Global Hunter Securities Downgrades Great Panther Silver Limited (GPL) to Neutral; Silver Slumps and Management Reshuffle

Article Stock Quotes (1) Comments (0)

Global Hunter Securities downgraded Great Panther Silver Limited (NYSE: GPL) from Accumulate to Neutral with a price target of $2.25 (from $3.00).

Analyst, Jeff Wright, highlights two key points including: 1) Management reshuffle creates concern to advance into mid-tier silver producer. The announced transitions in management give us pause as to whether GPL can execute on its organic growth plan in Mexico and evolve into a mid-tier primary silver producer in the next 2-3 years; and 2) Weakness in silver markets do not help situation. The silver market's recent sluggishness and price depreciation do not help GPL and increase the risk if there is a shortfall in production or results going forward. With this decrease in the margin for error, at this time we believe GPL does not warrant a premium valuation relative to its peer group."
