Two weeks ago, I have the privilege
of meeting Mr Godfrey Walton, President & Chief Operating Officer of
Endeavour Silver Corp (“EXK”). He was very patient and detailed in his presentation
as he understood that we are not exactly familiar with silver mining companies
and their industry.

respectively in FY13F. (See Table 2
below) Cash cost is expected to rise from US$7.33 per oz Ag in FY12 to US$9.00-10.00

Analyst call: 6 Buys vs 2 holds
According to Bloomberg (Refer to Figure 2 below), there are 6 buys vs 2
holds for EXK (it is noteworthy that EVA Dimensions does not seem to have an
updated report after EXK’s 4Q results on 12 Mar, thus the ‘hold’ call may not
be updated.) Average analyst target price is about US$9.37, which offers about
51% potential upside vs EXK’s closing price of US$6.22 on 28 Mar, Thursday.

Chart – consolidating mode – May break out soon
EXK is on a downtrend since Oct
2012. (See Chart 4 below) The
downtrend line, coupled with the historical resistance, gap, 50D EMA and
Fibonacci retracement formed significant resistance between US$6.44-6.61. There
are some redeeming factors, such as positively placed parabolic SAR and the
slowly inching upwards of its 21D EMA. As the consolidation range narrows, the
possibility of a breakout (upwards or downwards) increases. If EXK can provide
a reassuring production update in Apr, it may form the catalyst to break out of
this range on the upside.

Potential catalysts… Apr’s production update & 1QFY13F results
In a nutshell, market is likely to
be watching EXK’s production update in Apr and its upcoming 1QFY13F results in
May. If EXK can surprise on the upside, it may just provide the rerating
catalysts for the share price to move higher.
