WOW

Stellar numbers. This company has been run flawlessly with some tremendous results to back it up. When (not if) the PM sector turn up, Silvercrest should surely be one of the stars.JMO

  A real candidate for a take over. I hope it doesn't happen, as La Joya will be a game changer when all drillled up.

When do these gold hedges end? Its too bad they cannot sell their gold at spot. Was it done to appease the bankers?

Thats fine, but this loan is paid off. So, why the discounted sales to Macquerie into 2014. Why would management sign a stupid deal like this. Because they only care about getting themselves into a job that can make them rich. This deal does not benefit shareholders.

The hedging contracts are separate from the loan. So even if you pay the loan, the hedging contracts are still outstanding. The lender requires the hedging to make sure that even if commodity prices fall, they can get back their money since the hedging would cover up the loan.   Now that they've got a cashflow going, you can be sure that they won't take the same kind of loan on their ...more
