Base and Precious Metal Producer
National Canadian Airline
Large Soybean Operation
- World-renowned mining corporation looking to mitigate commodity price swings
- Our analysis recommended fixing price on lead (a by-product of silver smelting) vs. disposing of it or selling it at cash, to get the best price at the time
- Forecast production over the planning horizon
- Created a rolling hedge which regularly sold forward lead and other base metals on the London Metal Exchange (LME)
- Outcome: Stabilized cash flow and enhanced profit for the business.
