Summary
CGAU has $ 529 M in cash, $ 929 M in total liquidity, and zero debt. This enables it to support both growth spending and shareholder returns.
It trades at around a 45% discount to sector median on FWD Non-GAAP P/E (8.21x vs 14.89x) and around a 51% discount on EV/EBITDA (3.93x vs 8.02x).
In 2025, CGAU returned $ 135 M to investors. This was through; $94M in buybacks and $41M in dividends. These buybacks are expected to continue.
It also has a multi-asset growth pipeline with near-term catalysts. This includes Mount Milligan’s mine life extension to 2035, Goldfield targeting first production in 2028, the Kemess project with a $1.1Bn NPV from the PEA, and the Thompson Creek molybdenum restart expected in mid-2027.
