BMO raises Dakota Gold stock price target to $7.50

On Monday, BMO Capital Markets updated their financial outlook on Dakota Gold Corp. (NYSE:DC), increasing the price target to $7.50 from the previous $6.00. The firm sustained its Outperform rating on the shares, signaling confidence in the company’s performance. The new target represents significant upside potential from the current share price of $3.14, with analyst targets ranging from $6.00 to $8.25. InvestingPro data reveals the stock has already gained an impressive 33.91% in the past week, with multiple technical indicators suggesting momentum.

The adjustment follows Dakota Gold’s announcement of a significant resource increase at its Richmond Hill property. According to BMO Capital’s analyst Andrew Mikitchook, the updated resource estimate includes 6.3 million ounces of oxide and transition resources across all categories. This enhancement positions Richmond Hill as a notable deposit both in the United States and on a global scale. With a current market capitalization of $290.85 million, InvestingPro analysis indicates the company maintains a healthy balance sheet with liquid assets exceeding short-term obligations.

Mikitchook highlighted that the size of the Richmond Hill oxides is now directly comparable to the Wharf mine, which has yielded over 4 million ounces of gold and currently holds reserves of 0.76 million ounces of gold. The revised resource estimate has led BMO Capital to envision a potential expansion of Dakota Gold’s development plan. The analyst anticipates the company could more than double its projected production from approximately 85,000 ounces of gold per year to nearly 200,000 ounces annually.

The increased production forecast is a primary factor behind the raised price target for Dakota Gold stock. The substantial growth in resource estimates at Richmond Hill underpins the optimistic financial projections for the company’s future operations and profitability.

Dakota Gold Corp. has not yet issued a public response to the new price target or BMO Capital’s assessment of the Richmond Hill resource update. The company’s shares will likely continue to be influenced by market reception of such analyst evaluations and subsequent operational developments.
