Centerra Gold's adjusted earnings for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, came in at $0.18 per diluted share, falling short of analysts' average estimate of $0.20 per share. The company's revenue for the quarter also declined 5.8% year-over-year to $323.9 million, missing analysts' expectations of $326.9 million.
