Factors to Consider
Pan American Silver had reported a loss in the fourth quarter of 2022 mainly due to low silver prices and high costs. Worldwide inflationary pressures, ongoing supply-chain shortages and delays have led to the escalation of production costs across the company’s operations. This scenario continued through the first quarter of 2023 as well, which is anticipated to get reflected in the company’s quarterly margins.
Also, silver prices had been impacted in the first quarter of 2023 amid rising interest rates, a stronger dollar, inflation and sluggish growth. The contraction in the industrial sector due to muted customer spending and supply-chain constraints weighed on silver prices. Lower prices are expected to get reflected in PAAS’s results in the to-be-reported quarter.
On Mar 31, the company announced that it closed the much-awaited acquisition of Yamana Gold Inc. This adds four producing mines to Pan American's portfolio — the Jacobina mining complex in Brazil, the El Peñón and Minera Florida mines in Chile, and the Cerro Moro mine in Argentina. It also includes the MARA development project in Argentina. The company has revised its production and cost guidance for 2023.
