Medusa is well undervalued based on known H1 and Q3 results and forecast Q4 results giving FY profit around US$52 million, with a forward EPS of US 26-27c (A 33.4c) for a P/E ratio of around 2.6.
So the sp could rise by 3x or 4x from here and still have a lowish EPS with further progress expected in the next full year starting in July when the production ramp up should continue to the likely range of 130 - 140k oz with an expected huge further increase in profitability even if gold remains around the $1200 mark as now.
***** The Co-O budget for 2015/16 financial year is currently in preparation and the production guidance for next year will be announced during the current quarter. (ie this month) *****
Forecast H2 production and FY outcome based on:
Q3 production of 23.9k oz (actual) and
Q4 production of 30.1k oz due to increased supply of ore to Co-O mill from L8 shaft capacity increase from 13/1/2015.
FY production: 102,000 oz (guidance 95 - 100k oz).

So if they are getting a margin of $200USD (optimistic case) on 125koz, then is that $25m USD EBIT, or about $32m AUD EBIT? SP doesn't seem significantly out of whack at current levels at $180m MC to me. Keen to hear thoughts.
