Ivanhoe Mines lifts 2025 profit as African copper and zinc assets hit cost targets

Tipranks - Thu Feb 19, 5:24PM CST

President's Day Sale - 70% Off

An announcement from Ivanhoe Mines ( (TSE:IVN) ) is now available.

Ivanhoe Mines reported a 2025 profit after tax of $228 million and adjusted EBITDA of $578 million, as its flagship Kamoa-Kakula operation generated $3.28 billion in revenue and $1.45 billion in EBITDA at a 44% margin despite lower copper production and sales since May. The company met 2025 cost guidance at both Kamoa-Kakula and Kipushi, set lower cash cost targets for 2026–2027, accelerated ramp-up of Africa’s largest copper smelter with first anode shipments via the Lobito corridor imminent, advanced Platreef’s Phase 2 expansion to quadruple output from late 2027, and prepared an updated resource for the Makoko District, underscoring its positioning to benefit from tightening global markets and high prices for copper, zinc and other critical metals.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:IVN) stock is a Hold with a C$19.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Ivanhoe Mines stock, see the TSE:IVN Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on TSE:IVN Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, TSE:IVN is a Neutral.

The score is held back primarily by weak cash-flow generation and mixed operating profitability despite strong revenue growth and a manageable balance sheet. Technicals are supportive with a clear uptrend, but near-term momentum looks stretched. Valuation is a notable risk due to the high P/E, while the latest earnings call was cautiously constructive on liquidity and project milestones despite ongoing operational and cost headwinds.
