How the calculation works

Simplified enterprise value = equity market value + debt and relevant claims − cash. Divide by attributable resource units.

Worked example

Fictional single-project gold company. Money inputs are CAD millions; the reported attributable resource is 2 million ounces in one resource category.

Simplified enterprise value
35 million
Enterprise value per resource unit
17.5 currency units/oz or lb

Simplified enterprise value is CAD 35 million, or CAD 17.50 per reported resource ounce. This ratio is a comparison aid, not the value of recoverable metal or a project valuation.

Where to find your figures

Use an equity market value and balance-sheet figures on a consistent date basis, plus a dated resource report. Record the metal, category and attributable ownership. Keep other material assets and claims in view.
