Analysis
Aris Mining reported Q3 gold production of 69.3 koz and gold revenue of $287 million, with an average realized gold price of $4,205/oz. Q3 adjusted EBITDA was $144 million and adjusted net earnings were $73 million or $0.35/share. Production and earnings were lower than Q2 2026 on the reported comparisons, when production was 73.7 koz, adjusted EBITDA was $179 million and adjusted earnings were $96 million or $0.47/sh.
The YTD performance was substantially stronger than YTD 2025. Gold production was 217.3 koz, up 16% from 186.7 koz. YTD adjusted EBITDA reached $535 million, up 81% from $296 million, while YTD adjusted earnings reached $293 million or $1.42/sh, up 99% from $147 million or $0.80/sh. The release attributes Segovia's quarterly performance to higher throughput and continued strong gold prices, while noting that lower grade versus Q2 and explosives constraints at contract mining partners affected production.
Capital allocation remains concentrated on the operating expansions. Additions to mining interest, plant and equipment were 143,915 ($’000) in Q3, comprising 23,337 ($’000) of sustaining capital and 120,578 ($’000) of growth capital investment. This resulted in free cash flow after growth and expansion capital of (50,751) ($’000) for Q3, despite 93,980 ($’000) of adjusted net cash provided by operating activities. Cash was $419 million at September 30, 2026.
Marmato is the central near-term execution milestone. Q3 production fell to 5.8 koz as the transition from Cascabel 2 required approximately four weeks of flotation plant downtime, although the company completed flotation upgrades and commissioned Cascabel 3. The new 5,000 tpd design-capacity CIP plant is in commissioning, with first gold expected in December 2026. Aris Mining continues to target the lower end of 2026 production guidance of 300,000 to 350,000 ounces of gold, while its 2027 operating ramp and the Toroparu and Soto Norte permitting and development milestones remain important to the longer-term production plan.
Management, verbatim
Aris Mining delivered another strong quarter, with cash generated from Segovia supporting our significant capital investment program during the most capital-intensive phase of the Marmato expansion, while maintaining a strong balance sheet.
Neil Woodyer, Chair and CEO
At Marmato, construction of the new carbon-in-pulp (CIP) plant is nearing completion and commissioning activities are underway, with the first gold pour expected in December 2026 following start-up of the processing and gold-recovery circuits.
Neil Woodyer, Chair and CEO
Together, the Segovia and Marmato expansions underpin our target of approximately 500,000 ounces² of annual gold production once fully ramped up.
