The latest update is out from Drdgold ( (DRD) ).
On 18 December 2025, DRDGOLD announced that planned protected strike action at its Ergo Mining operations, called by the National Union of Mineworkers and the Association of Mineworkers and Construction Union, was suspended before it could begin with the morning shift that day. Although the wage and profit-share dispute that triggered the strike notice remains unresolved, the company stressed that its wage offer is above inflation, in line with recent gold-sector agreements and designed to preserve the long-term sustainability of the Ergo operations, noting that another union, the United Association of South Africa, accepted the deal on 12 December 2025 and that Ergo continues to operate without disruption while management seeks further engagement to avoid financial harm to employees and operational interruptions.
The most recent analyst rating on (DRD) stock is a Buy with a $33.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Drdgold stock, see the DRD Stock Forecast page.
Spark’s Take on DRD Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, DRD is a Outperform.
Drdgold’s strong financial performance and positive technical indicators are the primary drivers of its overall score. The company shows robust revenue growth and profitability, supported by a solid balance sheet. Technical analysis indicates a strong upward trend, although caution is advised due to potential overbought conditions. The valuation is fair but not particularly compelling. The lack of earnings call and corporate events data does not impact the score.
