FTSE 250 movers: Pan African shines on results
(Sharecast News) - FTSE 250 (MCX) 23,645.56 0.38%
First-half profits at Pan African Resources more than trebled to a record high, the gold miner announced on Wednesday, as both production volumes and the gold price jumped more than 50% year on year.
Profits for the six months ended 31 December were 211.9% higher than the year before at $147.8m, while earnings per share increased by 511.7% to US 7.34 cents per share.
Revenues surged 157.3% to $487.1m, helped by a 61.6% increase in the gold price to $3,812/oz, and a 51.5% jump in gold output to 128,296oz.
"The half-year results demonstrate the success of our strategy of focusing on high-margin, long-life tailings retreatment operations and also the acquisition of the very prospective Tenant Mines in Australia," said chief executive officer, Cobus Loots.
