Nexa Resources (NEXA) Q2 FY26 earnings call

Nexa Resources demonstrated a significant operational inflection in Q2 FY26, driven by a constructive metal price environment and recovery in Peruvian mining operations. Despite a fire at Cajamarquilla and a substantial tax settlement payment impacting free cash flow, the company achieved strong EBITDA growth and continued deleveraging. Key operational milestones, including the Aripuana tailings filter and Cerro Lindo's block caving, position Nexa for increased production and efficiency in the second half of the year, with management committed to meeting full-year guidance.
