Northman1, to answer your questions :
Just to check I'm not being thick here, is this RNS of a placing basically saying the placing is to repay the loan from YA that we only took out last month?
Yes : The Placing monies will be used by the Company to pay down £1,500,000 of the YA II PN Ltd and Riverfort Global Opportunities PCC Limited loan facility.
I'm assuming we're no longer going to draw the other 1.5 million they offered us either in that case?
I really don't think they will, BOD seems to be against borrowing from YA : "We recognise that the placing price is significantly below historic share price levels and, whilst we did consider forms of pre-emptive issues to Shareholders which unfortunately haven't been possible within the timeframe, believe, having considered all factors, that this best positions the Company to exploit the value of our asset base as we proceed with our well-defined strategy. "
Am I right in think Brockham ending early has freed up some money that can now be diverted to Balcombe so don't need the other 1.5 million?
I believe Angus has enough cash in the bank to fund Brockham & Balcombe:
