Iluka Resources Limited is a leading Australian company specializing in the exploration, mining, processing, and marketing of mineral sands and rare earths, with a significant stake in Deterra Royalties Limited. In its latest interim earnings report for the half-year ending June 30, 2025, Iluka Resources reported a decrease in revenue and profit, with revenue from ordinary activities down by 8% to $577.8 million and net profit after tax declining by 31% to $92 million. The company declared an interim dividend of 2 cents per share, reflecting a reduction from the previous year’s interim dividend. Key financial metrics revealed a challenging period for Iluka, with a significant free cash outflow of $361 million, leading to an increase in net debt to $502 million. Despite these challenges, the company maintained a robust EBITDA margin of 39%, supported by cost control measures and increased zircon sales volumes.
