Hecla Mining Company's trailing twelve-month revenue is $1.63B, and consensus projects about $2.34B by 2030. Revenue is the top line the whole model builds on, and at this scale the question shifts from how fast it grows to whether margins hold as it compounds.
How profitable is HL?
In its most recent fiscal year, HL ran a gross margin of 43.72%, an operating margin of 37.71%, and a net margin of 22.61%. Margins this high mean most of each extra dollar of revenue drops through to profit, which is the signature of real pricing power.
How much free cash flow does HL generate?
HL produced $310.25M in free cash flow in its most recent fiscal year. Free cash flow is what is left after running and reinvesting in the business, and it is the cash that actually funds buybacks, dividends, and a stronger balance sheet.
Is HL's balance sheet healthy?
