Revenue Growth: Major Drilling reported first quarter revenue of $226.6 million, up 20.8% sequentially and 19.3% year-over-year, with growth driven by strength in South and Central America, particularly Peru.
Margin Pressure: Adjusted gross margin fell to 25.2% from 28.9% last year due to competitive pressures in North America and mobilization costs from new projects.
Profit Decline: Net earnings were $10.1 million ($0.12 per share), down from $15.9 million ($0.19 per share) a year ago, with EBITDA also lower at $32.1 million.
Strong LatAm Outlook: Management anticipates ongoing momentum in Peru and South America, with Peru's revenue base continuing to grow following the Explomin acquisition.
North America Mixed: Activity is improving in Canada, but the U.S. market remains soft, especially among junior miners, and permitting improvements have yet to significantly impact drilling.
CapEx Discipline: CapEx was lower than expected at $14.4 million, with management not expecting to exceed prior full-year CapEx guidance.
Commodity Mix: Gold (41%) and copper (34%) continue to dominate revenue, with iron ore at 11%; critical minerals contribute but remain a small portion of the business.
Guidance: Management expects revenue momentum to continue into Q2, citing strong commodity prices and a robust project pipeline, especially in South America.
