Simms, forever living in a dream world.
I keep crunching numbers that could be miles off regarding what price the future dividends could be. Let's say the shareprice is around 30p once la India is in full swing, a 5% yield would be 1.5p. Let's say there will still be 3bn shares, that's about $60m cost to the company if they pay out 1.5p per annum. Free cash flow of 100,000oz a year with $3,300 margin would give us $330,000m, minus $60m leaves us $270m per annum. Could be miles off but I think dividends could be decent given the amount held by the board/drachs/candy. 1.5p per share would give me £45k per year which would be amazing.
I wrote this a while ago in my notes page. Since then, I've looked around only a little. Mineros S.A had circa $200m operating cash flow and paid $29m out in dividends. They have done a dividend for many many years. Thor explorations paid out similar last year, maybe a little more.
