Swung from a net loss of $8.3M to a net profit of $4.7M in Q1.
Net sales increased 256% while cost of sales rose only 80%.
Definitive merger agreement with Goldgroup Mining Inc. expected to close Q3 2026.
Facing a $18.3M tax sanction from Mexican authorities.
The Q1 2026 filing reveals a company at a crossroads between operational success and structural fragility. On one hand, the Don David Gold Mine is performing exceptionally well, generating $14.9 million in operating cash flow and proving its ability to capitalize on high metal prices. The balance sheet has improved with $31 million in cash, providing a temporary cushion against immediate liquidity needs. However, the overarching narrative is dominated by the risk of the Back Forty Project's permitting timeline and the high-stakes merger with Goldgroup. While the operational metrics at DDGM are bullish, the binary risk associated with the Osisko stream agreements—where a permitting failure could lead to the loss of the Michigan assets—creates a significant overhang. Investors are essentially weighing the proven cash-flow generation in Mexico against a precarious set of legal and contractual obligations in the U.S. and Mexico.
