Teck Resources (TSX:TECK.B): Is the Market Fairly Pricing Its Copper-Focused Growth Story?

Simply Wall St · 2d ago

Teck Resources (TSX:TECK.B) has quietly drifted higher over the past 3 months, gaining close to 30%, even though daily moves look modest. That kind of steady climb usually reflects shifting expectations beneath the surface.

See our latest analysis for Teck Resources.

Over the past year Teck’s 90 day share price return of almost 30% stands in contrast to a slightly negative 1 year total shareholder return. This suggests momentum has only recently started to build as investors reassess its growth and risk profile around copper focused expansion plans and commodity price expectations.

If Teck’s recent move has you thinking about what else could be setting up for a rerating, it might be worth exploring fast growing stocks with high insider ownership as your next hunting ground.

With Teck trading just below analyst targets but at a steep discount to some intrinsic value estimates, the key question now is whether the market is overlooking copper driven upside or already baking future growth into the price.

Most Popular Narrative: 3.1% Undervalued

With Teck Resources last closing at CA$60.43 against a narrative fair value of about CA$62.39, the story leans toward modest upside built on copper heavy assumptions, not speculative hype.

The sanctioned Highland Valley Copper Mine Life Extension project and ongoing optimization/debottlenecking at QB are set to double Teck's copper production by decade's end, enabling the company to capitalize on the accelerating demand for copper from global electrification and energy transition, which should materially increase revenue and long-term earnings growth.

Result: Fair Value of $62.39 (UNDERVALUED)

Have a read of the narrative in full and understand what's behind the forecasts.

However, persistent project delays, rising capital costs, and weaker copper prices could quickly compress margins and undermine the upbeat, copper-driven valuation story.

Another Lens On Value

On simple earnings multiples, Teck looks far less forgiving. The stock trades on about 23.8 times earnings versus an industry average near 20.6 times and a fair ratio closer to 17.4. If sentiment cools, could that valuation gap close from the downside rather than the upside?
