The Company focuses on the exploration, mining, production, and distribution of iron ore concentrates. Fortress Minerals\u2019 key markets lie mainly in Malaysia, alongside China, and Vietnam. The company plans to diversify into other minerals that are used largely for clean energy. This diversification strategy adds a layer of protection to the volatility of commodity prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:15px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-white-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-heading\" style=\"background-color:#012169\"><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong>Potential to upscale<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company also announced 2 new projects in the state of Sabah, East Malaysia.

This growth is exponential as the mine has yet to reach its full potential and lifespan, with only 15% of Bukit Besi mine being explored, and only the top layer of soil in Mengapur has been explored. This presents Fortress Mineral with a strong supply of iron ore, as well as copper ore in the long term.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-white-color has-text-color has-background wp-block-heading\" style=\"background-color:#012169\"><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong>Valuation & Action<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We initiate with an Outperform recommendation and a TP of S$0.46, based on a blended valuation, using Discounted Cash Flow (DCF), with a terminal growth rate of 2% and a WACC of 10%, as well as a comparable multiples Valuation using an industry EV\/Resource multiple of 3.6x. Fortress Minerals\u2019 strong balance sheet, low gearing ratio, and ability to generate cash flow to fund its future expansion plans put it at a competitive advantage against its competitors.
