Harmony Gold Mining (ISIN US4132163001) delivered headline earnings per share of ZAR 258 for fiscal 2026, an increase of 100 percent from the prior year. The JSE share was last quoted at ZAR 286.19 on October 5, 2026 at 5:44 p.m. CAT, down 0.34 percent.

According to Investing.com on September 28, 2026, the company also declared a record final dividend of ZAR 47 per share.

Fiscal 2026 results set a high bar

Harmony said it met gold production guidance for the 11th consecutive year. Gold output reached 1.43 million ounces, while copper production totaled 18,200 tonnes, with both figures at the upper end of the company guidance.

Investing.com reported that the average gold price received rose 46 percent to USD 3,800 per ounce in fiscal 2026. The all-in sustaining cost margin expanded to 42 percent from 31 percent a year earlier, showing that higher metal prices outpaced the increase in production costs.

Copper drives the investment phase

Management described fiscal 2027 as a deliberate investment year, with capital directed toward sustaining operations, brownfield projects and Eva Copper. Gold production guidance is 1.3 million to 1.4 million ounces, while CSA copper guidance is 28,000 to 30,000 tonnes.

The company is targeting CSA production of 40,000 tonnes by fiscal 2029. Eva Copper remains targeted for first production by the end of calendar 2028, subject to environmental approvals, with project capital guidance of USD 1.55 billion to USD 1.75 billion.

That growth agenda comes with a higher spending requirement. Fiscal 2027 planned capital includes USD 820 million for gold operations, USD 120 million for CSA and USD 650 million to USD 780 million for Eva Copper, according to Investing.com.

Consensus stays moderately positive

MarketBeat reported on September 30, 2026, that five analysts assigned Harmony a Moderate Buy consensus rating. Two analysts rated the stock Buy, one Strong Buy and two Hold.

The same MarketBeat report said the company declared a USD 0.4611 dividend for payment on October 19, 2026, with October 9, 2026 as the record date. The upcoming payment provides a dated shareholder-return event while Harmony moves into a capital-intensive operating period.
