Antofagasta's historically high returns on invested capital will evaporate in a world of $2 copper.
Antofagasta reported its 2017 fourth-quarter production results and provided 2018 production guidance, both of which were roughly in line with our expectations. We’re decreasing our fair value estimate to GBX 410 per share from GBX 419, as the company is forecasting higher unit production costs in 2018 and the pound has strengthened relative to the U.S. dollar since our last update. However, the impact of higher unit costs will be partially offset by our increased near-term copper price forecast...Antofagasta is a Chilean copper mining group engaged in the discovery, development and operation of copper mining assets. Co. operates four copper mines in Chile, two of which also produce significant volumes of by-products. In addition to mining, Co. has a transport division that provides rail and road cargo services in northern Chile primarily to mining customers, including to some of Co.'s own operations. Co. is organized into two business divisions based on their products: Mining and Railway and other transport services. The mining division is split by mine and exploration activity. The transport division provides rail cargo and road cargo together with a number of ancillary services.
