LIBERUM: Centamin - Q1’23 better than we expected; FY23 guidance reite...

Last week, Q1’23 production came in at 106koz @ US$1,348/oz AISC (All-In Sustaining Costs), and FY23 guidance of 450-480koz @ US$1,250-1,400/oz AISC was reiterated. Centamin had previously flagged production to be H2-weighted, but Q1 production and AISC were better than we had hoped. We have reduced our AISC profile as a result, but the savings are offset by changes to the way we model profit-share and cost-recovery at Sukari. Our target price falls to 93p (from 94p); we reiterate SELL.

Apparently, previous opposition stemmed from dissatisfaction with the split of revenues accruing to the province, which issue has been resolved. If Newmont’s blockbuster takeover of JV partner Newcrest goes ahead, Harmony would have first right to acquire Newcrest’s 50% interest, should this be put up for sale.

LIBERUM: African Golds - Caledonia and Shanta still our favourites for...

Consolidation in the gold space is a hot topic at the moment, particularly given Newmont’s approach to Newcrest. We believe Caledonia and Shanta to be potential targets; Centamin could look to merge with a Tier II/III peer; and Endeavour is unlikely to be a buyer for now. For 2023, we have advocated selected smaller African Gold producers which feature material upcoming catalysts to outperform – a strategy which has worked well so far, with the exception of Centamin (which we now rate SELL on ab...
