The main question: yearly earnings per share moved +763.0% while the share price moved +2.6%. ## What is the Hecla Mining share price today? Hecla Mining Company's share price was $13.21 at the close on 3 November 2026. It has been moving sideways for 8 weeks. That is 28.7% below its average price over the last 200 trading days. In the last 52 weeks it traded between $13 and $32, and at that close it was at the low of that range. Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, and it has been behind for 3 weeks running. Over the last 10 years the share price moved +118% while the S&P 500 moved +255%, so it is behind the index over that whole period. It was last ahead over 13 weeks in the week of 16 October 2026. The chart above shows the 13-week comparison for every week. This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does Hecla Mining pay? Hecla Mining Company paid $0.01 per share over the last four reported quarters. The most recent declaration was $0.00 for Jun 2026. At today's price of $13.21 that is a yield of 0.08%, based on dividends already paid, not a forecast. ## Which stock lists is Hecla Mining on? Hecla Mining is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list. ## Is Hecla Mining profitable? Hecla Mining Company earned $118 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter. Full-year FY25 profit was $321 M. Over 4 years profit has grown 74.6% a year on average. That is 35.3% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $27.7 M. 4 of the last 8 reported quarters were loss-making. For the full year, FY25 profit was $321 M (+811.1% on the year before). ## How much revenue does Hecla Mining make, and is it growing? Hecla Mining Company reported $334 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter. Over 4 years it has grown 15.2% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $1.4 B. The quarterly figures for FY25 do not add up to the full-year total on file, so those quarters are left out of the charts and sums. FY25 revenue was $1.4 B, +53.0% on the year before. ## How much of every $100 of sales does Hecla Mining keep? Hecla Mining Company's operating margin was 44.3% in the Jun 2026 quarter. Its latest full-year margin is the highest it has ever reported. Across 5 years it has been between 3.6% and 37.3%. The latest quarter is above every full year in that period. Across 5 years it has been between 3.6% and 37.3%, and FY25's 37.3% is the highest of them. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed +31.9 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +22.1 points. So the gain came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. When margins are at a record, every ratio built on profit looks better than usual, so watch whether they hold. ## Is Hecla Mining's profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 256% of Hecla Mining Company's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $563 M of operating cash against $321 M of profit. After $252 M of spending on assets, $310 M was left over as free cash. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason. What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Hecla Mining's cash go? Hecla Mining Company does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent $691 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 16.2% of FY25 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: $691 M over the last 3 years. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. ## What is Hecla Mining's P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Hecla Mining Company's P/E is 26.6×, with too little history to compare. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved +763.0% while the price moved +2.6%. Earnings did better than the price, which pulled the multiple down within its own range. In short: there is too little history to say whether the multiple is high or low for this company, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Hecla Mining business getting better or worse? Hecla Mining Company's business trend cannot be read yet. There are fewer than eight usable quarters of growth figures, so there is not enough history to read the trend. This is based on 6 quarters of 1 measure, with some gaps. Why it matters: with too little history, we say so rather than guess a direction. The latest quarter’s profit includes a one-off item bigger than the normal business, so the profit line is shown but does not count in this reading. The return figures here are yearly, not quarterly. They show level and direction only; they can support the growth lines but never decide the reading alone. There are fewer than eight usable quarters, so this page does not guess a direction from so little history. ## How much does Hecla Mining earn on its capital? Hecla Mining Company earned a ROE of 12% in FY25. That is up from a low of −4% in FY23. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 14.2 percentage points above its cost of capital, so growth here adds value, not just size. It comes from a 22.6% net margin and 0.40× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 22.6% net margin × 0.40× asset turnover × 1.37× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 12.4% on equity. The margin does most of the work; borrowing plays a small part, so this return is earned, not borrowed. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 26.5% − 12.3% = +14.2 percentage points. The 12.3% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. A gap this wide means each dollar put back into the business creates more than a dollar of value. The 26.5% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY25 at 13.9%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Hecla Mining have too much debt? Hecla Mining Company has total debt of $21.5 M against shareholder equity of $2.7 B as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.01× its equity, which is very little. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.30 in FY21 to 0.11 in FY25. So the returns on this page come from the business, not from borrowed money. ## What is the Hecla Mining shareholding pattern? 5.6% of Hecla Mining Company's tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so some traders are betting against it. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 1.0 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. Why it is at this level: the figure does not say who holds the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story. ## How far is Hecla Mining from balance-sheet trouble? For Hecla Mining Company, the Z-score is 14.02. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is well clear of danger. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 14.02 is well clear of the danger zone, so the balance sheet is not the risk here. ## How does Hecla Mining rank in its industry? 62.5 out of 100, rank 3 of 17 in Other Precious Metals & Mining, with 75% of the evidence available. Hecla Mining Company scores 62.5 out of 100 against the 17 companies it is compared with in Other Precious Metals & Mining, ranking 3. The evidence is balanced: no factor stands out, so another reported quarter is needed before the picture is clearer. The four parts add up to the total exactly: 26.3 + 18.6 + 9.3 + 8.3 = 62.5. This is the same number shown on the industry page; it is worked out once for the whole group and read here. What would change it: The score would fall if profit growth turns negative or margins stop improving while the share price lags its sector. ## Which companies is Hecla Mining compared with? Hecla Mining ranks 3 of 17 Other Precious Metals & Mining companies on the 4-Factor Sector Score, with 62.5 out of 100. 1.

Missing figures are not scored as bad. They lower the confidence and pull the final score toward the middle. Relative strength counts only when the company has a reading for this week; with no reading, that factor is left out and its 20 points are shared across the other three in proportion. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step path the industry is placed on (basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep), read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is growing or shrinking. It describes where the share price stands, not the direction of earnings, and it is not a recommendation; it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read. The figures in this ranking come from the industry comparison: results through the Jun 2026 quarter, and the P/E at that quarter's end. The sections above use the latest weekly price, so a P/E or return there can differ a little from the one here. The stage words in this ranking (such as losing its lead or breaking out) describe the lead over the index, not the price phase in the price section.

Hecla Mining Company reported revenue of $334 M and net profit of $118 M for the Jun 2026 quarter. Earnings per share were $0.17. The operating margin was 44.3% (as of 3 November 2026). ### What is Hecla Mining's market cap? Hecla Mining Company's market capitalisation is $8.9 B at a stock price of $13.21. Market cap is the share price times the number of shares, so it changes whenever the price moves (as of 3 November 2026). ### How is Hecla Mining performing? Hecla Mining Company's share price has been moving sideways for 8 weeks. Over the past 13 weeks it has done worse than the S&P 500, for 3 weeks running. This describes what the data did, not a rating (as of 3 November 2026). ### Will Hecla Mining's stock price go up? This page does not forecast Hecla Mining Company's stock price. What it shows instead: the stock price is $13.21, and it has been moving sideways for 8 weeks. Nobody can reliably say which way a price will move, and this site does not try (as of 3 November 2026). ### Is Hecla Mining's profit real cash? Yes, over the last 3 years, 256% of Hecla Mining Company's reported profit came in as cash from operations. The latest year was lower at 175%, so the trend is worth watching. In FY25, operating cash was $563 M against reported profit of $321 M. Most of that cash then goes into building new capacity. These are yearly figures (as of 3 November 2026). ### Where is Hecla Mining in its business cycle? Hecla Mining Company's FY25 operating margin was 37.3%, against a 5-year range of 3.6% to 37.3%: the top of its range, a record year. When profit is at a record, every ratio looks better than usual, and the story depends on margins staying high. The latest quarter was 44.3%. Comparing margins with a company's own long history is a good way to see where it is in its cycle (as of 3 November 2026). ### What could break the Hecla Mining story? The main question: yearly earnings per share moved +763.0% while the share price moved +2.6%. On price, this page treats a rise as over when the share price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row (as of 3 November 2026). ### Is Hecla Mining a stock worth studying right now? What the numbers show: Hecla Mining Company's share price, valuation and earnings point in different directions. The next one or two quarters should make it clearer. The main open question: whether the price catches up with earnings that have already grown. Every number on this page is worked out by code from the published figures, with no forecasts and no price opinions (as of 3 November 2026). This is research, not advice. We’re not SEBI-registered.
