Investment Thesis
We rate SSMR at Buy/High Risk with a $18/share target price. Our Buy rating is
based on the following:
n A constructive long-term view on silver and precious metals prices ($75/oz in
2027E).
n A potential Tier 1 silver asset. A 5-7moz mine x 20+ years at <$20/oz AISC as
envisaged in the technical report would be one of the best in North America.
Idaho, USA is a geopolitically attractive and established mining region.
n A credible restart plan supported by a strong technical report with clear
milestones/catalysts, led by an experienced team. Note: The company plans to
complete infill drilling and engineering designs for the mine during 2026
supporting a Feasibility Study early in 2027.
n Potential upside from near-mine and district-wide exploration plans – especially
the Upper Country.
n Potential re-rating as the mine returns to production. (Note: Several established
Tier 1 jurisdiction silver producers trade close to 1.5-2.0x NAV vs SSMR closer to
1.0x)
