Fiscal Year 2025

Q4 and full-year 2025 saw record gold production and earnings, driven by higher prices and the new hard rock plant. The acquisition of Casa Berardi transforms the company into a diversified mid-tier producer, with 2026 guidance forecasting strong production growth and free cash flow.
-
Q3 2025 saw lower gold production due to weather, but strong financials and liquidity were maintained. Hard rock expansion is on track, with first gold expected in December and a major production increase in 2026. AISC guidance was raised due to higher royalties and FX impacts.
