Osisko Mining Corp (OSK-T)
Osisko is a Canada-focused mining company operating its Canadian Malartic project in Quebec's Abitibi Belt since April 2011 under the leadership of CEO Sean Roosen. Canadian Malartic is a past-producing property the company acquired in 2004, and has since established open-pittable Proven and Probable Reserves of 10.7 million ounces of gold. In August 2011 the company acquired a second advanced gold project through the acquisition of Brett Resources and the company's 6.6 million inferred gold ounce Hammond Reef project. Osisko has also optioned a number of early stage gold exploration projects in Ontario and Quebec as it attempts to develop a fuller project pipeline. In November 2013 the company announced production of its one millionth gold ounce at the Canadian Malartic mine, and shortly thereafter in January 2014 Osisko received an unsolicited takeover offer from Goldcorp of $2.26 cash and ).146 ofa Goldcorp share per Osisko share, roughly a $2.6 billion value at the time of the offer. In April 2014 a counteroffer appeared from Yamana Gold, which agreed to acquire 50% of Osisko's assets for $441 million in cash and $929 million in Yamana shares. An additional agreement to sell a metals stream on the Canadian Malartic mine provides an additional $550 million in cash to be distributed to Osisko shareholders. Later in April, Goldcorp subsequently increased its bid to the equivalent of $7.65 per share in cash and stock. In turn, Yamana returned with a joint offer with Agnico Eagle, valueing Osisko at $3.9 billion, roughly $8.15 per share, including the value of New Osisko shares which will hold the company's Mexican properties and some cash. |
Key to Understanding IPV Charts and Spec Value Hunter Tables
An IPV Chart is a graphical presentation of a Spec Value Hunter table that has been constructed according to the Rational Speculation Model developed by John Kaiser. The IPV Chart allows speculators to identify which projects offer poor, fair or good speculative value in both absolute and relative terms. The speculative value depends on the project stage, the project's implied value as calculated by the company's fully diluted capitalization, stock price and net project interest, and the dream target deemed appropriate for the project. A dream target is what a project would be worth in discounted cash flow terms once in production. |
Green background indicates the dream target judged appropriate for this play by John Kaiser - otherwise unranked. |
Poor Speculative Value - |
Fair Speculative Value - |
Good Speculative Value - |
Note: narrow arrows indicate IPV is outside the fair value channel but within 25% of the fair value limits |
