Vale S.A. updated its outlook, highlighting higher expected cash generation from iron ore and detailed price sensitivities for its nickel business. For 2026, the Iron Ore Solutions segment now projects an increase of about US$1.5 billion in free cash flow, driven mainly by roughly US$1.2 billion higher EBITDA and around US$425 million from foreign exchange and fuel hedging, partially offset by about US$0.1 billion more sustaining capital expenditures.
The revision compares a pre‑conflict scenario using January–February 2026 price levels with a post‑conflict scenario reflecting stronger iron ore and oil prices and a different BRL/USD rate. Vale also presented nickel segment sensitivities, showing how annual EBITDA and free cash flow could change in 2026 and 2027 at nickel prices between US$16,000 and US$20,000 per tonne, based on analysts’ consensus prices for copper, cobalt, gold, platinum and palladium. The company stresses these are hypothetical estimates, not performance guarantees, and they may be revised as market conditions evolve.
