Silvercorp Metals Tops Revenue Estimates but Faces Cost Concerns

Silvercorp Metals Inc. (NYSE:SVM) delivered a strong revenue beat in its fiscal Q4 results, driven by robust production and higher metal prices. However, the stock slid 5.9% on Friday as investors focused on cost pressures and cautious guidance.

Key Q4 Highlights

• Adjusted EPS: $0.07 (in line with estimates)

• Revenue: $75.1 million (up 76% YoY, beat estimates of $66.8M)

• Production: 1.92 million ounces of silver equivalent, up 45% YoY

• Full-Year FY25 Results:

  • Adjusted EPS: $0.37

  • Revenue: $298.9 million

  • Cash and Short-Term Investments: $369.1 million

CEO Rui Feng emphasized strong production across silver, gold, lead, and zinc, attributing the revenue jump to higher volumes and favorable prices. Still, margin concerns persist as input costs continue to rise.

Investor Focus Shifts to Margins
