GoGold Resources (TSX:GGD) Could Be 70% Undervalued After Los Ricos South Construction Start

GoGold Resources has posted a 1 month share price return of 50.34% and a year to date share price return of 50.34%, while the 1 year total shareholder return of 64.53% and 3 year total shareholder return of over 2x suggest longer term holders have already seen substantial gains as expectations around growth potential and project execution have shifted.

Another View: What The Market Is Already Pricing In

The rock-bottom narrative value on GoGold Resources runs into a very different signal once current pricing is checked. On a P/E of 29.4x, the stock trades well above the Canadian Metals and Mining industry average of 17x and slightly above its own fair ratio of 29.3x.

That kind of premium can reflect the projected 57.4% annual revenue growth and 49.5% annual earnings growth that analysts expect, but it also means less room for error if Los Ricos South or the wider plan slips. For investors weighing the 70% undervalued narrative, the question is how much execution and commodity risk is already paid for at this higher multiple.
