What did Greatland Resources report?

  • Revenue from ordinary activities surged to $977.3 million, up 5,797% from $16.6 million a year earlier
  • Net profit after tax rose to $342.9 million, an 876% increase from $35.1 million in the previous corresponding period

  • Free cash flow grew to $387.4 million (compared to a $280.9 million outflow last year)

What else do investors need to know?

Greatland completed its first full reporting period with 100% ownership of the Telfer gold-copper mine, which produced 167,163 ounces of gold and 6,894 tonnes of copper at an all-in sustaining cost of $2,176/oz. Operational improvements included upgrades to processing facilities, grade control systems, and open pit fleet renewals to lift productivity and safety metrics.

The company continued investment in growth, spending $177 million during the half, split across expansion at Telfer, feasibility work and early works at the world-class Havieron gold-copper development project, and resource drilling. The Havieron Feasibility Study, completed in December 2025, confirmed a clear path to a long-life, low-cost operation leveraging Telfer's infrastructure.

Greatland advanced regional exploration, including new drilling at the Paterson South project, where it formed a joint venture with Rio Tinto Exploration. The company also secured binding commitments for $500 million in new corporate debt facilities to support project development and working capital.

What's next for Greatland Resources?

Looking ahead, Greatland aims to maintain strong production at Telfer while progressing the Havieron mine towards development. The company is targeting environmental approvals and a final investment decision on Havieron in FY26, with first gold expected about 2.5 years post-approval.

Greatland plans to integrate low-grade stockpiles into mine schedules, continue the open pit fleet renewal, and advance resource drilling. The new debt facilities, alongside robust cash flows, are expected to provide ample funding flexibility for both Telfer's ongoing needs and the upcoming Havieron build.
