Our model rates IAG Strong (85/100) on growth, profitability, financial health, and valuation. The summary below is built from its filed financials and current ratios and refreshes automatically.
Economic Moat
Evidence of durable competitive advantage in the filed financials (10 years of history).
Profit margins and economic moats, explainedThe numbers don't show a durable competitive advantage — margins, growth, or returns on capital have been unstable or thin. Great returns are still possible; they just aren't protected.
29.5% average over the last 3 years
±11.1 pts around 17.4% across 10 years
grew in 7 of the last 9 year-over-year periods
positive in 5 of 10 years
18.0% latest fiscal year
A moat can't be proven by numbers alone — this scores the evidence a durable advantage leaves behind (pricing power, consistency, returns on capital), computed the same way for every stock. Pair it with the business overview before concluding anything.
Technical Analysis (Educational)
Technical analysis reads price and volume to judge momentum and timing. It complements the fundamentals above — it does not replace them. Here is what IAG's chart says today, with each tool explained.
Trend — moving averages. A moving average is the average closing price over a window, which smooths out daily noise. IAG trades near $17.91, above its 50-day average ($16.89) and 200-day average ($16.81). Price above both averages, with the shorter one above the longer, is the textbook definition of an uptrend — momentum favours buyers.
Momentum — RSI. The Relative Strength Index runs 0–100 and measures how strong recent gains are versus losses. Above 70 is "overbought", below 30 "oversold". At 48 it is in neutral territory — neither stretched nor washed out.
MACD. MACD compares two moving averages to flag shifts in momentum. Its histogram is currently positive — short-term momentum is improving.
Volatility — ATR. Average True Range is the typical daily move. IAG's is $0.97 (~5.4% of price), so swings of about that size each day are normal — handy for setting a stop that isn't too tight.
Support & resistance. In the month to Jul 6, 2026, IAG found buyers near $14.70 (support) and sellers near $18.92 (resistance); its 52-week range then was $6.69–$24.87. A decisive break beyond either edge often marks the next move.
Volume. The latest session traded 0.4× the 20-day average — lighter than usual, so the move carries less conviction. Rising volume on up-days suggests real buying; on down-days, real selling.

EV / EBITDA
—
IAG trades at 9.9x trailing earnings (about 8.1x on estimated forward earnings), 3.5x sales, and 0.9x book value. Reverse-engineering today's price implies the market expects roughly 0.7% long-term free-cash-flow growth. That is an undemanding multiple — potentially cheap if the business is stable.

Educational scenario model, not a forecast or investment advice. It starts from the latest annual revenue in SEC filings. By default, growth is trailing revenue growth (held between 3% and 45% a year), the net margin is the latest one (held between 3% and 50%, so a loss-making company is modeled with a small profit), and the Base case P/E runs from 60% to 100% of today's. Carrying recent growth forward five years can miss badly in either direction. Outputs are only as good as the assumptions.
Bull Case
The case for IAG:
- Revenue is growing 92.3% a year, a sign of real demand.
- High net margins (29.5%) point to pricing power or efficiency.
- Strong return on equity (25.9%) shows capital is put to work well.
- Healthy free-cash-flow yield (~5.8%) funds buybacks and dividends.
- A conservative balance sheet (debt/equity 0.3x) lowers risk.
- Our model's overall read is Strong (85/100).
Bear Case
The case against IAG:
- Like any single stock, it is exposed to competition, the economic cycle, and shifts in its end markets.
Key Risks
Market risk — sector rotation, the economic cycle, and broad sentiment move the stock regardless of fundamentals.
Investment Thesis
On balance, the fundamentals screen favourably: IAMGOLD Corp is a large-cap materials business still growing nicely, with solid profitability, and a sound balance sheet. It trades at 9.9x earnings, which our model scores Strong (85/100). Weigh this against your own goals and time horizon — this is educational information, not a recommendation.

Live price data plus real fundamentals and 5-year financials pulled directly from IAMGOLD Corp's SEC filings — refreshed automatically, not hand-entered.
How is the 5-year projection for IAG calculated?
It's a scenario model. It starts from the latest annual revenue and net margin in SEC filings, grows revenue at an assumed rate (trailing revenue growth by default), and applies a P/E range built around today's multiple to show the resulting share-price range. When a stock has no growth or P/E data, the starting values are placeholders. It's a tool for thinking, not a prediction.
