Kumtor Gold Company (KGC) has announced its plans to pay Kyrgyzaltyn $151.3 million in dividends. This amount exceeds the 2022 figure by $11.3 million when Kyrgyzaltyn received $140 million. According to KGC’s financial report, the company’s net profit amounted to $371.721 million last year, marking a 59.4% increase from 2021.
It’s worth noting that with the dividend payout by Kumtor, Kyrgyzstan’s total income from the gold mining company for 2022 and 2023 will reach $291.3 million. This nearly triples the dividends received by Kyrgyzstan from Canadian company Centerra Gold Inc. between 2010 and 2021, which amounted to $101.7 million.
Recall that Kumtor fully transitioned into Kyrgyzstan’s ownership on July 29, 2022, following the exchange of relevant documents at the Kyrgyzstan Embassy in the United Kingdom.
