Sheff - who is upset now? haha. I simply took prior 4 Qs and averaged the net prof margin to get 40% (consistent with their long-term performance) so hopefully not too contentious.
We already know what the prod. oz. is likely to be - 72k. What we do not know is the basket of course. So I assumed a low estimate to be conservative: $1,580.
Last 4 Qs:
Basket price X Prod oz. measured against net revenue, the latter is on average 74%.
Q1: Basket $2,897 [A] | Prod. oz : 15,771 [B] | Gross rev. [A] x [B] = $45,688,587. 6E rev (actual): $32,300,000 i.e. 71%
Q2: Basket $2,892 [A] | Prod. oz : 16,605 [B] | Gross rev. [A] x [B] = $48,021,660. 6E rev (actual): $35,000,000 i.e. 73%
Q3: Basket $3,327 [A] | Prod. oz : 15,840 [B] | Gross rev. [A] x [B] = $52,699,680. 6E rev (actual): $41,300,000 i.e. 78%
Q4: Basket $2,589 [A] | Prod. oz : 18,837 [B] | Gross rev. [A] x [B] = $48,768,993. 6E rev (actual): $37,646,000 i.e. 77%
These 71%, 73%, 78%, and 77% numbers are facts and average out at 74% (this is again consistent longer term not just last 4Qs)
So using an estimated basket of $1,580 and Prod. oz of 72,000 gives $113,760,000.
74% of this is 6E rev estimate of $84,546,000.
40% of that is $33.8m or £27m (depending on exchange rate.)
It was this estimated $27m which I used to get to a cash-adjusted forward P/E of 4.7
Hopefully, that is clearer.
