We will find out soon enough what the score is when they release results. I don't have the belief to buy in, but surely they have commercial production at Kouroussa by now. I might have missed it but we also need to hear about underground at Yanfolila. I think the balance sheet here will be in absolute tatters. When we see some real steady state numbers from the two mines, combined with total debt and payables, we can start to calculate a valuation. My advice would be watch out for outstanding payables on the balance sheet in excess to net debt, because that was in the 10s of millions after Yanfolia build and caught me by surprise. It also wasn't mentioned until a year or so after the build. There is also the issue with Corica, which whilst seemingly resolved, is an unknown cost. As presumably they haven't gone back to work for nothing.
