## Minestarters Atlas summary

Jaguar Mining reported strong second quarter 2026 financial and operational results, driven by increased gold production from the Turmalina Mine's ramp-up and continued solid performance at the Pilar Mine. Consolidated gold production rose to 13,057 ounces, contributing to a 43% increase in revenue to $51.4 million and a net income of $15.5 million. The company also generated $6.6 million in free cash flow, supporting its exploration programs and project advancements in Minas Gerais, Brazil.

Reasoning: Jaguar Mining delivered strong Q2 2026 results, marked by increased gold production from the Turmalina Mine's ramp-up and consistent performance at the Pilar Mine. This led to substantial revenue growth, a return to net income, and positive free cash flow, despite higher per-ounce costs compared to the prior year.

- Positive factor: Increased gold production \(19% YoY\)

- Positive factor: Significant revenue growth \(43% YoY\)

- Positive factor: Return to net income \($15.5M vs loss in Q2 2025\)

- Positive factor: Strong Adjusted EBITDA \($30.7M\)

- Positive factor: Positive free cash flow \($6.6M\)

- Positive factor: Successful ramp-up of Turmalina Mine

- Positive factor: Continued strong performance at Pilar Mine

- Positive factor: Higher average realized gold price \($4,391/oz\)

- Positive factor: Increased drilling activity \(11,203m in Q2\)

- Negative factor: Increased cash operating costs per ounce \($1,834/oz vs $1,190/oz in Q2 2025\)

- Negative factor: Increased all-in sustaining costs per ounce \($2,840/oz vs $1,814/oz in Q2 2025\)
