Context and risks
High geopolitical exposure: main operations in the DRC, with risk of political and regulatory instability. Additionally, the fall in gold and pressure on industrial metals affect its valuation, and the rise in 10-year rates penalizes long-duration miners.

Verdict: Hold or avoid: growth does not compensate for high leverage and premium valuation, especially with rising rates.
Main risk: The main risk is the combination of very high debt (ND/EBITDA 7.21) with an extreme valuation (P/E 92.77) in a rising rate environment, which could further compress the stock price.
