Q: What is your opinion of Empress Royalty Corp and do you prefer any other junior precious metal royalty companies instead of Empress? Thanks
5i Research Answer:
EMPR is a nice little small cap, with good stock performance (100% in a year), a strong balance sheet, growing revenue and strong earnings growth (more than a double expected this year). It has a decent collection of royalties and good management (insiders own 2%, Terra Cap owns 11%, Sprott owns 5%). It is still largely unknown with only one analyst. For the junior sector it is one of the better ones in our view.
