AI Analysis

AI-generated, general educational analysis — not personal investment advice.

Mr. Market is excited about Aura Minerals. At the 2026-10-13 close of $87.94, the company is valued at $7.6B. FairStock's calculations show a P/E of 24.63, P/B of 16.14, and a Graham Number of only $20.90, implying a margin of safety of -320.77%. That is not a bargain in the Graham sense; one is paying a rich price for accounting book value. The operating record, however, is remarkable: revenue growth of 136.46% and profit growth of 229.91%, with a 64.79% net margin in the second quarter of 2026, when revenue was $336.0M and net income was $217.7M. FairStock also notes a return on equity of 100.16% and ROCE of 29.82%, while the debt-to-equity ratio is 1.00. That combination, high returns with real leverage, can work while gold and copper prices are strong, but it can cut both ways. Free cash flow is positive at $176.1M, though the 2.3% FCF yield is thin against the $7.6B market cap. The dividend yield is 2.99%, and beta is 0.36. A commodity miner has no durable consumer moat; it is a price-taker dependent on ore bodies, costs, and metal prices. FairStock's Piotroski score is 4/9 and Altman Z-score is 3.85, suggesting some financial resilience but not a fortress. Its Lynch category is none because only 0 years of filed results are available and three are needed. The PEG of 0.11 and EV/EBITDA of 13.43 depend heavily on extraordinary growth continuing. Growth is impressive, but the price already discounts much of it.

In plain English: Aura Minerals mines gold and copper in the Americas. The business has grown quickly and its latest quarter was very profitable, but it carries meaningful debt and the shares have already risen sharply. At the recent close, the price looks expensive compared with the company's accounting net worth and a conservative estimate of value, even though fast profit growth makes the picture less simple.
