SSR Mining Inc. (SSRM): fair value, margin of safety and Wheel Score
Basic Materials · Gold · United States · High Growth
Is SSRM undervalued?
SSR Mining Inc. (SSRM) closed at 30.70 on 16 Oct 2026, 41% above the GLS average fair value of 21.78. 6 of the 9 models that produced a number value the shares below the current price. A gap this wide usually means the market is paying for growth or a story the trailing numbers do not show yet; the models work from filed results, not forecasts, so they are conservative by design.
There is a wide gap between DDM (0.4414) and Payback Time (55.15). 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.
The nightly engine files SSRM under High Growth: revenue and earnings growing fast enough that the growth-based models carry the valuation.

Wheel Score 65: Good
With a Wheel Score of 65 - the Good band - SSR Mining Inc. falls just short of the Sunday Scan's "70 or higher" rule. The parts: Value 0/25, Health 18/20, Moat 8/15, Premium 20/20, Stability 19/20; Value (0/25) scores lowest.
Implied volatility is 59% on the near-the-money contracts 20-60 days out - inside the 35-60% range the Wheel Score pays full marks for: enough premium to be worth selling, not so much that the risk is unpaid. Chain open interest is 46,868 contracts across all expiries - enough for the wheel at normal size.
Volume runs at 4.2M shares a day on a market cap of $6.3B, with a beta of 0.90; the Stability part of the Wheel Score gives that 19 of 20.
| Part | Points | From | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Value | 0 / 25 | -41% margin of safety | |
| Health | 18 / 20 | Piotroski 8/9 | |
