Torex Gold acquires Prime Mining stock in all-share deal

Investing.com - TD Securities downgraded Prime Mining Corp (TSX:PRYM) (OTC:PRMNF) from Buy to Sell and lowered its price target to C$3.75 from C$5.00.

The rating change follows an apparent acquisition deal between Prime Mining and Torex Gold, with TD Securities analyst Steven Green noting the new price target is based on "our TXG target and exchange ratio."

While specific terms of the all-share transaction were not detailed, the analyst described the deal valuation as "relatively low at ~0.4x NAV" but considered it "fair given the local security issues and political challenges in Mexico."

TD Securities views Torex Gold as "the right buyer" for Prime Mining, citing Torex’s "success in operating/building in Mexico" as a key factor in the acquisition.

The downgrade to Sell rating suggests TD Securities believes Prime Mining shareholders should consider accepting the offer rather than holding the stock independently.
