- FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE
In 2023, the Group faced financial challenges, with post-tax losses increasing from ZMW3,786 million (US$222.03 million) in 2022 to ZMW4,076 million (US$198.59 million). This was primarily due to the underperformance of Mopani Copper Mine Plc, which reported a significant loss of ZMW8.97 billion (US$436.94 million). Mopani's lower copper production and operational issues were key contributors to this decline.
Despite these difficulties, the Group's total assets grew from ZMW48.92 billion (US$2.81 billion) in 2022 to ZMW58.46 billion (US$2.30 billion) in 2023, though the value in US Dollars decreased due to currency depreciation. Liabilities also increased significantly, primarily due to the interest accrued on Mopani's loan from Glencore and the resulting foreign exchange losses.
Retained earnings were in a deficit of ZMW16.462 billion (US$639.40 million) by the end of 2023, worsening from the previous year's deficit of ZMW11.44 billion (US$561.56 million).
However, the Company itself reported an increase in profits, rising to ZMW4.84 billion (US$235.90 million) in 2023 from ZMW4.25 billion (US$249.78 million) in 2022, demonstrating resilience amidst broader financial challenges within the ZCCM-IH Group.

Mopani Copper Mines plc (MCM) recorded a significant loss of ZMW 8.9 billion (US$436.94 million) in 2023, up from ZMW 5.05 billion (US$296.36 million) the previous year. This was due to decreased copper production, low equipment availability, delayed development, and multiple plant outages. In response, US$35 million was invested in sustaining and expanding projects, with full commissioning of expansion projects expected by 2027. In March 2024, a strategic investment of US$1.2 billion by International Resources Holding Limited (IRH), through its wholly-owned subsidiary Delta Mining Limited, was approved to enhance Mopani's financial and operational resilience.

-
- Mingomba Mining Limited (MML)
Mingomba Mining Limited, a new partnership formed in 2023, is conducting a drilling program using Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques in Chililabombwe. This will expedite orebody definition and subsequent mine development.

ZCCM-IH holds a 71.4% stake in Investrust Bank Plc. The Bank of Zambia announced a takeover of Investrust on 2 April 2024, and trading of its shares was suspended. ZCCM-IH is monitoring the situation.
- Outlook
ZCCM-IH remains focused on mining and mining-related investments, seeking partnerships that benefit the Zambian people and positioning itself to capitalize on opportunities in the mining sector.
