In other recent news, Coeur Mining has received an upgrade in its corporate family rating from Moody’s Ratings, moving to B2 from B3. This upgrade was influenced by the acquisition of SilverCrest Metals (NYSE:SILV), which added the Las Chispas mine to Coeur’s portfolio, and the successful expansion of the Rochester project. Furthermore, Coeur Mining has released a technical report for the Las Chispas Mine, offering detailed insights into the mine’s potential, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. BMO Capital Markets has resumed coverage on Coeur Mining with an Outperform rating, setting a price target of $9.00, emphasizing the strategic benefits of the SilverCrest acquisition.

Additionally, Coeur Mining announced the expansion of its board of directors, appointing N. Eric Fier and Pierre Beaudoin, contingent on the completion of the SilverCrest acquisition. This move is part of the company’s strategic business combination with SilverCrest, which was recently approved by the Mexican Federal Economic Competition Commission. The acquisition still requires approval from Coeur’s stockholders and the Supreme Court of British Columbia, with a completion date anticipated for mid-February. Despite facing legal challenges regarding the proxy statement for the acquisition, Coeur Mining has supplemented its disclosures to address these concerns. These developments reflect Coeur’s ongoing efforts to enhance its operations and financial standing.
