Fortress Minerals reports lower net profit after tax for H1
This is despite a higher revenue for the period.
Fortress Minerals has reported a lower net profit after tax of $8.8m (US$6.8m) for the first half of the financial year 2026, down 35.29% year on year.
However, the group’s revenue for the period was 28.2% YoY higher at $42m (US$32.4m), driven by higher sales volume, which increased to 190,066 dry metric tonnes (DMT).
This increase was offset by the lower average realised selling price, which was 2.4% lower YoY at $111.83 (US$86.32) per DMT for the second quarter of the financial year.
It was due to the weaker average benchmark IODEX CFR North China of Platts Daily Iron Ore Assessments price indices.
