SMALL-CAP - LOSERS
----------
South32 Ltd, down 5.6% at 202.00 pence, 12-month range 1.85p-209.20p. Posts mostly lower production performance in the first quarter, but guides for strong annual output growth overall, despite lowering guidance for coal. The Perth, Australia-based diversified miner said aluminium production rose by 13% to 279,000 tonnes for the first quarter that ended September 30, up from 248,000 tonnes in the prior year as its Southern African smelters continued to test their maximum technical capacity and the Brazil Aluminium smelter was successfully restarted. In its financial year 2023 guidance, the group expects 13% production growth.
