AI Summary

6.0
Neutral

DRDGOLD is evolving from a leveraged gold-price trade into a self-funded tailings-infrastructure platform, offering potential long-term cost and capacity gains, but investors should wait for evidence that Vision 2028 capex converts into lower unit costs before relying on today's gold-supported earnings and dividend.
