IAMGOLD (IAG) has been named to the 2026 TSX30, the Toronto Stock Exchange’s annual ranking of top-performing companies based on dividend-adjusted share price performance over three years.

IAMGOLD (NYSE: IAG) has closed the sale of its indirect 35% interest in the Bambadji Joint Venture and its attributable interest in the Bambadji Sud exploration permit in Senegal to Fortuna Mining. The transaction forms part of a broader deal in which Fortuna will pay the joint venture partners, IAMGOLD and Barrick, a total of $200 million in cash at closing plus a 0.5% net smelter return (NSR) royalty, capped on the first 1.75 million ounces of gold produced from the Bambadji permit.
According to IAMGOLD, its attributable share is approximately $70 million in cash proceeds, before Senegalese capital gains taxes and transaction costs, and it will also retain its proportionate share of the NSR royalty. The company said the divestiture monetizes a non-core exploration asset and supports its focus on existing operating and development assets.
