Higher Prices, Production Send Royal Gold Shares Up

RGLD acquires and manages precious metal streams, royalties, and other mining interests, with gold as the company’s primary focus, though it deals in other metals too. RGLD’s second-quarter fiscal 2026 report showed total revenue of $450.5 million (a 114.9% year-over-year gain) led by higher metal prices and production expansion, adjusted net income of $218.2 million or $2.56 per share (a 41.4% lift), record operating cash flow of $335.2 million (a 119.4% jump), and $70.3 million returned to shareholders via dividends and repurchases.

No wonder RGLD shares are up 20% this year – and they could rise more. MoneyFlows data shows how Big Money investors are again betting heavily on the stock.
