Harmony Gold Forecast
The mining company reported year-on-year production guidance between 1.4 million to 1.5 million ounces – a conservative guidance. However, CEO Peter Steenkamp states that the guidance is just because of upcoming investments.
Additionally, production costs to extract gold are also expected to increase between 13% to 22%, thus the modest outlook on production.
Company earnings are expected to grow by 17.8% at the end of the year, with analysts predicting another blockbuster year for the miner.
Seventeen hedge funds have maintained their bullish sentiment on the stock with stakes worth $171.88 million. The miner’s largest shareholder, Kopernik Global Investors, has a stake valued at $26.9 million as of June 2024.
Shareholders are particularly excited about Harmony Gold advancing several key development projects, including the Wafi-Golpu copper-gold deposit in Papua New Guinea, and the Eva Copper Project in Australia.
These two new projects are expected to enhance production and significantly expand the international footprint of Harmony Gold.
