Royal Gold

Royal Gold Inc enquires and manages precious metal royalties and streams, with a focus on gold. The company operates by purchasing a percentage of the metal produced from a mineral property for an initial payment, without assuming responsibility of mining operations. Similarly, precious metal streams are purchase agreements with mine operators providing the right to purchase all or a portion of one or more metals produced from a mine, in exchange for an upfront deposit payment. Generally Royal Gold does not conduct any work on the properties in which it holds royalty and streaming assets. The company owns a portfolio of producing, development, evaluation, and exploration royalties and streams, and the majority of group revenue is generated from Canada, Mexico, Chile, and the United States.

2025년에는 금 가격이 상승세를 지속할 것으로 예상되지만, 지난해 27% 급등에 비해 상승 속도는 느릴 것으로 보인다. 애널리스트들은 연말까지 현재 수준에서 7% 상승할 것으로 예상하며, 이는 보다 완만하면서도 꾸준한 상승을 나타낸다.

Shares of stocks in the broader metals and mining sector are trading higher in possible sympathy with Rio Tinto and Glencore who announced discussions regarding a potential merger, the largest in mining industry history.

Royal Gold, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RGLD#NASDAQ">RGLD</a>) (together with its subsidiaries, "Royal Gold" or the "Company," "we" or "our") announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary, RGLD Gold AG, sold approximately 46,900 gold equivalent ounces (GEOs)1 comprised of approximately 36,600 ounces of gold, 478,900 ounces of silver and 1,300 tonnes of copper related to its streaming agreements during the three-month period ended December 31, 2024 (the "fourth quarter"). RGLD Gold AG had approximately 15,500 ounces of gold and 338,400 ounces of silver in inventory at December 31, 2024.
RGLD Gold AG's average realized gold, silver and copper prices for the fourth quarter were $2,662 per ounce, $31.65 per ounce and $9,313 per tonne ($4.22 per pound), respectively. Cost of sales was approximately $521 per GEO for the fourth quarter. Cost of sales is specific to the Company's streaming agreements and is the result of RGLD Gold AG's purchase of gold, silver or copper for cash payments at a set contractual price, or a percentage of the prevailing market price of gold, silver or copper when purchased.

Royal Gold Announces Q4 Sale Of 46.9K Gold Equivalent Ounces; Average Prices: Gold $2,662/Oz, Silver $31.65/Oz, Copper $9,313/Tonne; Inventory: 15.5K Gold Ounces, 338.4K Silver Ounces; Cost of Sales $521/GEO

Investment bank Jefferies has upgraded Royal Gold Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RGLD#NASDAQ">RGLD</a>) to a Buy rating, boosting its price target by 16%, from $154 to $178. The bank sees compelling growth potential from the streaming and royalty business leader for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/gold">precious metals</a>.
According to Jefferies analysts, Royal Gold could see a 10% hike in year-over-year sales, accompanied by growth from mines across the Americas. The largest contributions come from North America (40% of total revenue), followed by South America (35%) and Africa (25%). Royal Gold's unique business model ensures growth without substantial capital expenditures, as operator-funded expansions increase production.
Key growth catalysts include optimization and expansion at major mining operations. Highlights include increased throughput at the Mount Milligan mine in Canada and the ongoing ramp-up at the Barrick Gold's Pueblo Viejo mine in the Dominican Republic. Both projects could significantly increase the firm's long-term revenue growth.
Royal Gold also benefits from a healthy balance sheet, allowing it to pursue new deals and further optimize its portfolio. With minimal exposure to inflationary cost pressures due to its fixed-cost streaming agreements, the company is well-positioned for the current environment.
Interestingly, Jeffries forecasts an average of $2,658 per ounce in 2025, barely above gold's opening price for the year, $2,625. Although inflation fears have subsided and gold-backed BRICS currency hasn't materialized, central bank purchases provide support, reflecting the demand for gold as a safe-haven asset.
Even Goldman Sachs, which had a more optimistic $3,000 price target for 2025, recently moved the goalpost, seeing the price <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/01/42810847/goldman-sachs-delays-3000-gold-forecast-sees-fewer-rate-cuts-in-2025">reach that level in mid-2026</a>. They pointed at fewer than anticipated interest rate cuts as the main catalyst for the outlook.
Still, beyond the commodity&#8217;s price, which constitutes the largest part of its portfolio (75% in 2025), Royal Gold has more tools for generating value for its shareholders. 
The firm recently announced a 12.5% increase in its quarterly dividend, raising it to $0.45 per share and giving it a forward yield of 1.4%. The payments have steadily risen over the last decade, and with a low 27% cash payout ratio, the firm has plenty of leeway to continue the practice.

Jefferies Upgrades Royal Gold For Compelling Growth Potential

Jefferies analyst David Hove upgrades Royal Gold (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RGLD#NASDAQ">RGLD</a>) from Hold to Buy and raises the price target from $154 to $178.

Price Target

Jefferies Upgrades Royal Gold to Buy, Raises Price Target to $178

Gold prices are expected to continue their upward trajectory in 2025, though at a slower pace compared to last year's remarkable 27% rally. Analysts anticipate a 7% increase from current levels by the end of the year, signaling a more moderate yet steady rise.
What Happened: Wall Street analysts project that gold prices will climb to about $2,795 per troy ounce by the end of 2025, a 7% increase from current levels, Financial Times <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/9fa96c1d-03f2-4d25-9644-b29ae19407aa">reported</a> on Thursday. This forecast comes on the heels of significant central bank purchases, which saw global institutions buy 694 tonnes of gold in the first nine months of 2024.
Key drivers of the expected increase include central banks' diversification away from the U.S. dollar following sanctions on Russia, anticipated interest rate cuts by the U.S. Federal Reserve, and rising concerns about U.S. government debt under President-elect Donald Trump.
Henrik Marx, global head of trading at Heraeus Precious Metals, said, &#8220;Whatever he announces will increase debt, leading to a weaker dollar and increased inflation. That is usually a nice mixture for gold."
 Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and Ukraine are also contributing to the bullish outlook for gold.

Notably, Goldman Sachs has issued the most optimistic forecast, expecting prices to hit $3,000 per troy ounce by year's end. Meanwhile, Barclays and Macquarie have issued more conservative projections, predicting a drop to approximately $2,500 per troy ounce, a 4% decline from current levels. 
"Momentum is taking back over, combined with geopolitical tensions, which is going to add more fuel to the fire," said Michael Haigh, head of commodities research at Société Générale. Haigh predicts that gold prices could reach $2,900 per troy ounce by the end of 2025.
Why It Matters: Gold's role as a safe-haven asset remains prominent amid global economic uncertainties and geopolitical tensions. Central banks have been increasingly diversifying their reserves, moving away from the dollar to mitigate risks. The World Gold Council has described this year's growth as "positive but much more modest" compared to 2024.
However, the rise of alternative assets like Bitcoin ETFs is also reshaping the investment landscape. Investors are exploring new <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/currency-etfs/24/12/42750554/golds-shine-fades-as-bitcoin-etfs-rise-the-new-safe-haven-champion">safe-haven options</a>, potentially challenging gold's dominance in this space. The interplay between traditional and emerging assets will be a critical trend to watch in 2025.
Price Action: As per <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>, gold ETFs have increased in the past one year, as of Tuesday, 31st Dec. SPDR Gold Shares (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GLD#NYSE">GLD</a>) was up by 26.85%, iShares Gold Trust (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IAU#NYSE">IAU</a>) was rose by 26.85% and abrdn Physical Gold Shares ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SGOL#NYSE">SGOL</a>) was up by 26.90%.

Gold Prices To Climb 7% In 2025 Amid Trump's Return To White House And Geopolitical Tensions: 'Momentum Is Taking Back Over'

Shares of stocks in the broader metals and mining sector are trading lower amid overall market weakness following the Fed's rate decision to cut rates by 25 basis points.

Royal Gold's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RGLD#NYSE">RGLD</a>) short percent of float has risen 8.0% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 2.37 million shares sold short, which is 5.4% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 5.7 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

Raymond James Maintains Outperform on Royal Gold, Raises Price Target to $186

Renowned economist Peter Schiff advised investors to buy gold dips amid concerns over potential inflation following Donald Trump&#8216;s presidential election victory over Kamala Harris.
What Happened: &#8220;The best Trump trade now is buying the dip in gold and gold mining stocks,&#8221; Schiff posted on X. &#8220;Cutting taxes is easy. We know from experience that substantive spending cuts are impossible. Even Reagan couldn&#8217;t do it, despite making greater promises to do so. Trump will make inflation great again.&#8221;
Trump secured 277 electoral votes and 51% of the popular vote against Harris, according to Associated Press figures. 
Major gold mining stocks, including Barrick Gold (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOLD#NYSE">GOLD</a>), Newmont (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NEM#NYSE">NEM</a>), and Royal Gold (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RGLD#NASDAQ">RGLD</a>), declined over 2% on Wednesday, while gold spot prices traded at $2,656, down 0.09%.

<h3>About Royal Gold</h3>
Royal Gold Inc enquires and manages precious metal royalties and streams, with a focus on gold. The company operates by purchasing a percentage of the metal produced from a mineral property for an initial payment, without assuming responsibility of mining operations.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Royal Gold's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.24%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
