Q2 reporting begins July 23 with NEM after the bell. We expect margins to moderate on the

recent gold pullback and higher energy costs, but remain near historically high levels.

Wayne Lam, CFA^

416 983 9588 We remain positive on the sector, as broader central bank demand provides structural

wayne.lam@tdsecurities.com support, despite a stronger USD and ETF outflows in the short term. We have made minor

updates to our deck reflecting the recent pullback.

Gold pulls back in Q2, but remains historically elevated: Gold weakened into the quarter,derick.ma@tdsecurities.com

ending off at $4,512/oz, down 7.5% from Q1's $4,875 average. The Iran-US conflict remains a

USD, as well as resulting in regional official sector sales as some countries look to defend their

currencies and/or fund defense spending. Longer term, we believe the factors that have driven

jennifer.mao@tdsecurities.com outlook, modestly lowering our 2026 and 2027 gold price assumptions (Fig.1).
