In 2025, all adjusted cash flow was generated from royalty interest as IOC did not declare a dividend.
Adjusted cash flow per share in Q1 2026 was $0.31, consistent with Q1 2025.
Operational performance and outlook
IOC saleable production in 2025 was 15.9M tonnes, below nameplate capacity, due to pit health and equipment reliability issues.
Q1 2026 production was 3.4M tonnes, down 13% year-over-year, constrained by haul truck failures and lower payloads.
2026 sales guidance is 15–18M tonnes, but actual sales are expected at the low end of this range.
Ongoing pit health improvements will increase stripping rates, likely reducing production and cash flow for dividends.
IOC is purchasing 6 new haul trucks in 2026 to address operational challenges.

Global crude steel production declined 2% in 2025, with China down 4%; Q1 2026 saw further declines.
