Stockchase Opinions

Alice Tsang Sandstorm Gold Ltd. SSL-T SELL Sep 13, 2013

With the uncertainty of the gold space, she would tend to gravitate towards higher-quality names such as Franco-Nevada (FNV-T). The last couple of deals they have done have caused some investors to step back.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Mar 05/19, Up 11%) Very very well-run and well-financed. Carries fine assets. It's a great small-cap miner.
BUY

The analysts are very slow to raising their earnings forecasts with the price of gold. The rebound in earnings in some of these companies will be really something. He likes the producers as opposed to the commodity. Producers give you leverage due to the fast rising earnings. He likes the Juniors as well as ABX-T.

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Nov 20/19, Up 8%) It's lagged the sector, because it's a royalty company. You need to hold producers and royalties in a portfolio. With royalties, you expect more asset growth in the value of these assets. These companies help finish financing and building a mine for a producer. Once that mine is running, the royalty takes a cash flow off the top that the royalty company hands to shareholders, plus the value of the resource/metal. As that value rises, so will the cash flow. SSL continues to buyback shares, have a lot of cash flow, and are great value at current prices. He has a $13 target and it's a hold.
HOLD
Likes it. A hold, with a $9 target. Let it run, reassess down the road. Will benefit from the rise in the commodity. Diversified projects, no mining production risk. Long-term, will do really well. Right now, has to catch up to inflation.
TOP PICK
Well run company which should experience a sudden and dramatic increase in cash flow. Another example of the sum of the parts is worth more than the whole. Turkish asset will soon generate cash and their Turkish partners are high quality. 9 Buys, 3 Holds, 0 Sells. (Analysts’ price target is $12.25)
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Feb 28/22, Down 7%) Large transaction required an increase of the issues outstanding. Good management. Increased liquidity because of increased size portends it will be a leader in the space. Price decline means he can buy more.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Feb 28/22, Down 7%)

Disappointed in capital allocation recently. 
Recent issuance of stock below price of latest buybacks.
Nevertheless, has been buying shares.
Will continue to own.
Expecting cash flow from Turkish assets soon. 

BUY

He recently upgraded to Buy. He'd been concerned about capital allocation strategy, mainly doing equity financing to buy back shares at high prices. These concerns have largely passed. Cashflow from Turkish operations will begin to come through and have a potentially transforming effect. Malaise has passed, it's back in business.

BUY

Owns shares in company. Would recommend holding. Free cash flow is expanding. Debt a small concern, but not worth noting. 

BUY

Mistakes in capital deployment were made about 3 years ago. Believes Turkiye mine will go into production, and cashflow will really change this company. Now using FCF to pay down debt rapidly. Either share price goes up, or company is taken over.
