GuruFocus Profitability Rank ranks how profitable a company is and how likely the company’s business will stay that way. It is based on these factors:

1. Operating Margin
2. Trend of the Operating Margin (5-year average). The company with an uptrend profit margin has a higher rank.
••3. Consistency of the profitability
4. Piotroski F-Score
5. Predictability Rank•

The maximum rank is 10. A rank of 7 or higher means a higher profitability and may stay that way. A rank of 3 or lower indicates that the company has had trouble to make a profit.

Profitability Rank is not directly related to the Financial Strength Rank. But if a company is consistently profitable, its financial strength will be stronger.

Business Description

Allied Nevada Gold Corp. was incorporated under the laws of Delaware on September 14, 2006. Until May 10, 2007 it was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Vista Gold Corp. (Vista), a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Yukon Territory, Canada. The Company is gold producer focused on mining, development, and exploration properties in the state of Nevada. The Company's operating mine, the Hycroft Mine, is a past producing open-pit gold and silver heap leach operation located 50 miles west of Winnemucca, Nevada. The Hycroft Mine, which resides on an aggregate land position of approximately 96 square miles, is currently an open pit, run-of-mine and crushed ore heap leach gold mine that also produces silver as a byproduct of the gold recovery process. The Hycroft Mine hosts a Proven and Probable mineral reserve of 12.7 million ounces of gold and 481.9 million ounces of silver. Mining is currently carried out by open pit methods with a typical drill, blast, load, and haul cycle from two pits: the Brimstone and Cut-5 pits. Currently, the majority of the ore-grade material placed on the leach pad is run-of-mine with a small percentage being selectively crushed based on ore type and grade. The Company is currently implementing a two-stage expansion project that is intended to produce a six-fold growth in gold production at the mine by 2016. The Company's operating segments are the Hycroft Mine, Exploration, and Corporate and Other. The Hycroft Mine operating segment contains the exploration and operational activities at its wholly-owned Hycroft Mine located in Nevada. The Exploration operating segment contains the exploration and development activities on the Company's Advanced Exploration Properties and Other Exploration Properties. The Corporate and Other operating segment primarily contains the corporate overhead functions of the Company. Allied Nevada competes with other mining companies in connection with the acquisition of gold properties. There is competition for the limited number of gold acquisition opportunities, some of which are with companies having substantially greater financial resources than Allied Nevada. As a result, Allied Nevada may have difficulty acquiring attractive gold projects at reasonable prices. The Company's gold projects are subject to various federal and state laws and regulations governing protection of the environment.
