Royal Gold Shares Shining

RGLD is a metals company focused on acquiring and managing precious metal streams, royalties, and other interests in mining operations. The company deals primarily in gold, but other metals too. Royal invests in mining assets, provides liquidity for miners, and funds merger and acquisition activity. This setup allows RGLD to take advantage of rising metals prices without the typical risks of operating costs and capital spending associated with miners.

The company’s fourth-quarter fiscal 2024 earnings report showed a 19% gain in annual revenue, to $719 million, and adjusted per-share earnings of $5.26. Quarterly revenue hit $203 million, which is a record for the company. RGLD’s quarterly net income was $107 million, or $1.63 per share, which is a 71% jump on a year-over-year basis. The company has no debt and more than $1 billion available in revolving credit. Also, RGLD paid over $105 million in dividends and bumped its annual dividend to $1.80 per share for 2025.

It’s no wonder RGLD shares are up 25% this year – and they could rise more. MAPsignals data shows how Big Money investors are betting heavily on the forward picture of the stock.
