Placing etc7 Feb 2023 09:28
The placing is the cheapest form of a share issue assuming it’s discounted and not fully underwritten (guaranteed buyers) but ultimately, after broker and other costs, coming trading day, the underlying SP is adjusted on first day dealing. usd 6.5m raised less cost so perhaps SP diluted by 30% already for this. The key question is what will be derived from drilling and profitability to the company and shareholders? If really successful, the sky is the limit but “if” doesn’t guarantee the outcome…. let’s hope it all goes to plan as Mr Buck and the US parent will want pay back for the large commitment. Hoping to see this rise high over the next 3 months…and maybe 6p isn’t unrealistic? Thoughts welcomed…..
