Harmony Gold
https://seekingalpha.com/article/...rmony-gold-strong-start-to-fy2021
Summary
Harmony Gold is down more than 45% from its 2020 highs, and is one of the worst-performing gold producers since the August peak.
Fundamentally, the company is in the best shape it's been in years with rising production and a return to profitability thanks to a sharp increase in the price of gold.
Based on FY2021 annual EPS estimates of $0.80, the company is trading at just 5.5x earnings, one of the lowest earnings multiples in the sector currently.
Given the discounted valuation which offsets the high costs and jurisdictional risk, I continue to see the stock as a Speculative Buy if it dips below $4.25.
Harmony is a very high-cost producer, and it's operating out of the least desirable jurisdictions globally, with most of its production from South Africa. However, the game-changer for the company is the higher gold price it's enjoying, which has provided a significant boost to margins. While Harmony is a $1,300/oz~ producer on an all-in sustaining cost basis, a gold price above $1,700/oz has allowed the company to start enjoying 20% plus margins vs. negligible margins previously.
Zu guten Zeiten war ich mit der Aktie 100% im Plus. Jetzt nur noch knapp zweistellig im Plus .... Hätte ich mal verkauf letztes Jahr ... :-|
Nur ein Fünftel des Buchwertes derzeit....

Innerhalb eines Jahres sollte sich dies im Kurs widerspiegeln.

- Die Ratings weisen diverse Schwächen aus.
- Unter den Analystenschätzungen sind auch 2 Empfehlungen zum VERKAUF.
- Die Dividende wurden zwei Jahre lang komplett gestrichen und wird jetzt deutlich tiefer erwartet.
Positiv finde ich die stark gesunkene Nettoverschuldung und den erheblich steigenden Cashflow. Ich nehme diese Aktie mal auf die Watchlist und gucke sie mir übers Wochenende nochmal näher an.
Die Aktie hatte ich auf der Beobachtungsliste. Aber da die Prognosen für den operativen Gewinn (EBIT) fallen und die Marge relativ niedrig ist, habe ich den Wert nicht mehr verfolgt. Evtl. bin ich zu pessimistisch.

Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited (Harmony or the Company) is pleased to acknowledge the Queensland Government’s declaration today of the Eva Copper Mine Project (the Project) as a ‘Prescribed Project’, in recognition of its social and economic significance to the state’s North West region.
The announcement, made by the Minister for State Development and Infrastructure, the Honourable Grace Grace MP, will support the coordination of approval processes required for the Project.
The Project is located on the traditional lands of the Kalkadoon People, 75 kilometres north of Cloncurry and 95 kilometres north-east of Mount Isa. It is expected to generate up to 800 jobs during construction and approximately 450 jobs during operations. The Company is currently updating a feasibility study to underpin the proposed development of the Project.
Harmony’s Chief Executive Officer, Peter Steenkamp, said the recognition of Eva’s distinct strategic importance and potential to contribute to the economic development of Queensland’s North West supports Harmony’s confidence in the Project.
“We appreciate the support of the Queensland Government and all stakeholders who supported our application for ‘Prescribed Project’ status,” Mr Steenkamp said.
Since acquiring the Project in December 2022, Harmony is conducting a feasibility update and has identified opportunities to enhance the asset and its contribution to stakeholders. This includes the introduction of renewable power and an optimised design that could potentially deliver greater production volumes.

Johannesburg, 4 April 2024. Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited (“Harmony” and/or “the Company”) has concluded a landmark five-year wage agreement (“the Agreement”) in respect of increases to wages and other conditions of service with its five labour unions, being the Coalition (comprising the NUM, UASA and Solidarity), AMCU, and NUMSA. The agreement is for the period 1 July 2024 to 30 June 2029 and will take effect on 1 July 2024.
Harmony CEO Peter Steenkamp noted: “For the first time in our 73-year history, we have concluded a five-year wage agreement with all of our labour unions. This is testimony to the strength of our labour relations and ensures stability and continued certainty on our fixed labour costs for the next five years.
“This milestone agreement has been reached three months before the existing agreement’s expiry. It is fair and balanced, considering the impact that increases in the cost of living are likely to have on employees over the next five years. We are pleased that the wage negotiations were carried out in good faith and commend all parties for demonstrating good leadership by engaging constructively. Our people are our top priority, and I thank everyone involved in making this possible.”
Details of the agreement:
The agreement allows for the following increases to monthly wages:
Category 4 – 8 employees will receive a wage increase of R1 200 in year 1; R1 250 in year 2; R1 300 in year 3; R1 450 in year 4; and R1 500 in year 5.
B-lower employees will receive a wage increase of R1 200 or 6.2% (whichever is greater) in year 1; R1 250 or 6.2% or CPI (whichever is greater) in year 2; R1 300 or 6.2% or CPI (whichever is greater) in year 3; R1 450 or 6.35% or CPI (whichever is greater) in year 4; and R1 500 or 6.5% or CPI (whichever is greater) in year 5.
Miners, Artisans and Officials will receive a wage increase of 6.2% in year 1; 6.2% or CPI (whichever is greater) in year 2; 6.2% or CPI (whichever is greater) in year 3; 6.35% or CPI (whichever is greater) in year 4; and 6.5% or CPI (whichever is greater) in year 5.
In addition to the basic wage increases, the parties agreed to the following:
The current monthly housing allowance will increase as follows:
Year 1: R3 360
Year 2: R3 480
Year 3: R3 660
Year 4: R3 840
Year 5: R4 020
The current monthly living-out allowance will increase by as follows:
Year 1: R100 to R2 800
Year 2: R100 to R2 900
Year 3: R150 to R3 050
Year 4: R150 to R3 200
Year 5: R150 to R3 350
Employees not making use of available company provided accommodation are eligible for either a housing allowance or a living-out allowance, but not both.
A number of non-wage related and process issues have been agreed to, including increasing the current guaranteed minimum severance and medical incapacity payments, medical aid co-contributory benefits, maternity and paternity leave.
This agreement will result in an increase of approximately 6% per annum over the five-year period which is within our planning parameters.
