Centerra Gold

Centerra Gold plans to finance growth from operating cash flow and over CAD 1 billion liquidity, remains debt-free, and intends to buy back shares and pay dividends. Mount Milligan’s life of mine was extended to 2045 and, according to management, is the main value driver, while Öksüt continues to generate strong free cash flow. The restart of the Thompson Creek molybdenum mine is on schedule and on budget, with production targeted for mid-2027 and seen as a major inflection point for free cash flow. Other projects (Goldfield, Kemess) are being staged to avoid overlapping large financing needs. » Mais em de.investing.com
