RIO
Guidance Update
New Projects/Investments
Management Change
- Rio Tinto is focusing its portfolio on four core commodities: iron ore, aluminum, lithium, and copper, and aims to achieve a 3% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) through to 2030, equating to 20% production growth by that year.
- The company has initiated actions to deliver $650 million in productivity benefits and savings on an annual run rate basis, with a target to reduce unit costs by 4% annually, leading to a 20% reduction by 2030.
- Rio Tinto plans to release $5 billion to $10 billion in cash proceeds from its asset base and expects capital expenditure to decline to less than $10 billion annually from 2028 after peak years in 2025-2027.
- Major growth projects like Simandou, OT, and Rincon are progressing, with Simandou achieving first ore and expected to contribute 5 to 10 million tons in sales next year, followed by a 30-month ramp-up to full production.
- The lithium growth target for 2028 has been adjusted to 200,000 tons per annum, down from 225,000 tons, due to the placement of Jadar into care and maintenance and a focus on one spodumene mine in Canada.
