RE:RE:RE:Pathetic SP reaction compared to other producers

RE:RE:RE:Pathetic SP reaction compared to other producers  GG,   actually  based on Q1   numbers   production  by PVG    is something less than  900  ouinces per day.  Another two weeks and we will have Q2  numbers and present indications are that they will be similiar to   Q1.

However given  the recent strength in  POG,  perhaps it is time to put some ideas together as to  future cash  flows.   Lets assume   that by xmas all the necessary mill/ mine upgrades have been completed and  milling rate is 1.4  million  tonnes per year.  Lets assume that   head grade averages  10 gram.......it  may be more and it may be less  .   That  equates to 420,000  ounces annually  or  407,000  ounces  making an allowance  for 97%   mill recovery.

At  an assumed revenue  of  $1350   per ounce ,  Thats  $  550  million cash  flow  or  $ 1.5  million   daily.  , Costs.   of  mining  are   $250   per tonne.or $350  million annually.  Thats an  annual "profit "   of  $200  million.  Debt repayments  will probably be around  $90  million  per year ,  leaving   $110 million.  With   181   million  shares outstanding  thats around   60  cents per share.

Assume the P/E  ratio  gets to  25,  the same level  as KL   today.  That  computes to a share price of   $15.

So  investors   today  have to ask themselves  are they  prepared to  wait  5 years  for  a SP of  $15    or  are there better  opportunities  in  say ,  KL  or  elsewhere.

Now  POG  is the wild card here.  If it goes to  say  $1500  everything needs reevaluating  but  going back to  $1200    would  dramatically  influence these numbers as well.
