VALE Q1 Revenue Slides, Profit Dips On Lower Iron Ore Prices

As global markets spiral from fresh tariff hikes, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/emerging-markets">some emerging markets</a> defy the chaos—surviving and thriving.
In exclusive insights shared with Benzinga via email, Violeta Todorova, Senior Research Analyst at Leverage Shares, spotlighted several resilient economies she perceives as "best positioned to weather the tariff war volatility." 
She says emerging markets are making the biggest impression, citing India, the UAE, parts of Latin America, and Australia.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why India Is Insulated From Trade Disruptions</h2>
"India is seen as relatively insulated from global trade disruptions due to its strong focus on domestic consumption," Todorova said. With growth driven more by locals than exports, the market is shaping up to be a defensive powerhouse. Indian banks, in particular, shine due to "attractive valuations, room for loan growth, and lower exposure to international trade."
For U.S. investors, the iShares MSCI India ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/INDA#NYSE">INDA</a>) and the WisdomTree India Earnings Fund (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EPI#NYSE">EPI</a>) offer direct exposure.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">UAE Is More Open To Trade, LatAm Offers Protection</h2>
The UAE, she added, "is becoming more open to trade and immigration," aided by policies like the golden visa. Economic optimism is fueling home buying and consumer demand &#8211; momentum captured by ETFs like the iShares MSCI UAE ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAE#NYSE">UAE</a>).
In Latin America, Brazil and Argentina "offer some protection from the negative impacts of global tariff hikes." U.S. investors looking for access may consider the iShares Latin America 40 ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ILF#NYSE">ILF</a>) or the iShares MSCI Brazil ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWZ#NYSE">EWZ</a>).
Even Australia, typically overshadowed in the emerging narrative, is largely spared. "The direct impact of the new tariff regime on Australia&#8217;s economy will be small," Todorova said. Meanwhile, "Australian gold mining companies…are positioned to perform very well in 2025," with U.S.-traded names like Perseus Mining (OTCPK:PMNXF) and Evolution Mining (OTCPK:CAHPF) catching momentum.
Exposure through iShares MSCI Australia ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWA#NYSE">EWA</a>) gives investors a backdoor into this stability play. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Expert Tips For A Global Tariff-Resistant Portfolio</h2>
Sector-wise, Todorova sees promise within borders too. Defensive players in health care, utilities, and staples "tend to be less sensitive to changes in trade policy," while services sectors &#8211; "software, cybersecurity, defense tech, and large-cap financials" &#8211; stand out for their domestic lean and AI-driven strength.
And as always, there's gold. "Gold is poised to remain a key asset in 2025," she noted, thanks to ongoing instability and demand from central banks. For U.S. investors, the SPDR Gold Shares (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>) remains a cornerstone option.

EXCLUSIVE: These Emerging Markets Are The Calm In The Tariff Storm

VALE S.A. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VALE#NYSE">VALE</a>) reported the first-quarter FY25 <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mining" rel="noreferrer noopener">production and sales performance</a> on Tuesday.
The company clocked iron ore production of 67.7 million tonnes (Mt), which was down 4.5% year over year (Y/Y), with production in the Northern System constrained by heavy rainfall.
Pellet production declined 15% Y/Y to 7.2 Mt primarily due to reduced availability of pellet feed in the quarter.

In the first quarter, Vale's iron ore sales increased 3.6% Y/Y to 66.1 million tonnes, aided by the sale of advanced inventories built-up in previous quarters.
The average realized price for iron ore fines was $90.8 per tonne (-9.8% Y/Y), primarily due to lower premium levels.
Similarly, the average pellet price declined 18.1% year over year to $140.8 per tonne, reflecting weaker contractual premiums during the quarter.
Meanwhile, Iron ore sales increased 4% year over year to 66.1 Mt, driven by an agile supply chain and strategic use of inventories.
Also, Copper production rose 11% Y/Y to 90.9 kt, with a strong performance from Salobo, Sossego, and Voisey's Bay thanks to the Salobo 3 and Voisey's Bay underground expansions.
Additionally, Nickel production surged 11% year over year to 43.9 kt, led by increased production at Onça Puma and solid results from Canadian operations, further enhanced by VBME's progress.
In February, Vale reported fourth-quarter net operating revenue decline of 22% Y/Y to $10.124 billion, beating&nbsp;the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43858670/vale-q4-lower-iron-ore-prices-weigh-on-earnings-approves-198-billion-in-dividends-interest-on-capital-renewed-buyback-program" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus of $10.117 billion</a>.

Vale Q1 Iron Ore Output Falls 4.5% Amid Heavy Rains, Copper And Nickel Output Gain

VALE S.A.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VALE#NYSE">VALE</a>) shares are surging on Thursday. On Wednesday, the company reported net operating revenues decline of 22% year over year to $10.124 billion, beating&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://api.mziq.com/mzfilemanager/v2/d/53207d1c-63b4-48f1-96b7-19869fae19fe/ef08c06a-f29a-9272-3ba5-283e7e3c6617?origin=1" rel="noreferrer noopener">the</a> consensus of $10.117 billion.
Iron ore shipments declined by 9.1 Mt Y/Y due to portfolio optimization focusing on higher-margin products. The average realized iron ore fines price declined 21% Y/Y to $93/t due to lower benchmark prices.
Copper and nickel all-in costs stood at $1,098/t and $13,881/t, respectively—the lowest since fourth-quarter 2020 for copper and since first-quarter of 2022 for nickel.&nbsp;
Proforma EBITDA declined 40% Y/Y to $4.1 billion in the quarter due to a decline in iron ore prices and sales volumes. Adjusted EPS of 20 cents missed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">the consensus of 43 cents</a>.
Capital expenditure fell 17% Y/Y to $1.77 billion in the quarter. As of December 31, cash and cash equivalent stood at $4.95 billion.
The company approved $1.984 billion in dividends and interest on capital, set for payment in March 2025, representing an annualized dividend yield of 10.4%.  Additionally, Vale renewed the share buyback program for 18 months, allowing for the repurchase of up to 120 million shares.
Gustavo Pimenta, CEO, said,&nbsp;"We are pleased to report a strong operational and financial performance in 2024, underscored by the highest iron ore production since 2018 and record copper production at Salobo. Our disciplined approach to cost and operational&nbsp;effeciency&nbsp;has driven significant improvements, with our C1 at&nbsp;US$ 18.8/t&nbsp;in Q4, the lowest level since 2022.&#8221;
&#8221;Regarding safety and dam management, we have made meaningful progress by eliminating four additional dams in 2024 and completing 57% of our dam&nbsp;decharacterization&nbsp;program. This year, we expect to remove the last dam at emergency level 3. We begin 2025 highly optimistic about our ability to meet our annual targets and advance our strategic priorities."
Outlook: Vale sees iron ore production of 325-335 Mt for FY25 and 340-360 Mt&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://api.mziq.com/mzfilemanager/v2/d/53207d1c-63b4-48f1-96b7-19869fae19fe/37cb9949-5288-05dd-c822-c29e1b9fe0f4?origin=1" rel="noreferrer noopener">in</a> FY26, driven by project ramp-ups and the start-up of the Serra Sul +20 project.
For 2025, all-in costs&nbsp;are projected&nbsp;to be $53-$57/t, with a further decline to $50-$54/t in 2026. This reduction is owing to lower C1 cash costs, supported by efficiency improvements, increased production, and a shift&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">toward higher-quality products</a>.
Investors can gain exposure to the stock via&nbsp;VanEck Steel ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SLX#NYSE">SLX</a>) and&nbsp;IShares Latin America 40 ETF&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ILF#NYSE">ILF</a>).

VALE Q4: Lower Iron Ore Prices Weigh on Earnings, Stock Buyback Renewal And More

Petrobras (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PBR#NYSE">PBR</a>) shares are trading higher premarket on Friday. The Brazilian oil and gas giant disclosed the <a target="_blank" href="https://api.mziq.com/mzfilemanager/v2/d/25fdf098-34f5-4608-b7fa-17d60b2de47d/92a7dad6-56cd-b1b1-7b48-35369e474c39?origin=2" rel="noreferrer noopener">Business </a>Plan 2025-2029.
During this period, Petrobras plans to focus on replenishing reserves, boosting production with a reduced carbon footprint, and expanding its portfolio with more sustainable, high-quality products in the oil &amp; gas market.
Petrobras plans to invest $111 billion over five years, including $98 billion for projects already in progress and $13 billion for less mature projects still requiring further financial review. This investment is 9% higher than the previous plan for 2024-2028.
For Exploration and Production (E&amp;P), Petrobras plans to invest $77.3 billion over the next five years, a 5% increase from its previous plan.
Approximately 60% of the Exploration and Production (E&amp;P) segment&#8217;s budget will focus on pre-salt assets, emphasizing high-quality oil production with lower costs and greenhouse gas emissions.
Concurrently, the company is advancing revitalization projects in mature fields, particularly in the Campos Basin, to enhance recovery rates.
Petrobras aims to achieve total production of 3.2 million barrels of oil and gas equivalent per day (boed), including 2.5 million barrels of oil per day (bpd).
Also, the company has increased exploration investments to $7.9 billion in E&amp;P over the next five years, a 5% increase from the previous plan.
Overall, Petrobras revised its gross debt limit to $75 billion. This adjustment considers robust leverage metrics, even with low Brent prices, while accommodating the growing impact of leases on gross debt.
The company anticipates strong free cash flow with projected ordinary dividends of $45 billion-$55 billion and<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener"> flexibility for extraordinary payouts</a>.

The quarter also saw record pre-salt oil processing, accounting for 73% of the total load, and gasoline production reaching 6.38 million m3.
Asphalt production was notable as well, with 803,000 tons produced in the quarter, including records at the Reduc (32,000 tons) and Repar (51,000 tons) refineries.
These achievements are attributed to modernization projects, asset reliability, process optimization, and the use of innovative technologies.
Last week, Petrobras confirmed that its Sirius-1 and Sirius-2 gas <a target="_blank" href="https://api.mziq.com/mzfilemanager/v2/d/25fdf098-34f5-4608-b7fa-17d60b2de47d/652dc1c3-b78c-107b-6cac-9616e7f0d67d?origin=1" rel="noreferrer noopener">discoveries </a>in Colombia&#8217;s Guajira Offshore Basin hold around 6 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) of gas in place.

<li>Venture capitalist Hernan Kazah explores options to invest the $1 billion raised by his firm Kaszek Ventures to tap the pandemic induced demand surge for the tech companies,&nbsp;<a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-06-18/unicorn-rainmaker-has-1-billion-for-latam-s-thriving-startups?sref=TBDibEcD" style="color:#4a6ee0; background:transparent; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt" target="_blank">Bloomberg reports</a>.</li>
<li>The firm opted for Latin America&rsquo;s most prominent venture capital round after identifying multiple investment opportunities following the pandemic.</li>
<li>Initially, the companies had to adjust. But the firm noted growing demand after one and a half months leading to multiple investment ideas.</li>
<li>Last year, investors invested over $4 billion into the hardest pandemic hit Latin American startups for a second consecutive year. The Q1 investments are estimated to cross $2 billion.</li>
<li>Kaszek aims to invest $475 million in early-stage startups. It plans to incur the remaining $525 million for a fund catering to its portfolio. The funds were several times oversubscribed, with global demand including strong interest from Asian institutions and Latin American investors.</li>
<li>The investors included Wesleyan University and Sequoia Heritage.</li>
<li>The firm&rsquo;s track record of picking winners, with at least nine unicorns in its portfolio, could partially explain the rising demand.
