VANCOUVER, British Columbia, March 25, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- B2Gold Corp.

The stock fell against a backdrop of tumbling gold and silver prices and diminishing confidence in the sector.

B2Gold is positioned for a stronger 2027, following a transitional 2026 with high costs and ramp-up at the Goose mine. BTG's valuation remains well below peers, despite a strong balance sheet, diversified operations, and imminent cash flow acceleration post-gold prepay expiry in June 2026. 2026 guidance appears weak due to elevated AISC and lower production, but these are transitional, with cost normalization and higher output expected in 2027.

B2Gold reported strong Q4 2025 revenue and margin growth, but I now rate the stock 'HOLD' due to technical and geopolitical risks. BTG forecasts 2026 production of 820,000–970,000 ounces, with growth driven by Goose mine ramp-up and potential Fekola Regional permit. The stock trades at a bargain 7.5x 2026E EPS and a PEG of 0.56, well below sector medians, supporting long-term upside potential.

B2Gold remains undervalued, but I downgrade from Strong Buy to Buy due to a messy Q4 and challenging 2026 guidance. Q4 saw production near guidance, but higher-than-expected AISC ($1,754/oz) and late Fekola shipments impacted results; the balance sheet and buybacks remain solid. 2026 AISC guidance ($2,400–$2,580/oz) appears alarming but is inflated by one-off factors; 2027 should see normalization as Goose ramps and prepay obligations end.

BTG Q4 EPS misses estimates, but revenues soar 111% y/y on higher gold prices and output as production jump 63% y/y.
