Canaccord Genuity upgraded Eldorado Gold Corp (NYSE: EGO) from Hold to Buy with a price target of C$8.50. Analyst Tony Lesiak believes its risk/reward profile has become favorable.
"ELD has underperformed its peers 6% on one month and 22% YTD. The share weakness was not unexpected given the potential for increasing concern with respect to the election cycle and hence permitting in Greece and Turkey. Some 34% of ELD’s un-risked NAV is subject to permitting/development risk," said Lesiak.
"ELD is currently trading at 0.68x our risked NAV estimate versus peers at 0.84x, – a 19% discount. On an un-risked (our best case) basis, the discount increases to 27%. If we fully exclude higher risk assets Perama, Eastern Dragon, Certej, and Sapes, we estimate that ELD is trading at 0.77x NAV, at an 8% discount to the group. If we further exclude the Kisladag expansion and Skouries (a severe outcome) from our analysis, the P/NAV increases to 1.07x, a 27% premium. On a balance of probabilities, there appears to be a clear risk/reward opportunity that we discuss further in this note," he added.
