JSE-listed aluminium products company Hulamin has reported that it delivered a strong operational recovery for the six months ended June 30.
Following the resolution of the majority of the operational challenges experienced in the second half of 2025, the company noted that its core operations have stabilised and are ramping towards the upgraded plant's design run-rate.
The company said the successful commercialisation of its wide-canbody expansion across its customer base, together with the continued execution of its portfolio optimisation strategy through the disposal of noncore businesses, positioned the group well for the future.
Proceeds from these disposals will be applied to reduce debt and further strengthen the balance sheet.
While first-half earnings remained below the comparative period, the company said the substantial improvement in operational performance from second half of 2025 provided a solid foundation for improved financial performance in the periods ahead.
