SSR Mining: Copler Drag Gone, Strong EPS, Hiking My Target

SSR Mining Inc. remains a Buy, with 10% intrinsic upside and strong technicals despite gold's correction below $5,000/oz. SSRM's Q4 results beat expectations: non-GAAP EPS $0.88 vs. $0.57 consensus, revenue up 61% YoY, and a $300M buyback reintroduced. Çöpler mine sale for $1.5B removes a major operational drag, while EPS growth and free cash flow trends are robust into FY 2028.
