Sibanye Stillwater Ltd (SBSW)

What Sibanye Stillwater Ltd does

is subject to high fixed costs which may impact its profitability The mining industry, particularly the gold and PGM mining industry, is characterised by high fixed costs. The majority of operating costs of each mining operation is fixed and does not vary significantly with the production rate and, therefore, a relatively small change in productivity as a result of, for example, strikes or other work stoppages could have a disproportionate effect on operating and financial results. Costs are generally more stable than revenues, the latter being driven by commodity price and currency exchange rates, which can be volatile. Accordingly, changes in revenue due to volatility in input costs, commodity prices or currency exchange rate movements could have a material adverse effect on Sibanye-Stillwater’s growth or financial performance.
