Ramelius Resources Ltd (ASX: RMS)
The Ramelius Resources share price is up almost 4% to $2.47.
This morning, this ASX 200 gold stock revealed that it had a very strong finish to the financial year. So much so, its quarterly gold production of 73,454 ounces came in ahead of its upgraded guidance range of 62,000 ounces to 72,000 ounces.
This means that its full year gold production was 301,664 ounces, which outperformed its upgraded guidance of 290,000 ounces to 300,000 ounces.
Another positive is that given the outstanding production performance, the miner expects its full year all-in sustaining costs (AISC) to be at the lower end of its upgraded guidance range of A$1,550 per ounce to A$1,650 per ounce.
Management notes that this is the fifth consecutive year of achieving both gold production and AISC guidance.
And thanks to a sky high gold price, the miner revealed that its quarterly underlying free cash flow was $207.8 million. This took its full year underlying free cash flow to $694.9 million for FY 2025, which is more than double what was achieved in FY 2024.
At the end of the period, the ASX 200 gold stock had a cash and gold balance of $809.7 million.
Commenting on the company's performance, Ramelius' managing director, Mark Zeptner, said:
Today, I am proud to announce the operations team has done it again, our second consecutive year of record gold production and cash generation, as we cracked the 300,000 ounce mark for the first time. Just as importantly, we have achieved our fifth straight year of meeting or exceeding both production and cost guidance. This is, and will continue to be, a core value of Ramelius.
Regis Resources Ltd (ASX: RRL)
The Regis Resources share price is down 3.5% to $4.30 on Monday after the gold miner released an update on its performance in FY 2025.
According to the release, total gold production for the fourth quarter was 87,400 ounces. This took its total FY 2025 gold production to 373,000 ounces. This comprises 233,000 ounces from Duketon and 140,000 ounces from Tropicana.
The good news is that this means that the ASX 200 gold stock's production was at the high end of its guidance range of 350,000 ounces to 380,000 ounces for FY 2025.
Commenting on the company's performance, Regis Resources' managing director and CEO, Jim Beyer, said:
The team has done an excellent job executing to plan while also identifying and producing additional opportunistic ounces. With gold prices expected to remain strong, we see this trend continuing.
The ASX 200 gold stock also revealed that its cash and bullion build was $150 million for the quarter. This means it ended the financial year with total cash and bullion of $517 million.
Overall, a strong year for Regis Resources but possibly a touch short of what the market was expecting.
