Mixed thoughts16 Feb 2021 20:50
Busy board today, just caught up. I'm in two minds. I kind of knew we'd need more cash to cover everything. I am surprised we still had Β£4m in the bank prior to this raise. We can do a lot with Β£8m.
I was expecting land to be purchased around June time. I am going to take this as a positive. No added warrants, only 7.9% dilution and in safe hands.
As the RNS says, this raise was conducted quickly and prompted by Jim. That makes me think we are close to signing a deal on a processing plant and Mark is finalising the deposit that needs to be paid to secure it. As I mentioned, Mark has stated his focus is on securing a plant. Once we have a plant secured, I think everything will fall into place. Mark can go to the government and get them involved with a CPO for the 5% of the land. I therefore think land purchase will be sooner in the next 6-8 weeks and then we can get financing sorted for the processing plant.
