Over the last six months, the stock performance has varied, with an increase following a drop. The stock's price trend wasn't definitive when matched against its global counterparts from the same sector and industry (as depicted above). Within the past six months, its performance has trailed this peer group's by 68ppts and its growth decelerated by 29ppts in the past month. This is equally valid for peers from the same country and industry. Given the stock's valuation versus its peers, its total price movement is slightly unfavourable.

Silver Viper Minerals Corp. reported a return on equity (RoE) of -51.0% in the last 12 months, up from -95.3% in FY22. 

Another important profitability metric, return on assets (RoA), amounted to -46.7% in the last 12 months, an increase from -84.9% in FY22. 

In the last 12 months, the return on capital employed (RoCE) grew to -51.0%, below the peers. 

The ratio of return on invested capital (RoIC) to the weighted average cost of capital (WACC) has been -10.0 in the past several years. This ratio implies a fragile shareholder value creation. 

The institutional, legal, and compliance risks associated with the company's country are minimal. In combination with stringent business standards, shareholder rights are very highly protected.

VIPR.V has very poor trading liquidity. It will take considerable time for the average private investor to sell a common position under normal market conditions. Liquidity may be unstable and becomes extremely unfavourable on the days with the lowest activity. The trading volume mostly stays the same even under highly turbulent market conditions. Another factor to consider is the substantial number of days with zero trading volumes, i.e., without any ability to sell a position. The stock has a tiny market capitalisation, which usually makes its trading liquidity erratic and unpredictable. 

No other major risks have been identified.

The risk of default is high. Among the negative credit factors and we point to weak positions in its industry, negligible return on capital. We note an favourable capital structure, among the positive credit factors. 

In highly turbulent market conditions, VIPR.V is exceptionally volatile. In other words, the stock will be among the worst-performers in times of extreme market volatility or shocking company news. Standalone, the worst-day losses (less than 1% of the time) will likely be critical. 

In normal market circumstances, VIPR.V is exceptionally volatile. Put differently, without outstanding market volatility or shocking company news, the stock's price will change quite unpredictably. The stock's losses on its worst days (less than 1-5% of the time) will range from critical to immense. 

Considering past and projected metrics, the stock is distinctly 'cheaper' than its peers.
