MELBOURNE, Australia--BHP Billiton Ltd. (BHP.AU) will lift its final dividend after a swing back to a full-year profit.
The Melbourne-based company also said it had determined its U.S. onshore oil-and-gas operations were non-core and it was actively pursuing options to exit the assets for value.
The company, the world's largest listed miner by market value, recorded a net profit of US$5.89 billion in the 12 months through June, against a year-earlier loss of US$6.39 billion after absorbing an impairment hit on its onshore U.S. shale business and a charge for the fatal 2015 dam failure at the Samarco iron-ore operation in Brazil.
Underlying earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization--a measure tracked by analysts--rose 64% to US$20.3 billion. That was modestly below the US$20.37 billion median of 10 forecasts compiled by The Wall Street Journal
Revenue for the year climbed 24% to US$38.29 billion from US$30.91 billion.
BHP's board declared a final dividend of US$0.43 a share for a full-year payout of US$0.83, up on US$0.30 last year.
