Diversified miner Exxaro, which supplies coal to Eskom, has reported it fared well amid SA's lockdown due to record coal exports and a weaker rand.

Ebitda is a measure of the underlying operational performance of a company, excluding items such as finance costs.Headline earnings per share is expected to fall by 18%-34% from the prior period's R17.30.

In morning trade on Tuesday Exxaro's share was up 3.95% to R144.18, on track for its best one-day performance in just over a month.
