An update from Orbit Garant Drill ( (TSE:OGD) ) is now available.
Orbit Garant reported a 10.5% year-over-year rise in second-quarter fiscal 2026 revenue to $47.9 million, driven by higher drilling activity and a greater share of specialized work in Canada, as well as stronger volumes in Chile and Guyana. Despite this growth, gross margin and adjusted gross margin contracted due to lower productivity on some Canadian projects, competitive pricing pressures and customer-driven delays and changes to programs in South America, though net earnings improved to $1.3 million and adjusted EBITDA rose on favourable foreign exchange.
Management highlighted the full resumption of delayed projects, record-high drill utilization rates not seen in more than two years and a strengthening pipeline of requests from both major and junior mining clients, underpinned by record gold and high copper prices. The company expects further utilization gains in the second half of fiscal 2026 and into fiscal 2027, although some benefits may be deferred by severe winter weather in Canada, indicating solid underlying demand but ongoing operational and pricing challenges for stakeholders to monitor.
The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:OGD) stock is a Hold with a C$2.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Orbit Garant Drill stock, see the TSE:OGD Stock Forecast page.
Spark’s Take on TSE:OGD Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, TSE:OGD is a Neutral.
The score is driven by mixed financial performance (pressure on revenue growth, low net margins, and weaker free cash flow) balanced by clearly improving technical momentum. Valuation appears reasonable on P/E, while the latest earnings call tempers optimism with near-term revenue/margin weakness and higher debt despite a better demand outlook and a share buyback.
