Agnico Eagle's mission is to run a high quality, easy to understand business, that generates superior long-term per share returns for our shareholders, creates a great place to work for our employees, and that is a leading contributor to the well-being of the communities in which we operate.
Our primary objective is to build a high-quality business focused on solid execution that drives growth in cash flow per share. Our strategy has been consistent for many years to minimize financial and political risk while using our broad range of technical skills and experience to build long-life, manageable operations in recognized mining regions. This strategy has worked well for us and our owners over our 58 years, and we see no need to change our approach.
"With continued strong operating performance, favourable local currency foreign exchange rates, and near-term opportunities to increase production at several of our mines, we remain well-positioned to manage the current price volatility in the gold market. In these challenging times, we will continue to focus on reducing costs and we will remain measured in our approach to managing and growing our business.
