On Monday, BMO Capital Markets adjusted its price target for Arizona Metals Corp (AMC:CN) (OTC: AZMCF), reducing it to Cdn$6.00 from the previous Cdn$6.50, while continuing to recommend the stock as an Outperform. This revision follows a hiatus in coverage due to the company's recent bought deal financing.
The analyst at BMO Capital provided insight into the decision, noting that the financing development was anticipated, albeit the timing was sooner than expected and at a share price that was lower than previous estimates. The adjustment in the price target reflects both the outcome of the financing and recent modifications to the BMO Global Metals & Mining team's forecast for metal prices.
Arizona Metals' bought deal financing was a key factor in the reassessment of the stock's value. The financing's earlier-than-anticipated announcement and the lower share price at which it was conducted influenced the revised price target.
In addition to the financing aspect, BMO Capital's Global Metals & Mining team has updated its outlook on metal prices, which has been factored into the new price target. These updates are part of the ongoing analysis and adjustments made by financial institutions to their forecasts based on market developments and company-specific events.
Despite the reduction in the price target, BMO Capital maintains its Outperform rating on Arizona Metals, indicating that the firm continues to see positive potential in the stock's performance relative to the market.
