Jubilee shares surge on robust platinum group metals production

Published 16/04/2025, 09:12

Investing.com – Jubilee Metals Group PLC (LON:JLP) shares climbed 8.4% after the company reported its third-quarter financial year 2025 results, highlighting a significant rise in platinum group metals (PGM) production that exceeded market expectations and boosted investor sentiment.

Key production figures released by Jubilee highlighted a 34% year-on-year (YoY) increase in PGM 6E production, reaching 11.2kt, which was 24% higher than the 9.0kt projected by RBC Capital Markets.

This substantial growth in PGM output, coupled with a revised upward production guidance to 38koz from the previous 36koz, has outpaced RBC’s estimate by 6%.

The company’s success in PGM production was further bolstered by a recent partnership agreement aimed at processing surplus PGM material, suggesting potential for additional volume increases.

However, the third-quarter report was not without its drawbacks. Chrome production fell short of expectations, coming in at 452.6kt, which is 9% below RBC’s estimate and represents a 13% quarter-on-quarter decline.

Despite this, the company has raised its FY25 chrome production guidance to 1.85mt, aligning with prior expectations that production would surpass the initial 1.65mt target. This adjustment still falls 7% short of RBC’s anticipated 1.98mt.

RBC rated Jubilee as Outperform with a price target of 7.60 per share.
