Gold rally and major Laos resource upgrade drive Chifeng Gold higher

Kinross Gold Corporation (KGC)

Q3 2026
▼3▲1

Kinross cuts output, costs rise, but returns more cash

  • Production forecast cut ~8% for 2026-2027 Kinross lowered its 2026 and 2027 production outlook by about 8% due to harsh weather and processing problems at La Coipa in Chile and slower mining at Round Mountain in Nevada. This reduces the amount of gold Kinross expects to sell, which directly lowers future revenue and earnings, pushing the stock down.

    This is the main new negative event that caused an 11.6% share drop and explains why KGC is moving.

  • All-in sustaining costs rising to ~$1,730/oz in 2026 Kinross expects its all-in sustaining costs to climb to about $1,730 per ounce in 2026, up from $1,571 in 2025, due to higher fuel, royalty and labor costs. Rising costs squeeze profit margins, meaning Kinross keeps less money from each ounce sold, which weighs on the stock.

    Cost inflation is a key new headwind that compresses margins and pressures the share price.

  • Capital return target raised to 50% of free cash flow Kinross increased its 2026 shareholder payout target to 50% of free cash flow from 40% and raised its dividend by 14%. Returning more cash through dividends and buybacks rewards investors directly and signals confidence in future cash generation, which supports the stock price.

    This is a new positive action that offsets some negative news and shows management's confidence.

  • Fed rate hike and gold selloff hit mining stocks The Federal Reserve raised interest rates on September 16, pushing bond yields to their highest since 2008 and triggering a $264 billion selloff in mining stocks. Gold producers lost $79 billion, with Kinross falling 21.3%. Higher rates make gold less attractive and strengthen the dollar, pressuring gold prices and mining shares.

    This macro event explains the broader sector decline and KGC's sharp drop in September.
