The Globe and Mail reports in its Wednesday, Nov. 26, edition that National Bank Financial analyst Mohamed Sidibe has upgraded Fortuna Mining to "outperform" from "sector perform." The Globe's David Leeder writes that Mr. Sidibe gave his share target a 75-cent boost to $15. Analysts on average target the shares at $13.37. Mr. Sidibe returned from a recent visit to Fortuna's Seguela mine in Ivory Coast with an increasingly positive view, highlighting the greater visibility on growth options from exciting exploration opportunities at the company's flagship Seguela asset. Mr. Sidibe says in a note: "We now expect that the new baseline production of 160-180 koz [thousand ounces] in 2026 could be maintained at a minimum over the remainder of the mine life with the potential to increase this beyond 200 koz from 2028 at low capital intensity through the Sunbird underground project and the mill expansion to 2.0-2.5 mln tpa [million tons per annum] from 1.75 mln tpa. When paired with additional growth from the Diamba Sud project which we model and where a construction decision is expected in mid-2026, we view Fortuna as delivering attractive growth, strong FCF and operational delivery with continuous exploration upside."
