Fox River Resources (CNSX:FOX)

Simply Wall St Financial Health Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Overview: Fox River Resources Corporation focuses on the acquisition, exploration, evaluation, and development of mineral and natural resources properties with a market cap of CA$27.29 million.

Operations: Fox River Resources Corporation does not report any revenue segments.

Market Cap: CA$27.29M

Fox River Resources, with a market cap of CA$27.29 million, is pre-revenue and unprofitable, reporting consistent net losses over recent periods. Despite its financial challenges, the company maintains a debt-free status and has short-term assets exceeding both short-term and long-term liabilities. However, it faces high share price volatility and limited cash runway under current conditions. Recent developments include a non-brokered private placement expected to raise CA$2.88 million from strategic investors, potentially providing some financial relief but subjecting new shares to trading restrictions for four months post-issuance.

Simply Wall St Financial Health Rating: ★★★★★★

Overview: Santacruz Silver Mining Ltd. is involved in the acquisition, exploration, development, and operation of mineral properties in Latin America, with a market cap of CA$104.09 million.

Operations: The company's revenue is derived from its operations at Porco ($31.21 million), Bolivar ($75.81 million), Zimapan ($67.26 million), SAN Lucas ($76.09 million), and the Caballo Blanco Group ($62.69 million).

Market Cap: CA$104.09M

Santacruz Silver Mining Ltd., with a market cap of CA$104.09 million, has recently achieved profitability, marking significant progress in its financial performance. The company's operations across several sites contribute to substantial revenue streams, including Porco (CA$31.21 million) and Bolivar (CA$75.81 million). Despite high volatility and a recent CFO change, Santacruz maintains robust financial health with short-term assets exceeding liabilities and well-covered debt by operating cash flow. The board is experienced; however, the management team is relatively new. Its stock trades below estimated fair value, offering potential investment interest amidst ongoing strategic developments.
