Gemfields' emerald auction sells out at $29.6M, but shares drop 13% despite broker's buy rating.

Gemfields Group Limited held its first commercial-quality emerald auction since December 2025, selling all 44 lots totaling over three million carats for $29.6 million. This auction achieved the highest average price per carat observed since the mine began, at $9.72, though quality differences make direct comparisons difficult. Despite the strong auction results, Gemfields' share price fell 13% to 2.51p. Broker Panmure Liberum maintained a 'buy' rating and a 7.5p price target, slightly raising its 2026 emerald revenue forecast to $29.6 million but keeping EBITDA estimates nearly unchanged. Positive customer feedback and high viewing activity support the outlook, with upcoming interim results and a ruby auction expected soon.
