With the price of its favorite precious metal declining, Eldorado Gold (EGO +2.32%) stock has taken it on the chin over the past few trading days. According to data compiled by S&P Global Market Intelligence, the mining company's shares were down almost 13% week to date as of early Friday morning.

Tarnished metal Gold is currently on a losing streak due to several factors. Chief among these is the growing expectation from analysts and economists that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will raise interest rates in the coming months. After all, inflation is still a problem -- not least because of the economic fallout of the war with Iran -- and the primary remedy for a central bank is higher rates.

As rates rise, the attractiveness of non-yielding assets such as gold declines, which in turn helps fuel the sell-offs we've seen over the past few days. Compounding that, as the temperature seems to be cooling in the U.S.-Iran negotiations to end the conflict, many investors consider precious metals less appealing as safe-haven plays.

Another factor was that the gold price dipped below $4,000 per ounce on Wednesday, to its lowest level since late last year. Market players can get spooked when an asset dips below a certain price; although the actual decline might not be dramatic, it often serves as a reminder that the investment is stumbling.

Late-week bounce As of this writing, gold had bounced above the $4,000 line near the end of the week, and Eldorado bounced along with it.

I'm not convinced that this bear run in the precious metal is over, however, as I feel we haven't seen the last of discouraging developments on inflation, and the war seems to be lurching toward a conclusion. I'd remain wary of precious metals like gold and the mining companies that specialize in it, like Eldorado.

Despite negative FCF due to Skouries construction, EGO maintains a manageable debt profile and industry-aligned valuation metrics, positioning for improved cash flow post-projects.

On June 15, 2026, Eldorado Gold Corp EGO shares rose 10.1%, bringing the current price to $33.76. This movement marks a significant rebound compared to the stock's 52-week range of $19.56 to $51.16.

GF Value™ verdict: Currently priced at $33.76, EGO is estimated to be 3.1% overvalued compared to its GF Value™ of $32.75.GF Score™: EGO has a strong GF Score™ of 86/100, indicating solid fundamentals and growth potential.Most notable signal: There have been no insider transactions in the last 3 months, suggesting a lack of insider confidence in the current valuation. Is EGO Overvalued or Undervalued? The current market price of Eldorado Gold Corp EGO is $33.76, which is above its GF Value™ estimate of $32.75, indicating that the stock is currently 3.1% overvalued. This means that there is no margin of safety for potential investors, as the stock trades above its intrinsic value according to GuruFocus metrics. The GF Valuation label classifies EGO as fairly valued, but the slight overvaluation suggests a risk for investors considering entry points in the stock.

GF Value™ is GuruFocus' proprietary measure of intrinsic value, calculated from historical trading multiples, past business growth, and future performance estimates. Given the current price exceeds the GF Value™, investors may want to approach with caution, acknowledging the potential for price corrections in the near future.

How Does EGO's Valuation Compare to Its History? Metric Current Historical P/E (TTM) 12.1x 17.8x Forward P/E 8.0x N/A The current P/E (TTM) of 12.1x is significantly below its 5-year median P/E of 17.8x, suggesting that the stock is trading at a discount compared to its historical valuation. The forward P/E of 8.0x further indicates a potential for growth moving forward. This analysis aligns with the GF Value™ verdict of EGO being overvalued, as the lower P/E ratio may reflect investor sentiment and market conditions that could pose risks despite its strong growth outlook.

What Does EGO's GF Score™ Tell Us? Metric Rating GF Score™ 86/100 Financial Strength 7/10 Profitability 7/10 Growth 10/10 Valuation 9/10 Momentum 3/10 The GF Score™ of 86/100 indicates that Eldorado Gold Corp possesses strong fundamentals, particularly in growth, where it achieved a perfect score of 10/10, suggesting robust future earnings potential. However, the momentum rank of 3/10 indicates that the stock may be experiencing weakness in its recent price performance compared to its historical trends. Overall, the scores reflect a mixed but generally positive outlook for EGO, with the growth potential being the standout feature while momentum presents as a concern.

What Are Insiders Doing with EGO Stock? Currently, there have been no insider transactions in the last 3 months for Eldorado Gold Corp. This lack of activity can suggest that insiders are either confident in the current valuation or uncertain about the direction of the stock price. In the absence of buying or selling, it is difficult to gauge the sentiment of those closest to the company regarding its future performance.

What This Means for Investors Based on the GF Value™ analysis, Eldorado Gold Corp EGO is currently overvalued with a price of $33.76 compared to a GF Value™ of $32.75. Potential investors should be cautious, given the lack of margin of safety and the risk of price corrections in the current market environment.

Eldorado Gold offers a compelling growth and value proposition, trading at a notable discount to peers despite imminent catalysts. Skouries mine is set for first production in Q3 2026, driving 40% output growth and significant copper exposure, further enhancing margins. EGO trades at under 8x 2026 earnings and below 5x 2027, with a strong balance sheet, new dividend, and active buybacks supporting capital returns.

Gold mining stocks were reaching for new heights in Q1 2026, but their quest got derailed as uncertainty arose about the outlook. The war in the Middle East can cause all sorts of problems for gold and gold miners, something likely to continue in Q2 2026. While an oil crisis is a short-term headwind for gold and gold miners, the long-term impact could be more positive for both.

Commentary

“As expected, first quarter gold production was aligned with our second half-weighted annual guidance, with 100,358 ounces produced,” said George Burns, Chief Executive Officer. “Continued strength in gold prices supported solid financial results during the quarter, reflecting disciplined operating performance and the quality of our asset base. During the quarter, we continued returning capital to shareholders through share buybacks and paid our first quarterly dividend, underscoring our commitment to sustainable shareholder returns.

During the quarter, construction at Skouries continued to advance and remains on track for first concentrate production in Q3 and commercial production in Q4. As execution activities have progressed and the project advances toward construction completion on schedule we have updated the forecast-to-complete and, as a result we have revised the estimate of total project capital to approximately $1.315 billion, an increase of approximately $155 million from the prior estimate. This reflects incremental costs related to labour, project and support overheads and materials across multiple work fronts and foreign exchange impacts. The primary driver of the increase is related to the contractor workforce levels to sustain execution momentum. We believe that advancing Skouries into safe production in the current metal price environment is a key driver of value creation, and this incremental capital reflects our continued focus on maintaining momentum toward first concentrate production.

We also received the Ormaque operating authorization, enhancing production flexibility at the Lamaque Complex by enabling ore from two mines to feed the mill. In addition, we strengthened our execution capabilities with the promotion of Simon Hille to Chief Operating Officer and the addition of Gordana Vicentijevic as Senior Vice President, Projects, reinforcing our focus on delivery certainty and long‑term value creation.

Subsequent to quarter end, we completed the acquisition of Foran, adding McIlvenna Bay to our portfolio, a high‑quality, multi‑decade Canadian copper‑zinc‑gold-silver asset to our portfolio. The project also offers significant exploration upside across a prospective district-scale land package, including near-mine targets such as the Tesla Zone. Since closing the acquisition, we have approved approximately $17 million of exploration spending in 2026, reflecting the highly target‑rich nature of the district and the potential to further extend mine life and support future growth. Collectively, these actions highlight our focus on execution and building a high-quality, long-life portfolio.”

Skouries Highlights

The Skouries Project, part of the Kassandra Mines Complex, is located within the Halkidiki Peninsula of Northern Greece and is a high-grade copper-gold project. In January 2022, Eldorado published the results of the Skouries Project Feasibility Study with a 20-year mine life and expected average annual production over the life of the mine of 140,000 ounces of gold and 67 million pounds of copper, or approximately 240,000 gold equivalent ounces(3).

First production of the copper-gold concentrate is expected in Q3 2026 and commercial production is expected in Q4 2026, with 2026 gold production projected to be between 60,000 and 100,000 ounces and copper production projected to be between 20 and 40 million pounds.

Concentrate Off-Take Agreements

Concentrate commercial terms remain agreed and final offtake contract negotiations are in progress. With robust market conditions for copper gold concentrates continuing in 2026, we remain confident of achieving significantly stronger terms than those assumed in the 2022 feasibility study assumptions.

Capital Estimate and Schedule

As execution activities have progressed and the project advances toward construction completion on schedule, the Company has updated its forecast-to-complete and, as a result has revised its estimate of total project capital for phase 2 to approximately $1.315 billion. This reflects an incremental $155 million related to labour, project and support overheads and materials costs across multiple work fronts and foreign exchange impacts. Additional contractor resources have been and continue to be required to sustain momentum. Since mid Q1 2026 when the onsite workforce totaled approximately 2,350 employees and contractors, workforce levels have increased to over 3,200 currently, including the addition of specialized EU‑based contractors. This expanded workforce has supported continued progress across critical work fronts. The total workforce is expected to remain above 3,200 throughout the second quarter of 2026, followed by a planned and significant reduction in onsite labour in the third quarter as construction is completed, contractors are demobilized, and staffing levels normalize to support steady-state operations as the project transitions from construction into operations.

The project remains fully funded through operating cash flow, cash and debt financing. The Term Facility totalling €680.4 million ($782.3 million) is fully drawn (and the Contingent Overrun Facility of €60.0 million remains undrawn).

Project capital totalled $135.6 million in Q1 2026 and as of March 31, 2026, cumulative project capital invested towards Phase 2 of construction totalled $1.116 billion.

The accelerated operational capital cost estimate for Skouries has increased to approximately $260 million, reflecting an incremental $82 million investment focused on expanded pre‑commercial underground and open‑pit mining. These activities are supporting continued growth of the ore stockpiles ahead of first production, further advancement of the underground mine and advancing the site general earthworks. This incremental capital supports a smooth ramp‑up into production.

The Company is well positioned for start‑up, with over 2.8 million tonnes of ore stockpiled which provides the entire planned mill tonnage for 2026. Open pit and underground ore mining will continue for the balance of 2026 and will be blended to maximize cash flow with lower value ore being stockpiled for future years.

Construction of the low-grade ore stockpile continued advancing with the planned sequence focused on the lower section.

Excavation of the southern diversion trench is ongoing and ramping up in the more favorable dry season.

Accelerated Operations and Readiness

Open Pit Mining

The open pit mine continued to ramp up during Q1 2026 and remains ahead of plan in building ore stockpiles for the process plant start-up. The open pit team delivered 877 kt of ore to stockpiles during Q1 2026. At the end of Q1 2026 the stockpiles contained approximately 2.3 million tonnes of open pit and underground ore. The stockpile metal content is approximately 84,000 ounces of gold and 24 million pounds of copper. Grade control drilling of the open pit phase 1 has been completed

Underground Development

The underground mine delivered 140 kt of ore to the ore stockpiles during Q1 2026. Underground access development rates continued to accelerate. A total of 1,333 meters of underground development was completed in Q1 2026. The monthly advance during March 2026 was 607 meters, a step up towards the approximate 700 meters per month we are targeting during the remaining months of the year. The underground ventilation system has been upgraded enabling ventilation of the 350 level where the remaining four test stopes will be mined this year.

The second test stope was completed with ore fragmentation, stope cavity monitoring and extraction exceeding expectations. Development of both the east and west declines continues, and development to access the next four test stopes started in Q2 2026.

Based on the successful completion of the first two test stopes, the Company has the opportunity to expand the stope design to support greater productivity, with the planned four larger test stopes designed at approximately 100 kt per stope

Processing

Three of the four processing operations and maintenance teams have successfully completed their theoretical training and are now completing job familiarization training at both Skouries and Olympias sites. The fourth team will commence theory training in Q2 2026.

Several key readiness activities are advancing according to plan. Procurement of maintenance spares is advancing on plan for completion in Q2, consignment stock agreements are in place with the main OEM’s and the tailings placement design has been completed.

Twelve highly experienced process plant ramp-up experts have been contracted to support the operations team during the first three months of operations.

Workforce

As at March 31, 2026, there were approximately 3,000 personnel working on site, including 450 Skouries employees.

The McIlvenna Bay Project, located in Saskatchewan, Canada, is a copper-zinc-gold-silver rich development project added on April 14, 2026, with the acquisition of Foran. In March 2025, Foran published a McIlvenna Bay Project Feasibility Study, with an 18 year mine life and average life of mine production of 41 million pounds of copper, 20,000 ounces of gold, 444,000 ounces of silver and 54 million pounds of zinc.

The mine is expected to have a long life and is supported by a robust resource base, with highly prospective exploration upside across the broader district, including the nearby Tesla Zone. McIlvenna Bay is nearing first production and is expected to achieve commercial production in Q3 2026.

Located in one of the world’s most attractive mining jurisdictions, the project benefits from excellent infrastructure and is designated by the Government of Canada as a project of national significance to support critical mineral development. McIlvenna Bay is expected to enhance Eldorado’s production profile, increase exposure to copper, and contribute to long-term cash flow generation.

Following the close of the acquisition the Company is currently working to fully integrate McIlvenna Bay. Updated production and cost guidance, including timing related to potential expansion studies and an evaluation of the potential addition of a silver-lead circuit, will be provided in conjunction with the Company’s Q2 2026 Operational and Financial Update.

(3) Includes costs allocated to by-products.
(4) 2025 amounts presented are from continuing operations only and exclude the Romania segment.  Gold production in Q1 2026 totalled 100,358 ounces of gold, a 13% decrease from Q1 2025 production of 115,893 ounces. This primarily reflected decreases at Kisladag due to the planned lower tonnes and ore grade stacked, and decreases at Efemcukuru due to lower ore grade, partially offset by an increase at Olympias and Lamaque due to higher grade and recoveries.

Gold sales in Q1 2026 totalled 100,619 ounces, a 13% decrease from 116,263 ounces sold in Q1 2025 due to the impact of lower production in Q1 2026.

The average realized gold price(4) was $4,891 per ounce sold in Q1 2026, an increase of 67% from $2,933 per ounce sold in Q1 2025. As a result, total revenue was $532.4 million in Q1 2026, an increase of 50% from total revenue of $355.2 million in Q1 2025.

Production costs increased to $188.2 million in Q1 2026 from $148.3 million in Q1 2025 mainly due to an increase in royalties in Turkiye and Greece, which accounted for approximately 70% of the increase to production costs. The remainder relates primarily to increases in labour costs, due to cost inflation in Turkiye, higher volumes produced at Lamaque and Olympias, and additional costs incurred in labour and contractors due to deepening the production centre of the Triangle Mine at Lamaque. Production costs include royalty expense, which increased to $50.1 million in Q1 2026 from $22.2 million in Q1 2025 due to higher average realized gold prices and higher royalty rates, partially offset by lower sales volumes. In Turkiye, royalties are paid on revenue less certain costs associated with ore haulage, mineral processing and related depreciation, and are calculated on the basis of a sliding scale according to the average London Metal Exchange gold price during the calendar year. Effective July 24, 2025, amendments to Turkish Mining Law were enacted, which included changes to the base rate table for state royalties on gold metal sales. The price-linked sliding scale of royalty rates has broadened with increasing rate bands, with the highest band at a maximum gold price of $5,101/oz, an expansion from the previous maximum of $2,101/oz. In Greece, royalties are paid on revenue and calculated on a sliding scale tied to international gold and base metal prices and the EUR/USD exchange rate.

Total cash costs(5) in Q1 2026 averaged $1,470 per ounce sold, an increase from $1,153 per ounce sold in Q1 2025, primarily due to higher royalty expense driven by higher gold prices, lower volumes sold, as well as impacts from labour. AISC per ounce sold(5) increased to $1,942 in Q1 2026 from $1,559 in Q1 2025, mainly due to higher total cash costs per ounce sold in Q1 2026.

The Company reported net earnings attributable to shareholders from continuing operations of $136.4 million ($0.69 basic earnings per share) in Q1 2026, compared to net earnings of $72.0 million ($0.35 basic earnings per share) in Q1 2025. Higher net earnings in Q1 2026 is primarily attributable to higher average realized gold prices, partially offset by lower volumes sold, higher production costs and higher income tax expense.

Adjusted net earnings(5) was $188.2 million ($0.95 basic earnings per share) in Q1 2026, compared to adjusted net earnings of $56.4 million ($0.28 basic earnings per share) in Q1 2025. Adjustments of non-recurring items in Q1 2026 include removing an $18.3 million loss on foreign exchange translation of deferred tax balances, a $20.0 million unrealized loss on derivative instruments, and a $7.7 million expense relating to acquisition costs.

(2) These financial measures or ratios are non-IFRS financial measures or ratios. See the section 'Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures and Ratios' of our MD&A for explanations and discussions of these non-IFRS financial measures or ratios.  Kisladag

Kisladag produced 28,339 ounces of gold in Q1 2026, a 36% decrease from 44,319 ounces in Q1 2025. The decrease was due to the planned lower tonnes and ore grade stacked in the first quarter, in addition to the accelerated waste removal from phase 6 and the western area which is underway. The average grade of tonnes placed decreased to 0.44 grams per tonne in Q1 2026 from 0.79 grams per tonne in Q1 2025.

Revenue increased to $145.7 million in Q1 2026 from $129.2 million in Q1 2025, driven by the higher average realized gold price, partially offset by lower gold ounces sold.

Production costs increased to $56.7 million in Q1 2026 from $47.5 million in Q1 2025, driven by higher royalty rates as a result of higher realized gold prices, partially offset by lower ounces sold. On a per ounce sold basis, higher production costs and lower ounces produced resulted in total cash costs per ounce sold increasing to $1,896 in Q1 2026 from $1,039 in Q1 2025.

AISC per ounce sold increased to $2,060 in Q1 2026 from $1,138 in Q1 2025, primarily due to higher total cash costs per ounce sold and higher sustaining capital expenditures.

Sustaining capital expenditures of $3.5 million in Q1 2026 primarily included equipment rebuilds and geometallurgical drilling. Growth capital investment of $51.3 million in Q1 2026 includes multiple purchases of land totalling $23.9 million required for the construction of the North Heap Leach Pad ("NHLP") and North Rock Dump, with the balance of $27.4 million related primarily to waste stripping and associated equipment costs as well as continued construction of the NHLP Phase 3.

The geometallurgical study, characterizing future mining phases and evaluating the benefit of additional screening for the high pressure grinding rolls and whole ore agglomeration, is expected to be complete in Q2 2026.

The higher metal price environment has created a significant opportunity for the Kisladag open pit, to allow us to evaluate the opportunity to move from a $1,700 to a $2,100 pit shell, which is expected to open up the western area of the pit and support resource expansion. To facilitate this opportunity and assist in resolving ongoing geotechnical challenges in the open pit, we expect to increase waste stripping in 2026 by six to eight million tonnes. The mine optimization plan is expected to be beneficial in the long-term by improved balancing of ore and waste movement and supporting consistent year-over-year performance.

For 2026, production guidance at Kisladag is 105,000 to 130,000 ounces of gold. Production is expected to decrease in the second quarter as a result of an extended 14-day planned shutdown for roll replacement and installation of the secondary crushing screen.

Lamaque

Lamaque produced 42,306 ounces of gold in Q1 2026, a 5% increase from 40,438 ounces in Q1 2025 primarily driven by higher grade ore, which includes the positive impact of Ormaque ore following receipt of the operating authorization in March, partially offset by lower throughput. Average grade increased to 6.20 grams per tonne in Q1 2026 from 5.38 grams per tonne in Q1 2025.

Revenue increased to $219.6 million in Q1 2026 from $122.0 million in Q1 2025 primarily due to the higher average realized gold price combined with an increase in gold ounces sold during the quarter.

Production costs increased to $41.8 million in Q1 2026 from $35.7 million in Q1 2025, reflecting higher costs and higher volume sold. As the centre of production at the Triangle Mine deepens, additional costs are incurred for haulage, equipment and personnel requirements. Total cash costs per ounce sold increased to $904 in Q1 2026 from $836 in Q1 2025 primarily due to higher costs, including mining costs for Ormaque as well as higher royalties due to the higher realized average gold price, partially offset by higher ounces sold.

AISC per ounce sold decreased to $1,370 in Q1 2026 from $1,392 in Q1 2025, primarily due to modestly lower sustaining capital and higher volumes sold, partially offset by the increase in total cash costs per ounce sold.

Sustaining capital expenditures of $20.2 million in Q1 2026 primarily related to underground development, delineation drilling, equipment rebuilds and purchases. Growth capital investment of $27.8 million in Q1 2026 primarily related to Ormaque development, construction of the north basin water management structure, construction of the paste plant, and ramp development at the Triangle Mine.

In 2026, production guidance at Lamaque is 185,000 to 200,000 ounces of gold. Production is expected to increase in the second quarter with higher grades expected as a result of mine sequencing and increased throughput.

Efemcukuru

Efemcukuru produced 15,394 payable ounces of gold in Q1 2026, a decrease from 19,307 payable ounces in Q1 2025 driven by lower gold grade of 3.92 grams per tonne in Q1 2026 from 5.52 grams per tonne in Q1 2025, partly offset by higher throughput during the quarter.

Revenue increased to $78.6 million in Q1 2026 compared to $57.5 million in Q1 2025. The increase was due to the higher average realized gold price, partially offset by lower gold sold.

Production costs increased to $37.6 million in Q1 2026 from $24.7 million in Q1 2025 driven by higher royalty rates as a result of higher realized gold prices. Additionally, lower gold ounces sold resulted in an increase in total cash costs per ounce sold to $2,208 in Q1 2026, from $1,357 in Q1 2025.

AISC per ounce sold increased to $2,528 in Q1 2026 from $1,550 in Q1 2025, primarily due to the increase in total cash costs per ounce sold, as well as higher sustaining capital expenditures as a result of increased development.

Sustaining capital expenditures of $4.6 million in Q1 2026 related primarily to underground development. Growth capital investment of $2.4 million related to both portal development for Kokarpinar and development costs at Bati.

For 2026, production guidance at Efemcukuru is forecast to be 70,000 to 80,000 ounces of gold. Production in the second quarter is expected to be consistent with the first quarter.

Olympias

Olympias produced 14,319 payable ounces of gold in Q1 2026, a 21% increase from 11,829 ounces in Q1 2025. The increase is a reflection of stable ore blend and flotation performance which resulted in increased metal recoveries.

Revenue increased to $88.5 million in Q1 2026 compared to $46.5 million in Q1 2025 primarily as a result of higher realized gold price, as well as higher sales volumes, grades and recoveries of gold and base metals.

Production costs increased to $52.1 million in Q1 2026 from $40.3 million in Q1 2025. Increases in costs were driven primarily by higher royalties due to the higher realized gold price, combined with the stronger Euro and its impact on costs in local currency, including labour. Total cash costs decreased to $1,628 in Q1 2026 from $2,398 in Q1 2025 due to higher allocation of costs to by-products and higher gold ounces sold, partially offset by higher royalties.

AISC per ounce sold decreased to $2,031 in Q1 2026 from $2,842 in Q1 2025 primarily due to lower total cash cost per ounce sold and higher volumes sold. Sustaining capital expenditures of $4.6 million in Q1 2026 primarily included underground development, underground resource classification drilling and mobile mining equipment rebuilds and purchases. Growth capital investment of $8.0 million in Q1 2026 was driven by the mill expansion project, with sequential completion expected in Q3 2026 and ramp-up expected in Q4 2026.

For 2026, production guidance at Olympias is forecast to be 70,000 to 80,000 ounces of gold. Production in the second quarter is expected to increase with higher grades expected as a result of mine sequencing.

Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures and Ratios

Certain non-IFRS financial measures and ratios are included in this news release, including earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA"), adjusted net earnings/(loss) attributable to shareholders, adjusted net earnings/(loss) per share attributable to shareholders, total cash costs and total cash costs per ounce sold, all-in sustaining costs ("AISC") and AISC per ounce sold, sustaining and growth capital, average realized gold price per ounce sold, free cash flow, free cash flow excluding Skouries, and cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital.

Please see the March 31, 2026 MD&A for explanations and discussion of these non-IFRS and other financial measures and ratios. The Company believes that these measures, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, provide investors an improved ability to evaluate the performance of our gold mining operations and its ability to generate positive cash flow. These non-IFRS financial measures and ratios are intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. These financial measures and ratios do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS, and therefore may not be comparable to other issuers.

We believe that our use of total cash costs per ounce sold and all-in sustaining costs per ounce sold will assist analysts, investors and other stakeholders of the Company in understanding the costs associated with producing gold, assessing our operating performance, and our ability to generate free cash flow from gold operations. Due to the capital-intensive nature of the industry and the long useful lives over which these assets are depreciated, there can be a significant timing difference between net earnings calculated in accordance with IFRS and the amount of free cash flow that is generated by a mine, and therefore we believe these measures are useful non-IFRS operating metrics and supplement our IFRS disclosures. These measures are not representative of all of our cash expenditures as they do not include income tax payments, interest costs or dividend payments. These measures do not include depreciation or amortization. Certain additional disclosures for these and other financial measures and ratios have been incorporated by reference and can be found in the section 'Non-IFRS and Other Financial Measures and Ratios' in the March 31, 2026 MD&A available on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.com and on the Company's website under the 'Investors' section.

Forward-Looking Statements and Information

Certain of the statements made and information provided in this news release are forward-looking statements or forward-looking information within the meaning of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and applicable Canadian securities laws. Often, these forward-looking statements and forward-looking information can be identified by the use of words such as “anticipates”, “believes”, “continues”, “commitment”, “estimates”, “expects”, “forecasts”, “foresees”, “future”, “goal”, “guidance”, “intends”, “opportunity”, “outlook”, “plans”, “potential”, “projects”, “prospective”, “scheduled”, “strives”, or “targets” or the negatives thereof or variations of such words and phrases or statements that certain actions, events, or results “can”, “could”, “likely”, “may”, “might”, “will” or “would” be taken, occur or be achieved.

Forward-looking statements and forward-looking information contained in this news release includes, but is not limited to, statements or information with respect to: the Company’s 2026 annual production guidance (both for the company and by material property) and relative production through the year; cost guidance (including expected total cash costs and average AISC); expected changes to Eldorado's management team and Board and the timing in relation thereto; with respect to Skouries: our expectation of first concentrate production in Q3 and commercial production in Q4 2026; expected stronger terms in offtake contract negotiations; projected gold production and copper production; expected project capital and accelerated operational capital and the timing thereof; expected progress on construction activities and commissioning activities; expected timing and development of test stopes; and expected completion of theoretical training; with respect to Kisladag, expected completion of the geometallurgical study in Q2 2026, opportunities for the open pit and expected benefits of the mine optimizing plan; our expectation to increase waste stripping; and our expectation of decreased production in Q2; with respect to Lamaque, expectations for increased production in Q2; with respect to Efemcukuru, our expectation that production in Q2 to be consistent with Q1; with respect to Olympias, our expectation of increased production in Q2; and expected sequential completion in Q3 and expected ramp-up in Q4 for the mill expansion project; the date of the conference call on May 1, 2026; and generally our strategy, plans and goals, including our proposed exploration, development, construction, permitting, financing and operating potential, plans and priorities and related timelines and schedules.

Forward-looking statements and forward-looking information by their nature are based on a number of assumptions that management considers reasonable. However, if such assumptions prove to be inaccurate, then actual results, activities, performance or achievements may be materially different from those described in the forward-looking statements or information. These include assumptions concerning: timing, cost and results of our construction and development activities, improvements, and exploration; the future price of gold, copper, and other commodities; receipt of all required permits on the timelines we expect; the global concentrate market; exchange rates; anticipated values, costs, expenses and working capital requirements; the successful integration of the assets and operations from the Foran acquisition, and the realization of benefits derived therefrom; our ability to continue accessing our project funding and remain in compliance with all covenants and contractual commitments related thereto; availability of labour resources, including for construction, development and improvements activities; production and metallurgical recoveries; Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources; our ability to effectively use invested capital and unlock the potential expansion opportunities across the portfolio; our ability to address the negative impacts of climate change and adverse weather; consistency of agglomeration and our ability to optimize it in the future; the cost of, and extent to which we use, essential consumables (including fuel, explosives, cement, and cyanide); the impact and effectiveness of productivity initiatives; the time and cost necessary of shipping for important or critical items for construction, development and improvements activities or for anticipated overhauls of equipment; expected by-product grades; the use, and impact or effectiveness, of growth capital; the impact of acquisitions, dispositions, suspensions or delays on our business; and the sustaining capital required for various projects; and the geopolitical, economic, permitting and legal climate that we operate in.

More specifically, with respect to the Skouries Project and updates, we have made additional assumptions regarding: our ability and our contractors’ ability to recruit and retain labour resources within the required timeline; labour productivity rates and expected hours; inflation rates; the expected scope of project management frameworks; our ability to continue executing our plans relating to the Skouries Project on the estimated existing project timeline and consistent with the current planned project scope; the timeliness of shipping for important or critical items; our ability to continue accessing our project funding and remain in compliance with all covenants and contractual commitments related thereto; our ability to obtain and maintain all required approvals and permits, both overall and in a timely manner; our ability to obtain the requisite inspections and approvals for energization of the power supply from the power authority in a timely manner; the absence of further previously unidentified archaeological discoveries which would delay construction of various portions of the project; the future price of gold, copper and other commodities; and the broader community engagement and social climate in respect of the Skouries Project.

In addition, except where otherwise stated, Eldorado has assumed a continuation of existing business operations on substantially the same basis as exists at the time of this news release. Even though we believe that the assumptions and expectations represented by such statements or information are reasonable, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statement or information will prove to be accurate. Many assumptions may be difficult to predict and are beyond our control.

Furthermore, should one or more of the risks, uncertainties and other factors materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those described in the forward-looking statements or information. Generally, these risks, uncertainties and other factors include, among others: commodity price risk; development risks at Skouries, McIlvenna Bay, and other construction and development projects; including the ability of key suppliers to meet key contractual commitments in terms of schedules, amount of product delivered, cost, or quality and our ability to construct key infrastructure within the required timelines, and unexpected inclement weather and climate events that may delay timelines; risks relating to our operations in foreign jurisdictions; risks related to production and processing; risks related to our improvement projects; integration risks relating to the Foran acquisition, including the possibility that anticipated benefits from the Foran acquisition are not realized on the timeline expected or at all; delays and risks relating to surface construction, commissioning activities, ramp-up, and commercial production at McIlvenna Bay; our ability to secure supplies of power and water at a reasonable cost; prices of commodities and consumables; our reliance on significant amounts of critical equipment; our reliance on infrastructure, commodities and consumables; inflation risk; community relations and social license; risks related to title and surface rights; environmental, health and safety matters; our ability to completely understand geotechnical structures, geotechnical and hydrogeological conditions or failures, and our ability to mitigate such conditions or failures at a reasonable cost, or at all; regulatory requirements as they relate to mine plan approvals; compliance with the Extractive Sector Transparency Measures Act (Canada); waste disposal; mineral tenure; permits, licences and other authorizations; non-governmental organizations; reputational issues; climate change; change of control; actions of activist shareholders; estimation of Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources; risks related to replacement of mineral reserves; regulatory reviews and different standards used to prepare and report Mineral Reserves and Mineral Resources; risks relating to any pandemic, epidemic, endemic, or similar public health threats; regulated substances; acquisitions, including general integration risks; dispositions; co-ownership of our properties; investment portfolio; volatility, volume fluctuations, and dilution risk in respect of our shares; competition; reliance on a limited number of smelters and off-takers; information and operational technology systems; liquidity and financing risks; indebtedness (including current and future operating restrictions, implications of a change of control, ability to meet debt service obligations, the implications of defaulting on obligations and changes in credit ratings); total cash costs per ounce and AISC (particularly in relation to the market price of gold and the Company’s profitability); currency risk; interest rate risk; credit risk; tax matters; financial reporting (including relating to the carrying value of our assets and changes in reporting standards); the global economic environment; labour risks (availability of labour resources, including for construction, development and improvements activities, and their productivity; and risks relating to employee/union relations, employee misconduct, key personnel, skilled workforce, expatriates, and contractors); turnover and attrition rates of labour, and related impacts thereto; default on obligations; current and future operating restrictions; reclamation and long-term obligations; credit ratings; change in reporting standards; the unavailability of insurance; Sarbanes-Oxley Act, applicable securities laws, and stock exchange rules; risks relating to environmental, sustainability, and governance practices and performance; corruption, bribery, and sanctions; employee misconduct; litigation and contracts; conflicts of interest; compliance with privacy legislation; dividends; cyber security risk; and international conflict and other geopolitical tensions and events, including war, tariffs and other trade barriers; and those risk factors discussed in our most recent Annual Information Form & Form 40-F. The reader is directed to carefully review the detailed risk discussion in our most recent Annual Information Form & Form 40-F filed on SEDAR+ and EDGAR under our Company name, which discussion is incorporated by reference in this new release, for a fuller understanding of the risks and uncertainties that affect our business and operations. 

With respect to the Skouries Project, these risks, uncertainties, and other factors may cause further delays in the completion of the construction and commissioning at the Skouries Project, which in turn may cause delays in the commencement of production, and further increase to the costs of the Skouries Project. The specific risks, uncertainties and other factors include, among others: our ability, and the ability of our construction contractors to recruit the required number of personnel (both skilled and unskilled) with required skills within the required timelines, and to manage changes to workforce numbers through the construction of the Skouries Project; our ability to recruit personnel having the requisite skills, experience, and ability to work on site; our ability to efficiently manage the transitions from construction to commission to operations; our ability to increase productivity by, among other things, adding or modifying labour shifts; rising labour costs or costs of key inputs such as materials, power and fuel; risks related to any unanticipated critical equipment defects or failures during the commissioning and ramp-up of operations; risks related to third-party contractors, including reduced control over aspects of the Company's operations, and/or the ability of contractors to perform at required levels and according to baseline schedules and any commercial disputes that may arise from a contractor’s failure to meet these requirements; the ability of key suppliers to meet key contractual commitments in terms of schedules, amount of product delivered, cost, or quality; impacts to overhead costs related to the schedule; our ability to construct key infrastructure within the required timelines, including the process plant, filter plant, substation, waste management facilities, embankments, tailings conveyors, water management infrastructure, and control centre; the timely receipt of necessary permits and authorizations; differences between projected and actual degree of pre-strip required in the open pit; variability in metallurgical recoveries and concentrate quality due to factors such as extent and intensity of oxidation or presence of transition minerals; presence of additional structural features impacting hydrological and geotechnical considerations; variability in minerals or presence of substances that may have an impact on filtered tails performance and resulting bulk density of stockpiles or filtered tails; distribution of sulfides that may dilute concentrate and change the characteristics of tailings; unexpected disruptions to operations due to protests, non-routine regulatory inspections, road conditions, or labour unrest; unexpected inclement weather and climate events, including wildfires, short and long duration rainfall and floods and other extreme weather events; our ability to meet pre-commercial producing mining or underground development targets; unexpected results from underground stopes; new archaeological discoveries requiring the completion of a regulatory process; changes in support from local communities; and our ability to meet the expectations of communities, governments, and stakeholders related to the Skouries Project. Our project capital and accelerated operational capital costs at Skouries are incurred primarily in Euros but are reported in US dollars and are therefore sensitive to fluctuations in the EUR/USD exchange rate.

The inclusion of forward-looking statements and information is designed to help you understand management’s current views of our near- and longer-term prospects, and it may not be appropriate for other purposes. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements or information will prove to be accurate, as actual results and future events could differ materially from those anticipated in such statements. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements or information contained herein. Except as required by law, we do not expect to update forward-looking statements and information continually as conditions change and you are referred to the full discussion of the Company’s business contained in the Company’s reports filed with the securities regulatory authorities in Canada and the United States.

Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd (TSX:AEM) and Eldorado Gold Corp (TSX:ELD) both reported first quarter results that beat earnings expectations and delivered solid capital returns, according to analysts at Bank of America.

The analysts wrote that ‘Buy’-rated Agnico Eagle generated adjusted EBITDA of $3.01 billion in the first quarter, ahead of forecasts near $2.86 to $2.92 billion, while adjusted earnings per share of $3.41 also topped expectations.

Free cash flow reached $732 million despite a significant working capital outflow, supporting share repurchases of $150 million. Combined with dividends, total capital return for the quarter reached approximately $375 million, or about 51% of free cash flow, exceeding the company’s annual target, which analysts highlighted as stronger than expected.

Operationally, Agnico Eagle’s gold production and unit costs were broadly in line with expectations, while sales and overhead costs came in better than anticipated. The company reiterated its full-year production and cost guidance.

The analysts wrote that Agnico Eagle highlighted “cost uncertainty” tied to geopolitical developments but expects its regional operating strategy to help mitigate those pressures. The company ended the quarter with net cash of $2.9 billion, up from $2.67 billion at the end of 2025, and continues to advance key projects, including a potential construction decision at Hope Bay expected this month.

Bank of America maintained a positive view on Agnico Eagle, citing its asset base in top-tier jurisdictions, consistent operational performance, and growth pipeline.

Eldorado Gold also delivered a first-quarter earnings beat, with adjusted EBITDA of $336 million surpassing expectations in the range of $283 million to $309 million, the analysts noted.

Adjusted earnings per share of $0.95 exceeded forecasts, supported by stronger production, higher gold sales volumes, and lower cash costs, along with reduced depreciation and tax expenses.

Gold production totaled 100,400 ounces, above expectations, while unit costs also came in lower than anticipated.

The company reaffirmed its 2026 guidance, though analysts noted an increase in capital expenditures for the Skouries project, which is now expected to cost $1.32 billion, up by $155 million. First production at Skouries remains on track for the third quarter of 2026.

Despite the stronger operating performance, Eldorado reported negative free cash flow of approximately $188 million in the quarter, reflecting higher capital spending and working capital requirements. Net debt increased to $601 million from $406 million at the end of last year. The company repurchased $84 million of shares during the period.

The analysts maintained a more cautious stance on Eldorado with an ‘Underperform’ rating, pointing to elevated execution risk related to the Skouries project and additional complexity following its recent acquisition of Foran, which expands its exposure to base metals.

Shares of Eldorado Gold were down 1.9% post-earnings, while Agnico Eagle shares also fell 2%.

Sovereign debt loads keep climbing, the dollar index is wobbling, and central banks are still net buyers of bullion. That backdrop has pushed realized gold prices into uncharted territory, with major producers booking $3,500 to nearly $4,900 per ounce on Q1 sales. For retail investors scanning for hard-asset exposure without paying $200-plus for a megacap, a handful of producers still trade for less than the price of a tank of premium fuel.

With that in mind, here are four gold and copper miners trading under $45 that screen as bargains against the macro backdrop. (Note: ENI was excluded from this list because it is an integrated oil and gas major rather than a materials producer, and its ADR trades above the $45 ceiling.)

Barrick Mining (NYSE: B) Barrick Mining (NYSE:B) is a global gold and copper producer with operations in 17 countries and tier-one assets including Nevada Gold Mines, Pueblo Viejo, and the Reko Diq copper-gold project in Pakistan. Shares at $41.28 sit comfortably below the $45 ceiling despite a 124.51% one-year gain, leaving room against the $58.17 analyst target.

The fundamentals back the macro thesis. FY25 revenue jumped 31% to $16.96 billion, EPS came in at $2.93 (+140% YoY), and free cash flow hit $3.87 billion. Management responded with a 140% jump in the quarterly dividend to $0.42, a new 50% payout policy on attributable free cash, and $1.5 billion in buybacks retiring roughly 3% of shares. As the agile base-plus-performance dividend model compounds, the copper pivot via Reko Diq and Lumwana adds a second growth lever. CEO Mark Hill called Q4 “record quarterly cash flow… highest shareholder returns in this company’s history.”

The risk: 2026 gold guidance of 2.90 to 3.25 million ounces sits below 2025 actuals, and Mali remains a geopolitical wildcard. At 11x trailing earnings, the bargain is intact.

Kinross Gold (NYSE: KGC) Kinross Gold (NYSE:KGC | KGC Price Prediction) operates in the US, Brazil, Mauritania, and Chile, with a $34.18 billion market cap. Shares at $28.68 sit well under the ceiling after a 97.37% one-year run.

Q1 26 revenue grew 60.8% to $2.41 billion on a $4,873/oz realized gold price, and free cash flow of $837.5 million marked the fourth consecutive record quarter. Buybacks since April 2025 have reduced the count by roughly 3%. At 9x forward earnings, against an analyst target of $41.23, the discount is real. Risk: planned production decline to 2.0 million Au eq oz in 2026 and Mauritanian tax friction.

Harmony Gold Mining (NYSE: HMY) Harmony Gold Mining (NYSE:HMY) is a South African producer pivoting into copper via the $1.00 billion MAC Copper acquisition closed October 2025. At $17.19, the stock trades at 11x earnings, with nine-month gold and copper revenue up 34% to $4.02 billion and a net cash swing of $78 million from net debt of $335 million.

CEO Beyers Nel pointed to an “11th consecutive year of meeting production guidance” and a pathway to roughly 100,000 tonnes of copper per annum. Risks include rand exposure, Eskom reliability, and lower-grade years at Moab Khotsong.

Eldorado Gold (NYSE: EGO) Eldorado Gold (NYSE:EGO) operates in Turkey, Canada, and Greece, with the $1.315 billion Skouries copper-gold project ~94% complete and first concentrate targeted Q3 2026. Q1 26 revenue rose 49.9% to $532.4 million, beating estimates by 4.5%, and adjusted EPS of $0.95 beat by 44.18%.

At $31.69, the stock trades at 7x forward earnings against a $45 analyst target. Skouries capex creep and a Q3 CEO transition are the live risks worth tracking.

Bottom Line Each of these names carries jurisdictional, operational, and commodity-cycle risk that can override a favorable macro setup. Investors should weigh production guidance, AISC trajectories, and capital-return policies against their own time horizon before treating sub-$45 gold equities as a free option on sovereign debt anxiety.

At the center of everything we do is a strong commitment to independent research and sharing its profitable discoveries with investors. This dedication to giving investors a trading advantage led to the creation of our proven Zacks Rank stock-rating system. Since 1988 it has more than doubled the S&P 500 with an average gain of +23.70% per year. These returns cover a period from January 1, 1988 through April 6, 2026. Zacks Rank stock-rating system returns are computed monthly based on the beginning of the month and end of the month Zacks Rank stock prices plus any dividends received during that particular month. A simple, equally-weighted average return of all Zacks Rank stocks is calculated to determine the monthly return. The monthly returns are then compounded to arrive at the annual return. Only Zacks Rank stocks included in Zacks hypothetical portfolios at the beginning of each month are included in the return calculations. Zacks Ranks stocks can, and often do, change throughout the month. Certain Zacks Rank stocks for which no month-end price was available, pricing information was not collected, or for certain other reasons have been excluded from these return calculations. Zacks may license the Zacks Mutual Fund rating provided herein to third parties, including but not limited to the issuer.

Key Takeaways Eldorado Gold produced its first copper concentrate at the fully owned McIlvenna Bay Project.McIlvenna Bay adds copper and zinc production, diversifying Eldorado Gold's asset base.Eldorado Gold plans to invest $17M in 2026 exploration at McIlvenna Bay and nearby claims. Eldorado Gold Corporation (EGO - Free Report) announced that it produced the first copper concentrate at its fully owned McIlvenna Bay Project. This milestone production solidifies Eldorado Gold’s Canadian operating platform.

McIlvenna Bay Project Enhances EGO’s ExposureIn April 2026, Eldorado Gold announced that it acquired all outstanding shares of Foran Mining Corporation, boosting the balance and resilience of EGO’s existing asset base. The acquisition of Foran added two high-quality, fully financed development assets — Skouries and McIlvenna Bay — to Eldorado Gold’s portfolio.

The McIlvenna Bay Project in east-central Saskatchewan, Canada, meaningfully diversified Eldorado Gold's asset base with substantial production of copper and zinc. By adding highly demanded critical minerals like copper, the project provides the company with significant exposure and complements its well-balanced portfolio. The production of the first copper concentrate at the project is a milestone for Saskatchewan and for Canada.

Combined with the Skouries project in Greece, McIlvenna Bay is expected to transform the company into a high-margin, free-cash-flow-generating business. Moreover, the project is expected to yield jobs, economic activity and long-term prosperity for communities across Saskatchewan through the upcoming years.

Eldorado Gold’s Focus on GrowthIn 2026, EGO is committing around $17 million to further exploration at McIlvenna Bay and its surrounding claims. This investment reflects the highly prospective, district-scale nature of the land package and fuels ongoing growth.

The nearby Tesla Zone, which is a high-grade polymetallic discovery, offers an excellent long-term expansion opportunity for McIlvenna Bay. Along with testing for copper-rich extensions at Tesla, Eldorado Gold’s exploration team plans to drill the Bigstone deposit to grow its resource base.

EGO Stock’s Price PerformanceEldorado Gold shares have gained 44.2% in the past year compared with the industry’s return of 54.7%.
