Price Target:
C$9.50
▲(37.88% Upside)
The score is held back primarily by weak financial performance (pre-revenue operations, recurring losses, and ongoing cash burn), partially offset by a strong, debt-free balance sheet and favorable technical momentum. Valuation is also a headwind due to losses (negative P/E) and no dividend support.
Positive Factors
Debt-free balance sheet
A debt-free capital structure and sizable equity base give Vizsla durable financial flexibility to fund exploration, withstand commodity cycles, and pursue opportunistic asset work or partnerships without interest burden, reducing solvency risk for months ahead.
Focused precious metals exploration model
A clear, repeatable exploration and resource-advancement model centered on silver-gold in Mexico aligns activities (concessions, drilling, studies) toward eventual resource definition or monetization, creating a durable pathway for value creation if discoveries and delineation progress.
Reduced annual free cash flow burn in 2025
Year-over-year reduction in annual free cash flow burn signals improving capital efficiency or better spend discipline. If sustained, lower cash consumption extends runway, reduces near-term financing needs, and improves the company's ability to advance projects through drilling and studies.
Negative Factors
Pre-revenue operations
Operating without revenue means long-term value depends entirely on exploration success or asset sales; this structurally raises execution and funding risk, as the company cannot self-fund development and must access capital markets or partners to progress projects.
Persistent negative operating and free cash flow
Consistent negative operating and free cash flow indicate ongoing cash burn typical of explorers, necessitating recurrent external financing. Over time this can dilute shareholders, constrain project timelines, and force prioritization of activities over optimal technical plans.
Negative returns on equity
A persistently negative ROE shows the company’s equity base is not generating positive returns and suggests limited productivity of capital deployed. Structurally, this challenges long-term investor returns until projects are de-risked and begin producing economic returns.

How the Company Makes Money

Vizsla Silver Financial Statement Overview

Summary
Balance sheet strength (debt-free, strong equity base) supports flexibility, but the company remains pre-revenue with ongoing losses and persistent negative operating/free cash flow, implying continued reliance on external funding.
Income Statement
18
Very Negative
Vizsla Silver is still pre-revenue (revenue is 0 across all periods), with ongoing operating losses. Losses remain sizable in TTM (Trailing-Twelve-Months) (net loss of ~15.6M and EBIT of ~-34.0M), and profitability metrics are effectively absent given no sales base. A modest positive is that annual net loss improved versus 2024 (~-7.9M in 2025 vs ~-15.9M in 2024), but the overall earnings profile remains weak and dependent on continued funding rather than operations.
Balance Sheet
72
Positive
The balance sheet is a clear strength: the company reports no debt across periods and carries a large equity base (TTM equity ~612.8M vs assets ~621.8M), indicating strong capitalization and financial flexibility. The main drawback is that returns on equity are consistently negative (TTM return on equity about -3.1%), reflecting ongoing losses and limited current productivity of the asset base.
Cash Flow
30
Negative
Cash generation is weak, with negative operating cash flow and negative free cash flow in every period, including TTM (Trailing-Twelve-Months) operating cash flow of ~-5.9M and free cash flow of ~-13.4M. While 2025 annual free cash flow burn (~-7.2M) improved versus 2024 (~-16.5M), TTM (Trailing-Twelve-Months) burn worsened and free cash flow declined sharply (growth about -43%), highlighting ongoing cash consumption and execution/spend variability typical of an early-stage materials company.

Vizsla Silver Moves Panuco Project to Construction Readiness With Strong 2025 Results and Fully Funded Plan
Positive
Jan 20, 2026

Vizsla Silver reported that 2025 marked a major transition year as it moved the Panuco project toward construction readiness, underpinned by an updated mineral resource estimate showing a 43% increase in measured and indicated resources at higher grades and an inaugural feasibility study outlining robust economics, including average annual production of more than 20 million ounces of silver equivalent in the first five years, a US$1.8 billion after-tax NPV, and a 111% internal rate of return. The company advanced its fully permitted test mine to the 460 level, continued underground and district-wide exploration with notable high-grade discoveries at the Animas target, secured more than US$450 million in cash including a US$300 million project financing facility, and laid out 2026 objectives focused on detailed engineering, contractor selection, additional drilling, geophysical surveys, and new target work, positioning Panuco as a well-funded, high-growth development asset targeting first silver production in 2027.

Vizsla Silver Fully Funds Panuco as Project Moves From Study Stage to Construction Readiness
Positive
Jan 20, 2026

Vizsla Silver’s 2025 year-end update underscores a major transition from study and exploration toward full construction readiness at its Panuco silver-gold project, driven by a substantially upgraded mineral resource estimate and a November feasibility study outlining an initial 9.4-year mine life, average annual production of 20.1 million silver-equivalent ounces in the first five years, and robust project economics including an after-tax NPV of US$1.8 billion and a 111% IRR at the company’s price assumptions. With more than US$450 million in cash and a US$300 million project financing facility in place, Panuco is now fully funded, and Vizsla is prioritizing detailed engineering, contractor selection, expanded drilling and test mining, and broader district exploration in 2026, as it advances toward first silver production targeted for the second half of 2027 and seeks to further de-risk and enhance project value for shareholders and local stakeholders.

Vizsla Silver Confirms High-Grade Continuity at Copala With Geotechnical Drilling
Positive
Jan 13, 2026

Vizsla Silver reported additional high-grade silver-gold intercepts from 11 geotechnical drill holes at the Copala resource area within its Panuco project in Mexico, with several holes returning exceptionally strong silver-equivalent grades over meaningful widths. The geotechnical drilling, which forms part of a broader 10,578-metre, 29-hole program used in the company’s feasibility study, doubles as infill drilling that confirms robust grade continuity at Copala and supports upgrading resources, particularly in the early years of the planned mine life. The results reinforce Copala’s status as a cornerstone deposit within Panuco, where measured, indicated and inferred resources already total more than 159 million ounces of silver equivalent, and they dovetail with an ongoing, fully funded test mining and bulk sampling program and a new underground infill drilling campaign from the Morgan ramp, aimed at further de-risking and optimizing future production.

Vizsla Silver Buys Strategic Fresnillo Claims to Expand Panuco Footprint
Positive
Dec 18, 2025

Vizsla Silver has agreed to acquire ten mining claims totaling 2,378 hectares from Fresnillo subsidiary Minera Fresnillo along the silver-gold-rich Panuco–San Dimas corridor, including 1,734 hectares of strategic ground that partly surrounds its flagship Panuco project and covers areas believed to host extensions of known mineralized veins. The US$6 million transaction, split between cash and Vizsla shares, is expected to give the company additional high-priority exploration targets adjacent to zones already included in its Panuco feasibility study, potentially expanding the project’s resource base over time and enhancing future mine economics and district-scale positioning in one of Mexico’s key precious metals belts.
