Neutral

$5.45

-17.42%

UBS notes production suspension announcement at Iluka Resources' two operations is a sign of continued weakness in the mineral sands and pigments markets, and is labeled a financially prudent decision.

The SR2 kiln will be suspended for six months and the Cataby mine for 12 months, both starting December 1.

The broker highlights producer Venator going into administration may be an added reason, as it was a significant volume contributor to the take-or-pay arrangements for the SR2 mine.

While the broker is cautious on mineral sands, it is increasingly positive on the ex-China rare earths sector and Eneabba's role in it.

FY26 EPS forecast cut by -20% and FY26 by -17%, but the savings on cost and capex have alleviated balance sheet concerns.

Neutral. Target unchanged at $5.45.

FORECAST
UBS forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 7.00 cents and EPS of 32.00 cents.
UBS forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 4.00 cents and EPS of 32.00 cents.

-6.82%

Iluka Resources will suspend production at the Cataby mine and Synthetic Rutile Kiln 2 (SR2) from December 1 due to weak pigment feedstock markets.

Cataby is expected to remain offline for 12 months and SR2 for six months, notes Canaccord Genuity, with existing sales obligations met from inventories.

The broker reduces its 2025 zircon/rutile/synthetic rutile production forecast by -6% to 468kt and 2026 by -32% to 423kt, both below consensus.

Sales volumes are expected to decline through the December quarter 2025 and 2026, while no restart timing has been provided. The broker highlights Balranald commissioning late in 2025 remains unaffected.

The analysts warn prolonged market weakness could extend suspensions and lead to further sales downgrades beyond 2027.

Canaccord  lowers its target price to $6.15 from $6.85 and retains a Buy rating.

FORECAST
Canaccord Genuity forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 6.00 cents and EPS of 17.00 cents.
Canaccord Genuity forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 8.00 cents and EPS of 31.00 cents.
