Regis Resources Ltd has reported a strong quarterly performance for the period ending 31 March 2025, with both production and development activities progressing well at the Duketon and Tropicana sites. During the quarter, the company produced a total of 89.7 thousand ounces of gold at an All-In Sustaining Cost (AISC) of A$2,538 per ounce. Duketon contributed 58.1 thousand ounces at an AISC of A$2,753 per ounce, while the Tropicana operation delivered 31.6 thousand ounces at an AISC of A$2,046 per ounce. The operational highlights also include a commendable health and safety record, with a 12-month moving average lost time injury frequency rate of 0.4, significantly below the regional industry average. On the financial side, Regis Resources Ltd achieved gold sales of 81.0 thousand ounces, generating A$372 million in revenue at an average realised price of A$4,591 per ounce. Operating cash flow stood at A$221 million, split between A$132 million from Duketon and A$89 million from Tropicana. The company’s strong cash generation supported the early repayment of a A$300 million term loan and the establishment of a new undrawn A$300 million revolving credit facility, bolstering its balance sheet and financial flexibility. Capital expenditure during the quarter reached A$72 million, including spending on exploration and growth projects, reinforcing the company’s investment in future production. The announcement also highlighted notable growth initiatives, such as an updated Mineral Resource and Ore Reserve estimate for the Tropicana asset, which now stands at 5.4 million ounces of Mineral Resources and 1.9 million ounces of Ore Reserves. In addition, Regis’ joint development with AngloGold Ashanti saw the commencement of commercial production at the 61MW renewables project at Tropicana, incorporating a 24MW solar farm, four 6MW wind turbines, and a 13MW battery storage system. However, the company is currently involved in legal proceedings to challenge a Federal Minister’s decision regarding the McPhillamys Gold Project, with a judicial review scheduled for December 2025. Market participants can interpret the news through both bullish and bearish lenses. On the positive side, the robust operational performance, improved cash balance, proactive debt management, and progress on both growth and sustainability projects suggest a healthy outlook for future production and cost control. Furthermore, the solid safety performance and strategic development investments, such as the renewables project, underscore a commitment to modernising operations and potentially reducing future operational risks. Conversely, some caution is warranted due to the ongoing legal proceedings over the McPhillamys project, along with the inherent fluctuations in Ore Reserve estimates and the potential for short-term cost pressures. These factors could pose challenges to near-term operational stability, requiring close monitoring by investors.
