SSR Mining Inc. (SSRM): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Ticker symbol SSRM · Basic Materials · Gold · United States · Growth
Is SSRM undervalued?
SSR Mining Inc. (SSRM) closed at 28.15 on 5 Nov 2026, close to the GLS average fair value of 26.66 (5.6% above fair value). 3 of the 9 models that produced a number sit above the price, 6 below - the market and our models roughly agree. With little margin of safety either way, the case for or against the stock rests on the quality numbers and the option premium rather than on price.
There is a wide gap between DDM (0.4414) and Payback Time (58.56). When the models are this far apart the "fair value" is really a range, and the margin of safety above should be read with that range in mind.
Ranked against every other company we cover, SSRM is clearly faster-growing than it is cheap, so the nightly engine files it under Growth (value score 41, growth score 80, out of 100).

| Graham Number | 22.47 | -20% | The most a defensive investor pays for the earnings and book value per share |
| Graham Growth | 22.47 | -20% | Graham's growth formula: EPS × (8.5 + 2 × growth), adjusted for bond yields |
| Lynch | 5.57 | -80% | EPS × the earnings growth rate (PEG of 1), growth capped at 25% |
| GLS Growth | 57.72 | +105% | EPS compounded ten years at the blended growth rate, discounted back at 15% a year |

Quality and financial health
SSR Mining Inc. scores 8 of 9 on the Piotroski F-score, the nine yes/no tests of profitability, leverage and efficiency on the latest annual accounts - a strong reading that passes the "Piotroski 6 or more" Wheel Trade Filter with room to spare. A GLS Moat score of 3.5/10 is a weak reading: the accounts do not show returns and margins that competitors have been unable to wear down, so the Moat part of the Wheel Score contributes little.
Returns on capital are moderate - ROIC 10.3%, ROE 11.5%, ROA 6.6% - with debt at 0.12 times equity and a free-cash-flow yield of 5.9%.
The dividend yield is 0.11% with a payout ratio of 2% - a small yield that leaves most of the earnings in the business. Revenue comes mainly from Gold 72%, Silver 25%, Lead 2% (quarter Q2 FY2026).
Institutional ownership scores 9/10, insider activity 5/10 and Congressional trading 5/10 on the GLS smart-money scales; the last recorded insider buy was on 11 Sep 2026.
| Piotroski F-score | 8 / 9 | ROIC | 10.3% |
|---|---|---|---|
| GLS Moat | 3.5 / 10 | ROE | 11.5% |
| Debt / equity | 0.12 | ROA | 6.6% |
| Free-cash-flow yield | 5.9% | Payout ratio | 2% |
| Institutions | 9 / 10 | Insiders · Congress | 5 · 5 / 10 |
Wheel Score 39: Weak
With a Wheel Score of 39 SSR Mining Inc. sits in the Weak band. It fails filter 3, below fair value - trades 6% above our fair value; Value (weak) is its weakest part.
Implied volatility is 55% on the near-the-money contracts 20-60 days out - inside the 35-60% sweet spot the Wheel Score rewards most: enough premium to be worth selling, not so much that the risk is unpaid. Chain open interest is 23,369 contracts across all expiries - enough for the wheel at normal size.
Volume runs at 6.2M shares a day on a market cap of $5.7B, with a beta of 0.90; the Stability part of the Wheel Score rates that good.

|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Options that actually trade | Passes | Listed options with 1,000+ contracts of open interest and 100+ traded a day |
| 2 | A real business, not a gamble | Passes | Profitable over the last twelve months - not a speculative stock, fund or note |
| 3 | Below fair value | Fails | trades 6% above our fair value |
| 4 | Financially healthy | Passes | Piotroski F-score 6 or more out of 9 (a company with no score on file passes) |
| 5 | Can repay its debt | Passes | Long-term debt repaid from 3 years of operating cash flow or less (6 for real estate and utilities; banks and insurers are not judged on it) |
| 6 | No serious red flags | Passes | Red Flags score 60 or more out of 100 (earnings, margins, debt, analysts, filings and price checked the same way for every stock) |
| 7 | A premium worth selling | Passes | Implied volatility 25-80% (enough premium, not a lottery ticket) |
| 8 | Big enough | Passes | Market cap $1 billion or more |
| 9 | Not a penny stock | Passes | Share price $5 or more |
