Winston Score History

The full picture

Shanta Gold is a gold mining company based in Africa. It digs gold out of the ground and sells it — mostly to refiners and bullion banks that turn it into bars, jewelry, or industrial products. The company operates the New Luika Gold Mine in Tanzania, which has been its main producing asset, and has been expanding into Kenya with its North Mara-adjacent Singida project.

The company earns money by selling physical gold at market prices, so its revenue rises and falls with the gold price. It is a small-cap miner with a market value around $200 million, listed on the London Stock Exchange's AIM market. Its competitive position depends heavily on keeping production costs low enough to stay profitable when gold prices dip — a challenge reflected in its thin operating margins and negative return on invested capital. The key risk is cost control and project execution as it tries to grow output beyond its single main mine.

Revenue accelerating

The Winston Score above measures business quality today. Growth stocks often score lower because they invest in the future rather than maximising current profits. These metrics show what matters most for evaluating that future.
