Using the Stage Analysis Model
On the monthly chart there were 4 major rejections along the green resistance line. Last month we saw a clear breakout of major resistance. The target is roughly 85% from here or around $20 Canadian. Valuation metrics suggest this will occur with gold near 3k, give or take. The company has been in stage 2 since 2018 or so.
BUY
Using the Kitty DCF Model
First the good business trends…
Stock repurchases
Growing cash
G&A expenses under control
Solvency scores are outstanding
Dividend is covered
No significant debt
The bad trends…
There is room for a higher dividend
(not pictured) the company has a very small insider ownership.
The Forecast
Assumptions:
We used the free cash flow at the current gold futures price (slightly conservative)
We used a 300 bps load to cover capex and add additional conservative pad
We projected the company for only 10 years, since their two major mines have 8 years of life left. This prices the company at current production (excludes the value of future exploration and development… you get that for free)
Market Price:
The forecast price of $9.54 is based on the OTC USD ticker DPMLF. We’d recommend limit orders only on OTC, but there should be plenty of volume for the retail investor to add to the portfolio.
BUY
Conclusion:
Buy and hold strategies and gold miners go together about as well as oil and water. Mining is capital intensive and gold is scarce. That is to say, there are very few companies that consistently make money at less than peak cycles. Dundee has proven it can be one of those. It has moved to a viable cash flowing business stream in advance of what we believe is long term gold bull market.
