Vale SA Corporate Events
Vale S.A., the Brazilian mining group, filed its Form 6-K as a foreign private issuer for the month of February 2026 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The filing, signed on February 13, 2026 by Director of Investor Relations Thiago Lofiego, is an administrative submission that does not disclose new operational, financial or strategic information for investors.
The document formally confirms Vale’s ongoing compliance with U.S. reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. While routine in nature, the filing underscores the company’s continued presence in U.S. capital markets and its obligation to provide periodic disclosures to American regulators and shareholders.

Vale reported its full-year 2025 results on December 31, 2025, showing consolidated net operating revenue of R$213.6 billion, roughly flat versus 2024, but net income attributable to shareholders dropped to R$13.8 billion from R$31.6 billion a year earlier. The decline in profitability reflects a sharp R$25.1 billion impairment and loss on disposals of non-current assets, higher income tax expenses and lower operating income, even as cash generation from operations remained strong at R$74.3 billion.
The company continued to deploy significant cash outflows on legacy issues and financial commitments in 2025, including R$4.8 billion for the Brumadinho dam disaster programs, R$2.1 billion for dam de-characterization, and R$5.1 billion related to participative debentures, which weighed on net cash from operating activities, down to R$48.8 billion from R$50.2 billion in 2024. Comprehensive income attributable to shareholders fell to R$9.8 billion from R$36.1 billion, pressured by adverse foreign-currency translation effects, and basic earnings per share more than halved to R$3.24, underscoring how asset impairments, taxes and ongoing remediation payments are constraining returns to investors despite resilient top-line performance and operating cash flow.

For the year ended December 31, 2025, Vale reported net operating revenue of $38.4 billion, broadly flat versus 2024 but below 2023 levels, as gross profit slipped to $13.5 billion. Net income attributable to shareholders fell sharply to $2.35 billion from $6.17 billion in 2024, pressured by a $4.6 billion net impairment and disposal charge that weighed on operating income, which dropped to $5.9 billion.
The miner continued to generate solid cash from operations, with $8.8 billion in net operating cash flow in 2025, though this was down from 2023 as it absorbed ongoing payments tied to the Brumadinho and Samarco dam failures. Heavy capital expenditure and settlement outflows were partly offset by new borrowing and subordinated notes issuance, leaving financing cash flow slightly positive and underscoring Vale’s need to balance shareholder returns, legacy obligations, and investment in its asset base.

Vale’s fiscal council has reviewed the company’s full set of financial statements and management report for the year ended Dec. 31, 2025 and, relying on the independent auditors’ work, concluded they comply with Brazilian corporate law and are suitable for submission to the ordinary general shareholders’ meeting. The council also examined management’s proposal for the allocation of 2025 results and deemed it appropriate for shareholder consideration, signaling internal endorsement of Vale’s financial reporting and profit distribution plans as of Feb. 12, 2026.
The opinions, signed in Rio de Janeiro on Feb. 12, 2026 by the fiscal council members, clear a key governance hurdle ahead of the upcoming annual meeting, where shareholders will vote on the accounts and the allocation of earnings. This step reinforces the company’s adherence to local corporate governance requirements and provides additional assurance to investors regarding the integrity of Vale’s 2025 financial disclosures and capital allocation framework.

In February 2026, Vale reported on the activities of its statutory Audit and Risk Committee for the 2025 fiscal year, detailing its fully independent composition and leadership changes over the year, including the appointment of Heloísa Belotti Bedicks as coordinator from July 2025. The committee, supported by external experts, met 11 times in 2025 for lengthy sessions that covered 157 topics, underscoring an intensive oversight agenda focused on financial reporting quality, risk management and compliance.
The report highlights the committee’s broad remit supervising financial statements prepared under Brazilian practices and IFRS, interactions with PricewaterhouseCoopers, and close monitoring of contingent liabilities, related-party transactions and Vale Base Metals’ financials. It also documents tight coordination with the Audit and Compliance Board on ethics, anti-corruption measures, whistleblowing, internal audit, data-driven monitoring and regulatory interactions with SEC, CVM and B3, signaling a continued push to strengthen internal controls, transparency and governance, which is material for investors and regulators following Vale’s risk and compliance track record.

In its management report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, Vale reported consolidated net sales revenue of BRL 213.6 billion, adjusted EBITDA of BRL 85.9 billion and net income attributable to shareholders of BRL 13.8 billion, supported by stronger iron ore, copper and nickel production and BRL 48.8 billion of operating cash flow. The company highlighted progress in safety, governance, structural efficiency and dam management, while investing BRL 30.6 billion and approving BRL 23.4 billion in dividends and interest on capital, reinforcing its positioning as a key low-carbon supplier to industrial and energy-transition economies.
Iron ore output reached 336 million tonnes in 2025, the highest level since 2018, with sales of 314 million tonnes, but segment EBITDA fell 6% to BRL 76.7 billion as lower benchmark prices and pellet premiums outweighed cost reductions and volume gains. Vale Base Metals delivered net revenues of BRL 46 billion, up 28.2% year-on-year, as copper and nickel production rose 9.8% and 10.8% respectively and adjusted EBITDA more than doubled to BRL 18.5 billion, driven by record copper output at Salobo, improved Canadian operations and tighter cost guidance for both metals.

Vale reported strong operational and financial results for the fourth quarter and full year 2025, released on February 12, 2026, with iron ore, copper and nickel sales all growing year on year and Proforma EBITDA rising to $4.8 billion in 4Q25 and $15.9 billion in 2025. The company reduced iron ore and base metals all-in costs for a second consecutive year, generated higher recurring free cash flow, cut expanded net debt to $15.6 billion and confirmed $2.8 billion of shareholder payouts in early 2026, even as headline net income was hit by impairments and legacy provisions.
Operationally, Vale reached its highest iron ore and copper output since 2018 and double‑digit nickel growth, supported by improved asset reliability and ramp‑ups at Capanema, Vargem Grande, VBME and Onça Puma, while advancing new projects such as Serra Sul +20, the Bacaba copper project and a potential Sudbury copper joint venture with Glencore. The miner also marked progress on ESG and reparation fronts, removing emergency levels from key tailings dams, eliminating another upstream structure, co‑leading a Brazilian mining decarbonization initiative, and advancing compensation and reparation programs related to the Brumadinho and Mariana disasters, with most Brumadinho commitments and substantial Samarco payouts already executed.

On February 9, 2026, Vale reported that three preliminary asset-freeze requests totaling R$ 2.846 billion tied to recent environmental incidents had been denied by Brazilian courts, leaving only one pending request for R$ 200 million. The company noted that courts have nonetheless upheld other preliminary measures, including the continued suspension of operations at its Fábrica and Viga units, which Vale had already halted on January 25, 2026, and the requirement to prepare a Degraded Areas Recovery Plan.
Vale emphasized that the overflows at the Fábrica and Viga units in January 2026 were unrelated to any of its dams, which it said remain in safe condition under 24/7 monitoring. It stated that investigations into the causes are ongoing, while it prioritizes protection of people, communities, and the environment, cooperates with authorities, and continues sediment removal and cleanup activities in the affected areas, developments that may influence operational continuity and regulatory scrutiny.

Vale emphasized that the January 2026 overflows are unrelated to any of its dams, which it says remain in safe, continuously monitored condition, and noted it is cooperating with authorities, investigating the causes, removing sediments and advancing a Degraded Area Recovery Plan. The proceedings underscore renewed legal and environmental scrutiny of Vale’s operations in Minas Gerais, with potential financial exposure and reputational implications as the company seeks to demonstrate improved risk management and remediation efforts following past disasters in the region.

In January 2026, Vale reported that it delivered strong operational results in 2025, surpassing its original production guidance across all business segments as iron ore and copper output reached their highest levels since 2018, at 336 million tonnes and 382,400 tonnes respectively, while nickel production rose to 177,200 tonnes, the strongest since 2022. Fourth-quarter 2025 iron ore output climbed 6% year-on-year to 90.4 million tonnes, driven by robust performance at Brucutu and the ramp-up of the Capanema and VGR1 projects, even as Northern System volumes fell on maintenance and run-of-mine constraints; pellets production declined 9% to 8.3 million tonnes amid weaker market conditions, with pellet feed redirected to fines to optimize value, and the São Luís pellet plant kept under maintenance pending a market-driven restart decision. Copper production in Q4 2025 increased 6% year-on-year to 108,100 tonnes, the highest quarterly level since 2018, underpinned by record Salobo volumes and steady operations at Sossego and Canadian assets, while nickel output edged up 2% to 46,200 tonnes on the successful commissioning of Onça Puma’s second furnace and the ramp-up of Voisey’s Bay underground mines. Iron ore sales for the quarter rose 4.5% year-on-year to 84.9 million tonnes, copper and nickel sales also grew, and realized prices for iron ore fines and copper improved, though iron ore all‑in premiums and pellet price premia declined, reflecting lower market premiums and a strategic shift toward medium‑grade products such as Mid‑grade Carajás, BRBF blends and concentrated products in China to maximize margins and value generation.
