KGHM Polska Miedz SA, the largest copper producer in the European Union, is strategically planning to expand its operations internationally in response to the rising demand for copper driven by the global shift toward cleaner technologies. Chief Executive Officer Remigiusz Paszkiewicz highlighted the company's intent to enhance its presence in Europe and Africa while also considering acquisitions in the Americas, particularly in Chile, Argentina, the United States, and Canada. The firm aims to increase its annual production by 100,000 tons through these efforts, particularly focusing on investments in Morocco. KGHM's stock has seen a remarkable 180% increase since last year, fueled by high copper prices and the overall energy boom. The company's international assets have proven profitable, contributing nearly 50% of its earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, despite only accounting for 20% of its total volumes. With the extraction tax in Poland being a concern, the company is keen on securing long-term, stable supplies to minimize costs and enhance operational efficiency.
