Former Woodside CFOs and Justin Langer to comprise Mineral Resources' ethics and governance committee
Mineral Resources' all-important ethics and governance committee has gone from all-female to all-male with two new directors joining and Justin Langer shuffled in. The miner on Monday added seasoned bean counters Lawrie Tremaine and Ross Carroll to its board as independent non-executive directors. The duo will also be part of the three-person ethics and governance committee. The committee was set up in November to help restore MinRes' reputation after a series of scandals surrounding founder and chief executive Chris Ellison. The appointments of Mr Tremaine and Mr Carroll follow the abrupt resignations more than two months ago of the three female directors that comprised the committee. Denise McComish, Jacqueline McGill and Susie Corlett all quit MinRes within the space of a fortnight in April. Two senior in-house lawyers tasked with assisting the committee have also departed. MinRes on Monday said Mr Tremaine and Mr Carroll together brought 'a wealth of executive management, financial, strategic and capital markets expertise gained from senior leadership roles with ASX-listed companies across the resources, energy and mining services sectors'. Mr Tremaine was most recently the chief financial officer at Origin Energy for seven years until 2024 and prior to that was Woodside Energy's CFO. His career also includes 17 years at Alcoa and he currently serves as chair of MoneyCatcha, a private fintech firm. Mr Carroll, who is now chair of MinRes' ethics and governance committee, was CFO at a Hong Kong Stock Exchange-listed global base metals company MMG from 2015 to 2024. He was the chief of local mining services provider Macmahon between 2012 and 2015 and like Mr Tremaine, he has been CFO of Woodside. Former Australian test cricketer and coach Justin Langer now rounds out the ethics and governance committee. Mr Langer has been a MinRes board member since the beginning of 2023. More to come . . .

Those who invested in Mineral Resources (ASX:MIN) five years ago are up 116%
Generally speaking the aim of active stock picking is to find companies that provide returns that are superior to the market average. Buying under-rated businesses is one path to excess returns. For example, long term Mineral Resources Limited (ASX:MIN) shareholders have enjoyed a 88% share price rise over the last half decade, well in excess of the market return of around 16% (not including dividends). So let's investigate and see if the longer term performance of the company has been in line with the underlying business' progress. Check out our latest analysis for Mineral Resources To quote Buffett, 'Ships will sail around the world but the Flat Earth Society will flourish. There will continue to be wide discrepancies between price and value in the marketplace...' By comparing earnings per share (EPS) and share price changes over time, we can get a feel for how investor attitudes to a company have morphed over time. Mineral Resources' earnings per share are down 5.9% per year, despite strong share price performance over five years. This means it's unlikely the market is judging the company based on earnings growth. Because earnings per share don't seem to match up with the share price, we'll take a look at other metrics instead. On the other hand, Mineral Resources' revenue is growing nicely, at a compound rate of 22% over the last five years. In that case, the company may be sacrificing current earnings per share to drive growth. You can see how earnings and revenue have changed over time in the image below (click on the chart to see the exact values). It's good to see that there was some significant insider buying in the last three months. That's a positive. That said, we think earnings and revenue growth trends are even more important factors to consider. You can see what analysts are predicting for Mineral Resources in this interactive graph of future profit estimates. We'd be remiss not to mention the difference between Mineral Resources' total shareholder return (TSR) and its share price return. The TSR is a return calculation that accounts for the value of cash dividends (assuming that any dividend received was reinvested) and the calculated value of any discounted capital raisings and spin-offs. Mineral Resources' TSR of 116% for the 5 years exceeded its share price return, because it has paid dividends. Investors in Mineral Resources had a tough year, with a total loss of 38%, against a market gain of about 15%. However, keep in mind that even the best stocks will sometimes underperform the market over a twelve month period. On the bright side, long term shareholders have made money, with a gain of 17% per year over half a decade. It could be that the recent sell-off is an opportunity, so it may be worth checking the fundamental data for signs of a long term growth trend. It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand Mineral Resources better, we need to consider many other factors.
