Coeur Mining (NYSE: CDE) is a precious metals producer with operations focused on gold and silver. The company’s stock recently received a rating change from analyst Mike Kozak of Cantor Fitzgerald. He downgraded Coeur Mining to a Hold rating from a previous Buy, signaling a more neutral short-term outlook on the stock’s performance.
The analyst set a new price target of $19.00 for Coeur Mining. When this target was published, the stock’s price was $18.15, which represented a potential upside of only 4.68%. This small margin suggests the analyst believes the stock has limited room to grow in the near future from that price point.
This cautious rating comes despite strong recent performance. As highlighted by Zacks, Coeur Mining reported quarterly earnings of $0.36 per share. While this narrowly missed the consensus estimate of $0.37, it marks a significant improvement from the $0.11 per share earned in the same quarter a year ago.
The company’s revenue also shows impressive growth. Coeur Mining generated over $856 million in revenue, beating estimates by more than 7.8%. This is a substantial increase from the roughly $360 million in revenue from the previous year, showing strong top-line growth for the company.
As highlighted by Business Wire, this performance is supported by strong production, with gold output rising 11% and silver 18%. The company also achieved a record quarterly adjusted EBITDA of $475 million. EBITDA, or Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization, is a measure of a company’s overall financial performance.
