Memo

AGNICO EAGLE MINES LIMITED (AEM). Latest full fiscal year: 2025; data up to 2025-12-31.

Figures computed from the financial statements: revenue 11.9 bn USD in 2025; YoY growth 43.7%; net margin 37.5%; ROE 19.6%.

The estimated value range is 136.89–257.66 USD per share (median of 2 methods, agreement: high); assumptions are illustrative. Against the central value of 162.14 USD, the price of 183.45 USD leaves a potential of -11.6% (value / price − 1) and a margin of safety of -13.1% (1 − price / value). The range is the median of the methods' low, central and high values, not a probability interval.

olivLaw score 75/100, methodological classification: neutral profile (score, margin of safety and method agreement together; not a judgement of the right price). Groups assessed only in part: balance. Not investment advice.

Text generated deterministically from the figures shown; no language model. Not investment advice.

  • Net margin: 37.5%
  • FCF conversion: 98.6%
  • Revenue CAGR 3Y: 27.5%
  • EPS CAGR 3Y: 79.6%
  • Current ratio: 2.0x
  • Payout ratio (FCF): 16.6%

What contradicts it

  • Shareholder yield (distributions): 1.5%

Not assessed (insufficient data or a ratio without meaning): ROIC, Net debt / EBITDA, Interest coverage, EV/EBITDA.

In brief

Agnico Eagle Mines Limited is a Canadian gold and base-metals miner listed on the NYSE that reports to the SEC on Form 40-F. The company has set an ambitious target of annual gold output at Detour Lake and Canadian Malartic, and its fill the mill strategy and expansion projects in Ontario, Quebec and Australia define its growth direction in the coming years 1.

SWOT

Strengths

  • The company holds a portfolio of mines in Canada and Australia with clearly stated output objectives 1.
  • Its financial reporting is audited by an international firm, and internal control over financial reporting is assessed as effective 1.
  • The company has an audit committee with recognised financial experts and a published code of ethics 1.

Weaknesses

  • Reserves and resources are estimated under Canadian standards, which makes comparison with US companies harder 1.
  • Non-IFRS performance measures are not standardised, which limits their comparability with other producers 1.
  • The company relies on a few major operations, and disruption at any of them could affect results 1.

Opportunities

  • The fill the mill strategy and a possible expansion at Odyssey could add output without major new mines 1.
  • Exploration and development projects in Canada and Australia could extend resources over the longer term 1.
  • Higher metal prices could widen margins if costs stay under control 1.

Threats

  • A fall in gold prices could sharply reduce revenue and profitability 1.
  • Changes to environmental and climate regulation could raise compliance costs 1.
  • Operational disruptions, seismic events or community protests, including by Indigenous groups, could halt production 1.

Risks

  • Metal price volatilityhigh

    Revenue depends on gold, silver, zinc and copper prices, and declines could affect results 1.

  • Operational and seismic riskhigh

    Seismic activity at underground mines can affect production, as the company's own assumptions acknowledge 1.

  • Environmental and climate riskmedium

    Changes in climate and environmental law could impose extra compliance and remediation costs 1.

  • Currency exposuremedium

    Exchange rates between the Canadian dollar, euro, Australian dollar and Mexican peso against the US dollar can change costs and revenues 1.

  • Permitting and community riskmedium

    Obtaining permits and community protests, including by Indigenous groups, could delay projects 1.

Investment thesis

What would need to be true (bull case)

  • If output targets at Detour Lake and Canadian Malartic are met, the company could see a meaningful rise in gold volumes 1.
  • The fill the mill strategy could use existing plant capacity without large additional investment 1.
  • A portfolio spread across Canada and Australia could reduce dependence on a single jurisdiction 1.

What would break the thesis

  • If gold prices fall, margins could be squeezed and the output targets could become harder to justify economically 1.
  • Seismic and operational risks could interrupt production and raise unexpected costs 1.
  • Resource and reserve estimates are uncertain, and inferred resources cannot be assumed to be economically extractable 1.

What to watch

  • Delivery of output targets at Detour Lake and Canadian Malartic2026
  • Progress of the fill the mill strategy at Canadian Malartic2026
  • Trend in total cash costs and all-in sustaining costs per ouncenext 10-K

Products, market & competition

AI-generatedAI-generated analysis (Claude) from cited public sources; it may contain errors. Not investment advice. As of 27 Oct 2026 · Model: claude-haiku-5-5.

Possibly outdated: the newest document it read is from 19 Mar 2026; since then the company filed 6-K (02 Nov 2026), 6-K (28 Oct 2026), 6-K (29 Sept 2026), 6-K (09 Sept 2026), 6-K (31 Aug 2026), 6-K (24 Aug 2026).

The business

Agnico Eagle is a Canadian mining company headquartered in Toronto that develops and operates gold mines and, as its documents indicate, by-product metals such as silver, zinc and copper 1. It presents its results in US dollars under IFRS and uses non-IFRS measures such as total cash costs per ounce and all-in sustaining costs per ounce 1. As a foreign private issuer it files annual reports on Form 40-F under the MJDS 1.

As an MJDS filer, Agnico Eagle uses Canadian NI 43-101 standards for mineral reserve and resource estimates, so these figures are not directly comparable with those of US companies 1. The document stresses that inferred mineral resources cannot be assumed to be economically mineable and that estimates may differ from actual results 1.

Governance includes an audit committee of three independent members, with Ernst & Young LLP as independent auditor in Toronto 1. The company maintains an executive compensation clawback policy under NYSE rules and Rule 10D-1 1.

Segments

Gold mines in Canada

Key assets include Detour Lake and Canadian Malartic, for which the company has set a target of one million ounces of gold per year at each 1. The document also references LaRonde, Goldex and Odyssey, along with the Wasamac and Marben Alliance projects 1.

Operations in Australia

Fosterville in Australia is among the company's operations alongside its Canadian assets and is exposed to the seismic risks cited in its outlook 1.

Development and exploration projects

The fill the mill strategy at Canadian Malartic and a possible second shaft at Odyssey are presented as potential sources of additional output, subject to their completion 1. The company also reports exploration programmes and estimates of development capital expenditure 1.

Market context

The reference market is precious and base metals, where revenue depends directly on gold, silver, zinc and copper prices and on exchange rates between the Canadian dollar, euro, Australian dollar, Mexican peso and US dollar 1. The company is listed on the NYSE and the TSX, exposing it to both US and Canadian investors 1.

The Bank of Canada rate reported for March 18, 2026 was C$1.3706 per US dollar, a useful reference for reading revenues and costs in different currencies 1. Changes in this rate can shift operating margins if expenses are incurred in a different currency from revenues 1.

Trends

  • Gold demand and pricemixed

    Gold prices remain the central driver of revenue, and the company's output target could support strong results if prices stay favourable 1.

  • Production expansiontailwind

    The fill the mill strategy and expansion projects could raise output if ramp-up and recovery rates are confirmed 1.

  • Environmental and climate regulationheadwind

    Changes in climate and environmental rules could raise compliance and remediation costs, as the company's filing warns 1.

  • Operating costs and labourheadwind

    Prices and availability of equipment, labour and construction supplies affect costs, and any disruption could weigh on margins 1.

Competitive position

The filing does not describe rivals in detail, but the company operates among gold and base-metal producers, where comparisons are made on cost per ounce and annual output 1. The company notes that its measures are not standardised and may differ from those reported by other gold producers 1.

The company's differentiation rests on its high-grade Canadian and Australian assets, its per-mine output target and cost discipline, which the filing presents as priorities 1.

  • Other Canadian gold producers

    The filing refers generally to other gold producers without naming them, so cost and output comparisons remain unspecified 1.

  • Gold producers in Australia

    Australian operations such as Fosterville are mentioned, but local competitors are not identified 1.

  • Silver and base-metal producers

    The company also produces by-product metals, so it competes with silver, zinc and copper producers that the document does not name 1.

  • Other NYSE-listed mining companies

    Agnico Eagle is NYSE-listed, but the filing does not identify other listed companies as direct rivals 1.
