If you have BHP Group Ltd (ASX: BHP) stock in your portfolio, then you have a fair number of events to keep an eye on in the near future.

Let's take a look at what the mining giant has lined up in its calendar.

BHP's quarterly update

The first event on the horizon is the miner's quarterly update later this month. That is scheduled to drop on 18 October and will provide investors with an idea of how the company is tracking in comparison to its FY 2024 guidance.

As a reminder, management's guidance includes:

  • Copper production of 1,720kt to 1,910kt with Escondida unit costs of US$1.40 to US$1.70 per pound
  • Iron ore production of 254Mt to 264.5Mt with WAIO (iron ore) unit costs of US$17.40 to US$18.90 a tonne
  • Met coal production of 28Mt to 31Mt
  • Energy coal production of 13Mt to 15Mt
  • Nickel production of 77kt to 87kt

Q&A with shareholders of BHP stock

The very next day, the miner will hold a shareholder question and answer session with BHP's Chair, Ken MacKenzie.

The Big Australian notes that this is an online event where shareholders can ask its leaders about the matters most important to them and receive answers via its webcast.

Annual general meeting

Finally, at the very start of next month, BHP will be holding its annual general meeting for 2023 at the Adelaide Convention Centre.

At the 1 November event, BHP stockholders will be invited to vote on matters such as the re-election of non-executive directors, the adoption of its remuneration report, and the approval of equity grants to its CEO.

The board considers that all but one resolution is in the best interests of BHP shareholders and recommends that you vote in favour of those items. As they have a personal interest in one item (item 12), they have abstained from making a recommendation to shareholders for it.

Plenty to look forward to!
