There are milestone moments in every company’s history. Moments when teamwork and performance converge, and the scale of what has been accomplished becomes clear. On April 7, 2026, OceanaGold achieved one of those moments as we officially listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

On the morning of April 7, we rang the opening and first trade bells and our stock symbol (NYSE: OGC), appeared on screens across Wall Street and beyond. Behind that excitement, laughter and cheering, were decades of effort, and the collective contributions of thousands of people across our business. 

“It was a very proud moment standing on that balcony and ringing the bell on behalf of everyone at OceanaGold. This milestone belongs to our people who drive our culture and our success. This is truly an exciting moment but also the beginning of what we hope is a great journey with increased access for new shareholders,” says Brian Martin, Senior Vice President, Business Development and Investor Relations. 

Why our New York Stock Exchange Listing Matters

“Listing on the NYSE reflects the business we have built: one that’s financially strong and operationally focused, with a track record of value creation,” explains Brian.

"For us, this listing expands our access to investors in the US, enhances trading liquidity, and positions us alongside many of our peers. It also supports the fifth pillar of our corporate strategy, which is to have a premium rating with the investment community.”

“For investors, this listing provides an opportunity to participate in our success.  We celebrated record financial performance and shareholder returns in 2025 and are guiding to an even-stronger 2026,” says Brian. “This is driven by higher production, lower costs, and prudent capital allocation, positioning us to continue generating strong free cash flow, while leveraging gold prices that are still meaningfully higher than last year.”

In 2026, we expect to produce between 520,000-590,000 ounces of gold – that’s 12% more than last year (at the mid-points), and we expect to do that at lower all-in sustaining costs as compared to last year. We have tripled our dividend and doubled our share buybacks this year, resulting in up to US$430M of capital returns.  That’s a 112% increase year-over-year.

Brian explains that the NYSE listing also provides investors with unique exposure to gold produced in the US.  “Almost half of our total company gold production in 2026 is expected to come from our Haile Gold Mine in South Carolina (based on mid-point of guidance).  Haile is the primary driver of our near-term production growth and is one of the largest gold mines in the United States.”

Our People at the Centre of the Moment

Teams across our operations and offices gathered to watch the ceremony. From South Carolina to Otago, from Waihi to Didipio, employees found their own ways to mark the occasion. While each celebration looked different, the feeling was the same.

“What made the day really special is the four members of our global team who joined from each of our sites to experience the day and celebrate with us,” says Brian.

Emily Stephens from Haile, Quenton Johnston from Macraes, Cassie McArthur from Waihi, and Fedlyn Boquiren from Didipio represented their operational teams in a nod to celebrating our people who show up every day committed to working safely, responsibly, and with pride.

We captured their reflections in a Road to the Bell video series. In their own words, they share sentiments on being selected to be part of the event and what it meant to stand on a global stage on behalf of thousands of colleagues.

“It is the first time I have been in New York City, and it has been a bit overwhelming for a little country girl like me. I did not know what to expect about the hype of being listed on the New York Stock Exchange and being asked to come and ring the bell. As I have been here, it has just grown larger and larger.” – Emily Stephens.

“Reflecting on the experience, a question kept running through my mind. What would be the ultimate way for OceanaGold to recognise my contribution, or anyone’s contribution, to the company. For me, the answer was clear. It was this experience. Being there, representing OceanaGold employees, and being part of that moment was an absolute honour.” – Quenton Johnston.

Watch Quenton’s story:

“Until I actually got here in New York, I did not really realize what a big deal it was. That was the point when I understood what a massive privilege and honour it was to be there and to be asked to represent all of the Waihi staff and the Waihi operation.” – Cassie McArthur.

“Walking inside and seeing all the OceanaGold banners, even in the elevator, made me think wow, there is a future ahead. Being there was absolutely fantastic for me. Representing the Filipino workforce is a great source of pride.” – Fedlyn Boquiren.
