What Is Andean Silver's Investment Narrative?

To own Andean Silver, you have to believe that Cerro Bayo’s growing resource base can eventually justify a company that is still small in revenue, loss making and pricing in a lot of future success. The recent A$5.99 million follow‑on raise at A$1.85, together with the doubled A$6 million share purchase plan, strengthens the balance sheet in the near term and links fresh capital directly to the Chilean exploration schedule. Coupled with the shift to a 31 December year‑end, investors should expect a reporting rhythm that lines up more closely with key drilling and study milestones, which may sharpen short term catalysts around resource updates and technical work. The trade‑off is further dilution on top of an already high price to book and a business that remains unprofitable.

But there is one risk in particular here that many shareholders might be underestimating. Insights from our recent valuation report point to the potential overvaluation of Andean Silver shares in the market.
