WOOD Flash – KAZ Minerals: 2Q18 trading update – on track to meet guidance

KAZ has just announced its 2Q18 trading update. The company remains on track to meet its 2018E guidance, confirmed by CEO Andrew Southam in this press release, which should be taken as a neutral/a small positive, in our view. Only zinc production was below the guidance run-rate in 1H18, but management expects grades to improve hoh. The good news is that the recent development project, Aktogay, is running at close to design capacity already, which bodes well for volumes in 2H18E.
