The latest update is out from Rana Gruber AS ( (DE:7XH) ).

Rana Gruber has published preliminary key figures for the fourth quarter and full year 2025 to ensure equal access to financial information ahead of Champion Iron’s voluntary cash tender offer for all outstanding shares. The company reports stable full-year production at 1.81 million tonnes, broadly in line with capacity and 2024 levels, and highlights the completion of its Fe65 project and growing magnetite output as strategic milestones that enhance ore quality, pricing potential and product mix flexibility. However, fourth-quarter performance was weighed down by production disruptions tied to ongoing quality improvements, resulting in lower quarterly volumes, a 5.9% decline in full-year revenues to NOK 1,565 million, slightly higher cash costs and elevated operating expenses, including non-recurring transaction costs related to the takeover offer, underscoring both the operational transition under way and the financial backdrop for prospective shareholders.
