First Majestic Silver (TSX:AG) has drawn fresh attention after raising its 2026 consolidated production guidance, reporting higher year on year Q2 output, and advancing permitting and construction plans at its Santa Elena mine in Mexico.
See our latest analysis for First Majestic Silver.
Despite the stronger Q2 output and higher 2026 production guidance, First Majestic Silver’s share price has eased recently, with the stock down 21.72% on a 90 day share price return basis. However, its 1 year total shareholder return of 85.48% and 3 year total shareholder return of about 2.7x suggest momentum has been stronger over a longer horizon.

First Majestic Silver has lifted its 2026 production guidance, yet the stock has pulled back sharply in recent months. The key question for investors is whether the current fundamentals, price and risk profile still tilt the balance in favour of buyers or not.
Based on the most followed narrative, First Majestic Silver’s fair value of CA$38.50 sits well above the last close of CA$23.21. This frames a sizeable valuation gap that rests on ambitious growth and margin assumptions.
Robust year over year growth in silver production (up 76%) and record revenue (up 94%), combined with expanded exploration and accelerated mine development, position the company to capture higher sales volumes and benefit from potential increases in industrial and investment demand for silver, directly supporting future revenue growth.
Want to see what sits behind that growth story? The narrative leans on aggressive top line expansion, a slimmer profit margin profile, and a rich future earnings multiple. Curious which assumptions really carry the fair value?
Result: Fair Value of CA$38.50 (UNDERVALUED)

However, the First Majestic Silver story also carries clear pressure points, including high ongoing exploration and development spending, as well as concentrated exposure to Mexico that could affect earnings stability.

While the popular narrative sees First Majestic Silver as 39.7% undervalued, the current P/E of 27.8x paints a different picture. It sits above the Canadian Metals and Mining industry at 14.3x, peers at 20.2x, and even the fair ratio of 18.8x, which points to valuation risk if expectations cool.
If earnings growth or sentiment softens, how much room is there for that multiple to compress before it lines up with the fair ratio investors might eventually focus on?
