West Africa-focused gold miner reports record quarterly free cash flow of $613 million and flags returns may far exceed minimum commitment Endeavour Mining PLC (LSE:EDV, TSX:EDV, OTCQX:EDVMF, FRA:6E2) has signalled it could more than double its minimum shareholder returns commitment for 2026, with record cash generation and a surging gold price combining to put the FTSE 100-listed gold producer in an enviably strong financial position. The company, which operates a portfolio of mines across West Africa, said that at prevailing gold prices it expects total returns to shareholders to significantly exceed the $1 billion minimum dividend underpinning its 2026-2028 programme, with the potential to more than double it.
