-- Stifel Canada on Friday maintained its buy rating on the shares of G Mining Ventures (GMIN.TO) and its C$65.00 price target after the company agreed to acquire G2 Goldfields (GTWO.TO) for shares worth C$3 billion.
"G Mining Ventures (GMIN) announced a definitive agreement to acquire all outstanding shares of G2 Goldfields in an all-share transaction valued at about C$3.0 billion on a fully diluted equity basis. The transaction strategically consolidates GMIN's fully permitted Oko West and GTWO's Oko-Ghanie, creating a tier-one gold mining hub in Guyana with the potential to produce 500+Koz of gold per year on LOM average basis, including Oko West expected production of approximately 350Koz/yr (FS June 2025) and Oko-Ghanie expected production of 228Koz/yr (PEA December 2025). We estimate the transaction values GTWO at 0.77x on P/NAV and is 6.5% accretive to our GMIN NAVPS including synergies, but excluding the 25%-30% throughput expansion potential at Oko West (1.1% accretive excluding synergies). GMIN plans to move quickly through technical studies with an intention to release a technical report in 2027, targeting expanded production by H1/29," analyst Ralph Profiti wrote.
