最新消息:巴里克推進北美黃金資產IPO,並宣布高階主管任命

By

-- (第二段和第三段新增加拿大國家銀行評論,最後一段更新股價) 巴里克礦業公司(NYSE:B,多倫多證券交易所代碼:ABX.TO)週二表示,該公司已任命多位高管,並更新了其計劃成立一家新公司並持有其北美黃金資產的少數股權的首次公開募股(IPO)計劃。 對此,加拿大國家銀行表示,其「跑贏大盤」評級維持不變,理由是巴里克目前的估值偏低、Fourmile項目未來的進展以及其北美資產即將實現的價值。 「Fourmile計畫的勘探進展是公司重要的價值驅動因素,鑑於先前宣布的馬裡Loulo-Gounkoto計畫已得到解決,這進一步支持了公司估值的提升。隨著公司重新聚焦於提高美洲(以內華達州為中心)的黃金產量,並持續改進運營,我們認為未來公司有望實現更可持續的估值。」該銀行補充道。」該銀行補充道。 加拿大國家銀行表示,其72.50加元的目標價是基於100%加權的6.50倍EV/2026E EBITDA目標倍數計算得出,這意味著其市淨率(P/NAV)為1.07倍。該銀行指出,巴里克黃金目前的EV/2026E EBITDA倍數為4.8倍,NAV倍數為0.78倍,而同業大型黃金公司的相應倍數分別為6.6倍和1.01倍。 巴里克黃金週二在聲明中表示,該公司已任命一支專門負責北美業務的高階主管團隊。 「他們已經成功合作數月。團隊由經驗豐富、業績卓著的巴里克資深人士組成,他們在營運、勘探和開發方面擁有深厚的專業知識。」聲明補充道。 該團隊向巴里克黃金總裁兼首席執行官馬克·希爾匯報工作,成員包括:首席營運官蒂姆·克里布;首席財務官韋塞爾·哈曼;首席法務官兼公司秘書喬·赫肯多恩;首席技術官梅根·蒂博爾斯。首席人力資源長理查德·巴利 (Richard Barley)、勘探副總裁哈維爾·奧圖扎爾 (Javier Ortuzar) 和可持續發展副總裁阿曼達·斯蒂恩森 (Amanda Steensen) 出席了發布會。 巴里克表示,北美巴里克公司將包含四個位於北美頂級礦業管轄區的一級黃金資產:內華達黃金礦區的卡林 (Carlin)、科爾特斯 (Cortez) 和綠松石嶺 (Turquoise Ridge) 金礦,以及多明尼加共和國的普韋布洛維耶霍 (Pueblo Viejo) 金礦。預計到 2025 年,北美巴里克公司旗下資產的黃金產量約為 200 萬盎司,歸屬於巴里克公司的權益。 北美巴里克公司還將包括巴里克公司全資擁有的位於內華達黃金礦區 (NGM) 附近的福邁爾 (Fourmile) 金礦項目。巴里克公司表示:“福邁爾金礦是本世紀最重要的黃金發現之一,並將成為北美巴里克公司資產組合中重要的高品位、低成本增長機會。預計福邁爾金礦最終將根據《內華達黃金礦區合資協議》併入內華達黃金礦區合資企業。” 巴里克公司表示,已確定其北美資產首次公開發行(IPO)的最佳結構。巴里克北美公司預計將在紐約進行主要上市,並在多倫多進行二次上市,但需通過美國證券交易委員會(SEC)的常規註冊程序和加拿大招股說明書的資格審查。巴里克補充說,該公司正按計劃推進IPO,預計將於2026年底前完成,但需視市場和其他條件以及必要的審批情況而定。 公司預計,此次IPO將遵守巴里克合資協議中的所有適用承諾。 「巴里克的領導層一直在與紐蒙特礦業公司(Newmont)的對口官員會面,討論如何提升紐蒙特礦業公司的業績、擬議的IPO以及Fourmile礦的出售時間表。雖然巴里克可以單方面推進IPO,但它正與合資夥伴密切合作,以確保為各方創造並最大化價值。」 巴里克股票昨在加拿大下跌1.2%。該股昨天在美國交易時段下跌1%,截至美國盤前交易時段,下跌2%。

Research Alert: Visa Mar-q: A Blowout Quarter As Consumer Spending Accelerates

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:Visa posted excellent Mar-Q results with adj. EPS of $3.31 vs. $2.76 a year ago, beating consensus by $0.21. Revenue of $11.2B rose 17% Y/Y, beating consensus by 4% and marking the strongest growth since 2022. We view this as an excellent result, as concerns surrounding AI disruption or geopolitical uncertainty did not manifest in Visa's performance. Adjusted operating margin held firm at 68.0%, a good result given prior guidance indicated likely margin compression. Strong performance was broad based with data processing revenue up 18% to $5.5B and other revenue surging 41% to $1.3B, reflecting successful expansion in value-added services. Cross-border volume excluding intra-Europe advanced 11% on a constant currency (CC) basis while payments volume grew 9%. Geographic strength was led by LAC (+14% CC), CEMEA (+13% CC), and Europe (+11% CC), with encouraging acceleration in the U.S. to 8%. We applaud the board's authorization of a new $20B multi-year share repurchase program given Visa's muted valuation.
