RESEARCH THEMES
Our Top Junior Producer Pick:
Victoria Gold (VGCX): The company is in start-up/ramp-up mode at its Eagle gold project in the Yukon. While we tend to shy away during the risky start-
up phase, so far it’s looking pretty good. We are also impressed at the exploration results on the surrounding land package and believe there is significant
blue-sky upside on that front. Paradigm Capital (07Jan20)
We see VGCX trading at a 0.53x Adj. P/NAV multiple vs. junior gold producer peers trading in a wide range but averaging at ~0.67x NAV multiple. As such,
we see VGCX trading at a discount to peers which reflects potential for a re-rating should Eagle achieve and/or surpass expectations. We maintain our
BUY rating but increase our target to C$16.25 (previously C$14.00) derived by applying a 0.9x multiple on our NAV estimate at US$1,650/oz Au.
PI Financial (11May20)
With this note, we are updating our target price to $14.00 from $12.00 to reflect the updated feasibility and ramp-up progress at Eagle. In our view, 2020
is a potential breakout year for Victoria Gold that should drive a re-rating as it aims to achieve commercial production in Q2/20 and graduate to a
producer targeting roughly 205,000oz by year-end 2020. BMO Capital Markets (18Dec19)
While Victoria is a single asset producer with a levered balance sheet, the stock remains exceptionally cheap (0.38x NAV) and if they can successfully ramp
up production over the next couple of quarters, we believe a significant multiple re-rate, or takeover, is on the cards. In 2021, a full year of production
13
would translate to FCF of approximately C$153 MM at a gold price of $1,600/oz, which would represent an FCF yield of 32%. Cormark (12May20)Board & Officers: Experienced Team
