- We are poised to increase gold production to 1.0 - 1.1 million ounces in 2010, by building and exploring our own mines.
- By year-end 2010, we expect to reach between 20 and 21 million ounces of gold in reserves through exploration on existing properties.
- Our operations are located in mining-friendly regions with low political risk and long-term mining camp potential.
- Agnico-Eagle is one of the lowest-cost producers in the gold industry, allowing the payment of consecutive annual dividends since 1981.
- Our longstanding policy regarding non-hedging ensures that shareholders always participate fully in rising gold prices.
- We maintain a solid financial position, have full funding for our growth and maintain a low number of shares outstanding, putting us in a strong position to continue to build per share value.
