End of Q3 FY26 UPDATE31 Mar 2026 09:33
Here is where we are as we end Q3 FY26 today.....
We achieved an average gold price of A$5,014/oz in Q4 FY25 (1st April - 30th June 2025) which generated net revenue of A$487 million (including Copper) and an operating cash flow of A$310 million for the quarter, delivering a closing cash balance of A$575 million (from A$398 million at 31st March 2025), debt free.
We achieved an average gold price of A$5,277/oz in Q1 FY26 (1st July - 30th September 2025) which generated net revenue of A$476 million (including Copper) and an operating cash flow of A$284 million for the quarter, delivering a closing cash balance of A$750 million (from A$575 million at 30 June 2025), debt free.
We achieved an average gold price of A$6,301/oz in Q2 FY26 (1st October - 31st December 2025) which generated net revenue of A$507 million (including Copper) and an operating cash flow of A$406 million for the quarter, delivering a closing cash balance of A$948 million (from A$750 million at 30 September 2025), debt free.
The Gold price, throughout Q3 FY26, has only dropped below the above A$6,301/oz on TWO days (23rd/24th March). Since then we've been higher on every day so far this quarter.
The AVERAGE gold price in Q3 FY26 is A$6,984/oz, so nearly A$700/oz ABOVE the average price that we achieved in our sales last quarter (Q2 FY26)
And don't forget the COPPER:
Where we are on COPPER:
Q4 FY25 - 3,729t PRODUCED WITH SALES OF 3,740t @ A$ 12,718/t = A$ 47,565,320 (9.77% OF REVENUE)
Q1 FY26 - 3,366t PRODUCED WITH SALES OF 3,277t @ A$ 12,552/t = A$ 41,132,904 (8.64% OF REVENUE)
Q2 FY26 - 3,528t PRODUCED WITH SALES OF 3,301t @ A$ 14,652/t = A$ 48,366,252 (9.54% OF REVENUE)
Q3 FY26 - The AVERAGE COPPER price this quarter is UP around 15% compared with last quarter (Q2 FY26).
The AISC figure is the unknown, and may well have been affected, late in the quarter, by the fuel increases, but the increase in the COPPER price should offset/or partially offset much of that.
