Positive, Scotia Maintains $5 target and SO

Valuation: 50% 1.20x NAV and 50% 7.0x 2021E CFPS

Latest Research (July 17, 2020):

OUR TAKE: Positive. With this note, we have included the results of the Waihi District study into our model, boosting our total corporate NAV by ~8%. We now value Waihi at $590M (C$1.16/sh) using the Scotiabank GBM price deck with LT gold at $1,400/oz.
Initial mine life with all Waihi deposits runs to 2036 with total production of 2.2 Moz Au (~138koz Au/yr) with LOM (Life-of-Mine) AISC of $627/oz; peak production reaches ~300 koz in 2027/28. The company stated the after-tax NPV is $665M with an IRR of 51% using $1,500/oz gold; notably, even at a lower gold price of $1,300/oz, we estimate a robust project NPV of ~$446M and an IRR at ~32%.
OGC noted that permits for the WKP UG, Martha open pit and additional tailings storage are on the critical path with the process to begin in 2H/20. Following model revisions, our C$5 price target and SO rating are maintained.
