Approach 1: Endeavour Mining Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Analysis

A Discounted Cash Flow, or DCF, model estimates what a business might be worth today by projecting its future cash flows and then discounting those back to a single present value figure.

For Endeavour Mining, the model used is a 2 Stage Free Cash Flow to Equity approach based on cash flow projections. The latest twelve month free cash flow sits at about $735.4 million. Simply Wall St then uses analyst inputs and its own estimates to project free cash flow out over ten years. This includes a forecast of $2,048.7 million in 2028, with later years extrapolated beyond the period where analysts typically provide formal estimates.

On this basis, the DCF model suggests an intrinsic value of about $150.50 per share, compared with the recent share price of around CA$82.85. That gap equates to an implied discount of roughly 44.9%, which indicates that Endeavour Mining may be trading at a significant markdown relative to this cash flow based estimate.

Result: UNDERVALUED

Our Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) analysis suggests Endeavour Mining is undervalued by 44.9%. Track this in your watchlist or portfolio, or discover 6 more high quality undervalued stocks.

Approach 2: Endeavour Mining Price vs Earnings

For profitable companies, the P/E ratio is a common way to think about value because it links what you pay for the stock to the earnings that each share is generating today. In general, higher growth expectations and lower perceived risk can justify a higher P/E, while slower growth and higher risk usually go with a lower, more cautious P/E range.

Endeavour Mining is trading on a P/E of about 21.6x. That compares with an industry average P/E for Metals and Mining of around 18.6x and a peer group average of about 22.9x. Simply Wall St also calculates a proprietary “Fair Ratio” for Endeavour Mining of roughly 28.1x, which is designed to reflect what P/E might be reasonable given factors such as earnings growth, industry, profit margins, market cap and risk profile.

This Fair Ratio goes further than a simple comparison with peers or the broader industry because it adjusts for company specific characteristics rather than assuming all miners deserve the same multiple. With a Fair Ratio of 28.1x versus the current P/E of 21.6x, Endeavour Mining is trading below this tailored benchmark, which indicates that the stock may be undervalued on this measure.

Result: UNDERVALUED

Upgrade Your Decision Making: Choose your Endeavour Mining Narrative

Earlier a better way to understand valuation was mentioned. This is where Narratives come in. They let you turn your view of Endeavour Mining into a simple story that connects your assumptions for future revenue, earnings and margins to a forecast, and then to a Fair Value that you can compare with the current price. All of this happens inside the Simply Wall St Community page, where Narratives update automatically when fresh news or earnings arrive. One investor might build a higher Fair Value story around gold at $4,000 and a share price near $156, while another plugs in more cautious analyst style assumptions with Fair Values closer to CA$50.76 or CA$88.00. This gives you a clear, visual sense of how different views translate into different possible buy or sell decisions.

For Endeavour Mining however we will make it really easy for you with previews of two leading Endeavour Mining Narratives:

Each one takes the same company and recent share price and then builds a different story around where value could sit, based on specific assumptions about gold prices, growth, margins and risk.

🐂 Endeavour Mining Bull Case

Fair value used in this bullish narrative: US$156.00 per share.

Implied pricing gap versus the last close of US$82.85 is about 46.9% below this narrative fair value.

Revenue growth assumption in this narrative: 50.93%.

• Links Endeavour Mining’s value to a scenario where gold is at US$4,000 per ounce and production is 1.2 million ounces.
• Uses an all in cost assumption of US$1,400 per ounce to arrive at free cash flow of about US$3.12b.
• Applies a 10x free cash flow multiple and around 200 million shares to arrive at a fair value near US$156 per share.

🐻 Endeavour Mining Bear Case

Fair value used in this bearish narrative: CA$50.76 per share.

Implied pricing gap versus the last close of CA$82.85 is about 38.7% above this narrative fair value.

Revenue growth assumption in this narrative: 5.14% annual decline.

• Frames Endeavour Mining through the lens of cautious analysts who see execution, permitting, tax and geopolitical risks around projects like Assafou and new jurisdictions such as Kazakhstan.
• Builds a case around revenue declining by 5.1% a year, profit margins rising to 18.1% and earnings reaching US$603.0m by 2028, combined with a future P/E of 18.0x and an 8.27% discount rate.
• Highlights that a CA$50.76 fair value sits well below both consensus and the most bullish targets, and encourages you to sense check the implied 2028 revenue, earnings and multiples against your own expectations.

These two narratives sit on opposite sides of the debate. Each one is explicit about the assumptions it uses on gold prices, costs, production, margins and valuation multiples, which may make it easier for you to decide which story feels closer to your own view of Endeavour Mining.
