▲(12.82% Upside)
Action:UpgradedDate:02/19/26
The score is driven primarily by improved financial performance (profitability rebound, deleveraging, and 2025 positive free cash flow) and strong technical uptrend (price above key moving averages with positive MACD). The latest earnings call supports the outlook via record cash generation and shareholder returns, while valuation is only moderate and the key risk remains cost pressure and historically volatile cash flows.
Positive Factors
Strong cash generation
Sustained, material operating cash flow (> $1.0B in 2025) provides durable internal funding for capex, deleveraging and buybacks. High absolute cash generation improves optionality to invest, shore up operations and return capital even if gold prices moderate, strengthening long-term resilience.
Negative Factors
Elevated AISC and royalty pressure
High all-in sustaining costs and outsized royalty burdens structurally compress per-ounce margins and make cash flows more sensitive to lower gold prices. Persistent royalty and AISC pressure can limit free cash flow resilience and constrain returns on incremental production over multiple years.

IAMGOLD Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:Feb 17, 2026
(Q4-2025)
| % Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:May 07, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Positive
The call was decisively positive on financial and operational performance: record revenue, EBITDA, mine-site free cash flow and substantial deleveraging coupled with production records, resource growth and strategic asset consolidation. Key near-term challenges are elevated per-ounce costs driven by higher royalties, temporary processing costs at Côté and a reserve decline at Essakane; management has clear mitigation plans (operational optimizations, removal of temporary crusher, staged expansion, use of free cash flow for buybacks) and substantial liquidity to execute them. On balance, highlights (strong cash generation, balance sheet repair, shareholder returns, resource upside) materially outweigh the lowlights.Positive Updates
Record revenue, margins and cash flow
Reported near $3.0 billion revenue in 2025 with gross margin >40% and generated operating cash flow of over $1.0 billion (including $702 million in Q4). Adjusted EBITDA ~ $1.6 billion in 2025 versus $780.6 million in 2024 (~+105% YoY).
Negative Updates
Elevated costs and royalty pressure
Company-wide AISC was $1,900 for the year and Q4 AISC $1,750. Royalties materially pressured cash costs as gold prices rose: royalties averaged ~ $330/oz (~24% of cash cost company-wide in Q4) and at Essakane royalties in Q4 were ~$460/oz (~36% of that asset's cash cost).
