Reported 8 cents (per share) Earnings, but BROKE EVEN* before adjustments.

Adjustments from things like "hedging profits" are all of the earnings

========

*Would have been $3mn, if you addback acquisition expenses, that's just under 1 cent per share - disappointing !

Have you looked at Ghana based Golden Star (GSS) ?

 

300,000oz producer. Cash costs are higher, and the balance sheet is a not as clean as Endeavour. But, they are Half the market cap of Endeavour, and chart is bullish (far more leaveraged than EDV).

 

They also have plans to increase production by another 90,000oz's (like EDV).

Here's the chart : GSS-chart

 

It could reverse here to - at $1.63 / down 8.94% yesterday (versus a 4.96% drop in GDXJ)*

 

It will take me more time to "dig" into the fundamentals

 

*EDV.t fell $0.08 / a -3.56% drop yesterday

Canaccord's comments on this latest Quarter

 

Endeavour Mining reported adjusted EPS of US$0.07, beating Canaccord Genuity Mining Analyst Nicholas Campbell’s forecast of US$0.01 on lower operating costs and lower than expected taxes.

 

Guidance for year for the company’s Youga, Nzema and Tabakoto mines remained unchanged. The combined guidance for these three mines is approximately 300,000 ounces of gold in 2012. Campbell forecasts growth to 324,000 ounces in 2013 with the ramp up of its Tabakoto mine, growing to 432,000 ounces of gold in 2014 with its Agbaou mine beginning to contribute and Tabakoto ramping up. For 2015 Campbell forecasts production of 477,000 ounces of gold.

 

Before 2015, the company has further organic growth through the development of the Hounde project (PEA expected in December) and potential contributions from the Ouare, Nzema sulphide and Kofi projects. With these projects, Campbell expects that EDV has the potential to ramp up to a 600,000+ ounce per year production rate by 2016-17.

 

Based on Campbell’s current forecasts, EDV is trading at :

3.3x 2013E CFPS, 2.3x 2014E CFPS and 0.45x P/NAV compared with the junior producer average of

8.0x 2013E CFPS, 7.0x 2014E CFPS and 0.68x P/NAV.

 

EDV has one of the best growth profiles in the junior gold space, they have done an excellent job at cost containment in West Africa and they continue to trade at a very low valuation.

Endeavour Mining Corp.

EDV : TSX : C$2.14 | C$870.9M | Speculative Buy, C$4.80 ↑

======================

 

* Strong Q3/12 results; maintaining SPEC BUY rating; increasing target to C$4.80 (from C$4.70)

 

Nicholas Campbell, Canaccord Genuity

 

Investment recommendation

We maintain our SPECULATIVE BUY recommendation on the shares of Endeavour Mining with a revised target price of C$4.80 per share, up from $4.70.

 

Investment highlights

==========

* Endeavour reported Q3 EPS of ($0.00). However, after adjusting for $18.4 million in unusual charges, the adjusted EPS was US$0.08, beating our estimate of $0.01 on slightly higher gold sales, lower costs and lower than expected taxes. In Q3, EDV sold 50,314 ounces of gold at an average cash cost of US$688/ounce, beating our forecast of 48,018 ounces of gold at a cash cost of $722/ounce.

 

* The Youga mine had a particularly strong quarter, producing 22,526 ounces of gold at a cash cost of US$565/oz. We were forecasting production of 21,100 ounces of gold at a cash cost of US$683 per ounce with the mine outperforming on temporarily reduced mining rates and higher than expected throughput.

 

* Nzema production of 26,972 ounces of gold was in line with our forecast; however, cash operating costs of US$688/oz (excluding purchases ore) were lower than our forecast of US$723/oz.

 

Valuation

With the Avion acquisition completed last month, Q4 will be the first quarter of integrated financials for the combined company. We are forecasting Q4 production of 72,000 ounces of gold at a cash cost of US$789/oz. With the ramp up of Tabakoto and development of the Agbaou project, we forecast growth to 431,000 ounces of gold in 2014 at a cash cost of US$796/oz. After adjusting our model for the Q3 results, our estimate of peak gold NAVPS (5%, US$2,000/oz Au) increased to $6.06, up from $5.84. We continue to value the shares of Endeavour based on a 0.8x multiple to our peak gold price estimate of NAVPS (5%, US$2,000/oz).

 

We estimate that EDV is currently trading at 3.1x 2013E CFPS, 2.3x 2014E CFPS, and 0.45x P/NAV (5%, spot), compared with the junior producer average of 8.0x 2013E CFPS, 7.0x 2014E CFPS, and 0.68x P/NAV(5%, spot).

Endeavour Mining Delivers 310,000 Oz Gold Production Exceeding 2012 Guidance and Provides 2013 Forecast

 

January 22, 2013

 

Endeavour Mining Corporation ("Endeavour" or the "Corporation") (TSX:EDV, ASX:EVR, OTCQX:EDVMF ) announces total annual production for 2012 of 310,778 ounces of gold exceeding the 2012 production guidance range of 282,000 to 304,000 ounces. For 2013, Endeavour expects gold production in the range of 310,000 to 345,000 ounces at a cash cost per ounce (excluding royalties) of $790 to $830, with all gold sold at spot prices due to recent de-hedging transactions. Additional near-term production growth of over 100,000 ozs per year is expected from the Agbaou Gold Mine which is currently in construction (Q1 2014 completion). A recently completed Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) shows potential for 160,000 ozs per year from the Houndé Gold Project (Burkina Faso) in 2016.

 

(All amounts in US dollars unless otherwise indicated)

 

Neil Woodyer, CEO, stated

 

"2012 was a strong year of growth for your company. We continued to increase the scale of the business with the successful acquisition of Avion in October 2012, and we delivered above guidance gold production for the quarter and the year.

 

Agbaou construction is on schedule for completion in Q1 2014 with commitments to date on-track at 46% of budget. Expansion of the Tabakoto mill is progressing on schedule for completion by the end of Q1 2013, with ramp-up in the following quarter.

2013 Guidance

 

Endeavour's 2013 gold production is forecast to be 310,000 to 345,000 ounces at a cash cost per ounce (excluding royalties) of $790 to $830.

 

Table 4 2013 Production and Cash Cost Guidance

============

Tabakoto, Mali : 310,777 : 310- 345,000 : $ 790 - $ 830 :

 

 

Forecast 2013 Costs as Compared to 2012

  • Nzema: Cost increase is primarily driven by higher mining costs due to increasing requirements for drilling and blasting as Salman moves into transition ore, the additional 9 km trucking distance of ore from Anwia-Teleku Bokazo, and increased labour costs in Ghana. Gold production from Anwia-Teleku Bokazo pit started in December 2012 at a lower rate than planned for Q1 2013 due slower than expected access from the community to start mining in this area, however, it is anticipated that the rate will improve during subsequent quarters.
  • Youga: Cost increase is primarily driven by an approximate 15% increase in the total tonnes to be mined and a 5% local payroll increase.
  • Tabakoto: The operation has undertaken an in-depth review of the organization, working practices and management reporting systems as part of the integration program, with a specific focus on reducing operating cost while increasing production.

For 2013, Endeavour has a budgeted capital spending plan of $207 million, including:

  • $17 million of sustaining capital which is equivalent to between $50 and $55 per ounce of forecast 2013 production. The sustaining capital includes: $3 million at Nzema, $9.5 million at Tabakoto and $4.5 million at Youga.
  • $190 million of development capital, with the most significant items being $106 million for Agbaou construction, $7 million for Tabakoto mill expansion and $29 million for underground ramp and access development at the Segala and Tabakoto underground mines, $17 million for the Anwia-Teleku Bokazo access and resettlement at Nzema, and $12 million for the Houndé Gold Project feasibility study.
