TRX Stock Forecast & Price Target

Management at TRX Gold Corp anticipates an increase in gold production for FY2025 relative to FY2024, bolstered by the anticipated operational improvements from a newly constructed 2,000 tons per day processing plant. The company has benefited from favorable gold market conditions, reflected in a 27.4% rise in gold prices to $2,639 per ounce, alongside a 16% year-over-year increase in average realized price to $2,270 per ounce, resulting in a positive operating cash flow of $3.1 million. Additionally, stabilized cash costs and increased operational capacity position TRX Gold favorably to leverage the sustained strength in gold and silver prices, enhancing the overall valuation of the company's projects.

The negative outlook on TRX Gold's stock is primarily influenced by operational setbacks, specifically delays in accessing high-grade ore blocks at the Buckreef project due to contractor drill rig availability and adverse weather conditions. Despite higher gold prices, the company's cash costs rose to $1,103 per ounce from $904 per ounce in the previous fiscal year, indicating efficiency challenges that could impact profitability. Additionally, TRX Gold faced a significant loss of $2.7 million in the fair value of its derivative warrant liabilities, which contributed to an increased net loss for the quarter, overshadowing any potential revenue improvements.
