Analysis
First Majestic Silver Corp. delivered exceptionally strong first-quarter 2026 financial results, with record revenues, net earnings, and free cash flow. The company's treasury reached an all-time high of $1.13 billion. Despite a slight decrease in production, this was attributed to a strategic reduction in cut-off grades due to higher metal prices, indicating improved profitability. The company also announced a significant 281% increase in its quarterly dividend and commenced a restart plan for its Jerritt Canyon Gold Mine, signaling strong future growth prospects. Ongoing tax disputes are noted, including a new $115 million reassessment for 2018, but the company maintains its strong legal position.
