  • Fresnillo Cuts 2025 Production Guidance Amid Operational Challenges, Shares Drop
    January 31, 2026, 7:44 AM EST. Fresnillo (LSE:FRES) lowered its 2025 silver and gold production guidance due to operational issues at its Fresnillo mine impacting ore processing and grade. The revision is tied to mine performance, not market conditions. Shares declined 11.2% last week, trading near £37.02, above the £36.14 analyst target but overvalued by 69.2% according to Simply Wall St. Despite recent volatility, the stock has gained 11% in 30 days and over 400% in the past year. Investors should watch for further adjustments in mine output and guidance, as these will influence future revenues and share sentiment. The stock's high price-to-earnings ratio of 82.1 signals elevated risk amid operational uncertainty.
