Expert Comments:
Brian Szeto, Stonecap Securities (5/16/13) "B2Gold Corp. had a number of one-time adjustments during the quarter, but they were mostly related to the acquisition of CGA Mining Ltd; however, after backing out these one-time items, both adjusted EPS and CFPS were in line with our expectations. We continue to expect that the company will have a strong year operationally with each of its three operations improving throughout the year."
Morning Coffee (5/16/13) "B2Gold Corp. reported solid Q1/13 results that saw the company earn $0.07/share, which was ahead of our estimate of $0.05 and consensus estimates of $0.06. . .as of March 31, 2013, the company's balance sheet remained strong with $120.7M in cash. . .additional value has been surfaced through sale of a 1.2% net smelter royalty on the Brucejack gold project owned by Pretium Resources Inc. to Franco-Nevada Corp. for $45M in cash."
Chris Thompson, Raymond James (5/16/13) "We rate shares of B2Gold Corp. Outperform and are maintaining our $4.75 target price. . .Q1/13 financial results were in line with estimates and consensus. . .we continue to view the company as being well positioned to ride out any period of continued metal price weakness, supported by a strong balance sheet and an experienced operating team."
Jamie Spratt, Clarus Securities (5/16/13) "B2Gold Corp. reported another solid quarter with Q1/13 results that were ahead of our financial and operational estimates; pre-reported companywide production was 79.7 Koz at cash operating costs of $722/oz. . .in our view, B2Gold remains a top pick in the intermediate space based on a fully funded growth profile, compelling exploration upside and a proven management team at the helm. In the current environment, we also believe that B2Gold should be a go to name given its mix of quality low cost assets and balance sheet strength."
Michael Gray, Macquarie Capital Markets (5/15/13) "B2Gold Corp. released Q1/13 earnings before market open, delivering another solid quarter. Adjusted EPS of $0.07 was a slight beat compared to consensus of $0.06. . .we continue to rate the company with an Outperform recommendation and $3.50 target. . .B2Gold is our top pick amongst the intermediate producers."
