BHP Group Limited announced that the Federal Court of Australia has approved the settlement of the Australian Samarco shareholder class action. Under the terms of the settlement, BHP has agreed to pay the applicants AU$110 million, inclusive of interest and costs, with no admission of liability. BHP expects to recover the majority of this amount from its insurers, which reduces the net financial impact on the company.
BHP Group Limited has announced that, after preliminary discussions with the Board of Anglo American plc, it is no longer considering a combination of the two companies. BHP states that it still believes such a deal would have had strong strategic merits and created significant value for stakeholders, but it is confident in the potential of its existing organic growth strategy. The statement is made under Rule 2.8 of the UK City Code on Takeovers and Mergers, and BHP notes that it reserves the right to set aside this statement in the limited circumstances described in Note 2 to Rule 2.8.
BHP Group Limited reported that the English High Court has found BHP liable under Brazilian law for the 2015 Fundão dam failure, following a five‑month first stage trial. BHP intends to appeal. The court also upheld waivers and releases signed by claimants compensated in Brazil, which should reduce the size and value of the UK group action claims.
BHP highlighted ongoing remediation in Brazil and the October 2024 Brazil Agreement providing R$170 billion (US$32 billion) for reparation. More than 610,000 people have received compensation totaling approximately US$6.3 billion, including about 240,000 claimants from the UK action who signed releases. BHP now estimates an aggregate provision of US$5.5 billion at 31 October 2025, versus US$5.8 billion at 30 June 2025, reflecting spend and updated assessments.
Expected cash outflows relating to Samarco remain largely aligned with US$2.2 billion for FY2026 and US$0.5 billion for FY2027; approximately US$1 billion has been spent to date in FY2026. A second stage trial on causation is scheduled for October 2026 to March 2027, with any third stage on individual damages unlikely before 2028.
