Ord Minnett observes the updated Samarco compensation charges place the offer value at R170bn which equates to US$32bn or $48bn. This is an increase from R140bn in June and R127bn in April.

BHP Group stated the "settlement proposal is broadly aligned with the existing US$6.5bn provision", although the broker highlights the February update on the group's balance sheet was around -US$8bn less than the recent US$32bn amount.

No changes have been made to earnings forecast with the analyst acknowledging the payment amount is complicated by timelines of payments and the like.

Accumulate rating and $45 target unchanged.

BHP Group's FY24 results revealed slight beats against consensus forecasts for underlying earnings (EBITDA) and profit. Higher group earnings were driven by an increase in copper equivalent production and higher commodity prices, explains Goldman Sachs.

Copper division earnings of US$8.6bn compared to the broker's US$7.7bn estimate due to a strong cost beat at South Australia copper and a revenue beat at Escondida in Chile.

FY25 production guidance is unchanged with unit cost guidance broadly in line with Goldman's forecast, implying an around 2% increase in unit costs. 

Medium-term capex guidance remains at US$11bn but will be reached by FY26 due to a higher spend on copper and items such as truck fleet replacement, explains the broker.

The US74c final dividend beat the broker's US70c forecast.

The target rises to $49.10 from $48.40. Buy.

FORECAST
Goldman Sachs forecasts a full year FY25 dividend of 175.04 cents and EPS of 351.59 cents.
Goldman Sachs forecasts a full year FY26 dividend of 170.51 cents and EPS of 341.03 cents.
