BHP Group Ltd (ASX: BHP) reported its FY25 result earlier this week and analysts have given their view on the business and how the BHP share price could perform in the coming year.

As the chart above shows, the miner is close to its 2025 high – investors appear to be more positive now than they have been for a lot of the current calendar year.

The BHP result was impacted by lower iron ore and coal prices, though an improvement for copper helped offset some of that pain. Under those circumstances, it’s not surprising that revenue, underlying net profit and dividend all reduced.

But, analysts were reasonably pleased by what they saw from the result and the potential outlook.
