 BHP Billiton is a global leader in the resources industry. Formed from a merger between BHP and Billiton, we bring together an exceptional mix of quality, low-cost resource assets, complemented by a strong management team determined to operate our assets in an efficient manner. We have financial strength through our cashflow and balance sheet, a diversity of products and customers, as well as access to global capital markets and an enviable platform of growth opportunities. BHP Billiton Is The World's Largest Diversified Resources Company We are distinguished from other resource companies by the quality of our assets; our deep inventory of growth projects; our customer-focussed marketing; our diversification across countries, commodities and markets; and our Petroleum business. We have some 37,000 employees working in more than 100 operations in approximately 25 countries. Reflecting our aim to be a premier global company, we occupy industry leader or near industry leader positions in major commodity businesses, including aluminium, energy coal and metallurgical coal, copper, manganese, iron ore, uranium, nickel, silver and titanium minerals, and have substantial interests in oil, gas, liquefied natural gas and diamonds. The central tenet of the BHP Billiton business model is that its diversified portfolio of high quality assets provides more stable cash flows and greater capacity to drive growth than the traditional resource cyclicals. In 2005, we generated turnover of US$31.8 billion, earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) of US$9.3 billion, attributable profit of US$6.5 billion and available cash flow after interest and tax of US$8.7 billion. As at 19 August 2005 our market capitalisation was US$92 billion. BHP Billiton was created through the Dual Listed Companies (DLC) merger of BHP Limited (now BHP Billiton Limited) and Billiton Plc (now BHP Billiton Plc), which was concluded on 29 June 2001. BHP Billiton Limited and BHP Billiton Plc continue to exist as separate companies, but operate on a combined basis as BHP Billiton. The headquarters of BHP Billiton Limited, and the global headquarters of the combined BHP Billiton Group, are located in Melbourne, Australia. BHP Billiton Plc is located in London, United Kingdom. Both companies have identical boards of directors and are run by a unified management team. Shareholders in each company have equivalent economic and voting rights in the BHP Billiton Group as a whole. |
