Guidance Holds, Costs Stay Elevated
Payable gold production reached 814,012 ounces in the quarter. Management continues to expect 2026 production near the lower end of its 3.3 million-to-3.5 million-ounce range, reflecting the adjusted Barnat open-pit plan at Canadian Malartic.
Total cash costs were 1,133 US dollars per ounce and all-in sustaining costs were 1,648 US dollars per ounce in the quarter. For the full year, both measures are expected near the upper end of their respective guidance ranges, with diesel and other input costs weighing on margins.
Projects Set the Next Catalyst
Agnico Eagle is advancing Odyssey, Detour Lake underground, Upper Beaver and Hope Bay. At Odyssey, shaft-hoisted production remains scheduled for the second quarter of 2027. The company is targeting a 20 percent to 30 percent increase in annual gold production over the next decade, with potential output above 4.0 million ounces in the early 2030s.
Management expects to return more than 50 percent of 2026 free cash flow to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases, subject to operational needs and gold prices. Further project details are expected at the Capital Markets Day on November 18.
