Nexa Resources SA ( (NEXA) ) has provided an announcement.
On February 26, 2026, Nexa Resources S.A. filed its Form 6-K with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, furnishing consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025. The filing, signed by Senior Vice President of Finance and CFO José Carlos del Valle, details a sharp turnaround to a 2025 net profit of $223.1 million after losses in 2024 and 2023, driven by higher net revenues of $3.0 billion, improved gross profit, and a $91.7 million impairment reversal on long-lived assets, although financial expenses remained substantial.
The improved 2025 performance translated into basic and diluted earnings of $1.00 per share attributable to shareholders, compared with losses of $1.55 and $2.20 per share in the prior two years. For stakeholders, the stronger operating income, positive contribution from associates, and higher total comprehensive income of $298.6 million, alongside a still-solid cash position despite a decline from 2024, signal a recovery in Nexa’s financial health that may bolster its standing in the cyclical base-metals industry.
The most recent analyst rating on (NEXA) stock is a Hold with a $7.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Nexa Resources SA stock, see the NEXA Stock Forecast page.
Spark’s Take on NEXA Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, NEXA is a Neutral.
Overall score reflects mixed financial performance (weak net profitability and high leverage, partly offset by improving cash flow), a technically strong but overbought setup (high RSI/Stoch), and weak earnings-based valuation (negative P/E). The latest earnings call was a positive offset, citing improving production, profitability, free cash flow, and modest deleveraging, though operational stability and cost pressures remain key risks.
