Silvercorp Metals Inc. reported substantial financial growth in its second quarter fiscal 2026 results, with revenue increasing 23% year over year to $83.3 million. The Canadian mining company's performance was driven by sales of 1.66 million ounces of silver, 2,033 ounces of gold, 14.75 million pounds of lead, and 5.67 million pounds of zinc, reflecting strong operational output across its mineral portfolio.
The company's adjusted net income reached $22.6 million, or $0.10 per share, excluding non-cash and one-time items, while operating cash flow demonstrated significant strength at $39.2 million. Free cash flow totaled $11.4 million, indicating the company's ability to generate surplus cash after accounting for capital expenditures. Silvercorp ended the quarter with substantial financial resources, including $382.3 million in cash and short-term investments and $180.2 million in equity holdings.
Capital expenditure during the quarter included $15.8 million allocated across the company's China operations and $10.9 million directed toward development of the El Domo mine in Ecuador. The Ecuadorian project received additional financial support through Silvercorp's recent draw of $43.9 million from its $175.5 million stream financing arrangement with Wheaton Precious Metals International Ltd. The full details of the financial results are available in the company's official release.
The company maintains a strategic focus on creating shareholder value through multiple approaches, including generating free cash flow from long-life mining operations, pursuing organic growth through extensive drilling programs, engaging in merger and acquisition activities to unlock additional value, and maintaining a long-term commitment to responsible mining practices and environmental, social, and governance principles. Silvercorp's consistent financial performance and strategic capital allocation demonstrate the company's position as a stable producer in the precious metals sector with growth potential through both existing operations and development projects.
