Stonegate Capital Partners Updates Coverage on Seabridge Gold Inc. (SA) 2Q26
Stonegate Capital Partners updated coverage on Seabridge Gold Inc. (NYSE: SA), highlighting the company's 2Q26 progress. The KSM project's development and financing setup were strengthened, with a $100M strategic facility providing funding certainty. The facility is unsecured and no amounts were drawn as of August 13. The company is advancing an earn-in JV with a preferred partner, which could validate KSM and reduce financing risks. Seabridge's valuation gap remains significant, trading at 10%
