IAMGOLD (IAG) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Iamgold Corp is poised for continued financial improvement, as projected earnings are expected to rise approximately 11% in 2025, driven by positive insurance experience gains that outweigh decreases in risk adjustments and CSM amortization. The company's Q4 2024 core return on equity (ROE) registered at 16.9%, exceeding its medium-term target of 15%, indicative of strong operational efficiency and profitability. Additionally, adjusted earnings per share (EPS) estimates for 2025 and 2026 reflect an upward revision, with expectations increasing to $12.63 and $13.79, respectively, underscoring a favorable outlook for the company’s financial performance.
Bears say
Iamgold Corp's operational core earnings for Q4/24 experienced a notable decline of approximately 16% quarter-over-quarter, totaling $26 million, which fell short of expectations projected at $35 million. Additionally, while the total solvency ratio of the holding company was a solid 139%, this marked a decrease of 1 percentage point from the previous quarter and was below the anticipated level of 146%, providing concerns regarding financial health. Furthermore, the company's price-to-book ratio of 1.82x exceeds its historical average of 1.43x, indicating potential overvaluation relative to historical performance despite being slightly lower than the peer average of 1.84x.
