What the Analysts think about DRDGOLD

Analyst projections of the future price of DRDGOLD stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Vision 2028 is moving from construction towards production. The expanded DP2 plant at FWGR has poured first gold, the supporting pipeline was about 95% complete, and Libanon is planned to add up to 600,000 tonnes a month initially, helping move annual output towards six tonnes by 2028. (DRDGOLD, Mining Weekly)
FY2026’s 42% revenue growth was driven mainly by a 40% rise in the rand gold price, while gold sold increased only 1%. That leaves DRDGOLD highly exposed to a reversal in gold prices, especially because it normally operates unhedged. (DRDGOLD, BusinessDay)
Input pressures are already lifting costs: group cash operating costs rose 7% in FY2026, with sodium cyanide shortages, diesel and trucking among the causes. Management’s FY2027 guide is higher again, at about R1.099 million per kilogram for cash costs and R1.23 million for all-in sustaining costs. (DRDGOLD, MetaTrader)
Vision 2028 still carries execution and regulatory risk. The Withok tailings facility has slipped to an expected 2029 completion, subject to approvals, and a longer delay could force Ergo to cut throughput sharply while the company waits for additional storage capacity. (DRDGOLD, MetaTrader)
