Winston Score History

The full picture

Jaguar Mining is a Canadian gold mining company that operates entirely in Brazil. It digs gold out of underground mines and sells that gold — its only product — to refiners and bullion dealers. The company focuses on a mining region in the state of Minas Gerais, one of Brazil's oldest and most gold-rich areas.

Jaguar makes money by selling physical gold at market prices, so its revenue rises and falls with the global gold price. It is a small producer by industry standards, with a market cap around $500 million, but its operating margin above 30% shows it keeps costs relatively controlled compared to peers. The main risk is that the company operates in a single country with a single commodity, meaning any drop in gold prices, rising mining costs, or regulatory changes in Brazil could have an outsized impact on its financial results.
