Quarterly figures set the baseline

Vale's latest quarterly report delivered USD 10.24 billion in revenue and USD 0.36 in earnings per share, compared with USD 10.47 billion and USD 0.46 expected, respectively, according to MarketBeat.

On September 10, 2026, the company paid a special dividend of USD 0.31 per share, also reported by MarketBeat.

Analyst caution meets a defined date
