About: BHP is a global diversified miner mainly supplying iron ore and copper. The merger of BHP Limited and Billiton PLC created the present-day BHP Group. The dual-listed structure from the 2001 BHP and Billiton merger was collapsed in 2022. Major assets include Pilbara iron ore and Escondida copper. Onshore US oil and gas assets were sold in 2018 and the remaining Petroleum assets were spun off and merged with Woodside in 2022, with BHP vesting the Woodside shares it received to BHP shareholders. It purchased copper miner Oz Minerals in fiscal 2023 and is entering the potash market through the development of its Jansen project in Canada. However, due to low nickel prices, BHP placed its nickel business on care and maintenance in 2024.

BHP: Iron Ore Spin-Off Might Bring Growth, But Dividends Are Good Enough
BHP is undervalued at 14x forward PE with a 5% dividend, offering solid returns even without divestment of iron ore and coal. A potential spin-off of iron ore and coal could unlock significant shareholder value, shifting BHP's focus to copper and potash for future growth. Copper demand is set to rise, and BHP's ramp-up in copper production and new discoveries like Vicuña position it well for long-term upside.
