Andean Precious Metals (APM:TSX, ANPMF:OTC) reported Q3 financial results that beat our estimates. Production results were pre-released on October 15th, which were mixed relative to our estimates (read our note here), but nevertheless consolidated production was up 6% sequentially. Today’s results were quite strong with APM generating $35.4M in OCF (before WC) vs. $27.4M expected. Management stated that it is on track for the low end of guidance. We are maintaining our BUY rating and our C$11.00/share target price on APM.
