Research Report

The new figure takes into account recently determined economics and upside of the world's largest undeveloped gold project along with future precious metals prices, noted a ROTH Capital Partners report.

ROTH Capital Partners raised its target price on Seabridge Gold Inc. (SEA:TSX; SA:NYSE.MKT) to $37 per share from $32, based primarily on results of two recent technical reports and updated precious metals price forecasts, reported analyst Joe Reagor in an August 17, 2022 research note.

Seabridge's current price, in comparison, is around $17.22 per share.

Reagor discussed the three primary factors behind the new price target.

One factor is the mine plan specifics outlined in the PFS, which reflected improved economics and which Reagor updated his Seabridge model to reflect, he noted. Incorporating those changes boosted the discounted cash flow (DCF) valuation by about $3 per share, he added. (ROTH bases its valuation of Seabridge on a combination of an annualized DCF model and a sum of the parts valuation.)

The revised mine operation components include the average milling rate and the estimated mine life, which, respectively, the analyst increased and lowered in the model.

The second driver is the additional upside Kerr and Iron Cap are expected to provide at KSM, which was highlighted in the just-released preliminary economic assessment of those deposits, wrote Reagor. Assuming Seabridge ultimately will own about 30% of the $5.8 billion KSM project after a likely future joint venture, the analyst assigned Kerr and Iron Cap a value of $870 million, half of the 30% amount.

The third factor affecting the previous price target is new gold and silver price forecasts, Reagor relayed. Updating the Seabridge model with ROTH's new long-term prices for the precious metals increased the DCF valuation by about $2 per share.

These cumulative model revisions resulted in a $5 per share increase to ROTH's price target on Seabridge. The investment maintains its Buy rating on the Canadian gold resource firm.
