Greenlight Capital made the following comment about Teck Resources Limited (NYSE:TECK) in its Q4 2022 investor letter:

“Teck Resources Limited (NYSE:TECK) benefited from higher metallurgical coal prices and the anticipation of its new copper mine coming on line around the end of 2022. During the year, the shares advanced from $28.82 to $37.82. 2022 earnings are expected to be $7.15, well above the $4.68 estimated at the beginning of the year. In 2023, current consensus assumes lower metallurgical coal prices and lower earnings of $4.20 per share. The outlook for 2024 is better, as TECK will have scaled production at the new copper mine. Even so, consensus estimates assume even lower commodity prices and sit at $4.13 of EPS. Though the estimates rely on commodity prices that are quite difficult to predict, we expect that higher copper prices should drive upside surprises. Even without that, the shares remain inexpensive at only 9x 2023 consensus earnings. Finally, with the large capital project completed, we expect sizable capital returns to shareholders in the near term.”
