On September 2, CHINFMINING fell 3.25% in regular trading, trading at HK$16.02/share, with turnover of HK$16.6145 million, erasing the prior session's gains.
The copper sector came under broad-based selling pressure. Among sector peers, JIANGXI COPPER fell 3.01%, CDAYENONFER dropped 3.8%, and JINXUN RESOURCE declined 2.13%. Industry analysts noted that copper mine supply faces significant uncertainty in the second half, with processing fees falling into negative territory and squeezing smelter margins. Meanwhile, downstream buyers showed limited willingness to chase higher prices, with consumption described as mediocre, keeping near-term copper prices under pressure.
Additionally, the market continues to digest the company's recently completed $300 million zero-coupon convertible bond issuance due 2031, with an initial conversion price of HK$22.18 per share — a 29% premium to the August 26 closing price. Proceeds are earmarked for the Luanshya Shaft No. 28 sulfide ore project in Zambia. The company's H1 fundamentals remain solid, with attributable profit of $434 million (up 64.68% YoY), revenue of $2.261 billion (up 29.09%), and operating cash flow of $1.043 billion (up 98.3%).
