SMF... Scotia Daily Market Summary...

SEMAFO Inc. (SMF - $8.66) Rating: 2-Sector Perform Target: $10.50

Solid Q2/11; UG Development Green-lighted

SEMAFO reported Q2/11 EPS of US$0.11 versus our estimate and consensus of US$0.12 and of US$0.10,

respectively. Gold production of 63,800 oz in Q2/11 had been pre-released. Total cash costs in the quarter were

$660/oz, in line with our estimates. SEMAFO is on track to meet 2011 production guidance of 238-263 koz. We

expect 2011 production of 251.9 koz at $667/oz. Value drivers for the company include ongoing exploration

results leading to resource expansion, and the anticipated production decision on a secondary plant at Mana

(near Fofina/Fobiri resource). Also, the timely development of the underground mine at Mana and controlling the

impacts of cost escalations should be key going forward. Our NAV3% has decreased slightly to C$5.81 from

C$5.91 previously. Our one-year target remains at C$10.50 per share. We rate SMF 2-Sector Perform primarily

based on relative valuation. –– Leily Omoumi
