AG Return on Equity (ROE) Analysis

Return on Equity (ROE) measures how much profit a company generates for each dollar of shareholders' equity, with 6.1% meaning First Majestic Silver earned roughly $0.061 for every $1 of equity over the past year.

This figure sits well below the Basic Materials sector median of 13.3%, placing the company in the 27th percentile among its peers — indicating weaker profitability relative to the industry. The trend data is not available: both year-over-year and quarter-over-quarter changes are reported as N/A, and no historical values beyond the current 6.1% exist for the last eight quarters. Without a trend, the analysis relies solely on the current low level, which suggests limited opportunity for income-focused investors but may also reflect the cyclical nature of silver mining where capital-intensive assets suppress ROE. This metric supports the overall NEUTRAL verdict — the below-median ROE signals a risk of underperformance versus peers, but the absence of a downward trend leaves room for a cautious stance rather than a clear sell or buy.
