Nevada Copper Corp T.NCU

A righteous re-post: 1 more day of Tax-Loss selling =buy

[Notgnu]

WIll NCU start to move significantly up once tax loss selling pressure is off. Nothing is  certian but I think some significant share price gains are coming during Q1. 

It is mportant to keep in mind that future profit is now over 60% higher than 4 1/2 months ago (last financing)

Warning:
There is a bitter old dogg here named bogfit or Bog -Z-adolt, boggdogg, Comrade bogdossian, blog-fit and the stinky old mutt. Comrade bogdossian wants everyone warned about me: Notgnu. See risk disclosure at bottom of post. 

Some reasons I own NCU shares:

• Trading at 0.36 X book value... crazy IMO
• No insider selling for 10 yrs 
• Fallout from Covid shut down depressed the price dramatically
• Safe & friendly jurisdiction
• First new in 10 yrs USA copper producer
• Copper demand guy is POTUS
• Copper already running up ahead of expectations
• Big leverage to copper price gain
• New mill passed to run at design of 5000 tpd 
• Full copper production next 8 to 12 weeks
• Hoisting and ventilation shafts almost completed 
• Hedged only about 25% over next 12 months
• Vaccine news removes much Covid uncertainty
• Copper is 59% higher marginal profit than at last financing (all in cost $1.86)
• Tax loss selling soon over (only 1 sale day left)
• Consolidation may happen (I am in favour: margin can be had + institutions can buy)
• Debt financing done to access high grade stopes
• Banks willing to lend at reasonable rates (interbank rate + 4.9%)
• Highly experienced CEO on board... granted 3,500,000 rights, which align him with shareholders. 

 

 

Interpretation of 2020 share price collapse:

 

Covid hit and the mine was shut down. It was bad timing in terms of funds to get production up and running. Cash was not there and it looked like another dilution was to happen
 

Selling came in with very little buying support. Then the situation changed for the better yet investors are still scared (and some are scarred.)

Two methods to asses share price to value:
FIRST:
 

• Take NCU's $1.89 cost per pound from the last presentation. 
• Subtract cost from price of copper then = $2.95 - $1.89 = $1.06 profit back then.
• Compare to now:  $3.54 copper - $1.89 cost  =  $1.65 profit now
• Increase in profit since financing ($0.14) is   64%   ($1.06 divided by $1.65)

SECOND:

• Take NCU Corporate Presentation numbers = $80,000,000 annual cash-flow, divide by $1.31 ($3.20 minus $1.89 cost) = 61 million pounds of copper per year.

• Sub in your own numbers and then post your share valuation 

• Take copper price now (minus $3.20 )=  $________X  61 million pounds = addition to the yearly cash flow above what Pala had to base his purchases on (Example $0.40 X 61 million = $24.4 million)

• Multiply the $24.4 million X your cashflow muliple number. (Example $24.4m X 10 = $244m)

• Take the $244m and divide by shares out of 1.5b (Example $244m / 1.5b = $0.16)

• In this example add the $0.16 to whatever you think the company share price was worth before (Example Pala's $0.55 + $0.16 = $0.71 ....or.... some lower number like $0.27 (half of Pala)  $0.27 + $0.16 = $0.43

• In any case $0.12 per share comes out a steal (yes, IMO) compared to $0.71 or $0.43.

• Using a 10 X cash-flow the share price is even below the additional $0.16 added by the copper price increase giving NCU a negative <$.04> price by this measure!

 

Insider average costs:

 

Pala / Iorich    60% owner            > $0.55 

NCU director Nutter                     > $0.32

NCU director Albanese                > $ 0.41 

NCU director Brown                    > $0.31

NCU chairman Gill                       > $0.21

NCU senior VP Joseph                > $.32

NCU director Cochrane                > $0.67

 

1 year cashflow equals current market cap of NCU

Snots... i forsee big problems ahead if the lead hand gets caught banging the superintendents wife.... the super could turn to booze to fight the pain.... then when the nighttime binging becomes the daytime medicine.... then mistakes are bound to happen... start grinding the overburden and wasting the paydirt....

[Notgnu]

Damn fish, you are right again. I failed to notice that as a potential weakness. I will book a flight down there (and a donkey cart out to Yerington) to go spank her asz and make sure she knows not to wander. On second thought, she might make a good barmaid at the saloon though... perhaps she can keep the whole crew happy. Cheers, N.

Best give the Ole' Dogg his rabies shots while down there too. He's been getting active in the early mornings again running around, snarling, arffffing and woooffing out a control again... He's kinda settle down for the evening doing his assigned homework (better be anyway) in exchange for an extra plate of kibble come new year. N.
