Equinox Gold said its combination with Orla Mining creates a larger North American producer and raised 2026 consolidated production guidance to 870,000–920,000 ounces (about 1.1 million pro forma). The board approved a 50% dividend increase to $0.09 per share and management reported $650 million cash, roughly $214 million net cash and about $1.2 billion available liquidity. Operational improvements at Valentine and Greenstone supported the outlook, the company approved full funding for Valentine Phase II, and President Jason Simpson will succeed retiring CEO Darren Hall. » Mais em finance.yahoo.com
