ZCCM Investments Holdings Plc
("ZCCM-IH" or the "Company")
Trading Statement
In accordance with Section 3.4(b) of the Lusaka Securities Exchange ("LuSE") Listings Requirements, the Board of Directors of ZCCM-IH hereby advises shareholders that the Earnings Per Share ("EPS") for the financial year ended 31 December 2025 is expected to be approximately 112% lower than that reported for the corresponding financial year ended 31 December 2024.
The significant decline in earnings is primarily attributed to the absence of the one-off investment gain recognised in 2024 which did not recur in 2025, as well as the underperformance of Mopani Copper Mines Plc and Konkola Copper Mines Plc, both of which are currently undergoing strategic operational reforms.
As a result, the Group recorded a net loss of ZMW 4.92 billion for the financial year ended 31 December 2025, compared to a net profit of ZMW 39.85 billion for the same period in 2024.
The audited abridged financial results for the financial year ended 31 December 2025 are expected to be published on the Securities Exchange News Service ("SENS") and in the local press on or about 19 September 2026.
Accordingly, shareholders are advised to exercise caution when dealing in the Company's securities until the financial results are published.
