How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Key Terms

all-in sustaining costs, non-ifrs measure, normal course issuer bid, impairment reversal

4 terms

all-in sustaining costs financial

"Consolidated all-in sustaining costs (“AISC”) of $2,602 per ounce sold."

All-in sustaining costs (AISC) is a per-unit measure used mainly in the mining sector that captures the full ongoing cost to produce a unit of metal, including operating expenses, sustaining capital (maintenance of current operations), and a share of corporate overhead and site-level costs. Investors use AISC to judge whether production generates real profit and sustainable cash flow—think of it as the total monthly household cost to keep a home running, not just the utility bill.

non-ifrs measure financial

"“All-in sustaining costs” is a non-IFRS measure;"

A non-IFRS measure is a financial number a company reports that is calculated outside standard accounting rules; it adjusts or removes items such as one-time costs, taxes, or accounting entries to highlight what management sees as the business’s recurring performance. Investors use these figures like a tailored snapshot to understand underlying trends — similar to a chef sharing a simplified recipe — but because they are not standardized, they require careful comparison and scrutiny.

normal course issuer bid financial

"share buy backs under the Company's normal course issuer bid (“NCIB”)."

A Normal Course Issuer Bid is when a company buys back its own shares from the stock market over time. This usually shows that the company believes its stock is undervalued and wants to support its price, which can be important for investors to watch.

impairment reversal financial

"Included in EPS was an impairment reversal of $253 million for Fekola."

A reversal of an impairment is a bookkeeping entry that reduces or eliminates a previously recorded write-down of an asset when evidence shows the asset’s recoverable amount has risen since the impairment was recognized. Accounting standards set specific limits: under IFRS an impairment loss for most non‑financial assets (but not goodwill) can be reversed up to the amount the asset would have had without the earlier impairment, while US GAAP generally prohibits reversing impairment losses for long‑lived assets held for use (though other narrow categories and different rules may apply), so whether and how an impairment reversal is allowed depends on the applicable accounting standard.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 04, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- B2Gold Corp. (TSX: BTO, NYSE AMERICAN: BTG, NSX: B2G) (“B2Gold” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce its operational and financial results for the third quarter of 2026. All dollar figures are in United States dollars unless otherwise indicated. The consolidated financial statements and Management Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) relating to these results are available at www.b2gold.com.

Third Quarter 2026 Highlights

Revenue of $836 million on 195,018 gold ounces sold at an average realized price of $4,289 per ounce. Production of 193,321 ounces of gold, on track to deliver full-year production guidance at all operations.
Cash flow provided by operating activities of $239 million, cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital¹ of $387 million, and free cash flow² of $48 million, reflecting the first quarter post completion of the prepaid gold sales contracts in June 2026.
Consolidated all-in sustaining costs³ (“AISC”) of $2,602 per ounce sold. Reduced AISC guidance range to between $2,230 and $2,410 per ounce sold for 2026 (previously between $2,370 and $2,550 per ounce sold) to reflect strong year-to-date operating performance and expected results for the fourth quarter.
Earnings per share (“EPS”) of $0.31 and adjusted EPS⁴ of $0.14. Included in EPS was an impairment reversal of $253 million for Fekola.
Returned $59 million to shareholders in the quarter, consisting of $26 million in dividends paid and $33 million of share buy backs under the Company's normal course issuer bid (“NCIB”).
Strong financial position, including cash and cash equivalents of $294 million, working capital (defined as current assets less assets classified as held for sale and current liabilities) of $497 million, and an undrawn balance of $705 million on the Company's revolving credit facility.
Phase 1 upgrades to the Goose fixed crushing circuit completed, with the circuit now operating at 3,200 tpd following commissioning in mid-October 2026.
Menankoto exploitation permit granted on August 7, 2026, by the State of Mali. The Company commenced mining pre-stripping activities on the Menankoto permit area in October 2026.
Fourth quarter of 2026 dividend of $0.02 per share declared on November 4, 2026, payable on December 15, 2026, to shareholders of record as of December 2, 2026.

Mike Cinnamond, President and CEO of B2Gold, said “B2Gold delivered a strong third quarter, highlighted by continued outperformance from Masbate and Otjikoto and significant progress across several key strategic initiatives. During the quarter, we received the Menankoto exploitation permit, and waste stripping activities commenced in October. These are important milestones which support the continued growth and long-term value of the Fekola Complex. At Goose, our team continued to execute on plans to improve crushing capacity at site, with the addition of a new mobile crusher in the third quarter, and completion of Phase 1 upgrades to the fixed crusher in October, delivering 3,200 tonnes per day of crushed ore to the mill, in-line with the plan. The reduction in our full-year AISC guidance reflects the leverage in our business, where strong production performance and consistent execution translate into lower costs on a per-ounce basis. As we enter the final months of the year, our teams remain focused on safe and disciplined execution, and we remain well positioned to achieve consolidated annual production guidance for 2026 and create long-term value for shareholders.”

Outlook

Consolidated gold production was 634,732 ounces in the first nine months of 2026. Strong year-to-date production from Masbate and Otjikoto, and lower royalty costs at Fekola, helped drive lower than expected consolidated cash operating costs and all-in sustaining costs.

At the Fekola Mine, the Company remains focused on efficient operations at both the Fekola and Cardinal open-pits and Fekola underground. In the third quarter of 2026, open pit activities at Fekola transitioned to waste stripping in Phase 8. This large waste mining campaign will continue through the majority of 2027. The issuance of the Menankoto exploitation permit by the State of Mali during the third quarter, which together with the Dandoko exploration permit forms Fekola Regional, unlocks one of the Company's most important near-term growth opportunities. With the Menankoto exploitation permit now received, mining pre-stripping activities commenced in October and ore is expected to be delivered to the Fekola process plant in the first quarter of 2027, upon completion of the toll milling agreement. Fekola Regional is expected to ramp up operations through the end of 2027, and produce in excess of 150,000 ounces of gold per year from 2028 through the mid-2030’s.

At Goose, remediation repairs as a result of the crushing circuit fire have been completed along with Phase 1 of the planned Goose fixed crushing circuit upgrades. Mill throughput is now averaging 3,200 tpd and is expected to remain at those levels until mid-year 2027, at which time the Company expects to complete Phase 2 upgrades in order that the Goose mill operates at an average of 4,000 tonnes per day. B2Gold continues to target gold production of 300,000 ounces of gold per year over the medium-term.

At Masbate, strong gold production results from the first nine months of 2026 are expected to continue through the remainder of the year. As a result, the Company is lowering its 2026 cash operating cost and all-in sustaining cost guidance for Masbate. Ongoing exploration, permitting and mine planning work is underway to evaluate additional opportunities for mine life extensions at current gold prices.

Similarly, at Otjikoto strong gold production results from the first nine months of 2026 are expected to continue throughout the remainder of the year. As a result, the Company is lowering its 2026 all-in sustaining cost guidance for Otjikoto. Work progressed during the quarter at Antelope, four kilometres southwest of Otjikoto, where surface and underground infrastructure is being established to support the development phase of the Antelope deposit.

The Company is well placed to complete its planned capital and exploration activities for 2026, manage its financial commitments and continue to return capital to its shareholders. In addition to paying a dividend at a yield consistent with its peer group, the Company has continued to repurchase shares under its NCIB. The Company has repurchased 41 million shares to date in 2026 for a total of $205 million in cash and expects to repurchase further shares as the year progresses.

Exploration also remains a key focus as B2Gold seeks to both expand its reserve and resource base at its existing operations as well as greenfield opportunities, including strategic investments in prospective junior exploration companies.

The Company's ongoing strategy is to continue to maximize responsible profitable production from its existing mines, maintain a strong financial position, realize the potential increase in gold production from the Company's existing development projects, continue exploration programs across the Company's robust land packages, evaluate new exploration, development and production opportunities and continue to return capital to shareholders.

2026 Guidance

The Company remains on-track to deliver its 2026 production cost guidance. Based on year-to-date cost performance, changes to certain aspects of the 2026 cash operating cost and all-in sustaining cost guidance are reflected in bold in the table below, including lowering cash operating cost guidance per ounce produced for Masbate and lowering all-in sustaining cost guidance for Fekola, Masbate, Otjikoto and the consolidated group. Goose all-in sustaining cost guidance remains unchanged, though full year results are expected to be near the top end of the range.

The list is not exhaustive of the factors that may affect B2Gold's forward-looking statements.

B2Gold's forward-looking statements are based on the applicable assumptions and factors management considers reasonable as of the date hereof, based on the information available to management at such time. These assumptions and factors include, but are not limited to, assumptions and factors related to B2Gold's ability to carry on current and future operations, including: development and exploration activities; the timing, extent, duration and economic viability of such operations, including any mineral resources or reserves identified thereby; the accuracy and reliability of estimates, projections, forecasts, studies and assessments; B2Gold's ability to meet or achieve estimates, projections and forecasts; the availability and cost of inputs; the price and market for outputs, including gold; foreign exchange rates; taxation levels; the timely receipt of necessary approvals or permits; the ability to meet current and future obligations; the ability to obtain timely financing on reasonable terms when required; the current and future social, economic and political conditions; and other assumptions and factors generally associated with the mining industry.

B2Gold's forward-looking statements are based on the opinions and estimates of management and reflect their current expectations regarding future events and operating performance and speak only as of the date hereof. B2Gold does not assume any obligation to update forward-looking statements if circumstances or management's beliefs, expectations or opinions should change other than as required by applicable law. There can be no assurance that forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate, and actual results, performance or achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these forward-looking statements. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that any events anticipated by the forward-looking statements will transpire or occur, or if any of them do, what benefits or liabilities B2Gold will derive therefrom. For the reasons set forth above, undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements. Any financial outlook in this news release is provided for the purpose of providing information about management’s current expectations and plans relating to the future. Readers are cautioned that reliance on such information may not be appropriate for other purposes.

The projected range of all-in sustaining costs includes sustaining capital expenditures, corporate administrative expense, mine-site exploration and evaluation costs and reclamation cost accretion, and exclude the effects of expansionary capital and non-sustaining expenditures. Projected GAAP total production cash costs for the full year would require inclusion of the projected impact of future included and excluded items, including items that are not currently determinable, but may be significant, such as sustaining capital expenditures, reclamation cost accretion. Due to the uncertainty of the likelihood, amount and timing of any such items, B2Gold does not have information available to provide a quantitative reconciliation of projected all-in sustaining costs to a total production cash costs projection. B2Gold believes that this measure represents the total costs of producing gold from current operations, and provides B2Gold and other stakeholders of the Company with additional information about B2Gold’s operational performance and ability to generate cash flows. All-in sustaining costs, as a key performance measure, allows B2Gold to assess its ability to support capital expenditures and to sustain future production from the generation of operating cash flows. This information provides management with the ability to more actively manage capital programs and to make more prudent capital investment decisions.

Non-IFRS Measures

This news release includes certain terms or performance measures commonly used in the mining industry that are not defined under International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"), including "cash operating costs" and "all-in sustaining costs" (or "AISC"). Non-IFRS measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS, and therefore they may not be comparable to similar measures employed by other companies. The projected range of AISC is anticipated to be adjusted to include sustaining capital expenditures, corporate administrative expense, mine-site exploration and evaluation costs and reclamation cost accretion and amortization, and exclude the effects of expansionary capital and non-sustaining expenditures. Projected GAAP total production cash costs for the full year would require inclusion of the projected impact of future included and excluded items, including items that are not currently determinable, but may be significant, such as sustaining capital expenditures, reclamation cost accretion and amortization. Due to the uncertainty of the likelihood, amount and timing of any such items, B2Gold does not have information available to provide a quantitative reconciliation of projected AISC to a total production cash costs projection. B2Gold believes that this measure represents the total costs of producing gold from current operations, and provides B2Gold and other stakeholders of the Company with additional information of B2Gold’s operational performance and ability to generate cash flows. AISC, as a key performance measure, allows B2Gold to assess its ability to support capital expenditures and to sustain future production from the generation of operating cash flows. This information provides management with the ability to more actively manage capital programs and to make more prudent capital investment decisions.

The data presented is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS and should be read in conjunction with B2Gold's consolidated financial statements. Readers should refer to B2Gold's Management Discussion and Analysis, available on the Websites, under the heading "Non-IFRS Measures" for a more detailed discussion of how B2Gold calculates certain such measures and a reconciliation of certain measures to IFRS terms.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Mineral Reserve and Resource Estimates

The disclosure in this news release was prepared in accordance with Canadian standards for the reporting of mineral resource and mineral reserve estimates, which differ in some material respects from the disclosure requirements of United States securities laws. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the terms “mineral reserve”, “proven mineral reserve”, “probable mineral reserve”, “inferred mineral resources,”, “indicated mineral resources,” “measured mineral resources” and “mineral resources” used or referenced in this news release are Canadian mineral disclosure terms as defined in accordance with Canadian National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects (“NI 43-101”) and the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (the “CIM”) - CIM Definition Standards on Mineral Resources and Mineral Reserves, adopted by the CIM Council, as amended (the “CIM Definition Standards”). The definitions of these terms, and other mining terms and disclosures, differ from the definitions of such terms, if any, for purposes of the SEC’s disclosure rules for domestic United State issuers. As a foreign private issuer that is eligible to file reports with the SEC pursuant to the MJDS, B2Gold is not required to provide disclosure on its mineral properties under applicable SEC rules and regulations and provides disclosure under NI 43-101 and the CIM Definition Standards. Accordingly, mineral reserve and mineral resource information and other technical information contained in this news release may not be comparable to similar information disclosed by companies subject to the SEC’s reporting and disclosure requirements for domestic United States issuers.

Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Due to the uncertainty of measured, indicated or inferred mineral resources, these mineral resources may never be upgraded to proven and probable mineral reserves. Investors are cautioned not to assume that any part of mineral deposits in these categories will ever be converted into reserves or recovered. In addition, United States investors are cautioned not to assume that any part or all of B2Gold’s measured, indicated or inferred mineral resources constitute or will be converted into mineral reserves or are or will be economically or legally mineable without additional work.

Historical results or feasibility models presented herein are not guarantees or expectations of future performance. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability. Due to the uncertainty of measured, indicated or inferred mineral resources, these mineral resources may never be upgraded to proven and probable mineral reserves.

NON-IFRS MEASURES

Cash operating costs per gold ounce sold

‘‘Cash operating costs per gold ounce’’ is a common financial performance measure in the gold mining industry but, as non-IFRS measure, it does not have a standardized meaning under IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Management believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors use this information to evaluate our performance and ability to generate cash flow. Accordingly, this measure is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. This measure, along with sales, is considered to be a key indicator of the Company’s ability to generate earnings and cash flow from its mining operations.

Cash cost figures are calculated on a sales basis in accordance with a standard developed by The Gold Institute, which was a worldwide association of suppliers of gold and gold products and included leading North American gold producers. The Gold Institute ceased operations in 2002, but the standard is the accepted standard of reporting cash cost of production in North America. Adoption of the standard is voluntary and the cost measures presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Other companies may calculate these measures differently. Cash operating costs is derived from amounts included in the statement of operations and include post-commercial production mine site operating costs such as mining, processing, smelting, refining, transportation costs, royalties and production taxes, plus an allocation of costs to by-products. The Company uses the income from silver by-product credits as a proxy for the cost to produce the silver. The tables below show a reconciliation of cash operating costs per gold ounce sold to production costs as extracted from the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements on a consolidated and a mine-by-mine basis (dollars in thousands):

Cash operating costs per gold ounce produced

In addition to cash operating costs on a per gold ounce sold basis, the Company also presents cash operating costs on a per gold ounce produced basis. Cash operating costs per gold ounce produced is derived from amounts included in the statement of operations and include post-commercial production mine site operating costs such as mining, processing, smelting, refining, transportation costs, plus an allocation of costs to by-products. The Company uses the income from silver by-product credits as a proxy for the cost to produce the silver.

All-in sustaining costs per gold ounce

In June 2013, the World Gold Council, a non-regulatory association of the world’s leading gold mining companies established to promote the use of gold to industry, consumers and investors, provided guidance for the calculation of the measure “all-in sustaining costs per gold ounce”, but as a non-IFRS measure, it does not have a standardized meaning under IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. The original World Gold Council standard became effective January 1, 2014 with further updates announced on November 16, 2018 which were effective starting January 1, 2019.

Management believes that the all-in sustaining costs per gold ounce measure provides additional insight into the costs of producing gold by capturing all of the expenditures required for the discovery, development and sustaining of gold production and allows the Company to assess its ability to support capital expenditures to sustain future production from the generation of operating cash flows. Management believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors use this information to evaluate the Company's performance and ability to generate cash flow. Accordingly, it is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Adoption of the standard is voluntary and the cost measures presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The Company has applied the principles of the World Gold Council recommendations and has reported all-in sustaining costs on a sales basis. Other companies may calculate these measures differently.

B2Gold defines all-in sustaining costs per ounce as the sum of post-commercial production cash operating costs, royalties and production taxes, capital expenditures and exploration costs that are sustaining in nature, sustaining lease expenditures, corporate general and administrative costs, share-based payment expenses related to restricted share units/deferred share units/performance share units ("RSUs/DSUs/PSUs"), community relations expenditures, reclamation liability accretion and realized (gains) losses on fuel derivative contracts, all divided by the total post-commercial production gold ounces sold to arrive at a per ounce figure.

The tables below show a reconciliation of all-in sustaining costs per ounce to production costs as extracted from the unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements on a consolidated and a mine-by-mine basis (dollars in thousands):

Adjusted net income attributable to shareholders and adjusted earnings per share - basic

"Adjusted net income attributable to shareholders" and "adjusted earnings per share – basic" are non-IFRS measures that do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. The Company defines adjusted net income attributable to shareholders as net income attributable to shareholders of the Company adjusted for non-recurring items and also significant recurring non-cash items. The Company defines adjusted earnings per share – basic as adjusted net income divided by the basic weighted number of common shares outstanding.

Management believes that the presentation of adjusted net income attributable to shareholders and adjusted earnings per share - basic is appropriate to provide additional information to investors regarding items that we do not expect to continue at the same level in the future or that management does not believe to be a reflection of the Company's ongoing operating performance. Management further believes that its presentation of these non-IFRS financial measures provides information that is useful to investors because they are important indicators of the strength of our operations and the performance of our core business. Accordingly, it is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Other companies may calculate this measure differently.

Free cash flow

"Free cash flow" is a non-IFRS measure that does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. The Company defines free cash flow as cash flow provided by operating activities less capital expenditures.

Management believes that the presentation of free cash flow is appropriate to provide additional information to investors on the Company's ability to operate without reliance on additional borrowing. Management further believes that its presentation of this non-IFRS financial measure provides information that is useful to investors because it is an important indicator of the strength of our operations and the performance of our core business. Accordingly, it is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Other companies may calculate this measure differently. These measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS.

Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital

"Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital" is a non-IFRS measure that does not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and, therefore, may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. The Company defines cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital as cash flow provided by operating activities adjusted to add back or remove changes in non-cash working capital, changes in long-term inventory and changes in long-term value added tax receivables.

Management believes that the presentation of cash flow from operating activities before changes in working capital is appropriate to provide additional information to investors on the Company's ability cash flow from its operations without the impact of timing differences from changes in short-term and long-term non-cash working capital items. Management further believes that its presentation of this non-IFRS financial measure provides information that is useful to investors because it is an important indicator of the strength of our operations and the performance of our core business. Accordingly, it is intended to provide additional information and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Other companies may calculate this measure differently. These measures are not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flow from operations as determined under IFRS.
