Build practical financial modeling skills by analyzing the financial performance of a leading global mining company. In Analyze & Evaluate Financial Models in Mining, you will learn how to construct, interpret, and evaluate financial models using Barrick Gold Corporation as a real-world case study. The course begins with the fundamentals of the mining sector, including global gold demand, capital expenditure planning, revenue forecasting, gross realizations, operating costs, and profitability analysis. You will then explore balance sheet interpretation, capital structure, working capital, asset evaluation, and the financial drivers that influence business performance, including depreciation, debt, and financing effects. Finally, you will examine investor-focused valuation techniques by evaluating earnings per share (EPS), debt-to-equity ratios, dividend yields, and compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) to assess company value and forecast stock performance.

Designed for learners interested in financial modeling, equity research, corporate finance, investment analysis, and mining finance, this course emphasizes practical application rather than theory alone. By working through a comprehensive mining-sector financial model, you will develop the ability to analyze financial statements, evaluate valuation metrics, interpret business performance, and make more informed financial and investment decisions with greater confidence.
