Monarch Mining Corporation — Beaufor resources up 136%, valuation up 20%

Monarch Mining Corporation’s potentially high-return gold projects in the well-established Abitibi gold belt have reported a 136% increase in measured and indicated (M&I) resources at its Beaufor asset to 219,200oz of gold, with total measured, indicated and inferred (MI&I) up 178% to 341,700oz. We have added a six-year life extension and now forecast an 11-year life for Beaufor, which is set to start production by June 2022. Croinor is planned for start-up in FY24/25. Ongoing exploration could lead to more life extensions. McKenzie Break and Swanson could add further value in the future. Meanwhile an additional C$11.3m has been raised from a royalty transaction and C$13.5m from debt financing increasing gross cash to over C$43m. We have increased our valuation by 20% to C$1.19/share.

Significant Beaufor mine life extension likely

The planned re-start of Beaufor and Beacon mill entered a new phase with the expansion to 219,200oz M&I ounces (up 136.5% from its previous 92,700oz) presenting a six-year life extension to the previous 4.5 years. This, together with an increase in cash resources to C$43m on the back of four successful equity, royalty and debt transactions should easily enable Monarch to recommission its two main mining assets. Monarch moved into recruiting mode in mid-June and is set to restart production by mid-2022. It will focus on operating Beaufor from a vertical shaft and a production ramp. The ongoing 42,500-metre drilling programme has more than doubled the potential mine life in less than six months. This is confirmation of the incredible ability of the Abitibi gold belt to continue to produce gold resources.

Successive transactions bolster balance sheet

Since January 2021, Monarch has raised C$42m comprising of C$10.1m flow-through shares issued, C$6.7m raised in a bought deal private placement of units, a C$11.3m royalty transaction with Gold Royalty Corp and a C$13.5m debt senior secured term loan from Investissement Québec. Its bolstered balance sheet increases confidence in operational outlook and mine extension upside.

Valuation: C$1.19/share including next tier assets

Our valuation of C$1.19/share comprises C$0.89/share for Beaufor and Croinor, starting operations in FY22 and C$0.30/share for next tier assets. This increase in value from our previous C$0.99/share validates the mine life extension upside we presented in our initiation note. Further upside remains through additional life extensions and unlocking value in the tier two assets of McKenzie Break and Swanson through corporate action or bringing them into production.

Drilling success supports mine life extensions

Monarch Mining has the potential to become a 25–65Koz pa gold producer in one of the most prospective areas for gold exploration in the world (Exhibit 1). With its track record of adding 11oz of gold for every metre of exploration drilled in the Abitibi gold belt, there is every reason to believe that the current 63,200m drilling programme could further add significant resources to its MI&I resources.

Main risk/reward: Highly geared to mine life

We see the principal risks and sensitivity to Monarch Mining as extending the life of the mines and accelerating or delaying bringing the Croinor mine into production in FY24, which is our base case. This is in addition to the normal risks of execution and the gold price. The risks related to the cash position and the ability to finance in order to bring Beaufor and Croinor into production have been largely removed through successful funding transactions year-to-date. The mine extension upside we flagged in our initiation note sensitivities has now in part been formalised in our valuation, although further upside remains through additional life extension potential for Beaufor and Croinor. This upside is dependent on additions to MI&I, but with continued investment in exploration and recent successes, we are optimistic.

Conclusion: Drill as much as possible

The exploration programme has already added significant new resources to the company’s MI&I resources statement and is likely to do so again in this highly prospective gold belt. Management is aware that this is the way to add the most value to this early-stage company and therefore intends to maintain a high level of exploration and development spend going forward.

Financials

Our forecasts for FY21 remain unchanged with a 5.9c/share loss driven by running costs and Beaufor only coming online in FY22. We have increased our FY22 forecast loss from 4.6c/share to 5.2c/share with the pre-tax loss increasing from C$3.2m to C$3.8m primarily for two reasons.

The first relates to the 23 July 2021 announced transaction with Gold Royalty Corp whereby Monarch has sold a C$2.50/t royalty interest on all material processed through the Beacon mill originating from the Beaufor mine operations and a 2.5% net smelter return royalty on each of the Croinor, McKenzie Break and Swanson properties for a C$11.25m consideration. With Beaufor expected to come into production in FY22, the royalty payment increases cost of sales in our forecast.

The second relates to the C$13.5m senior secured loan agreement with Investissement Québec, which was announced on 3 August 2021. Although this helps to bolster Monarch’s current gross cash position to over C$43m (as of August 2021), this three-year term loan attracts finance cost at 6% until the restart of Beaufor, 5% during the first year of production and 4% thereafter. We have increased our finance costs assumptions to account for the loan.

The impact of these two transactions continues into our post-FY22 forecasts as well with FY23 earnings cut from 17.9c/share to 16.1c/share and FY24 cut from 19.4c/share to 16.9c/share. However, this near-term negative impact on our forecasts is more than offset by mine life extensions, which have resulted in dividends under our base case continuing until FY28 where they ceased in FY26 previously. We have based our mine life projection on the latest available M&I and our assumed ore production schedule, which is driven by the company’s NI 43-101 technical reports, allowing for production levels to remain flat in the additional forecast years.

Our forecasts now also allow for the impact of the bought deal private placement of unts that was upsized from C$6m to C$6.7m since our previous note.

Valuation

We have increased our core valuation relating to Beaufor and Croinor by 29% to C$0.89/share on the back of the forecast life extension for Beaufor. This increase is driven by an extended dividend payment profile as represented below.

Exhibit 2: Valuation and dividend forecasts – base case to FY28

Source: Edison Investment Research

Our base case core valuation does not include further life extensions or dividend payments after FY28, although we flag the potential for this to occur, which could lead to further upside. Our valuation for the tier two assets is based on a peer resource valuation of 12 gold producers in Canada with price appreciation since our initiation report offsetting dilution due to share issuance, leaving our valuation at C$0.30/share. Although Monarch’s recent exploration successes present upside potential for this valuation through either corporate action or bringing them into production, we have taken a conservative approach. Our revised total valuation is C$1.19/share, which is a 20% increase on our previous value of C$0.99/share. This uplift illustrates the sensitivity of Monarch’s valuation to mine life extensions, which we flagged in our initiation note.
