RE: Statement from the CEO23 Jun 2023 16:27
I'd like to think Oracle Energy has more legs to it, and more value to create GH, before giving up 80%, that said, it's a viable option. Interestingly, important to remember that the Solar Project is in the hands of Oracle Power, "Currently being developed" shall we say, but it may be taken on in the future by OE. I do think everyday, how this will pan out, and ultimately, how will Naheed get Oracle shareholders Maximum exposure to a seat at the table, without astronomical dilution.

In terms of non dilutive funding LW, how could this be incorporated? We recieve the funding we need in exchange for what exactly? Exposure to the GH project? Whatever deal is sorted out, a nice £5-£10m payment would go a long way to securing the near term future of Oracle Power and limiting any future fundraisers. A drop in the ocean when your talking about a multi Billion $ Build
At what point, if we secure financing and we retain a % of this project, does the market take notice? The more the company derisk their involvement in this project, and the MCAP remains at bottom Dollar prices, surely this begins to become even more appealing, than what it currently is. Naheed needs to prove that she can deliver, forget about the past (easy to say), and i'l judge her on the project shes currently running with. Deliver on this and the confidence in investors will build exponentially, when we begin to develop further projects in the future. But yeah i do agree, I've made it no secret that i've been impressed with the progress to date on this. But when you hit milestones, progress, progress, there's only so long you can go, without detailing these important fundamentals. A recent RNS stated financing was a priority for the company, and next on the TO DO list
From the off, one attribute with Naheed I've learnt to accept, she's not the type of CEO to appease the 10% losses, the 30% drop in MCAP. She doesn't come out twice a week in interviews and try and spin news, when there's nothing to report. She's set out the goals of developing the GHP, and shes tunnel focused on delivering on that, even if its at the expense of the share price and near term valuation
I too think we're on the brink of game changing news, and if so, it could take the market by surprise. From what's been portrayed so far, I've really built this up as something generational that could change my life, with a lot of "ifs" and "buts" currently attached. Time for Naheed to replicate those thoughts and deliver the news we want.
In extreme layman terms, when looking at a CAPEX of $1.5-$2B, it does make your mind wonder the sheer overall valuation of this. It's on a scale and level that a tiny company like Oracle Power shouldn't be anywhere near. But we are, the idea, and the drive to develop and bring it to life, all started with our board.
