Pan African Resources (AIM: PAF)

Last close As at 26/10/2024

GBP0.37

▲ −0.75 (−1.99%)

Market capitalisation

GBP707m

Pan African Resources (PAF) has four major producing precious metals assets in South Africa: Barberton (target output 95koz Au pa), the Barberton Tailings Retreatment Project, or BTRP (20koz), Elikhulu (55koz) and Evander underground, incorporating Egoli (currently 30koz, rising to >100koz).

Prior to its FY24 results, our core valuation of PAF was 48.41 US cents per share, based on projects either already in production or sanctioned. However, this rose by 46–57% once other assets (eg Egoli) were also taken into account. In the meantime, PAF remains cheaper than its peers on at least 69% of commonly used valuation measures and has the 24th highest dividend yield in the precious metals mining sector, globally.

Financials

Pan African’s (PAF’s) FY24 results were within 1% of our prior forecasts for headline EPS (4.15c cf 4.17c). However, if the contract liability related to its ZAR400m Mintails financing facility were stripped out, we calculate that it would have recorded HEPS of 5.27c, which would have been close to the top of the range of analysts’ expectations and a record for a 12-month period. This sets the stage for more material EPS and cash flow increases in the future as the Mintails contract liability concludes in February at the same time that opex stabilises and capex falls away.
