Gold prices and production drive profits, AngloGold's annual profit surges by 186%
Show original
⑴ AngloGold Ashanti announced its full-year 2025 results on Friday, with overall profits reaching $2.725 billion, a sharp increase of 186% compared to $954 million in the previous year. This explosive growth was mainly driven by the dual factors of record-high gold prices and increased production. ⑵ Significant breakthroughs were achieved on the production side. The company produced 3.1 million ounces of gold throughout the year, up 16% year-on-year. The main driver of this increase was the first full-year contribution from the Sukari mine in Egypt, after the company acquired a 50% stake in the mine in 2024 and gradually ramped up capacity. ⑶ The contribution from the price side was even more prominent. The average gold price obtained by the company was 45% higher than the previous year, further amplifying profit elasticity on the basis of increased production. Persistently high gold prices have directly translated into the mining company’s profitability. ⑷ Shareholder returns have also increased accordingly. The company announced a quarterly dividend of $1.73 per share, bringing the total dividend payout for 2025 to $1.8 billion. Against the backdrop of significantly improved profits, cash flow distribution has tilted in favor of shareholders. ⑸ AngloGold’s performance provides a benchmark for the gold mining sector. With the gold price center moving higher and some mining companies expanding production, the industry’s overall profitability is expected to undergo a structural revaluation.
