Silvercorp Metals Inc. (TSX: SVM) (NYSE American: SVM) reported financial and operating results for its second quarter of fiscal 2027 ended Sept. 30, 2026. Revenue declined 13% year over year to $72.1 million, primarily reflecting reduced production during safety improvement work at the Ying Mining District, partially offset by higher realized silver and gold prices. Net income attributable to shareholders totaled $5.3 million, or $0.02 per share, compared with a net loss of $11.5 million in the prior-year quarter. Adjusted earnings declined to $18.4 million from $22.6 million, while operating cash flow increased 60% to $62.7 million, including a $43.9 million drawdown from Wheaton. The company produced approximately 900,000 ounces of silver and 1,371 ounces of gold during the quarter.
Silvercorp ended the quarter with $383.7 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, along with an equity investment portfolio valued at $428 million. Capital expenditures totaled $50.5 million as the company advanced mine construction and safety improvements. Major safety work at Ying has been substantially completed and operations have been approved to resume, while production at the GC Mine remains suspended, with a targeted restart in November 2027. The company is also targeting November 2027 for initial production at its El Domo project in Ecuador following weather-related construction delays.
The results highlight Silvercorp's ability to generate strong cash flow despite operational challenges. The 60% increase in operating cash flow, driven partly by the Wheaton drawdown, underscores the company's financial resilience. The resumption of operations at Ying is a critical development, as it is a key production asset. The company's substantial cash position and equity portfolio provide flexibility for future growth initiatives and potential acquisitions, aligning with its strategy to create shareholder value through free cash flow generation and organic growth.
