Vale’s profit slumps well below forecasts
 
Brazil’s Vale, one of the world’s largest miners, reported a first quarter net profit down 59% from a year earlier, far below analyst expectations, as profits were dragged down by weaker sales and lower iron ore prices.
The company posted a net profit of $1.8 billion for the first three months of 2023, in a filing to Brazil’s main stock exchange on Wednesday, while analysts polled by Refinitiv had forecast a profit of $2.4 billion.
Over the quarter, Vale said that prices for its iron ore had averaged $108.6 per tonne, down from the $141.4 per tonne it reported for the same period last year.
