I would say NPV is a fair bit over $1bn after CBS2 is added, and hopefully the vanadium price starts rising... 1bn GBP more like IMO... If I'm right, and we assume that the funding for FEED and main capex gets confirmed, fair value should be at 20% of NPV I would say. That's £200M, assume 600M shares makes 33p per share. Once FID happens (late 2026?) we should be at 50% of NPV, so that's £500m, assume 1bn shares after equity capex issue, that's 50p share price. If we end up in 2028/9 in full production, vanadium prices are at $10-12 and we're making £200m after tax, we could easily have a £1.5bn cap and with 1bn shares in issue, a £1.50 share price (and possibly a 6-7p+ divi)...
Just my view, no advice etc.
