Description: NEXA Nexa Resources October 24, 2025

Nexa Resources S.A. (NYSE: NEXA) is a Luxembourg-registered, vertically integrated zinc miner and smelter that operates four polymetallic mines in Peru and Brazil and three zinc-focused smelting facilities (one in Peru, two in Brazil). The business is split between a Mining segment, which extracts zinc, copper, lead, silver and gold, and a Smelting segment, which refines zinc into metallic zinc, zinc oxide and a suite of by-products such as sulfuric acid and copper cement.

In 2023 the company produced roughly 610 kt of metallic zinc and 1.2 Mt of zinc-containing concentrates, generating an operating cash flow of about $450 million and maintaining a net-debt-to-EBITDA ratio near 2.0×, reflecting a relatively disciplined balance sheet for a mid-tier miner.

Key economic drivers include the persistent global zinc deficit (the International Lead and Zinc Study Group forecasts a 2.5 Mt shortfall through 2025) and strong demand from construction, automotive and emerging electric-vehicle battery applications, which together underpin a multi-year upside to zinc spot prices that have risen ~30 % since early 2022.

Sector-wide, Nexa benefits from its diversified by-product stream-particularly copper and silver-which provides a hedge against zinc price volatility, while its location in the Central Andes gives it access to low-cost ore grades and relatively inexpensive labor compared with peers in North America or Australia.
