Higher export volumes and cost-cutting will ensure that Australian-listed iron ore producers deliver good full-year results in the August 2014 reporting season. However, the sector faces challenges in the 2014-15 fiscal year, including expectations of continued weakness in the iron ore price. This will offset further growth in export volumes, with companies whose sole focus is iron ore likely to be hardest hit. Stuart Howe of Bell Potter notes that iron ore producers may continue to pay strong dividends
