RBC Capital Markets maintained its outperform, speculative risk, rating on the shares of NovaGold Resources (NG.TO, NG) while cutting its price target to US$14.00 from US$18.00 as the company advances its Donlin gold project in Alaska.
"High gold prices and a June 2025 restructuring have fundamentally changed the outlook for NG's Tier 1 Donlin project in Alaska, now having transitioned from limited activity to advancement and execution. Following a 1Q $310m equity financing, NG is completing a bankable feasibility study by 2027, early infrastructure investment, and exploration, ahead of a potential construction decision. In our view, continued technical de-risking, BFS delivery, and sustained high gold prices have the potential to support a revaluation of NG. We adjust our PT to $14 (from $18), reflecting a 1.3x NAV multiple on our updated Donlin estimates," analyst Josh Wolfson wrote.
