Eldorado Gold is like Occidental Petroleum (OXY), but specializing in gold mining instead of oil and gas. It's an established, significant producer, though not one of the absolute global giants in the mining sector.

• Gold: A precious metal, mined and sold for various industrial and investment purposes.
• Silver: A precious metal, often extracted as a by-product of gold mining and sold for industrial use and investment.
• Copper: A base metal, sometimes produced as a by-product, primarily sold for its extensive industrial applications.

Eldorado Gold (EGO) is a gold mining company involved in the extraction and production of gold, silver, lead, and zinc. Its primary products are gold dore (an unrefined gold-silver alloy), gold concentrates, and other base metal concentrates.

As a producer of commodity products like gold, Eldorado Gold primarily sells to other companies rather than directly to individual consumers. However, due to the nature of the global precious metals and commodities markets, the company typically does not disclose the specific names of its "major customers." Sales are generally made into the open market, or to a limited number of refiners and bullion dealers who then process and distribute the metals further.

The general categories of customers that Eldorado Gold serves include:

• Precious metals refiners, who take the gold dore or concentrates and process them into investment-grade bullion bars.
• Bullion banks and large financial institutions, who act as intermediaries in the global gold market.
• Industrial users or smelters, particularly for base metal concentrates containing gold.

Because gold is a globally traded commodity, its pricing is determined by market rates, and the buyers are typically numerous and do not represent long-term, named client relationships in the same way as in other industries. Therefore, Eldorado Gold's public filings do not list specific customer companies by name or symbol.

Eldorado Gold (EGO) is anticipated to drive future revenue growth over the next two to three years through several key initiatives and market factors:

1. Commissioning and Ramp-up of the Skouries Project: The Skouries copper-gold project in Greece is a primary catalyst for future revenue growth. First production of copper-gold concentrate is targeted for the first quarter of 2026, with commercial production expected in mid-2026. This project is projected to significantly increase both gold and copper output, transforming Eldorado Gold's free cash flow profile.

2. Increased Gold Production Volumes: Eldorado Gold forecasts a substantial increase in overall gold production, with expectations of a 43-44% rise by 2027 compared to 2023/2025 levels. This growth is expected not only from the new Skouries project but also through expansion efforts and operational optimizations at existing mines such as Olympias and Kisladag, aiming to boost production capacity and recovery rates.

3. Introduction of Copper Revenue Stream: The Skouries project will diversify Eldorado Gold’s revenue by adding significant copper production. This new base metal exposure provides an additional avenue for revenue generation and leverages strengthening metal prices.

4. Sustained Strong Gold Prices: Ongoing robust gold prices are consistently highlighted as a significant factor contributing to increased revenue and strong cash flow generation. The company aims to capitalize on these favorable market conditions to enhance its financial performance.

5. Operational Efficiencies and Optimizations at Existing Assets: Eldorado Gold's strategy includes a continued focus on optimizing its current mining operations and improving productivity at assets in Turkiye, Canada, and Greece. These efforts are aimed at increasing recovery rates and overall output, which directly contributes to higher revenue.
