Americas Gold and Silver (USAS) grows Q2 revenue 71% and settles $76M obligations
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
Americas Gold and Silver Corporation reported Q2 2026 net revenue of $46 million, up 71% from Q2 2025, and YTD 2026 revenue of $114 million, a 126% increase. Consolidated silver production was 665,000 ounces in the quarter and 1.5 million ounces year-to-date, with silver-equivalent production of about 801,000 ounces in Q2.
Operations were driven by strong performance at Cosalá, where silver output rose 26% to 337,000 ounces and cash costs fell to $16.91 per ounce. At the Galena Complex, Phase 2 of the No. 3 Shaft upgrade was completed, boosting hoisting capacity roughly 150%, though Q2 silver production there declined to 328,000 ounces and cash costs rose to $35.26 per ounce amid a planned shutdown and a minor electrical fire.
The company settled approximately $76 million of variable silver and gold delivery obligations via a mix of metal deliveries and share issuances, simplifying its capital structure and increasing leverage to silver prices. Despite improved margins, Q2 2026 still showed a net loss of $5.0 million, though adjusted EBITDA turned positive at $12.0 million. Management reaffirmed 2026 guidance of 3.2–3.6 million silver ounces at an AISC of $30–$35 per ounce sold.

HIGHLIGHTED BY STRONG OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE AT COSALÁ AND
UPGRADE PROJECT PROGRESS AT THE GALENA COMPLEX
TORONTO, ONTARIO - August 14, 2026 - Americas Gold and Silver Corporation (TSX: USA) (NYSE American: USAS) ("Americas" or the "Company) a North American producer of silver and other critical minerals supporting the growth of artificial intelligence ("AI"), electrification, national security, and advanced manufacturing, reports consolidated financial and operational results for the quarter ended June 30, 2026.
This earnings release should be read in conjunction with the Company's Management's Discussion and Analysis, Financial Statements and Notes to Financial Statements for the corresponding period, which have been posted on the Americas Gold and Silver Corporation SEDAR+ profile at www.sedarplus.ca, and on its EDGAR profile at www.sec.gov, and which are also available on the Company's website at www.americas-gold.com. All figures are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted.
Highlights
- Consolidated net revenue increased to $46 million for Q2-2026 or 71% increase compared to $27.0 million for Q2-2025, primarily as a result of higher realized prices.
- YTD-2026 revenues of $114 million increased by 126% compared to YTD-2025 revenues of $50.5 million. The Company is on a strong growth trajectory, having generated nearly the equivalent of its entire fiscal 2025 revenue in the first half of 2026.
- Consolidated silver production of 665,000 ounces was achieved during the quarter
- As previously announced, the Galena Phase 2 shaft upgrade program was extended by an additional two weeks to complete additional work. Also previously disclosed, silver production during the quarter was impacted due to a minor electrical fire in June, deferring access to a planned higher grade stope into the third quarter. Minor repairs in the affected area have been completed.
- Consolidated silver equivalent ounces1 produced was approximately 801,000 ounces (a 5% decrease compared to Q2-2025), including 2.3 million pounds of lead, 0.9 million pounds of copper, and 97,000 pounds of antimony.
- Consolidated silver equivalent ounces for the first half of 2026 was approximately 1.7 million ounces (a 2% increase compared to the first half of 2025), including 4.2 million pounds of lead, 1.8 million pounds of copper, and 234,000 pounds of antimony.
- Remain on-track to achieve full-year guidance of 3.2 to 3.6 million silver ounces, with production expected to be weighted to the second half of the year as the ramp up of operations in Idaho continues.
- Strong operational performance at Cosalá, delivering 337,000 ounces of silver during the quarter which represents a 26% year over year increase when compared to Q2-2025.
1 This is a supplementary or non-GAAP financial measure or ratio. See "Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures" section for further information.
-
- Strong production was driven by higher silver grades across fewer tonnes as the company enters the heart of the orebody at EC120, its flagship operation at Cosalá.
- Completed Phase 2 of the Galena No. 3 Shaft modernization program, increasing total hoisting capacity by approximately 150% and skipping payloads by 40%, supporting higher underground mining rates and future production growth.
- Settled approximately $76 million of variable silver and gold debt obligations strengthening the balance sheet, significantly reducing future cash debt-service costs and increasing exposure to silver prices. This settlement eliminates the impact of changes in valuation of these debt instruments due to gold and silver price changes on the income statement prospectively.
- Cash and cash equivalents balance of $88.9 million and working capital1 of $48.6 million as of June 30, 2026, in line with expectations as the Company continues to deploy capital into its consolidated revitalization and growth plans, and the settlement of the above noted variable future debt obligations.
- Cost of sales per silver equivalent ounce sold1, cash costs1 and all-in sustaining costs1 per silver ounce sold averaged $32.05, $25.68 and $40.63, respectively, in Q2-2026.
- For the first half of 2026, cost of sales per silver equivalent ounce sold1, cash costs1 and all-in sustaining costs1 ("AISC") per silver ounce sold averaged $28.33, $24.48 and $36.92, respectively. The first half was in line with plan and on track to achieve AISC guidance of $30.00 - $35.00 per silver ounce sold.
- Net loss of $5.0 million or $0.02 per share for Q2-2026 (net loss of $15.0 million or $0.06 per share for Q2-2025) primarily attributable to higher net revenue and higher gain on fair value of metals contract liabilities, offset by higher foreign exchange loss, higher loss on derivatives, and higher income tax expense.
- Adjusted earnings1 for Q2-2026 was loss of $0.9 million or $0.00 per share (adjusted loss for Q2-2025 was $12.1 million or $0.02 per share) and Adjusted EBITDA1 for Q2-2026 was $12.0 million or $0.04 per share (adjusted EBITDA loss for Q2-2025 was $4.1 million, or $0.05 per share) primarily due to higher net revenue from increased realized silver prices during the period.
Paul Andre Huet, Chairman and CEO, commented: "Our team delivered another quarter of meaningful progress, underscored by strong revenue growth, and continued operational momentum across both Galena and Cosalá. Consolidated net revenue rose 71% year-over-year to $46 million for Q2, and we generated $114 million in the first half alone, nearly matching our full-year 2025 revenue in just six months. These results were achieved despite temporary impacts from the extension of the 14-day planned shutdown period during the quarter for the Phase 2 shaft upgrade and a minor electrical fire at Galena, demonstrating the resilience and commitment of our workforce. I remain deeply proud of the safety culture that continues to define our operations, and of the team's ability to execute through challenges while maintaining focus on long-term value creation."
At Cosalá, our team continues to deliver excellent results, achieving a 26% increase in silver production year-over-year to approximately 337,000 ounces. The successful commercial production from EC120, strong recoveries, and stable grades all contributed to a robust quarter. Cash costs at Cosalá decreased meaningfully to under $17 per ounce, reflecting higher by-product credits and strong operational execution. These results demonstrate the strength of Cosalá and the value of having a diversified production base with multiple opportunities for future growth."
At Galena, the completion of the No. 3 Shaft modernization marks a transformational milestone for the Complex and establishes the infrastructure needed to support the next phase of growth. The upgrades increased hoisting capacity by approximately 150% and expanded skipping payloads by 40%, unlocking the throughput required to support higher mining rates and future production growth. These improvements, combined with modernized mining methods, long-hole stoping advancements, fleet upgrades, and new communication infrastructure, are already driving efficiencies underground."
Looking ahead, we remain firmly on track to achieve our 2026 production guidance of 3.2 to 3.6 million ounces of silver at an AISC of $30 to $35 per ounce sold. At the same time, we are investing in the next generation of growth with the largest drilling campaign in Company history underway at both Galena and Cosalá. We also continue to progress with the design and construction of our processing facility alongside our JV partner, US Antimony, positioning Americas Gold and Silver as a key contributor to the U.S. critical minerals supply chain.
We believe the Company is entering an important period of growth and transformation. We have strengthened the underlying operations, expanded our production capabilities, and are building a pipeline of opportunities designed to create long-term value for our shareholders. I am encouraged by the momentum across all areas of the business and look forward to updating our stakeholders as we unlock further value throughout the year."
Consolidated Production
Consolidated silver production of approximately 665,000 ounces during Q2-2026 was slightly lower than Q2-2025 production due to lower production and grade at the Galena Complex related to the shut down for Phase 2 shaft upgrades and a minor electrical fire, offset by higher production at the Cosalá Operations. Year-to-date Q2-2026 silver production was 1.5 million ounces, in line with the Company's full year guidance of 3.2 to 3.6 million ounces and growth plans.
Consolidated attributable cash costs and AISC for Q2-2026 were $25.68 per silver ounce and $40.63 per silver ounce, respectively. Year-to-date Q2-2026 silver cash costs were $24.48 per silver ounce and $36.92 per silver ounce, respectively, and on track to achieve full year 2026 cost guidance of $30 -$35 per silver ounce sold.
Galena Complex
During Q2-2026, the Company continued to make significant advances at the Galena Complex with the completion of Phase 2 of the No. 3 Shaft modernization program, significantly increasing hoisting capacity. The Galena Complex produced approximately 328,000 ounces of silver in Q2-2026 compared to approximately 420,000 ounces of silver in Q2-2025 partially due to the impact the Phase 2 shaft upgrades and a minor electrical fire at Galena that briefly interrupted production. The mine also produced 2.3 million pounds of lead in Q2-2026 along with 0.1 million pounds of copper and 0.1 million pounds of antimony. Lead by-product production levels may vary in the short term as mining activities focus on increasing higher silver grade, tetrahydrate ore and supporting development continues to be advanced. Cash costs per ounce of silver sold increased to $35.26/oz in Q2-2026 from $23.39/oz in Q2-2025, primarily due to decreases in silver sold and increased use of contractors as operations scale in Idaho.
The Galena Complex remains on track with its operational growth plan in the areas of underground development and long-hole stoping; upgrading the underground fleet; advancing the shaft upgrades; and mine modernization, and communication. The previously announced (see Americas news release dated June 25, 2026) Phase 1 and Phase 2 upgrades to the No. 3 Shaft have improved hoisting capacity, increasing throughput from roughly 42 short tons per hour ("stph") to sustained rates of 85 stph, with peak performance reaching 105 stph-a 150% improvement. Phase 2 improvements centered on installing a new braking system to match the higher speeds enabled by the Phase 1 motor upgrade, along with mechanical, electrical, and control-system enhancements completed during a slightly extended shutdown. Commissioning results showed hoisting rates more than doubling historical performance, and further optimization-such as guide alignment, lighter skips, and in-shaft communication upgrades-will be completed during routine downtime without interrupting operations.
Phase 1 previously increased skip payload from 5 to 7 tons and added a 2,250-hp hoist motor, with a second motor available as a critical spare to strengthen reliability. With both phases complete, the upgraded shaft is expected to deliver 1,350 tons per day of hoisting capacity, a roughly 50% increase, while providing flexibility for future growth across the Galena Complex. The Phase 2 investment totaled approximately US$1.1 million, representing a highly efficient capital outlay that materially enhances throughput and long-term production capability.
Cosalá Operations
Silver production increased in Q2-2026 by 26% to approximately 337,000 ounces of silver compared to approximately 269,000 ounces of silver in Q2-2025, primarily due to higher silver grades and recoveries offset by lower tonnages during the period. Effective January 1, 2026, commercial production was declared for EC120, which has higher silver grades and recoveries based on its mineralogy compared to the zinc-lead-silver San Rafael mine orebody. Mining has ceased at the San Rafael Main Central orebody which caused base metals production of zinc and lead to drop in fiscal 2026 though continues in the higher-grade silver Upper Zone orebody.
Cash costs per silver ounce sold decreased during Q2-2026 to $16.91 per ounce from $30.61 per ounce in Q2-2025, due primarily to higher by-product credits from copper during the period.
Settlement of Silver and Gold Delivery Obligations
During the second quarter, the Company settled its remaining precious metals deliver obligations under existing agreements with Mr. Eric Sprott ("Sprott") and Royal Gold Inc. ("Royal Gold"). On May 20, 2026, the Company settled its remaining obligation to deliver ounces of silver to Sprott in exchange for the issuance of 7,956,696 common shares. On June 10, 2026, the Company also settled its remaining obligation to deliver ounces of gold to Royal Gold through a combination of the delivery of 5,000 ounces of gold and the issuance of 2,652,532 common shares.
These transactions fully settled the Company's remaining precious metals delivery obligations, eliminating impacts to mark-to-market adjustments in instrument valuations due to changes in forward gold and silver prices, simplified and strengthened its capital structure and increased its exposure to future silver prices. Further details regarding the transactions, and their financial statement impact, are described in Notes 9 and 10 to the Company's condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2026, available on the Company's website and under the Company's profile on sedarplus.com.
Outlook
Americas' consolidated production guidance for 2026 is a range between 3.2 million and 3.6 million ounces of silver at an AISC range of $30 to $35 per ounce sold. The Company remains on track to deliver on its planned production guidance.

Non-GAAP and Other Financial Measures
The Company has included certain non-GAAP financial and other measures to supplement the Company's consolidated financial statements, which are presented in accordance with IFRS, including the following:
- average realized silver, zinc and lead prices;
- cost of sales/Ag Eq oz produced;
- cash costs/Ag oz produced;
- all-in sustaining costs/Ag oz produced;
- working capital;
- EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted earnings; and
- silver equivalent production (Ag Eq).
Management uses these measures, together with measures determined in accordance with IFRS, internally to better assess performance trends and understands that a number of investors, and others who follow the Company's performance, also assess performance in this manner. These non-GAAP and other financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared in accordance with IFRS. Non-GAAP and other financial measures do not have any standardized meaning prescribed under IFRS, and therefore they may differ from methods used by other companies with similar descriptions. Management's determination of the components of non-GAAP financial measures and other financial measures are evaluated on a periodic basis influenced by new items and transactions, a review of investor uses and new regulations as applicable. Any changes to the measures are duly noted and retrospectively applied as applicable. Subtotals and per unit measures may not calculate based on amounts presented in the following tables due to rounding.
Average Realized Silver, Copper, Lead, Zinc and Antimony Prices
The Company uses the financial measures "average realized price" because it understands that in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors and analysts use this information to evaluate the Company's performance vis-à-vis average market prices of metals for the period. The presentation of average realized metal prices is not meant to be a substitute for the revenue information presented in accordance with IFRS, but rather should be evaluated in conjunction with such IFRS measure.
Average realized metal prices represent the sale price of the underlying metal excluding unrealized mark-to-market gains and losses on provisional pricing and concentrate treatment and refining charges. Average realized silver, copper, lead, zinc and antimony prices are calculated as the revenue related to each of the metals sold, e.g. revenue from sales of silver divided by the quantity of ounces sold.

Cash Costs and Cash Costs/Ag Oz Sold
The Company uses the financial measures "Cash Costs" and "Cash Costs/Ag Oz Sold" in accordance with measures widely reported in the silver mining industry, as developed by the World Gold Council, as a benchmark for performance measurement and because it understands that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS, certain investors and analysts use this information to evaluate the Company's underlying cash costs of operations. However, there is no assurance that the Company's reporting of these non-GAAP measures are similar to those reported by other mining companies.
Cash costs are determined on a mine-by-mine basis and include mine site operating costs such as: mining, processing, administration, production taxes and royalties which are not based on sales or taxable income calculations. Non-cash charges and other indirect mining costs consist of adjustments to non-cash related charges to cost of sales including non-cash remuneration incurred during the period.

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted Earnings
The Company uses the financial measures "EBITDA", "adjusted EBITDA" and "adjusted earnings" as indicators of the Company's ability to generate operating cash flows to fund working capital needs, service debt obligations, and fund exploration and evaluation, and capital expenditures. These financial measures exclude the impact of certain items and therefore is not necessarily indicative of operating profit or cash flows from operating activities as determined under IFRS. Other companies may calculate these financial measures differently. Additional details regarding weighted average number of common shares outstanding are disclosed in Notes 16 to the Company's condensed interim consolidated financial statements.
EBITDA is net income (loss) under IFRS before depletion and amortization, interest and financing expense, and income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA further excludes other non-cash items such as accretion expenses, impairment charges, and other fair value gains and losses.
