National Bank Financial on Wednesday maintained its sector-perform rating on the shares of Barrick Gold (ABX.TO, GOLD) while lowering its price target to $24.00 from C$26.00 after the company said it is suspending operations at its Loulo-Gounkoto in Mali.
We updated our model for the announcement of the temporary closure of Loulo-Gounkoto. We now assume the mine will be closed in 1Q25 and restart operations at a softer pace in 2Q25. However, this is a low-conviction assumption based on a fluid situation between the company and the government. As a result of our assumption, ~117koz (3%) of 2025 production and US$303mln (4%) of EBITDA has been knocked off our 2025 estimates," analyst Mike Parkin wrote.
