Fortescue reported strong 3Q25 cash generation, with Pilbara hematite operations benefiting from lower C1 costs at US$17.52/wmt and forex tailwinds, beating expectations with a US$3.3bn cash position, according to Jarden.

Iron ore volume guidance for FY25 remains unchanged at 190–200Mt, though year-to-date production of 143Mt suggests a result near the lower end. The broker trims FY25 production forecast slightly to 195.9Mt and improves cost assumptions.

Iron Bridge ramp-up was again disappointing, the broker comments, with processed volumes down -24% on the previous quarter and nameplate capacity now pushed out to FY28.

Despite shipping improvements, realisation remains below benchmark. Management raised capex guidance marginally to -US$3.5–US$3.8bn. Working capital benefits helped offset lower capex, keeping net debt stable at US$2.1bn.

Jarden lifts FY25 forecast EPS by 1.3% on lower costs, while FY26 EPS is cut by –3% on weaker Iron Bridge output. Target price slips to $16.49 from $16.91. Neutral rating retained.

(Re-published to correct forecasts in USD).

FORECAST
Jarden forecasts a full year FY25 EPS of 180.72 cents.
Jarden forecasts a full year FY26 EPS of 131.07 cents.
