Executive summary

  • Achieved record financial performance in 2025, with gold production exceeding guidance and silver in line with expectations, driven by strong cost control, operational discipline, and high precious metals prices.

  • Completed the acquisition of Probe Gold in Canada, adding approximately 10 million ounces of gold resources and expanding the exploration and project pipeline.

  • Returned a record $950 million to shareholders in dividends, representing 69% of earnings, well above the stated dividend policy.

  • Maintained a strong balance sheet and significant free cash flow, enabling flexibility for future investments and shareholder returns.

  • Captured $46 million in cost savings during the year.

Financial highlights

  • Revenue and profitability reached record highs, with revenue up 30.5% to $4,561.2M and margins up sharply year-over-year due to higher gold and silver prices.

  • Gross profit increased by 114% to $2,664.1M, operating profit by 142% to $2,292.5M, profit for the period by almost 600%, and EBITDA by 80.7% to $2,796.2M.

  • Adjusted EPS surged 465.4% to $2.06 per share; cash and cash equivalents at year-end were $2,756.5M, up 112.4%.

  • Cash flow from operations was $2.8 billion, up 80% year-over-year, resulting in a record year-end cash balance of $2.76 billion.

  • Exploration expenses were $174 million, 6% higher than last year but below budget; exploration spend increased to $176.1M, with 800,434m drilled (+7.7% YoY).

Outlook and guidance

  • 2026 is expected to be a transition year, with lower silver production due to mine sequencing and shaft connections, but production is expected to increase in 2027 and 2028.

  • Gold production in 2026 will be supported by brownfield projects (Valles, Noche Buena) and higher output from Herradura in subsequent years.

  • CapEx for 2026 is guided at $765 million, with lower CapEx expected in 2027 and 2028 as major projects are completed.

  • Sustaining CapEx is expected to normalize around $500–$600 million per year, with temporary increases due to new projects.

  • Exploration budget for 2026 is $308 million, with a shift toward advanced and greenfield projects.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
