Michael great post thank you! What type of PE does the market give to a stock the size of RIC? Of course if production goes to 100K per year we get even better.

Michel,

Nice work.

I think your cash costs are too high. RIC is aiming at $C500 per ounce or almost US$400 when all runs smoothly later this year.

I also think that expenses will be closer to C$16 million, including exploration.

Rating perfectly good gold shares by P/E - what has the world come to? -g- ... another great post from you, Michel, much appreciated ... and on a healthy play too, strong relative performance from Richmont, people seem to like it better than some others

As per your note from a later post:

<Personnaly and it's purely speculative 10-12 cents, that means 40-50 cts for the year, just put the p/e you want.>

Well let's go for 50 cents. I see in the table RIC could earn closer to 68 cents at 900 POG which is closer to the last 3 month average:
quotes.ino.com

However costs for the last quarter of 2008 were higher than the 500 in the table:

Operating costs, including royalties, for the fourth quarter of 2008 were $13.0 million compared with $6.5 million in the same period the prior year. However, the average cash cost of production was lower at US$550 (CAN$586) per ounce of gold sold in the fourth quarter of 2008 compared with US$556 (CAN$598) in last year's fourth quarter.

We need more reserves and a solid gold rally so mining companies begin to reflect a higher PE.

What is the current PE ratio for RIC based on last quarter?

Thanks,
Tom
