders were pointing to Coronado on 10 August 2023. It comes after DataRoom reported that there had been talk Coronado was slowing in its pursuit of the coal mines in the final stage of the race. Other parties contending for the assets are Whitehaven Coal, advised by UBS and Bank of America; Peabody Energy, advised by Goldman Sachs; Yancoal, advised by RBC; Stanmore Coal; and BUMA. Earlier, the expectation was that the mines were set to sell for a combined $3 billion-$5 billion ($4.5 billion -$7.5 billion). The Macquarie Capital-advised BHP is considering a sale of the assets separately. Whitehaven's focus is Daunia, sources say, while Coronado's focus was believed to be Blackwater, with its own Curragh open-cut coal mine 30km to the north in central Queensland. But this week Coronado, which has mines in Australia and the US, delivered a disappointing earnings result.
お知らせ • Jul 25Suitors Reportedly Prepare to Lob Bids for ChaliceSuitors lining up for $2.3 billion nickel explorer and developer Chalice Mining Limited (ASX:CHN) are preparing to lob their final offers by August 21, sources say. The company's main project is its Julimar nickel and copper project in Western Australia's Avon region, 70km northeast of Perth. The group's Gonneville deposit is one of the world's nickel sulphide discoveries. It reported a net loss of $33.7 million for the six months to December and is looking for a backer to fund its development through Standard Chartered. But some believe the process could result in an acquisition of the company as a whole. Sources say Chalice is open to several options including a partial sale of about 20% of the group, or 100%. The king maker is Founding Chairman Tim Goyder, who owns just over 8% of the business. He has proved a tough negotiator on price, based on the experience of Albemarle, which has been courting Liontown. Mr. Goyder, who stepped down as the Chairman of Chalice Mining in 2021, also owns 15% of Liontown. Albemarle, the world's lithium producer, offered $5.5 billion for that company, currently worth $6 billion, but that was rejected. Anglo American plc (LSE:AAL), South32 Limited (ASX:S32), BHP Group Limited (ASX:BHP) and Rio Tinto Limited are expected to be lining up for Chalice's platinum metals assets. Some experts say the big players will be obliged to look at the asset, simply given the size of the resource, but the project is not yet in production and will take a long time from an environment point of view. The world's platinum producer, Sibanye Stillwater Limited (JSE:SSW), could also be in the mix.
お知らせ • Jul 22Daunia Mine Reportedly Bid Possible Without Whitehaven Equity RaisingWhitehaven Coal Limited (ASX:WHC) investors nervous about the miner embarking on an equity raising to buy BHP Group Limited (ASX:BHP)'s coalmining portfolio may be worrying unnecessarily. BHP is understood to be open to selling the two mines it has on offer separately. The understanding is that Whitehaven's interest is in the Daunia mine, which is close to its Winchester South mine. Whitehaven would probably be able to buy the asset without going cap in hand to investors in an equity raising. On a call to investors this week about its June quarter report, Whitehaven boss Paul Flynn said the company was able to source bank debt for metallurgical coal assets, but thermal coal was a challenge as its $1 billion revolving finance facility had not been renewed. Blackwater - the other asset for sale by BHP - produces thermal coal as well as metallurgical coal, while Daunia produces metallurgical coal. They are two of nine metallurgical coal mines in Queensland's Bowen Basin that are part of the joint venture, split 50-50 between BHP and Mitsubishi Development. Earlier in the contest, some were betting that Coronado would buy Blackwater, given its operations, including workforce, roads and ports are close by, while Peabody Energy was seen as the most likely acquirer of Daunia. Yet that was early on, before Yancoal turned up, looking like it would easily overcome other suitors, and some believe Coronado's interest is cooling. But if the assets can be sold separately, they may be within in the grasp of groups such as Coronado and Peabody, which would enjoy synergies. Macquarie Capital is working on the sale, while UBS is believed to be advising Whitehaven Coal and RBC Yancoal. Six parties are understood to have been shortlisted to buy the assets: Yancoal, Coronado, Stanmore Coal, BUMA, Peabody Energy and Whitehaven Coal.
