Most Popular Narrative: 39.2% Undervalued
According to the most followed narrative on OceanaGold, the current share price of CA$39.74 sits well below an assessed fair value of CA$65.33. That gap is built on detailed assumptions about production, costs and how the market prices mid tier gold producers.
OceanaGold represents a deep value mid tier gold producer trading at a discount to peers due to its elevated cost profile and mixed jurisdiction exposure. We believe the company offers re rating potential from cost normalization, strong leverage to gold prices and visible free cash flow generation.
The narrative is based on a full net asset value build, mine by mine. It incorporates higher all in sustaining costs, a specific production range and a re rating in the valuation multiple. The result is a fair value well above today’s market price, but it all depends on those operating and pricing assumptions remaining intact.
Result: Fair Value of CA$65.33 (UNDERVALUED)
