Rössing Uranium records decline in profits Due to water challenges, Rössing Uranium recorded a revenue decline of 9%, bringing the total revenue for the year ended 31 December 2024 to N$5.925 million. This also led to a profit after tax of N$1.028 million from N$1.340 million in 2023. “Revenue for the year declined by 9% compared to 2023. This was mainly due to 20% lower sales volumes resulting from a one-month major maintenance shutdown, followed by a delayed start-up, water-related challenges, and technical difficulties at the processing plant,” reads the company’s sustainability report. However, the company still paid its shareholders higher dividends than it did in 2023. According to the report, the board declared and paid 68 cents per share as an interim dividend for 2024 amounting to N$112 608 000, compared to N$99 360 000 in 2023. “Subsequent to the year end, the board recommended and the shareholders approved, a final dividend for 2024 of 68 cents per share, amounting to N$112 608 000 (2023: N$105 984 000),” read the report. Of the N$5.2 billion spent on goods and services in 2024, N$4.3 billion was procured from Namibian registered suppliers. Meanwhile, 10% of goods and services were imported from South African suppliers and 6% imported from other international suppliers. Rössing Uranium produced 2 600 metric tonnes of uranium oxide for the year, a decline when compared to 2 920 metric tonnes in 2023. A total of 30 million metric tonnes of material were mined from the open pit, while eight million metric tonnes of ore were milled. Rössing Uranium managing drector Johan Coetzee says the construction of an 18 MWp/15 MW AC photovoltaic solar power plant is still ongoing. The solar plant is set to supply power to the Rössing processing plant via a 6 800-metre overhead transmission line. “This development marks a key milestone in the company’s commitment to green energy production and long-term sustainability goals,” says Coetzee. Additionally the mine completed the implementation of phase four pushbacks that focused on extending its life of mine. Rössing Uranium is Namibia’s first commercial uranium mine and commenced operations in 1976, becoming one of the world’s longest-running open-pit uranium mines. Originally developed by Rio Tinto, Rössing Uranium became majority-owned by China National Uranium Corporation Limited in 2019.

Mexican cement maker Cemex’s core profits slip on weaker local market MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Mexican cement maker Cemex reported an 18% dip in its core earnings for the first quarter on Monday, driven largely by headwinds in the local market. Cemex reported earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization of $601 million, in line with estimates, due to a weaker peso currency and a dip in volumes at home, it said in a filing. The peso caused a $65 million hit to EBITDA, Cemex said, while volumes dropped in Mexico due to a rush last year to finish government infrastructure projects before presidential elections. The firm expects its full-year EBITDA to come in upward of $3 billion, and held that forecast on Monday. The U.S. was Cemex’s largest market by sales in the first quarter - followed by Europe, the Middle East and Africa - and then Mexico. Total sales slipped 7% to $3.65 billion, also in line with the LSEG-compiled estimate, as higher prices failed to fully offset lower volumes. Cement and ready-mix volumes ticked up slightly, though aggregates came down 4%, Cemex said. The results come after Cemex’s long-time CEO Fernando Gonzalez retired at the beginning of this month, with Cemex USA head Jaime Muguiro replacing him. The firm has shifted its focus in recent years toward the U.S., selling off non-core businesses including in Guatemala, the Philippines and the Dominican Republic. In February, Bloomberg News reported that Cemex was gauging interest for a potential sale of its Colombia unit. In the quarter, Cemex’s net profit nearly tripled to $734 million, boosted by the Dominican Republic sale. According to Cemex, $618 million of its net profit in the quarter came from discontinued operations.

Komatsu forecasts 27% profit decline this year amid tariff uncertainty TOKYO (Reuters) -Top Japanese construction machinery maker Komatsu (OTC:KMTUY) on Monday forecast a 27% decline in operating profit this financial year citing a stronger yen and higher costs stemming from new U.S. tariffs. The company expects operating profit of 478 billion yen ($3.33 billion) for the business year to March 2026, after recording a profit of 657.1 billion yen in the just-ended business year, which marked an 8.2% growth. The 2024/25 result also beat analysts’ mean estimate of 605.7 billion yen, according to data compiled by LSEG. Revenues came to 4.1 trillion yen and net income 439.6 billion yen. Komatsu, the world’s second-largest heavy equipment maker after U.S. rival Caterpillar (NYSE:CAT), earns more than a quarter of its sales from North America, making it vulnerable to repercussions of President Donald Trump’s trade policy. ($1 = 143.4200 yen)
