Calima Energy Ltd (ASX: CE1): High production in 4Q23 and 1Q24
- • 3Q23 production was 3,683 boe/d, slightly below the company’s guidance due to maintenance, turn-around operations at two of the production facilities and unscheduled downhole maintenance on pumping equipment on a few of the more productive wells.
- This is more than offset by the high current production of ~4,100 boe/d following Pisces 10 and 11 being brought into production.
- Calima forecasts 4Q23 production of 4,028 boe/d and we have increased our 4Q23 production forecast of 3,740 boe/d to 4,030 boe/d to be in line with Calima’s guidance.

The Sherwin-Williams Company: Acquisition Game-Changer! How Oskar Nolte & Klumpp Coatings Set the Stage for Future Wins! – Major Drivers
- The Sherwin-Williams Company delivered a solid result and managed an all-around beat in the last quarter.
- In the third quarter, Sherwin-Williams’ Paint Stores Group exhibited commendable resilience, with a 3.6% increase in sales, despite a demanding 21.5% comparison.
- Within the Paint Stores Group, the Protective & Marine sector emerged as the fastest-growing, achieving double-digit percentage sales growth against a mid-teens comparison.
Southern Copper Corporation: Can It Defy The Odds? – Major Drivers
- Southern Copper Corporation delivered a strong result and managed an all-around beat in the last quarter, demonstrating resilience and adaptability.
- Copper, constituting a significant 75% of their sales, faced a marginal 9% decline in production, primarily due to diminished ore grades in the Cuajone mine.
- Amidst these challenges, Southern Copper remained proactive, predicting a 6% increase in copper production for the year 2023, aiming for 917,000 tons.
