DRDGOLD Limited's share price was $22.56 at the close on 3 November 2026. It has been moving sideways for 10 weeks. That is 17.7% below its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $20 and $39, and at that close it sat 14% of the way up from that low. Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, and it has been behind for 1 week running. Over the last 10 years the share price moved +158% while the S&P 500 moved +255%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. It was last ahead over 13 weeks in the week of 30 October 2026. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does DRDGOLD Limited pay? DRDGOLD Limited declared ZAR 12.00 per local share for Jun 2026, and ZAR 24.00 over the last four reported quarters. It reports in South African rand, and one US-listed share can stand for several local shares, so we do not set this against the dollar price or show a yield. ## Which stock lists is DRDGOLD Limited on? DRDGOLD Limited is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list. ## Is DRDGOLD Limited profitable? DRDGOLD Limited earned ZAR 2.3 B of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +82.9% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 4th quarter in a row of profit growth. Full-year FY26 profit was ZAR 4.3 B. Over 5 years profit has grown 24.2% a year on average. That is 38.1% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned ZAR 739 M. For the full year, FY26 profit was ZAR 4.3 B (+89.7% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed +49.8% on a year earlier and the margin moved +14.5 percentage points. Most of the change came from keeping more of each sale. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed +79.6% and revenue +33.8%. Profit is growing faster than sales: fixed costs are spread over more sales, so each extra dollar of revenue adds more to profit. This company reports in South African rand, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (ZAR); nothing is converted. ## How much revenue does DRDGOLD Limited make, and is it growing? DRDGOLD Limited reported ZAR 6.1 B of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, +49.8% on the same quarter a year earlier. That is the 9th quarter in a row with growth on the year before. Over 5 years it has grown 16.2% a year on average. The last full year, FY26, came in at ZAR 11.2 B. FY26 revenue was ZAR 11.2 B, +41.6% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew +33.8% on average, against 16.2% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing faster than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew +62.2%, against +35.4% a year over the last 8 quarters (accelerating); profit over the last 12 months grew +149.0%, against +59.2% a year (accelerating). This company reports in South African rand, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (ZAR); nothing is converted. ## How much of its sales does DRDGOLD Limited keep? DRDGOLD Limited's operating margin was 54.9% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 14.5 percentage points higher than the same quarter a year ago. Its latest full-year margin is the highest it has ever reported. Over the last four quarters it has moved +27.4 percentage points. Across 6 years it has been between 22.9% and 51.0%. The latest quarter is above every full year in that period. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +27.4 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +25.3 points. So the gain came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. When margins are at a record, every ratio built on profit looks better than usual, so watch whether they hold. ## Is DRDGOLD Limited's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 141% of DRDGOLD Limited's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY26 it brought in ZAR 5.7 B of operating cash against ZAR 4.3 B of profit. After ZAR 3.5 B of spending on assets, ZAR 2.1 B was left over as free cash. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason. What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building. This company reports in South African rand, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (ZAR); nothing is converted. ## Where does DRDGOLD Limited's cash go? DRDGOLD Limited does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent ZAR 8.8 B on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 26.2% of FY26 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: ZAR 8.8 B over the last 3 years. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. This company reports in South African rand, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (ZAR); nothing is converted. ## What is DRDGOLD Limited's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? DRDGOLD Limited's P/E is 0.8×, with too little history to compare. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. In short: there is too little history to say whether the multiple is high or low for this company, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the DRDGOLD Limited business getting better or worse? DRDGOLD Limited's business is growing steadily. Revenue and profit growth have stayed positive throughout, and ROCE is steady at 68.7%. This is based on 12 quarters of 3 measures, with some gaps. Why it matters: steady growth with healthy returns is how a business compounds over time. This reading has some gaps: at least one line is short, or the return line is not the quarterly series, so treat it with a little more caution. ## How much does DRDGOLD Limited earn on its capital? DRDGOLD Limited earned a ROE of 33% in FY26. That is up from a low of 19% in FY24. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 34.4 percentage points above its cost of capital, so growth here adds value, not just size. It comes from a 38.1% net margin and 0.64× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY26): a 38.1% net margin × 0.64× asset turnover × 1.37× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 33.4% on equity. The margin does most of the work; borrowing plays a small part, so this return is earned, not borrowed. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 41.2% − 6.8% = +34.4 percentage points. The 6.8% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. A gap this wide means each dollar put back into the business creates more than a dollar of value. The 41.2% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY26 at 46.8%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does DRDGOLD Limited have too much debt? DRDGOLD Limited has total debt of ZAR 11.4 M against shareholder equity of ZAR 12.7 B as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.00× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.01 in FY21 to 0.00 in FY26. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. This company reports in South African rand, not US dollars, so the money charts are left out here. The figures in the text are in that currency (ZAR); nothing is converted. ## What is the DRDGOLD Limited shareholding pattern? We have no ownership or short-position figures for DRDGOLD Limited, so this section says so rather than fill the gap. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 4.9 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. ## How far is DRDGOLD Limited from balance-sheet trouble? For DRDGOLD Limited, the Z-score is 7.36. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is well clear of danger. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 7.36 is well clear of the danger zone, so the balance sheet is not the risk here. ## How does DRDGOLD Limited rank in its industry?

The score ranks a company within its industry: each measure is scored against the other members.
