Glencore's 2023 earnings halve on lower commodity prices
  + stars: | 2024-02-21 | by ( ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +1 min
An employee stands by a logo for Glencore Agriculture in Glencore Plc's offices in Rotterdam, Netherlands. Glencore said on Wednesday lower commodity prices had halved its earnings last year, and slashed its payout to investors, as the company saves to fund the acquisition of a 77% stake in Teck Resources' metallurgical coal business. After two consecutive record years, adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA) halved to $17.1 billion from $34.1 billion a year earlier, in line with analysts' consensus estimates of $17.15 billion. In preliminary 2023 results, the miner and trader said net debt stood at $4.92 billion at the end of the year, from just $75 million at the end of 2022. London-listed Glencore's payout of $1.6 billion announced on Wednesday does not include a new buyback scheme, after the existing one ends this month, nor a special dividend, as the company uses its cash to fund the $6.9 billion acquisition of Canadian miner Teck's steelmaking coal unit.

Viterra was the third-largest corn exporter and No. Bunge said it plans to repurchase $2 billion of its stock to enhance accretion from the deal to adjusted profit.

Bloomberg News had reported on May 25 that Bunge and Viterra were in talks to combine, without providing details on the deal's terms and timing. Acquiring Viterra would bring Bunge revenue's revenues -- $67.2 billion in 2022 -- in line with Archer-Daniels-Midland, which registered sales of nearly $102 billion last year. In early 2017, Viterra, then known as Glencore Agriculture, attempted a takeover of Bunge, which was then valued at $11 billion. In May 2017, Bunge rebuffed Glencore after the latter made an informal approach to discuss "a possible consensual business combination." Viterra expanded its business of buying and selling grain in the United States through its $1.1 billion acquisition of Gavilon last year.

The CFTC filed 82 enforcement actions in fiscal 2021, with fraud cases representing the largest number of actions, the agency's data showed. More than 20% of the year's cases related to digital assets, the CFTC said in a statement.
