On June 9, Equinox Gold fell 5.3% in regular trading, trading at $10.27/share, with trading volume of $92.55 million.
On the news front, RBC Capital Markets cut its price target on Equinox Gold to $14 from $17, maintaining an outperform rating. This marks the second significant downward revision in a short period, following an earlier cut from $23 to $17 — a cumulative reduction of nearly 40% from the original target. RBC noted that Equinox Gold's planned acquisition of Orla Mining carries mixed valuation implications, including an estimated 5% dilution to net asset value per unit. However, the complementary free cash flow profile was cited as the deal's most positive valuation factor, with Orla providing near-term free cash flow while Equinox Gold's pipeline drives longer-term upside. The deal is projected to be accretive to production per share and cash flow per share over the 2027-2030 period.
The broader gold sector also traded lower, with Coeur Mining down 5.92%, Kinross down 4.72%, Agnico Eagle Mines down 3.41%, Barrick Mining down 3.32%, and Newmont Mining down 3.05%.
