Analysis
Hudbay Minerals Inc (HBM) currently trades at $26.31, while our model-based Fair Value estimate is $21.77, implying the stock looks roughly 17.3% overvalued today. We read business quality at 50/100 (solid quality), in the Basic Materials sector. Bear case: priced above our estimate, the market already discounts strong expectations. Bull case: above-average quality can justify a premium, the entry price still matters most (evidence: high).
Over the trailing twelve months, Hudbay Minerals Inc generated revenue of $2.4B at a net margin of 27.8%. Revenue grew 27.3% year over year. It earns a return on equity of 19.5%. Net debt stands at $524M. Fundamentals as of Jul 19, 2026
Our scenario range runs from $10.25 (bear case) to $31.21 (bull case); at $26.31, the current price sits within that range. Bear and bull are the same models run on conservative and optimistic assumptions (margins, growth, valuation multiples), so a plausible valuation range, not a price target. The share trades about 18% below its 52-week high and 195% above its 52-week low, currently above its 200-day average. For context, the median of 10 Basic Materials peers we cover trades at -47% fair-value upside, at -17%, HBM screens cheaper than that median.
Fair Value models
Each model estimates fair value its own way; the Fair Value above is the evidence-weighted blend. Evidence (0–100) measures how completely this model’s inputs are available: well-fed models carry more weight in the blend. The spread across models is intentional, each one stresses a different value driver; dividend models, for instance, come out structurally low when payout is small.
All 26 models by family
