Approach 1: Lundin Mining Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) Analysis
The Discounted Cash Flow model takes estimates of future cash flows and discounts them back to today to reach an implied value for the company on a per share basis.
For Lundin 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 is $471.03 million. Analyst estimates and extrapolations suggest free cash flow of $743.55 million in 2026 and $402 million in 2030, with interim years including both positive and negative projected figures. Beyond the analyst horizon, Simply Wall St extrapolates additional years of free cash flow using its own assumptions.
When all of these projected cash flows are discounted back to today, the model arrives at an estimated intrinsic value of $16.37 per share. Compared to the current share price of C$34.22, the DCF output implies the stock is 109.1% overvalued based on these inputs and assumptions.
Result: OVERVALUED

Approach 2: Lundin Mining Price vs Earnings
For profitable companies, the P/E ratio is a useful gauge because it links what you pay for each share to the earnings that business is currently generating. Investors usually look for a P/E level that reflects both how quickly earnings might change over time and how risky those earnings are, with higher expected growth or lower risk often justifying a higher P/E, and the opposite also being true.
Lundin Mining is currently trading on a P/E of 99.20x. That sits well above the Metals and Mining industry average of 25.01x and the peer group average of 22.31x. Simply Wall St’s Fair Ratio for Lundin Mining is 25.53x, which is its proprietary estimate of what a reasonable P/E could be for this company given factors such as earnings growth profile, profit margins, industry, market cap and identified risks.
The Fair Ratio is more tailored than a simple comparison with peers or the industry average, because it adjusts for company specific characteristics rather than assuming every business in the group deserves the same multiple. Comparing Lundin Mining’s current 99.20x P/E to the Fair Ratio of 25.53x indicates that the shares are trading well above what this framework suggests.
Result: OVERVALUED
