Americas Gold and Silver Misses Q3 Revenue as USAS Falls 15%

Americas Gold and Silver Corp. (AMEX:USAS) fell 15.54% to $2.50 on Friday 14 November 2026 after the miner reported fiscal third-quarter 2026 results that paired record silver output with a revenue shortfall. The stock traded between $2.48 and $2.74 during the session, as of 12:35 UTC today. Revenue rose 68% year over year to $51.4 million but landed well below the $68.37 million consensus estimate, while the company posted an adjusted loss of 2 cents per share against a 6-cent loss a year earlier.

Context — Why Did USAS Fall Despite Record Silver Production?

The gap between the production headline and the revenue line is the core of the session's move. Silver production climbed 5% year over year to a record 800,458 ounces, the highest quarterly figure in the company's 28-year history, yet sales revenue came in roughly $17 million short of what analysts had modelled.

The comparable the company itself supplies is the year-earlier quarter. Revenue of $51.4 million against a prior-year base implies growth of 68%, and the adjusted loss per share halved from 6 cents to 2 cents. Net loss narrowed to $5.6 million from $16.5 million. Adjusted EBITDA rose to $9.3 million from $1.9 million.

Management attributed the EBITDA improvement mainly to higher realized silver prices. That is the catalyst chain: stronger metal prices lifted margins and cash generation, but not enough volume reached the revenue line to satisfy consensus.

Costs sit above the metal's spot range on a per-ounce basis. Cash costs averaged $29.66 per silver ounce sold and all-in sustaining costs reached $42.94 per ounce. Those figures frame how thin the margin is between realized prices and the cost of pulling an ounce out of the ground.

Data — What the Q3 2026 Numbers Show

The quarter's operating detail splits cleanly between volume and value.

Metric	Q3 2026	Year Earlier
Revenue	$51.4 million	up 68% y/y
Adjusted EPS	-$0.02	-$0.06
Net loss	$5.6 million	$16.5 million
Adjusted EBITDA	$9.3 million	$1.9 million
Silver production	800,458 oz	up 5% y/y

The Cosalá operations produced 415,879 ounces, up 28%, supported by higher grades at the EC120 mine. Silver-equivalent production, which folds in lead, copper and antimony output, reached 936,870 ounces.

The balance sheet closed September with $63.3 million in cash and $113 million in available liquidity.

On the market data side, USAS printed a session range of $2.48 to $2.74 before settling at $2.50, down 15.54% on the day. The close sits near the low of that range, which places the stock at the bottom of its intraday band rather than mid-range.

The company did not disclose realized silver prices per ounce sold, nor a segment-level revenue breakdown for Cosalá and Galena, in the figures reported.

Analysis — What the Miss Means for Silver Miners and USAS Holders

The read-through for silver-exposed equities is that production records do not automatically convert into earnings beats when the sales mix, timing or cost base works against the headline. USAS delivered on ounces and on cost control relative to its own prior year, yet the revenue line missed by a wide margin. That combination points to a gap between what was mined and what was sold or priced during the quarter.

A counter-argument deserves weight. Adjusted EBITDA nearly quintupled year over year, from $1.9 million to $9.3 million, and the net loss shrank by roughly two-thirds. On a cash-generation basis the business improved materially. Investors selling the revenue miss are trading the top line against a bottom line that moved in the opposite direction.

The AISC figure of $42.94 per ounce is the constraint to watch. Guidance now points to full-year AISC near the upper end of the $30 to $35 per-ounce forecast, which is a meaningful overshoot of the range the company previously set. Cash costs of $29.66 per ounce sit below that band, so the spread between cash cost and AISC reflects sustaining capital and development spending rather than extraction cost alone.

Positioning reflects the tension. The 15.54% decline on elevated volume suggests holders who bought the production narrative are reducing exposure, while the liquidity position of $113 million gives the company room to fund the Galena upgrade without immediate financing pressure.

Outlook — What to Watch for USAS Into Year-End

The company expects full-year silver production near the lower end of its 3.2 million to 3.6 million-ounce forecast, and AISC near the upper end of its $30 to $35 per-ounce guidance. Both ends of that guidance range are now the reference points for the next quarterly update.

The operational catalyst is the Galena upgrade. Improved hoisting capabilities have accelerated mine development to support future mining in silver-copper zones, and management expects these improvements to support production growth. Whether that shows up as volume or as cost relief is the open question.

The exploration angle is the second lever. Chairman and CEO Paul Andre Huet said some newly discovered zones at Cosalá contain silver grades four to five times higher than previously modelled, describing the results as world-class. He said that in more than 35 years of mining he had not seen widths followed by grades like these. Conversion of those zones into reserves is the item that would change the production profile.

On the tape, $2.48 is the session low and the nearest reference point; $2.74 marks the top of Friday's range.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did Americas Gold and Silver stock fall after record production?

Revenue of $51.4 million missed the $68.37 million consensus estimate even as silver output hit a record 800,458 ounces. The market priced the top-line shortfall over the production milestone. The adjusted loss of 2 cents per share was narrower than the 6-cent loss a year earlier, so the decline reflects expectations rather than deterioration in the underlying business.

What does the Cosalá discovery mean for future silver output?

Cosalá produced 415,879 ounces in the quarter, up 28%, helped by higher grades at the EC120 mine. Huet said newly discovered zones carry silver grades four to five times higher than previously modelled. Those grades are not yet in the production forecast, so any output benefit depends on how quickly the zones are developed and mined.

How does USAS guidance compare with what it just delivered?

Management guided full-year silver production to the lower end of 3.2 million to 3.6 million ounces and AISC to the upper end of $30 to $35 per ounce. The quarter's AISC of $42.94 per ounce sits above that range, so hitting the guided figure for the full year implies cost improvement in the remaining period or a different mix of ounces sold.

Bottom Line

Record ounces could not offset a $17 million revenue miss, and USAS holders paid for it with a 15.54% decline.
