RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:ts9222I see you have better reading and math comprehension skills than some of the others on this lsg board :)
How did you get the edv debt to equity ratio? From Q2 total equity is 494,5m. 264/494.5 = 0.53
It's dropping fast from last quarter as debt is paid down.
Enterprise value is useful if another company is taking over lsg/edv by taking on the debt as well. Shareholders don't directly take on the debt when paying the share price.
If you must use enterprise value and say both companies are almost equally valued, then edv still has 3X higher production oz, and the much higher earnings and cash flow i quoted in US dollars before must be multiplied by 1.3 to make edv earnings and cashflow even higher.
LSG
Net earning $1.7 m
Operating cash flow $26.4m
EDV (converted to Canadian)
Net earning $42.9m
Operating cash flow $60.06m
If gold does rebound, edv still stands to make more with 3X higher production.

Just saw I made a minor mistake in my calcs
210 market cap of EDV is already in CAD, I mistakenly converted it again, only Debt and Cash needs to be converted
The real Enterprise Value comes out at 485 Million CAD
Both companies are almost equally valued!
One last word on EDV: EDV Debt to Equity ratio is 0.955!! For LSG the ratio is 0.219 !!!
In this gold bear market low debt level is king!
