Executive Summary

Eldorado Gold reported Q1 2026 results with revenue of $532.4 million (+50% YoY) driven by a 67% surge in the average realized gold price to $4,891/oz, despite a 13% decline in gold production to 100,358 oz. Net earnings attributable to shareholders rose to $136.4 million ($0.69/share) from $72.0 million ($0.35/share) a year ago, while adjusted net earnings hit $188.2 million ($0.95/share). The company maintained its 2026 gold production guidance of 490,000-590,000 oz and confirmed Skouries remains on track for first concentrate in Q3 and commercial production in Q4 2026. The post-period acquisition of Foran Mining adds the McIlvenna Bay copper-zinc project, expected to reach commercial production in Q3 2026.

Actionable Insight

Strong Q1 beat on gold price tailwind with maintained full-year guidance supports positive momentum. Key catalysts ahead: Skouries first concentrate in Q3 and commercial production in Q4, plus McIlvenna Bay ramp-up. Watch for Q2 production ramp and any further Skouries cost overruns. The CEO transition to Milau in Q3 adds execution risk during Skouries ramp-up.
