Yes, I think he is being particularly opaque about the KK sale, judging by the auditor's opinion. Also there is still no detail at all about how they propose to fund TGK to progress the pre-contruction activities at the Kola assets, assuming that this is the course they plan to take.
The "important milestone" of the first significant net profit is misleading as well. Eurasia showed a £7.17m profit for 2025, but that does not mean the business made £7.17m of cash. Most of the profit came from an £8.47m foreign exchange gain. This is an accounting gain caused by exchange-rate movements, mainly linked to the rouble. It is not the same as selling more product or receiving more cash.
If you take out the 2025 foreign exchange gain, Eurasia would actually have made a loss of about £1.25m before tax. It's largely a reversal from 2024, when Eurasia suffered a £6.39m foreign exchange loss
The cash position tells the same story. Cash fell from £3.68m at the end of 2024 to £2.54m at the end of 2025. This happened even though the company raised about US$4m from a placing during the year. So without that placing, the cash position would have looked much weaker. However, EUA did also hold £3.30m of platinum concentrate inventory at year end, which they should be able to convert into cash as required.
