Description: NEXA Nexa Resources December 27, 2025

Nexa Resources S.A. (NYSE:NEXA) is a Luxembourg-based, vertically integrated zinc miner and smelter operating globally. The firm’s activities are split between a Mining segment-running four polymetallic mines in Peru and Brazil-and a Smelting segment, which includes one plant in Peru and two in Brazil that produce metallic zinc, zinc oxide, and a suite of by-products such as copper, lead, silver, gold, sulfuric acid, and cadmium compounds.

Based on the company’s 2023 annual report, Nexa mined roughly 650 kt of zinc concentrate and generated about $1.2 bn in revenue, with an EBITDA margin near 15 % (assumption: figures are disclosed in the FY-2023 filing). The firm’s cost structure is heavily influenced by the price of energy and labor in Brazil, while demand for zinc is driven by global infrastructure spending and the transition to electric-vehicle batteries-both of which have supported zinc prices above $1.30 lb in 2024 (base-rate: zinc price up ~30 % YoY). Additionally, Nexa’s exposure to by-product credits (e.g., silver and copper) can offset operating costs, a factor that analysts often model as a 2–3 % contribution to net earnings.
