Analyst projections of the future price of DRDGOLD stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
FY2026 operating profit rose 83% and free cash flow rose 85%; DRDGOLD ended the year with R2.8 billion in cash, no debt and a higher dividend. This gives it capacity to fund growth while returning cash to shareholders. (DRDGOLD)
Gold production rose 10% in the September quarter and operating profit increased 42% year on year, helped by a 15% yield improvement despite lower throughput. Management said it remains on track for FY2027 production guidance of 160,000–170,000 ounces. (DRDGOLD)
Costs are rising: September-quarter cash operating costs increased 12% year on year and cost per kilogram rose 5%, with higher reagent, diesel and labour costs among the pressures. Persistent increases could erode the benefit of strong gold prices. (DRDGOLD)
Growth depends on timely approvals and commissioning of tailings facilities. The regional facility still needed regulatory approval and suitable weather for occupation, while delays to Withok permits could constrain future deposition and production. (DRDGOLD, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission)
DRDGOLD is unhedged, so a sustained fall in the US-dollar gold price or an adverse rand move could sharply reduce profitability and cash flow. The company’s FY2026 results also benefited from a 40% rise in the average rand gold price received, leaving earnings exposed to a reversal. (U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission)
