At a share price of $6.20, B2Gold's recent negative 90 day share price return of 15.18% contrasts with its 1 year total shareholder return of 74.59%, suggesting shorter term momentum has faded even as long term holders still show solid gains.

With B2Gold trading at CA$6.20 alongside annual revenue of $2.5b and net income of $219.4m, the key question is whether this miner is quietly undervalued or if the market is already pricing in expectations for its future performance.
The most followed narrative sees B2Gold’s fair value at CA$8.60 versus the current CA$6.20 share price, framing the recent pullback as a potential valuation gap driven by future cash flow expectations.
The successful commissioning of new projects such as Goose Mine and ongoing development studies (e.g., Gramalote) align with rising institutional and portfolio demand for gold as a non-correlated hedge, positioning B2Gold for long-term production growth and margin expansion as industry-wide reserve depletion supports higher gold prices.
Want to see what sits behind that confidence in higher margins and production? The narrative leans on rapid earnings growth, richer profitability, and a future earnings multiple that still prices in caution. Curious how those moving parts stack up into that CA$8.60 fair value mark?
Result: Fair Value of $8.60 (UNDERVALUED)
