M&M NAV Model and multiples
Does anyone have an M&M NAV model template? I am looking to build one out from what I understand, you essentially do a sum-of-the-mines, to get down to UFCF. The discount factor you use for precious metals is around 5%-10%, depending on the specific type of mines, stage, and geography to get PV of FCF. In year 0, Capex will be the value of the mine, and from there, we will calculate the NAV by doing -Capex + Sum of PV of UFCF. Is there anything after this point?
How would you value a mining company with no revenue? What are some common multiples used in the industry?
Thank you
This is a big info dump but let me know if you have any questions. I previously worked at a financial advisory firm where a decent amount of my work focused on the mining industry
NAV Model
A NAV model is just taking the NPV of each of the mining assets a company has and then making other adjustments to arrive at the equity value of the mining company. These other adjustments typically are things like cash, debt and corporate G&A (i.e. the costs of running the head office of the mining company). The valuation technique for each asset will differ depending on the stage of development of each asset which I discuss below about the different approaches. For earlier stage companies, these other adjustments will usually be pretty minimal and the biggest numbers in the NAV analysis will be the NPV of the mining assets.
A good example of a NAV analysis is TD’s fairness opinion for the Rio Tinto / Turquoise Hill deal which you can see at the bottom of page 44 through page 47 in the link below (also outlines other mining valuation techniques that they did too)

Valuation Approaches
Thank you for the help btw. How similar is a Mining NAV model to an O&G NAV Model? Would anyone covering Energy be able help out? Thanks
