CTGO
Contango Silver and Gold joins Andy Millette for a post-merger deep dive into why management believes the new company is still being mispriced by the market. Rick Van Nieuwenhuyse and Shawn Khunkhun break down the 100 million dollar cash position, the expected free cash flow profile, and why they believe CTGO now has one of the more compelling combinations of funding, project depth, and upside leverage in the sector. The conversation walks through how the company expects to generate cash this year, what could happen if gold prices stay strong, and why management thinks the market is still underappreciating the value of the full pipeline. Rick explains the debt and hedge cleanup plan, the 2026 catalyst path, and why Lucky Shot, Johnson Track, and Kitsault Valley could all matter in the next stage of growth. Shawn lays out the longer-term production vision and explains how the company sees a path toward becoming a serious North American mid-tier silver and gold producer. The interview also gets into British Columbia, the Golden Triangle, infrastructure, jurisdictional execution, and why the DSO model may matter even more if inflationary pressure stays elevated. For investors following CTGO, this is a direct look at the merger logic, the near-term milestones, the long-term scale story, and why management believes this could be a major re-rating setup as execution continues. #Millettian
