The world's largest miner reported a better than expected half-year profit of $6.2 billion on Tuesday. Record iron ore output and copper prices drove growth.

Insights:
BHP Group Limited reported a better-than-expected half-year underlying attributable profit of $6.20 billion for the six months ended December 2025. The result, announced on 16 February 2026, was driven by record first-half iron ore production and materially higher realised prices for iron ore and copper. This financial performance exceeded the Visible Alpha consensus for the reporting period.
