Net income reached USD 9.7 million, up from USD 5.4 million in the previous period, representing 79.6% year-on-year growth.

Company Outlook

The company stated that the centralised PGM filtration plant is on track for completion in Q2 FY2026, with the upgrade expected to reduce transport costs and potentially enhance revenue quality by shifting to dried concentrate.

Management reported that the withdrawal of the labour consultation process at Lesedi, driven by improved feedstock supply, removes an operational overhang and secures the plant’s future production continuity.

The company is trialing new flotation configurations and reviewing optimization at Lannex to enhance PGM recovery, and initiatives to assess technologies for reducing mass pull could yield future cost savings while maintaining recovery.
