Silvercorp Metals Inc. Earnings Recaps
Q1 2027
Aug 13, 2026
Silvercorp’s shares declined 0.9% following Q1 results as investors digested the impact of significant production declines in key metals and the temporary suspension of operations for safety upgrades, which cloud near-term output despite stable margins and strong metal prices.
Key takeaways
- Revenue increased 70% year-over-year to $139 million, driven by a 135% rise in realized silver prices, averaging above $69/oz after smelter deductions.
- Net income for the quarter was $59.4 million ($0.27 per share), including $17 million of gains from investments and asset sales; adjusted net income was $53.9 million ($0.24 per share), up from $21 million ($0.10) a year ago.
- Production fell noticeably: silver down 17%, lead and zinc each down 15%, while gold production increased 24%. The declines reflect lower head grades and dilution effects, as well as the temporary halt in Chinese operations to implement mandated safety upgrades.
- Operating costs increased modestly, with Ying’s production costs rising 5% year-over-year due to RMB depreciation; cash costs per silver ounce nearly doubled to $2.45 from $1.26, in part owing to lower silver volumes sold and higher government taxes.
- Capital expenditures focused on mine development projects across China and Ecuador, including the construction of a third mill and ongoing work at the El Domo project, with full production impact expected in future quarters.
Q4 2026
May 31, 2026
Silvercorp’s shares rose modestly by 2.0% following Q4 and full year fiscal 2026 results that showed strong revenue and cash flow gains, though the market’s limited reaction suggests investors may be cautious on the outlook or incremental growth prospects.
Key takeaways
- Q4 revenue nearly doubled year-over-year to $147 million, driven primarily by a 183% increase in realized silver prices averaging just above $78/oz.
- Adjusted Q4 net income rose to $59.3 million ($0.27/share) versus $14.7 million ($0.07/share) last year; reported net income was negatively impacted by a $60 million noncash derivative liability charge.
- Fiscal 2026 revenue grew 47% to $438 million; adjusted net income more than doubled to $151 million ($0.69/share), with cash flow from operations increasing 124% to nearly $311 million.
- Production volumes were mixed: gold rose 16%, while silver, lead, and zinc fell 2%, 3%, and 7%, respectively, reflecting higher dilution and increased shrinkage mining.
- Cost control showed gains, with Q4 production cost per tonne down 8% at the Ying mine; however, all-in sustaining costs increased 11% quarter-over-quarter due to higher taxes and sustaining capital.

Feb 10, 2026
Silvercorp reported exceptional Q3 fiscal 2026 results, with revenue soaring 51% year-over-year to $126 million, bolstered by a significant rise in silver prices and robust cash flow growth.
