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.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
