What the Analysts think about PAF
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Pan African Resources stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Pan African Resources stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
FY26 gold production rose 38.6% to 272,310oz and profit more than doubled to US$356.9m; operating cash flow lifted the group to US$185.8m of net cash. That stronger balance sheet supports its record proposed dividend and future investment. (Pan African Resources Plc)
The group expects FY27 production of 280,000–302,000oz, with higher output from the expanded MTR plant and a stronger contribution from Tennant as mining starts at White Devil. This offers a near-term path to growth beyond the record FY26 output. (Pan African Resources Plc)
The Soweto tailings project could add 35,000–40,000oz of annual production over about 15 years; its study estimates a US$109m post-tax NPV at a 13% discount rate. Royal Sheba and Poplar add further longer-term growth options. (Pan African Resources Plc)
All-in sustaining costs rose 16.7% to US$1,867/oz in FY26, and FY27 guidance rises to US$2,075–2,175/oz. Higher input costs and a stronger rand could erode the benefit of increased production. (Pan African Resources Plc)
Tennant produced 32,124oz in FY26 after a slower-than-expected ramp-up. The FY27 target of 48,000–52,000oz depends on plant upgrades and the higher-grade White Devil mine delivering as planned. (Pan African Resources Plc)
FY27 capital spending is planned at US$324m, while the proposed Soweto project alone requires about US$216m. Soweto still needs permits, financing and board approval, so delays or cost pressure could weigh on the growth programme. (Pan African Resources Plc, Pan African Resources Plc)
