Agreed bloodninja, there will be volatility and spikes but these should be more sustainable given the newsflow will have substance and a realisation that MAC is increasing its nav and focusing on the green energy sector. The last two spikes have been deflated by Chris Akers pulling out and the director sale. Two 'one-offs' so future significant uplifts should be more sustainable and, really will just be correcting the discount to nav and reflecting the new emphasis on the green energy sector..
Currently, the recent £1.5m + warrants / 8.7% lithium investment stake in Weardale Lithium ltd (WLL) acquired without cost or dilution nearly covers the market cap. Future Biogas plans to list with a £60m valuation with an up to £35m fund raise. Marechale are listed as having an advisory capacity with Cairn Financial taking the lead for the IPO. I assume MAC have prepared the way and are helping with the funding from their client list. I'm not sure what % stake plus warrants MAC will have in Future Biogas but, once listed, the value will be clear and it should be material.
Additionally there is the Fast2Fibre investment with 10% holder, Baz, highlighting they could go for an IPO on the back of a potentially lucrative German contract. That would be another of the four alluded to by MAC in the results for an IPO or trade exit.
On top of that there is the 4% stake plus warrants in the Burgh Hotel which could be worth £800,000 plus the value of the warrants based on a £20m hotel valuation that has had multi-million pound renovations. Best bet would be a trade exit for that one given the increasing emphasis on the green energy sector.
I suspect the strong pipeline MAC have referenced will focus on the green / renewables / net carbon sector. There seems to be a move away from pubs and hospitality and a trade exit for the Burgh Hotel will highlight that as a switch in focus. There should be an increasing number of clients in the renewable sector as well who will look towards MAC for their services and to tap into their high net worth list of investors.
So lots of news for patient holders to await and clearly a substantially higher nav than the market cap - a nav that is set to rise once the IPO's and exits materialise. MAC seem to like to operate under the radar and no doubt being discreet and cautious appeals to their network of high net worth investors.
I'd like to see them be a bit more expansive though. For example, there has been little detail of the potential resources WLL has acquired. For a £19m valuation they will certainly have good prospects. I believe WLL is about a year or two behind Cornish Lithium in its development and the latter is valued at £80m.
Not to forget the ones that jumped in at 6p not to long ago
Good post NickE, appreciated. Certainly makes for a more interesting board for everyone invested or considering investing here. The SP movements are painful at times here, if you're long and strong there's clearly a lot of future potential, however one cannot ignore the fact that this SP is volatile and spikes up and down. No doubt some purchasers from the recent spike to 3.5p+ are feeling some pain if they're still here, a position to reallocate as a longer term one now and consider how many of these you want to hold for potential future exits that could drive MAC value...
Still four IPO / exits to go ninja. WLL wouldn't have come under IPO or trade exit. Maybe in three years time though.
The funding document for Weardale Lithium Ltd suggests it is a year or so behind Cornish Lithium (probably 18 months to be realistic) who are valued at £80m. That suggest that WLL will be worth 7p plus a share excluding the warrants MAC hold over them.
MAC have other Weardale Lithium's on their books too. Future biogas - the biggest biogas producer in the UK and currently looking to raise around £35m and no doubt MAC are involved in that as advisors. How much will that be worth ... another initial £1.5m ?
Then there is fast2fibre which has patented technology for fire optics infrastructure that needs replacing on a large scale. Apparently they are in the frame for a large contract in Germany.
Then there is the 4% stake in the Burgh Hotel which has had multi million renovations. Perhaps a trade exit there unless they plan to list and, with low priced warrants exercised, perhaps another £800,000 to £1m to add to the balance sheet.
Over time I expect to see MAC trading in the 10p to 20p range. That's just based on the above and excludes the strong pipeline of investments they alluded to in the recent set of results. Early stage with the impending listing of Future Biogas then maybe 5p to 6p.
The market has yet to cotton on to the fact that MAC has been picking up stakes in the renewable / green energy sector for zero cost, zero dilution in exchange for its advisory services and will continue to repeat this business model with its pipeline..
This is not a blue cap....a tiny company with a mkt cap about as low as there is that places once every three years.
Strong showing today as buyers return and pick up at bargain price... back over 3 next week will be good to see
Totally agree mate. Just naive and impatient I guess.
Lesson is to sell on spikes not buy on them! If you're buying on spikes and selling at a loss shortly after you will find the share game a rather unpleasant one. There is one line in a recent RNS that makes this an interesting share to be in when the SP is dwindling:
"Four long standing clients looking for a trade exit or IPO in the next three to 18 months."
You've seen what happens when one of these clients proposes an exit that creates value, three more to go, make of that what you will.
Nice rise. However, I sold after getting spiked a couple weeks ago.
Won't be buying again.
Nice but that

Agreed..but when it moves...it moves!
Added today as I think demand will propel these above 3p this week. Already in profit. As always Mac is very volatile!
Rerate coming soon..load up @ this silly price imho
The share pricd should be around 4p here, joke really how this is valued as the £1.8 million shares alone is more than the market cap before you add other things in
