The Globe and Mail reports in its Friday, Sept. 19, edition that BMO Capital analyst Etienne Ricard continues to rate Sprott "outperform." The Globe's David Leeder writes in the Eye On Equities column that Mr. Ricard's share target soared $11 to $109. Analysts on average target the shares at $96. Mr. Ricard says in a note: "Sprott is at an inflection point in its corporate history as a focused alternative asset manager with a scalable platform that can support rising net flows and margins. With limited capital requirements and 20-per-cent-plus earnings CAGR prospects leading to 2027, we expect a meaningful increase in capital returns. Sprott remains one of our preferred investment ideas." The Globe reported on Feb. 28 that Canaccord Genuity analyst Matthew Lee had reaffirmed his "buy" call for Sprott. It was then worth $60.87. The Globe reported on March 7 that Mr. Ricard had commenced coverage on Sprott with an "outperform" recommendation. It was then worth $64.07. The Globe reported on July 23 that TD analyst Graham Ryding had lowered his recommendation for Sprott to "hold" from "buy" citing valuation concerns after the stock's 71-per-cent rally this year. Sprott shares could then be had for $98.37.
