Ryan King, VP of Corporate Development at Equinox Gold, joins the program to discuss the company's "transformational" shift in 2025, which saw net debt plummet from over $1.5B to just $75 million following strategic asset divestments. The company is currently focusing on reaching nameplate capacity at its two cornerstone Canadian operations, Valentine and Greenstone, while targeting a 2026 production range of 700,000 to 800,000 ounces. This robust balance sheet has allowed Equinox to initiate an inaugural quarterly dividend and a share buyback program, opening the stock to a broader mandate of growth and yield-focused investors. Furthermore, the discussion explores organic growth potential and the upcoming technical reports for the self-funded Valentine Phase II expansion.
